Happy New Year to everyone,

TLDR text is coming, I hope you read:

As two days ago was my last day in office of the United States, I wanted to write a summary of what happened the past year. A lot of chapters will be opened, I will illuminate the dark rooms as much as I can from my perspective. There will be a clash of opinions undoubtedly, but I must remind you that this is a game and keep it civil as much as possible. I enjoy my time in public rooms these days, I’m retired from politics and do not hold any role in USA government.

I got invited to the game from Kaveh, a friend of mine from eDom/ions who I spent much time with him together and I have the utmost respect for him. He invited me to his community -he would start in Germany- but I wanted to start smth different. In the end he couldn’t play Eclesiar. For me, I always wanted to create a strong MU and that was my goal. The 6th January of 2024, me and Thracius established (on papers), the Steel Talons MU, which the members were counted on one hand. One of them was Imperator, known as Darth Vader in Eclesiar world. He was one the leaders of Serbia in the previous game, he was also very good friend of mine there and with his help we gathered some more people of his circle. Like mind, Kaan (Kojiro) was invited. He brought up Shiroe and ByBatu. This makes us 4 communities: Petros/Thracius, Darth’s, Shiroe’s and Bybatu’s. On the way, Shiroe lost hope on the game and Batu was banned for whatever reasons so his community decided to leave.

Chapter 1: Alpha
1.1 Alpha 4

On Zeus, I was playing together with Agui (curr. USA), Pristel (curr. not playing) and Zero (curr. Romania), all 3 friends from eD/s. The game was a lot different back then but the only thing I remember was fighting versus Calheta.

1.2 Alpha 5

Surprisingly, In Selene 2 teams joined: Ours & Safer’s. We were very strong, x2 the population of the 2nd country if I remember correctly and both teams co-existed peacefully for the greater good. There was a conspiracy against Selene, so we found ourselves fighting 1v5 war. After some time there was a change in diplo-relations: Demeter and Theia clashed, disbanding the 5-front-group. We were convinced to join the fight against Demeter, this was my first introduction to Kysely and Wolfstark. There was a lot of fighting, in game and outside due to our mindsets, Demeter group came from eSim and Theia/Selene from eDom. In the end, Selene coalition wiped utterly Demeter, as there was no comparison to organization. Theia annexed Demeter colonies, and Selene annexed Demeterian cores. Selene was the only nation to hold Nuclear Power at the time and we did drop nukes on Poseidon. In the end, they accused Selene of ruining the alpha5 stage even though they were the agressors. At this point, Shiroe decided not to play the game, leaving the Talon community with 3 groups.

Chapter 2: Beta

I do not recall exactly which members of the current US played in BETA, but we did enter the phase to test another gameplay: in Alpha4 we used communism, and it was effective for 3 people. In Alpha5 we used it aswell but we saw it was not very efficient for a bigger community (20+ people) if you do not use multis and slaves of course (that's why the communities which use Communism are multi/slave-abusers). So, we entered the Beta phase to test another economic way.  Again, our community was the most populated. Zero, which was planned to play in USA decided to invite his Romanian pals and go in Romania. We established relations with Farsen who was playing in Russia and sMar7 in Germany. We 4, fought Swedish (Demeter)-Lithuanian Pact for some time. After USA decided which production system is more efficient, we decided to stop the game. Later Lithuania claimed to win the server.

Chapter 3: The Game
3.1 Pre-WW1

Turks and Batu decided to go in Turkey and be separate state. The alliance was settled already with my long-time friends Zero and Batu. Meanwhile, my alpha4 arch-enemy, Calheta, approached us and we agreed to create a sub-division of The Steel Talons in Portugal: Main branch in US, sub-divisions in Turkey and Portugal. We also got approached by “Sheikh” Brane, the leader of Macedonia. We settled down and we created the first alliance in the game, initial members Turkey, USA, Romania, Portugal, Macedonia.

Before the start of the game, right after Beta closed, Darth and Gytka agreed a verbal NAP of USA-LT in start of game. Surprisingly, USA got sabotaged by a player named Begedis (RL Lithuanian, played in Lithuania BETA) who rushed to be XP CP the second day. This act was understood as an aggression from Lithuania, breaking their word on our verbal agreement while Gytka did not accept the accusations and said he is not responsible for him.

As everyone expanded, USA got back with expansion for 3-4 days until new elections. I got elected and started to expand fast. Our production system was non-existent, within the MU. Everyone was responsible for his production and progress and later, the MU would build supply-chain.

