I'm sending:
Troops: Ordinary: 20 Whiskerpillers (A burrowing caterpillar. No attacks but loves eating resources)
Subtotal: 20
Special: 8 toady bloysters (slow slug-like creatures that love shiny things. Works well in water) 8 Cannering drigibugs (strange insects that fly with rubber balloons. They make bomb-rocks and throw them at foes.) 4 fiery bulborb (Strange bulborbs that are on fire.)
Subtotal:20
Elite: None
Total: 40
War Machines: Starter tank.
Now for the first assult in the game!

Well, actually you're a bit late. One of the newer member already beat you there.

Wha-wha-what? I think this may be the first time I got attacked ever, in any game; this or SMKW. I must say I'm shocked; did I do something to offend you? Either way, I'll get to work on drumming up plans after I get working on the raymond vs. Meowzer battle.

Yup. Early vehicle rush. I was a chump for not ironing out the starter problems...any insecurity in the rules and people are going to take advantage of it.

If there are any problems I'll do this without the war machine.

Still, this is ridiculous! 2 battles within the first week? I'm not saying that it's bad but usually people weren't so quick to start destroying one another. I suppose lots of conflict is a good thing though as more battling keeps more interest. I suppose...

I don't know, people getting hampered this early could just discourage them. Either way, it's too late...
Should've allowed 60 days of defenses or something...
Edit: And, yeah, this is probably just a random attack.

Makajawan, I know you didn't do anything to offend Nobertk. I am not flattering you, but only stating the fact when I say you have been an attentive mod and a very understanding person. I can't even say I even seen you be snippy with any members before. This attack is no doubt a tactical decision by Nobertk, not some vengeful payback.
Anyways, I think I shall send troops.

Lowered the amount of troops I'm sending.

Turns out Norbert's tank can't actually fire anything aside from basic bullets (He never specified caliber, so I'm guessing nothing special). Still, I mean, he could have almost as easily researched cannon ammo and it would be worse.
See why I persisted on scouting for versions 1-3?
Hachi's troops are allowed since Norbert directly told him he'd attack his ally.

Yeah, saw that, one of the reasons I didn't cry about the tank.
The other reason is that there was nothing illegal about it and I'm gonna take what's coming to me, but still.

Oh, sure, there isn't anything illegal about it; I'm just kicking myself for not compensating for the lack of scouting. New players need to be able to start with, say, 60-80 days of defenses and encouraged to start with an anti-vehicle weapon.

Hmm perhaps then I shouldn't have started with a comical "nerf gun" defense system...
