What's funny is that this is exactly how Nephy's last region went down in flames. Everyone started accusing each other of being spies, and then it collapsed.

My reaction to Milograd: :bow:

My reaction to The Eternal Knights: :rofl:

My actual meaningful segment of this post to avoid modly wrath: Seriously, y'all, stop talking. Your war declaration against Lazarus is the most absurd, exaggerated, arrogant -- and not in the endearing way! -- bluster I've seen in... well, ever. I'm not even a little bit worried that it will amount to anything, but should you manage to actually take any kind of meaningful action against Lazarus I, for one, am with the Reds. The People's Republic isn't going to be threatened by a n00bstravaganza on my watch. Save the over the top big league belligerence for those of us who do it with pizzazz!

Please calm down. We've declared ourselves purely invaders and wish to participate in Raider Unity.

Sorry, that window of opportunity expired when you declared hostility against The Black Riders, started messing with their raids, and declared yourselves, and I quote (for dramatic effect, since that will be obvious from the quotation marks): "the new Defenders. We are Raiders that fight Raiders; let the downfall of The Black Riders begin!" You were also busy plotting (hilariously, I'm sure!) a coup d'etat against Balder, a treaty ally of raider Osiris and multiple imperialist regions.

I have no idea if other raiders will include you in raider unity, but I never will.

Desperate Nephmir Sells Out TEK Mission Statement

Postby Lazarene Gazette » Mon Mar 10, 2014 5:53 am

Breaking News: TEK "Pained" to "Join Raider Unity"

King Nephmir wrote:News Update

As you can all see, the region has been erupting into chaos after the recent attack from Lazarus.

I have began to repair the damages. In the mean time, I will be increasing the amount of foreign aid within the region itself. I will import aid from other regions until we are stable enough to move on our own. Once the region has got back on track, we will return to our neutral imperialist stance. For now, it brings me great pain to say that we will have to change our stance to "Invader", and participate in Raider Unity. Hopefully we will not have to remain this way for long.

That is all.

Nephmir's solution to his problems is to sell his region and his supposed mission statement out to invaders.

Struggle City, The Eternal Knights - Well, rock bottom has been smashed.

The Eternal Knights, a region standing for the destruction of Gameplay as we know it, has aligned itself under the banner of "joining raider unity" in a desperate attempt to rebuild itself following the incidents that occurred yesterday morning. In need of foreign resources and help to stand on its feet, the brave King Nephmir has surrendered all his values and aspirations in the face of his latest obstacle, with the sole hope of keeping power over a region that has all but fallen into total chaos. Nephmir continues to try to cure the disease of incompetence with more incompetence, but this won't save him from the consequences of his own foolishness.

The King's statement, by admitting that the turn to raiderism is a temporary maneuver to garner foreign resources for their own sake, reveals that Nephmir, in fact, does not stand by his mission statement. When the going got tough, the man who sought to "change Gameplay" sold his organization out, banned his soldiers, and tried to write himself into a script that he's sought to abolish. "To make matters worse, it is highly unlikely that any serious raider organization will help these posers out," remarked one raider, anonymously, before adding, "Raider unity isn't the act that Nephmir thinks it is. He's going to be disappointed when he's laughed at even harder."

With this rejection in mind, the PRL wonders how long it'll take for Nephmir to put the neutral tag back on and come running to defenders. The future of The Eternal Knights has been sold out to foreign invader groups, who are now faced with the choice of perpetuating Nephmir's melancholy or putting him, his region, and the lie of The Eternal Knights out of its own misery.

Stay tuned for more fun and fury.

TL;DR: "We aren't going to stay raider, but while we are utterly screwed at the moment we would appreciate it if you would consider us raider and treat us as fellow raiders until we are prepared to re-tag your tag raids some more."

Very realpolitik. Much shrewd. :palm:

The real tragedy here is that this all had to happen after the Defender awards.

It is clear that TEK is now solidifying its major success over the weak divisions of the LLA! I'm so glad we're winning. :bow: to Nephmir.

I wonder... Did Nephmir really expect this to work out?
I was only in it for the experience and the learning, the chance of taking down TBR was just a bonus.