3.2 The Great War
3.2.1 The Start & Summary

The First global conflict. How did it start? Romania and Lithuania disagreed on the split of Ukraine, and this started a supply chain of DoWs:  quickly Bulgaria DoWed Romania and we were in disadvantage, that’s why the Turks and the Yanks got in the middle. Serbia decided to attack Hungary and for that reason Hungary asked USA for help. We informed Macedonia and they started expansion war over Serbia. Sweden, as rumors say, got order to attack Germany. The Germans (due to our partnership in BETA), asked help and we agreed on it. Clearly, we were outnumbered in the country of Rhine but after much time, effort, and supplies Germany got free and we pushed Sweden back to their cores. I came in contact with many people, my RL countrymen and organized a rebellion in Greece, pushing back the Committee above the Maritsa delta and eventually the States accomplished the only landing in Eclesiar so far in the city of Alexander’s sister, while our allies were walking inside Bulgarian cities. We offered France our help, to free from Lithuanian opressors in order to help their community grow and in the end I am very proud that France grew so much. I forgot to mention my link with Iran and Indonesia. We started talks for alliance when the war with China was waging, and we came in agreement to help eachother. When Iran and Indo join, the “4 country pack” was named to BOT [Brothers of Titans]. Shayan got SC spot and he lead our alliance to victory with help and planning from other officials.

3.2.2 Middle-War and First NAP talks

Middle war was Turkey leaving. Various reasons, one is they claimed that rest don’t help in Turkish battles. Also Germany lost hope, when they were semi-wiped, due to no supply-chain in their country, but I had faith to pull it out. That’s why I approached Harreki for a peace agreement: I offered him colonies. He clowned us back demanding Peru, and I took the decision to show no mercy due to his arrogance. Having lost all your colonies, and ask Peru? There is some nerve over there. That’s why Turkey and Romania marched inside Bulgaria.

Turkey leaving didn’t mean abandon USA and our interests. Turkey stick to USA and our decisions, Batu was member of USA HQ and there was no way to leave us back.

3.2.3 The final days of the war, Peace agreement & Nuclear program

We were winning in the most fronts: France all free & captured Norwich from Lithuania, they got pushed away from West Europe. Turkey and Romania exchanging cores of Bulgaria, Free Greece, wiped Serbia, semi-wiped Bosnia. We got stalement in Asia, since Indonesia lost Philippines & Australia and Iran won Pakistan (edited). Germany was Free and Slovenia was shifting to neutrality already. This was the time when the enemy could not breathe. They were already sick of each other, so we agreed to sit at a table to talk. I remember most of it, but particularly this yomama guy and ciro. On a climate of world prosperity, Shayan proposed to forget and not hold grudges. Little we knew that Bulgaria and Lithuania were already plotting for another war. Gytka was tryharding for peace, begging batu on PM to ditch USA and sign solo NAP. The issue was that Bulgaria could not offer anything in return. On cores, without infrastructure they demanded regions of our members and this was outrageous. I really didn’t care how Bulgaria would expand; I knew they would not expand on our back. After 3 days of negotiations, we agreed on a proposal and not forget that USA ditched their bases in Balkans in order for Romania to get bonuses of Ukraine. There was drama with MKD-BiH that’s why this front remained open.

Meanwhile, just one day before the NAP Agreement, USA finished MB5 so it was an achievement to be the first country with nuclear program.

3.2.4 The aftermath & the next day

It was very clear that Bulgaria was hurt. That’s why from the first day of the NAP they plotted against the States.

As we agreed on NAP talks, no grudges had to be kept, but did they? USA left BOT alliance declaring neutrality, we didn’t want the traditional allies, we believed in an alliance reshuffle: that’s why we came in contact with Japan to form alliance, but we were rejected. We proceed with approaching China and got rejected again. We had already agreements with Turkey and Macedonia prior to NAP Agreement, and we proceed with this formation but unfortunately due to tragical events, Turkey decided to quit the game. For that reason, we approached Slovenia and formed the current G3 alliance.

On the other side, Bulgaria approached Turkey, and they replied that without the States they don’t form anything: they proceed befriending Macedonia with “brotherhood pact” and already recruited Romania from “our side”. Together with Poland and Lithuania it was known from the very first days of NAP they would go these 3. At this point, while USA shrunken the ally circle for the greater good of the game, Bulgaria growed it just to revenge: as leaks with the famous screenshot from Kysely note that Gytka wants to “steal” countries from BOT and only revenge on USA. They never believed the alliance reshuffle unlike us, and we’ve been played like idiots.

3.3.1 German betrayal

Not much to say. These guys wanted regions, from ex-allies. Wanted to bully them and do them what Sweden did to them, so not way we gonna let this happen. The war ended in 2 days and there were personal attacks from German CP to my name for no reason. Idk why, many people see me in their dreams.

3.3.2 Pre-World War II

I can’t say much. It was a very peaceful period for USA, didn’t pay attention to Swedish and BiH wars, I lost 2 train days from acc due to inactivity, imagine how boring. Only one event happened this period: the nuking of Lithuania. I was not bound by no term not to do so, NAP was signed while “enemy” leaders knew USA had nuclear power. As Gytka didn’t kept his word with verbal NAP, dropping a bomb couldn’t make things different, but the funny part of the story is that Bulgaria became more angry than even Lithuania. Why? It was just an excuse to come after USA. Noone care for 2-3 Portugese nukes that dropped in Alytus. Noone cared for the actual bomb that really destroyed MB5 by Iran. They just wanted a cheap excuse to target USA. Why USA? Because we hold most 1st ranks. Because everyone wants the throne. This is the true reason and everything else is cheap propaganda from these weak players.

