It's even more amazing that you felt so mad about it that you both felt the need to post your anger; about the fact that the raid itself happened, and about how lame a raid you thought it was to boot anyway.

Suggested improvements to the game can be put in the Technical forum. I don't think we need it though, I mean hell you guys are so busy preparing a refound that we don't have much in the way of our raids.

Portugal Raided!

Postby Spartzerium » Sun Mar 18, 2012 10:32 pm

The Black Hawks successfully captured the region Portugal last major update, with the much appreciated support of The New Inquisition.

TBH troops involved:
Spartzerium
Tramiar
Jakker
HawkRawr

Congrats to all!




Shoutout to the former delegate, Aldonin, who resigned as Portugal's delegate yesterday. That definitely shortened the mission!

In related news Portugal is still firmly under the control of The Black Hawks with much appreciated support given by The New Inquisition and The Kingdom of Denmark, despite a FRUDL liberation attempt at the minor update. 13 defenders find themselves booted once more.

Too good apparently, you're back to piling. :eyebrow:

Well that raid just got way more boring, typical and artless fast.

Why do you care? You couldn't lib it when you only needed five. At that point, it doesn't really matter if we have 5 or 15.

Hahahah, thanks Bri. You wonder why I get mad at you.

So if we had no chance to lib it at 5, why do you need all those people?

You're making assumptions based on one update alone? Are you serious?

Oh come on, we're 13 endorsements ahead. If you time it well, train your troops, recruit, and work together with other groups, that's a walk in the park. Don't blame us for using every resource available to us just because you aren't using yours effectively.

Also technically, there's a native with 9 endos, so it's even easier if you wanted to lib with him as delegate. If this is piling and you're complaining this raid is now boring, which means you are questioning your ability to liberate it, UDL should simply quit the liberation business.

Hahahah, even if you could do this, you'd need to contact every raider group in the game to do it. :lol2:
