I would say that there is a contradiction in terms of what is implied. It is pretty much a contradiction imo
Look, NUTS sent a small squad of 5-7 members to coordinate attacks against a small tribe of good players.
Do you see where I'm going with this?
The leadership set up four (or five, not sure if I can count :icon_confused: ) claims lists for these players to claim from, and assigned a time for attacks to land.
Have you ever been involved in war planning?

As the claims on players are filled, more players will be added. Until we are ready for the first launch.
Everyone needs to be aware these are not noobs, they know all the tricks in the book. When you noble one of them, your defensive support needs to land within the next second, cause there is a good chance that a few seconds later one of their nobles will be landing.
They have demonstrated the ability to snipe 150ms trains, so be prepared for that, make sure you have the troops with you noble to kill off the snipe.
From what I've heard they are mainly offensive players, so the supply of defense will not be that great.
Enjoy!
So you knew what we were like, you decide you still want to come after us.. You just lacked the experience to plan your war accordingly?

I especially like this part. Don't you, Tassies? :icon_biggrin:[/spoil]

I wouldn't mind seeing some maps up here with target information on them.
As Tassies has stated, we need to make this one count. Let's show people that we still have it. Let us make these attacks swift, effective, and well organized.[/spoil]
You didn't show anyone that you 'still had it'. Effective? No. Well organised? Not the worst... Damn, I'm generous with my compliments.
Ok, so lets run through this scenario again.
You want to run an op against a small tribe to create a strong front against your future enemies. I don't think that this was a good decision to begin with, but the decision was made so we have to go through with it. So how do you go through with it? Do you go big op or small ops? Small ops? error.
Big op, shock and awe, take out an influential player. You don't beat around the bush, pick off vills here and there and try to hold onto them. You don't send out a small portion of your tribe to perform this op, who lose troops, nobles and time (
this is where the slowing down part of my previous posts comes from) due to the (lack of) firepower which is spread between too many targets. You get the war over and done with to speed up expansion. You send the whole tribe and focus on one or two players. You give more of your tribe an opportunity to expand into new areas. You give more of your tribe an opportunity to attack and defend more front lines in the future to cancel out inactivity.
Am I just some sort of god, or do other people understand these situations as well?
A king with an impressive track record, I might add.

If anyone wonders why Chris/Balefire hates Nuts and now Bored so much, juch check the above link.
We dealt with our own internal issues, and emerged and merged with Bored.
Perhaps we should get back on topic...or whatever.
I've not talked about Bored, so I'm not sure where you got that from. :icon_rolleyes:
And thanks, I have a far more impressive track record than you and most of your tribe mates.
