This article has nothing to do with the official view of AEGIS, AA or China, but it probably is what we’re all thinking.
 
Literally every game like this has some players who complain that victory is impossible, the game is imbalanced, it’s all unfair, and they had better give up right now. I’ve been writing AEGIS articles for a while now, but I must admit I’ve been beat. There’s no better AEGIS propaganda than the comments of GUN players.
 
This is a Public Service Announcement and the only article I’ll ever write to help our enemies. SNAP OUT OF IT. To be a loser is defined as being someone who always or frequently loses. Therefore, a loser mentality is to believe you will always lose. Unless you get rid of this idea, you will never win, no matter how strong you are.


 
If you have two dogs in a fight – one believes it cannot lose,the other believes it cannot win – you don’t even need any more information. You know who’s going to win this fight.
 
The same principle implies in game. It’s honestly sad and depressing to see that the most powerful alliance in the world has convinced themselves that they have already lost. Their belief is true, because they believe it. They out number AEGIS 1.3-1 in damage, but AEGIS outnumbers them infinity-1 in will to win, because its not hard to beat zero.
 
Empires never last forever – give me one that has, and I’ll give you four times the money I’ve spent on VISA in this game. In most countries that could feed you for a year. In games like this, corruption scandals, infighting, or superior strategy turn the tide. No alliance will be on top forever. 
 
If the situation is desperate, don’t cry like a little about imbalance – do something, dammit! 14 ways GUN could have won the war:
 
1.     Supported RWs in India nad Russia to curtail China/Georgia bonuses. India alone did what all of GUN could not do: cut off China’s weapon
bonus for a day. They received no support.
2.     Signed NAP with B6
3.     Invited Indonesia
4.     Encouraged gold buying instead of making it a taboo – I would never have bought so much had it not been for government programs
to encourage this.
5.     Made an actual PR department
6.     Curtailed the French war effort in Spain
7.     Organized alliance OH – you guys are all in the same 4 timezones
8.     Determined alliance priority battles – 40% of GUN damage is wasted in drain RWs
9.     Opened drain RWs in AEGIS
10.  Encouraged splintering of Adeptes Astartes when conflicts occurred 2 weeks ago
11.  Abandoned Serbia-Bulgaria front and made NAP with Bulgaria
12.  Invaded Greece and went on the offensive – on the offensive, victory and defeat mean a lot less than on the defense, where losing
even one battle can be catastrophic.
13.  Whipped Ukraine into attacking Georgia.
14.  Pooled resources like Chinese MUs to build aircraft and tank factories – you make back your investment in 3 months.
 
NOBODY is going to castrate themselves just because of your whining, you must castrate us yourselves. Use your creativity, act, try everything until something works! The life and death of your countries is literally at stake. When we besiege a capital, we don’t want to see a sad whimper of resistance where a country is totally abandoned by its allies, but a devoted, committed fight of the whole alliance.

Personally, I would love to see Romania charge into Beijing and force each and every one of my countrymen to fight for our lives and defend our independence! The only thing that would kill that experience and make defending my motherland no fun is if we convinced ourselves that we had lost before the battle began. This is a game about world domination - one side is clever, works hard then wins, and then the other is clever, works hard, and turns things around. Some alliances are destroyed, others fragment, and new ones are made. And thats how it should be.