3.3.3 The frustration

They added me back in nap room and started flaming, of course I started trolling, this was really funny. Watching harreki to get mad for Lithuanian nuke more than Gytka. One of a kind.

3.3.4 The British Isles

Macedonia was pretty angry with Sweden DoW on them that they backed off (very issou), and we sorted out a plan to get UK from them. France and Portugal marched in the isles and took control from the Northmen successfully.

3.3.3 And it Begins

Yes. Chinese dethroned Kiseli and put Wolf in charge. What does this mean? Bulgaria=China. So, BFTE-Gauss ties were official, while G3 had core USA-SLO-MKD, partner FR-PT. They attempted landing in Mexico and Peru, but we defended and instantly dowed them. They (both alliances now) wanted to gangbang G3, what they did to SLO which were bound to NAP: so MKD with friendship ties and USA alone… That’s why they wanted Yakutsk, and Japan did not let them. The country of samurais worked for the balance of the game side with the G3 in this conflict. But unfortunately, as we can see Lithuanian multis hold PTO in Russia and block attacks. These guys will play JUST FOR ONCE FAIR?

Their best builder was banned with 160k pts of building progression. That equals to 2 Q5 Hospitals = 100 Hp.

3.3.4 Hypocrisy From The East

And… with more countries on their side… they still can’t win: The propaganda starts with personal articles and attacks on me (3), calling the alliance G33/G30 when their members are x2, they cry to admin for change and due to his lack of experience he falls for the blackmails and manipulation of Harreki. And he did it!!! Admin intervenes in the game and implements a change, favoring a side. First time in the chronicles of these kind of games (around 20 years), the dev listens to players and implements update the very next day without any notice. Very bad decision, lead for the exit of people in various countries: their progress of 3 months vanished in a day due to this poor decision.

X-mas event: As you saw/will see in Vlad article, a particular side climbed to the back of the other to benefit. They did not accept any ceasefire for the good of the days but looked again their “pocket” to benefit.

Let’s not forget: the update promoted to PTO countries and wage war from there. They instantly PTOed [for the illiterate (Hrrk), PTO: Power-Take off - is a tactic done by large population community from a country to take over the government of a smaller country by migrating citizens (called PTOers) from the larger country to the smaller country] Colombia in order to hurt USA economy.

In this chapter I will publicly say once again that Lithuania uses multi-accounts to boost production. In the same prism Bulgaria is using “communism” to exploit dead-accounts and have them as slaves to boost production. Very unfortunate that the administration is incapable to ban them and bring justice and fairness.

3.3.6 Croatian Betrayal

USA is the land of immigrants. We have many communities abroad: Spanish, Serbs, Macedonians, Greeks, Croats, etc… Manga came in USA from Iran, he asked for asylum, and we gave it to him, no reason not so. We accepted him in the country and he created a unit and a party and he told he will follow gov orders. Meanwhile he told me he can PTO Croatia anytime and wage war from there. I was telling him constantly that Croatia doesn’t need to be populated now because our ally Macedonia controls the region. Meanwhile the Croats (2-3 accs in Cro) were constantly opening RWs and Manga was hitting against our ally not to take BH. After Djeneral’s influence he betrayed his country and allied Gauss-block to gain 2 regions. We don’t need people who rat away, he left for good.

3.3.5 And we close this TLDR article, with the stats:



Sides in WW1:

BOT: USA-Romania-Germany-Turkey-Macedonia-Greece-Iran-Indonesia-France [10] (9)

WDHNY: Sweden-Lithuania-Slovenia-Bosnia-Serbia-Bulgaria-Poland-Lithuania-China-Japan-Australia (11)

Hungary was German partner, not affiliated with any block*



Sides in WW2:

G3+ASTRA: USA-Slovenia-Macedonia as G3, Bosnia-Greece-Portugal-France-Italy as G3 Partners, Iran-Indo-Japan-Arabia as ASTRA (12), (7) without the patners.

Gauss+HFTE: Sweden-Germany-Australia-China-Serbia as Gauss, Bulgaria-Lithuania-Romania-Poland-Korea as BFTE [11](10)

Hungary is German partner, not affiliated with any block*



PTO counts in WW2:

G3+ASTRA: Mexico-Peru-Chile (3) of which all are defensive.

Gauss+BFTE: Colombia-Ireland-Croatia-Iraq-Pakistan-Israel-South Africa-Russia, (8) of which only Russia could be tagged as defensive.

The partners are not core members. They are independent states that their interests allign with G3 alliance*


So in total the involved countries are:

Side 1: USA-Slovenia-Macedonia-Bosnia-Greece-Portugal-France-Italy-Iran-Indo-Japan-Arabia-Mexico-Peru-Chile (15) with 408 actives, 288 without the partners.


Side 2: Sweden-Germany-Australia-China-Serbia-Bulgaria-Lithuania-Romania-Poland-Korea-Colombia-Ireland-Croatia-Iraq-Pakistan-Israel-South Africa-Russia (18) with 383 actives.

 

And as closing question, I ask you

Who is the hypocrite and the manipulator?
