Definitely impressive! Nice work taking 28 regions in a single update, very nice. Now, we have to clean up the big mess you made...

We've detagged large numbers of regions in one update before, though obviously not this many.

Of course not, because this many has never been done before.

To put this in a broader context...Tramiar almost ran out of puppets.

We cleared the WA happenings the other day, that's for sure. Also if you want to get an idea for how close together the regions we took were, watch the WA happenings right now. You'll see the regions we took on them as our puppets lose delegacy.

I did the same :hug: They missed another one of mine. But raiding is so easy! Defending and detagging sure seem tougher :roll:

I think they managed to detag 10 or 11. They failed on... the two we ejected them... then three or four they missed on... so they were unable to even make attempts on about half the regions.

Uhm, three hours ago, for example.

We also did defences on our own on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday.
One yesterday, but it was called off after a careful assessment of the situation.

FRA has been running the vast majority of its missions on its own for the last three months (including all the defences - we spot them, move our troops and banject without assistance in nearly all the cases ... well, we fail too, of course :P).
We work with UDL on large liberations, obviously.

If you have any other questions, you are welcome to ask. :)

EDIT: oh, didn't notice this was the wrong thread. :P

You just don't hear us shouting our achievements at everyone. We just like to silently and stealthy get on with the job at hand, which is ensuring the protection and safety of founderless regions.

I don't need the defender mumbo jumbo :P

I was actually curious, because I haven't heard of the FRA defending on its own at all when I raid for other regions. There used to be a time when people worried about the FRA and talked about it stopping raids. That just hasn't been the case lately from what I've seen and heard from the world of R/D.

Also, about the "You just don't hear us shouting our achievements at everyone.", I recall the FRA being much like the UDL in terms of how it publicized defences when it had a working FA sector. Or maybe the issue is with the achievements... I'm not sure :P
