Attackwave in O:3

[Sol]

I think its some IK News or something, I won't respond seeing as other people might want in O3 isles after doing nothing...pfft...To be honest, I think only DIGG and us have a right to any of those O3 isles.

Got a news story? Send me a message with the details.

[Natmus]

You could send a polite reply with the general outline of the battle and the rough numbers involved. Also, you could spin the story to the fact that we are on top of events and will retake the isles and also the E|S isles that has lost fleets.

I think it's a good story to make wider known, especially when it's spun to our advantage.

[Sol]

Alright. If everyone agrees, I'll send the following message:

Hi,

Due to the fact that Morkin and DIGG are still currently coordinating attacks against E|S, I cannot release too many details to the public. You are correct, there have been massive attacks launched towards my isles in Ocean 3. All E|S members in O3 foolishly decided to suicide all their fleets in an attempt try to take all my isles. While they have succeeded in taking 3 of my 5 isles, my main still stands thanks to the support of DIGG and Morkin members. The magnitude of their failure has forced them to send attacks to my main isle all the way from other oceans. They have not succeeded.

Although I have lost some isles, this has been a paper victory for E|S who are suffering heavily in O3 due to continuous and sustained assault from Allied Digg/Morkin forces. These minor isle losses only delay the inevitable destruction of E|S in O3, but the huge losses they have taken to remove these isles from my possesion will make this removal easier for the Digg/Morkin forces

For those curious IK players, here are some estimates:

E|S has lost over 5,000 LWS and 23,000 spears just by attacking me. Total loss estimates for E|S are much greater.

The largest fleet to hit my isles included 500 LWS and 2500 Spears from an isle on another ocean. These were all destroyed as soon as the attack hit.

[Starshatter]

Sounds good. Angel been pretty helpful to me in O12 (and vice versa!)

[Warliter]

Although I have lost some isles, this has been a major victory for Morkin and DIGG. Both alliances are in the process of removing E|S from O3 since they have nothing left there.

Ahhh sounds much better. I'll add that.

I gotta admit, it's an excellent message you've come up with. What's the word now...erm..."kudos" ? (no idea what it stands for, but seem to recall having heard it used in contexts like these...Speaking English is often such a contextual affair)

[Sol]

lol I don't know what "kudos" means either...Spanish is my first language. Where I come from...I suppose we would say "chido" for cool...or something...

You're welcome

[Sol]

It's official, I am now out of O3. Good luck to the rest of you still fighting there.

[guinevere]

Are we still fighting there? I was of a mind to take back 3:41:21 from Honolulu_Baby but only if he's run out of coloships and stoners. I've already lost 2 colos and half a fleet to this island.

[Arminius]

Just list all the isles you've lost to E|S, and we'll get those back off them.

[guinevere]

This isle belonged to Phoenix and was taken by Sol. Then by Honolulu-baby and then by me and then by Honolulu-baby and then I tried again and Honlulu-baby dumped a load of stoners on it. Which is totally evil and something only we're allowed to do. Does that make it clearer.

So as might is right, I think it belongs to me.

[Sol]

Take it, also feel free to take my lost isles:

3:68:11
3:67:21
3:67:2
3:67:10
3:67:17

Yeah actually, I lost lost of isles, are we still getting those back?
