	3rd Attempt at Public Announcement Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

well it seems the "die is cast" as nye so plainly put it, now it is time for me to chip in some thoughts on a definitive public announcement.

something like this...

---------------------------------

GoW Public Announcement


It is my dubious pleasure to announce to the world the steps will shall be taken by the Glory of War to fullfill it's military and political objectives in the short term. Our objective is like it has been with our valiant ally Neu Demogyptica, to destroy the nation of Spain due to the long-term threat it represents to the stability of Bob.

Unfortunately, Roleplay's treachery has been manifested once again, by way of the unlikely alliance with the Gathering Storm, an alliance which has seen these two teams coordinate their efforts to hinder our troops in battle.

In a cowardly act, Roleplay has gifted the cities of Santiago, Toledo, Bilbao and New Madrid to the Gathering Storm, with the hope that these cities should not fall into the hands of ND or GoW. Moreover, GS has explicitly threatened us that violation of their new borders in this cities will be considered a hostile act, notwithstanding that accepting these cities and hindering our progress was a hostile act in itself.

The gifting of cities, however, has not been one-sided. During the 10 BC turn, GS gifted the city of Inchon to Roleplay only to take it back the next turn. This transaction was initially undetected by both ND and GoW due to the nature of the turn order. It is our suspicion that this move was undertaken to speed the transfer of troops to a transportable location in the south of Stormian territory. This at the same time in which GoW was attempting to negotiate a peaceful middle ground in which our team would respect GS's possessions in Bob while at the same time GS's not hindering our progress.

It is obvioust that GS's has never had any peaceful intentions and that it will seek to establish a presence on Bob, regardless of past wrtitten agreements, signed in the name of the so-called "honor code" which they claim to uphold. Apparently GS is willing to violate deals and switch sides to its convenience despite appearing to be a team upholding a superior standard of decency and integrity.

GS's action has shown that this "honor code" exists only as a figment of their collective imagination, and as a now-useless propaganda tool to try and convince the world that their word is solid as a stone. In reality it's as thin as air and their skills as a team are only exceeded by their treachery and flagrant opportunism.

Thus, in order to ensure it's own survival, the Glory of War announces that no city gifted to the GS in bob will be recognized as legitimate Stormian population centers and will be captured and razed at will. Furthermore, any GS troops in southern Bob moved at any position considered hostile to our own movements or assisting Roleplay troops, will be engaged.

Should GS decide to violate the homeland of the Glory of War or Neu Demogyptica, we will consider this as an outright declaration of war between our three nations and we will take all necessary actions not only to ensure our survival, but to ensure that the GS has no chance of winning this game up to the point in forfeiting our own victory and sacrificing our nation for the sake of a military or diplomatic victory to an allied team.

This is GS's last chance to refrain from committing what in the long-run is ultimately suicide. We are prepared to give our nation away to ensure victory does not fall in GS's hands. The world is on our side. This is your last chance to ensure that the Gathering Storm become a name assosiated with honor and skill, or that synonymous with treachery and arrogance.

- The Glory of War will from now on consider any gifted city in Spain as Spanish and will engage any hostile forces in the battlefield regardless of nationality.

- Should GS ignore this manifesto, The Glory of War will take all steps necessary to ensure defeat for the Gathering Storm in this game.

- Should GS ignore this manifesto, The Glory of War declares a permanent embargo and a break in relationships with GS.


FOR DVICTORY IN THE END!

-Master Zen
Consul of Foreign Affairs for The Glory of War.

Note that I have mentioned GS violated written agreements, yet said nothing about the NAP specifically...

I would tack on to the third paragraph;

"GS has continued to harrass and sabataoge our war efforts since the beginning of the war and has left us no option but to defend ourselves from their malicious actions."

from ND:

quote: In the name of all Neu Demogipicans I Congratulate you to the actions and to the Words of you Manifesto! Let me asure you that ND will stand at your side as good as any possible in this war. We will defend your citys as they were ours and we will defend every troop of yours as it was our own. From this day on I consider us not only as brothers in arms but as brothers in blood. Whatever the GoW have to go throug hin this war we will assist you. Let us smite the evil forces of our enemys and feast upon their bones! Let the Glory of our united forces shine upon Borconia (Bob) Darekill Konsul of Neu Demogyptica

hopefully they won't be doubting us anymore

Just like to congratulate MZ & the rest of the team on the flame thread.

None of us went overboard or strayed into personal insults.



As we all know...GS are incredibly thin-skinned, and easily provoked. Bullies are often reduced to tears when the smaller kids stand up to them

Nothing we were going to say was ever going change their offensive strategy anyway.

Well done team.

We did make enemies though... I have a feeling some GSers are kinda pissed at me, but frankly, at least we had the balls to say what everyone else has wanted to say to them, has said so in private at them, but chicken-shitted out of saying in public...
