Our Oceanic clan Wolf population has fallen off the map, so it seems like only the European and NA windows are making any progress right now.

I wonder what made CW Oceanic change flag..

Mercstar challenged us, and said they would drop. We stepped up to the challenge to the best of our ability. Thank you Jeirhart for your attempts at protecting the world, and I am truly grateful.

MS attacked us when Nox was at 93%, and when we all stopped dropping on it to fight them, we ended up losing all our progress from 2 hours of ghost drops. Quite frankly we need to make sure our attacks on our "captured" planets stay that way. If we know MS is gonna drop on one of our worlds and bring 72 people with them, then it won't matter if we have all our attention there, because not only do they outclass most of our 12 man teams, but they will always outnumber us since its not just Sword of Kentares that will drop with MS, and they can easily get 120 people all in group to drop until cease-fire.

Additionally: yes, MS can and will do generator rushes. I've seen them do it in 3 minutes. If they want a planet, they will take it.

Where is their batchall?

I would say we should rather give them boring ghost drops rather then lose our progress in the push into the FRR...

Nox was not lost because of Ghost Drops. We switched to defense when Nox was at 93% and had more attackers than defenders in queue. We did 1 game on Voralberg, then went back to Nox, then did another game on Voralberg, then went back to Nox. At all times, Nox had either an equal number of attackers and defenders, or we outnumbered them with attackers.

We lost Nox because at the time of the cease fire, there were 5 active games to hold territory, and Clan Wolf units lost 4 out of those 5.

This is especially important right now because if csj takes their FRR planet before we break through, we will once more be cut off. We absolutely need to take those planets.

Besides, if the Bears get too uppity, we can get them back next week. For now let's focus on breaking through

For the most part CSJ is no longer attacking FRR planets. It simply muddies the corridors to no benefit. There may be occasional outliers, but frankly most of the units seem to agree that allowing CW/CGB (the latter of which might open another DCMS corridor without having to fight through CSJ space) to finalize the push through FRR at this point benefits all of us, where as CSJ competing to take FRR planets does potentially more harm than good.

My prediction was right again. ;-)

My new prediction is that after this attack phase, if Smoke Jag does not take Altenmarkt during this attack phase, their target will be recalculated to Lothan. That will allow us to move forward again.

Unless there's an intervention, in which case things would presumably get better first.

We fight Kurita when we can (took Eguiless last time). If only we could make stable corridor of attack, we shall push at them with all our might. We think this is good for CSJ too.
