For example, I know personally LaF some leadership has always stressed that members be "ready". That means having troops, turrets, tanks, SDI, etc. in case they get hit. Not just tree hugging with large amounts of offiense and no defense. Grow your countries, yes. Get land fat, yes. But be prepared.
They weren't. So some biggies were killed pretty quick and easy.
SOL has been around a long time. Heck, I started with them back in the day under Clowns with Guns just before they went out on their own. Even those guys had leaders that stressed that.
So if they weren't and some lower player went med-evil on their arse, guess what? To me it was "suck it up baby you asked for it". But some cried boo hoo poor poor me. Yea, you know it happens. Happens in each alliance. There's always the ones that got pissed off cause they got spanked by some player.
So, yes it was interesting SoF went up against not one but two alliances. Both of which have past proven records of being hellishly good at war prep and warring. But also showed a weakness in being prepared for the worse. So yea, SoF may have been beaten (but from the news, not out of it) and some may say SoF lost, the question is:
Did they? Morally did they prove a point? It's a game of war. Alliances and pacts. Not a game of who can farm the most "land bots" and get to the top. So they took two contenders for locking in top spots for "networth" and put them in to the "nope not this set" category.
Been playing this game far too long having stopped and started several times. It's always been about war. Mucking up someone's country. That hasn't changed.
SOL and LaF fought well. So did SoF. Dog collar (its spiked and a gift from Ruthie) off to all three and their members.
