Start posting plans and targets.

I'm going to go for ooghak in oceans 1 and 11 ( i've posted on the internal forums to see if anyone wants to share but if not i'll go for all 9 isles ive noticed near me so far )

[Shendemiar]

I could devour couple O1 isles, if it comes to that.

[Clausewitz]

o14 has JRo (aka Turdmugg) with 21 isles here.

He's been building nothing but LWS since kae talked him into quitting the game, and is ready for his suicide and exit.

I guess me or Ruku are going to have to give him a poke to get him to launch his load, then just mop up the remains... unless someone in the older oceans is willing to present themselves as a target to him, and give me and Ruku the chance for a few fleetsteals...

[Natmus]

In general I think we should do the following:

Adopt a wait-and-see policy. Given the recent battledamage the Orcs have suffered, I doubt they have much to hit us with.

Only attack those who attack us first. Make it known in public that we didn't want this war, and all Orcs that abstain from participating will not get hit.

Fleetsave as much as possible against incoming suicide attacks. Ryan's idea about fleetstealing the suicide fleets is very good.

Looks like rewop is the only one in o42 (yay, at least there is 1!). Aside from that, just some small presence in o34 from trouble, Turdmugg, and Makari. Looks like a support role if this conflict comes to pass. I'm ready either way.

[McGoogus]

o6 and o7 don't have many Orcs. Thank God cause I plan on being fairly wasted this whole weekend, starting tomorrow night.

I like the wait and see policy, but during that time we should plan for an offensive as well.

Ideally it should be someone with weakish islands so there are fleets to steal, I'd happily volunteer myself (O1) but he'd need fleets well over 1k in size to have anything return.

;D

(That's even if I fleet save!)

Makari has several isles near my main power bases, I can help knock him down if needed.

That ought to be me. I have plenty of barely defended isles in oceans 1 and 22, so if we can make him attack those isles from O4 they should be sure steals.
I can launch some fake attacks from these isles the minute real actions kicks off.

That sounds good to me. If anything does come of all this and this plan comes into play, remind me that I'll owe you one

[Clausewitz]

We'll make sure he gets paid in real estate, ruku, though I suspect he would prefer his show-of-gratitude in cats

Our problem, ruku, is that if we present ourselves right away as the target of his suicide, we won't have much time to fleetsave - we could be offline for an hour and come back to see a few thousand LWS have crashed on our shores (he has 7k total, just hit that number YESTERDAY), and incapacitated some of our offensive fleets.

So lay low until this kicks off, and see where Turdmugg launches. As long as he launches to targets outside o14, we'll have plenty of time to scorch/colo (depending on if there's a fleet returning) those isles.

[Arminius]

With any luck they fall for the old Morkin tactic of taking out the admins, in which case there'll be plenty of opportunities for you guys to fleet-steal.

[Ruku]

Lol, i'm sure I will pay him anyway I can (nothing kinky though, lets keep it in the game Natmus )

I don't really feel like provoking this fella in the slightest so im pretty sure I can do the laying low thing pretty well untill the word go, hehe. I kind of want to avoid having a 7k fleet crush me with almost zero notice.

[kae]

We've got some action on o32 as well. I've also got some decent fleets in o34 that can be used.
