Kind of poetic isn't it?

Best of luck though, it's gotta be hard to keep a WAD with influence in a 800+ nation region. Kind of curious to see how the TBR leadership changes as well.

Interesting observation. The 'BRU' guys behind this thread viewtopic.php?f=12&t=335111 , which everyone had a chuckle as another 'rah rah anti TBR group!!!11!' somehow managed to get 10 pilers as soon this situation happened.

That was unexpected. :blink:

Well, who worked with Frak got his nations deleted. I'm in the green, I care about TBR but as long as Halcones plagues it I hate it.

Heh. Even in these moments The Black Riders can provide one good lesson for others to follow.

Now they've somehow managed to be got their pile in the lead through their point UnitedGermanRegions. :blink: It doesn't even seem to be organised by a defender op, the RMB is a mess while you'll expect professionals to make it classy.

What is going on? :shock:

Long time grudges and suppressed pressures of native vengeance has taken control now. Funny thing to watch.

Logic of the R/D. Expression of it. I wonder how many native RPers get their first experience in GP today...

Amusing, certainly. It seems that, at this rate, TBR will fall to all the anti-TBR groups afterall.

Fingers crossed, anyway.

Indeed, I must say I', impressed that non-defenders can actually do better work than them, and now we see what TBR's reputation made, all natives are scrambling for The Black Riders so they can claim victory against the region that plagued them for 3 years. Pretty damn amazing.

Many defenders aren't going to be fighting them directly like this. I can't speak for everyone in prticular, but its quite common that defenders don't directly raid raider groups. Some certainly do, but many don't.

Edit: That said, watching so many people not usually involved in military gameplay take what probably feels like sweet vengeance is quite interesting :P

There is no way there is not an organization behind this. This pile rivals that of what the best regions could pull off.. o.O

'Somebody' got their Liberate TBR proposal into quorum in less than a few hours. It is feasible that there, indeed, was a significant intake of people who are in it to win it.

However, there was a 'relatively' coordinated strike of about 13 early in this whole proceeding. It does seem there is a core organization of some sort that is creating a lot of the hullabaloo.

I think we should just leave the region for a new one. Only important thing is the RMB, the members we can easily telegram to move.

After all, these "raiders" or whatever wants us, TBR, to defend ourselves. Instead let's just go establish a new region and let them waste their time with the old one. The region, everyone knows, is not our identity and can be easily replaced. Going to restate, I don't think we should entertain these people and play into their hands, instead create a new region and carry on as nothing happened. After all, a found is the only guarantee, or closest there is to one, against being raided. If we keep the region we leave ourselves to be raided in the future.

no, it's just a feeding frenzy of natives uniting to "destroy' TBR. it's still our victory, shows how much of an effect we've had on the whole of NS.

Going to respond. WARP is my WA puppet. Anyway, that can be done regardless.

If we lose we may appear as fools. It is better to be smart. After all, this is diverting resources from Atheist Empire, which many people know. We may end up losing both. These "natives turned raiders" (because, as a victim of raiding a couple of times these "natives" are just as much raiders as us or those RP'ers that raided the GCR) are going to go crazy after TBR regardless of whether we waste our time on it as well. Let them look like fools piling on top of a carcass but we should be smart about our actions.
