Skynet called on me with my ~200 NS and I answered the call without noticing/caring their solider count was 10k more than mine, because I knew there would be more goons to simply overwhelm them.

There are now 4 of us on them (1 they declared on, 3 of us who answered Skynet's call).

Skynet knows.

One of our Stupid Newbies got wardecced by some moron. Now they're fighting three of us. We've already knocked out their entire air force and navy.

You could be doing this within days of joining.

i eyeballed half the first page and then looked at their website. All I care about is according to this thing the liberty bell is currently held by "trumpland" and I need to know what will it take to steal this fucker like carmen sandiego?

if it's at all possible i'd consider trying to build a nation wholly bent on the sole purpose of stealing national treasures from the obvious hosed up cranks who are heavily into the game

that and this whole thing looks arcane as gently caress and I dunno if it's worth chunking time into

Some noob rear end pubby declared war on me and while he had a navy, my air force and army were both far superior. That's before another new goon, then two, then three piled on his rear end. We are now basically using him as a loot pinata until his alliance calls in and apologizes with offers of reparations. Especially big offers, seeing as they were looking to cut a deal with us before said idiot wardecced me.

Also, play the baseball. Free money even in war time.

it's much simpler than it appears, especially with the goon guides that are now linked in the OP!

You steal treasures by beating the nation who has the treasure in a war.
This is made a lot easier with 8 goons on a target at the same time.

GOONS gov has been hard at work, we're centralizing automation, the alliance overview, and etc.
We're all working on getting all the guides and relevant information onto an easy to read wiki so that some of the confusion around old guides being pinned in the discord channels goes away.

I have been working on pretty websites to watch everything you do.

For a moment there I thought that third meter said ��gay�� and was super stoked.

Now I�m just disappointed.

Jumped on an officer of an enemy alliance right before he was beiged by another goon, he won't be able to rebuild before more goons are allowed to declare war against him.

Stomping pubs is fun and all but I wish the actual game was less shallow.

Will it look for posts in certain channels of, "I'm gay" or will there be a command like, !theygay <nation ID> and Skynet calls out that particular goon for accolades?

Also the target I mentioned earlier I got a blockade and air superiority on, and after losing a ground war and what looks like other goon activity, they're now almost equal to my military (and now ~10k less soldiers than 2 of the goons attacking) which I'm getting excited about.

I think GOON as it is now has existed for like three months or something? So not yet if my understanding is correct. There are many comfortable fash assholes to bash that don't see it coming because they've been top dog for years.
