Futbol, look up the actual war scores between the alliances, and you will see that I am right. This is taken directly from the new intel site, Grepolife.
So you can see, Thermopylae hasn't even taken 700 cities from the teams that currently make up the coalition over the course of the entire server, let alone the 2160 against the coalition that they claim. And that 650 includes cities taken from Imperials when Thermopylae were receiving support from REPO and HEROES.
Let's see what your leaders actually did:
- Mayhem/IA absorbed the remains of The Exiles, after promising ITM that they would help attack The Exiles.
- Cherry-picked the biggest and most active players from their 3 teams to form Thermopylae, while telling the rest to go away and find somewhere else.
- Continue to hug HEROES and REPO, the 2nd and 3rd teams on the server.
I don't really see anything spectacularly clever there: recruit lots of players, betray an ally, chuck anyone not quite up to your standards, and hug the biggest competitors. Yes, leadership in general isn't easy. But I can't see anything that Thermo leadership have done that is deserving of the acclaim you want us to give them.
Dodging the hard questions as usual. You said you haven't lost any important cities in the last month, but that raises a couple of issues:
- You have already proven the "sour grapes" mindset - anything that you fail at can't have been important or good anyways.
- You don't care about the cities belonging to some of your teammates.
Claiming that losses are "irrelevant" or "unimportant" isn't fooling anyone, Futbol. Anyone who has been even vaguely following events in this world knows that you do nothing on here except for lie and run smear campaigns, and as such you have become somewhat of a joke among the coalition's members.
