I think Clint is being excessively kind (maybe even cunning) by listing his
nation. I try to work out what nation my enemies are playing since people
have different playing styles. If I can ping a player name to a nation, I
can make guesses on how the nation will play, and then make counter-moves.
Not that they work in practice, but the theory sounds good to me.
Ah I see. Could you perhaps explain to me what my playing style is then
?
You supported NG even when it was a losing cause. Lots of huge SG armies
have gone down in falls for very little gain. If you were more 'its very man
for himself' you might have sailed a huge army or two down into south or
north harad to take me out (since I will make new boats eventually and sail
past the expected broken bridge), but you were saying 'I'll support you' and
moved your armies towards NG. In short you are a nice bloke to have backing
someone up, but (like stags) you are too nice a person to cause fear into
the enemy (now someone in our side is one mean person who scares even his
own side, ie he is the sort of person who says 'give me money or I spend in
agents and rip it out of your capital '. No guesses who that is).
last turn I moved my army east since the side asked me too (they wanted to
cover you moving down the road into QA area). I had little doubt that your
army that bashed my army up would continue to hang around where it is (I had
it down for moving north a few squares actually).
