Quick question.

Postby Valkmar » Mon Dec 03, 2012 4:35 pm

I've heard or seen little invader activity, and was wondering if there are any invader clans or splinter cells left? Just a quick question that requires a quick answer, thanks.

What do you mean, 'no invader activity'?
Never underestimate the power of cynicism, pessimism and negativity to prevent terrible things from happening. Only idealists try to build the future on a mountain of bodies.

The Thing to Remember About NationStates is that it is an almost entirely social game - fundamentally, you have no power beyond your own ability to convince people to go along with your ideas. In that sense, even the most dictatorial region is fundamentally democratic.

Usually the Invaders brag about taking regions, and LWU looks like it's dead, Defenders used to make lots of complaints. Just the stuff i used to see isn't here anymore.

*Points to TBR and TBH threads*

It's been a very long time, I think, since invaders threatened much worth threatening.

As far as I know, LWU is pretty much dead... though I could be wrong.

TBR is the big one now, and TBH I believe is fairly close behind. Who else? A lot of smaller ones, probably. I haven't seen much activity from any raider groups except TBR in quite a while.

Oh. I think I've heard of Wasabi once... Nothing compared to when TBR did that thing with Hippiedom, Ohio, Hell, and all those other regions. Not to mention Whitereach a few weeks ago. I haven't personally witnessed a TBH raid in... months.

Hippiedom
Hell

We obviously need better PR.

Brotherhood of Malice
TNI
Europeia

TNI/Europeia don't publiscize their raids as much as TBR/TBH. They also don't raid as much, but they raid pretty often

In this forum there is a thread called Basics of Military Gameplay. Read it.
