Lets just hope that that is true. The unfortunate thing is that any offensive against the RRA of the FPA would be met by full ADN resistance. Maybe we should consider helping the AA.

If you mean the Atlantic Alliance no. They have entered into a loose coalition to face off against the NPO along with the RRA, the urbanites, the Meritocracy and the South Pacific to name a few. We can't afford to let Franco's support be siphoned off griefing regions and mashing it up with the mouth breather from the Empire of Power or Harkinnen's circus.

The AA is winding down and they're of no help to anybody. The ADN is already celebrating their downfall . However, the ADN, while idealistically opposed to Franco's regime, has as yet to offer our enemies any real aid. A few of their nations showed up during the glitch - that invasion failed - end of story. And good god, I agree with Black, we ought to stay as far away from the WUF as we can.

Maybe some of these groups could be dangerous, but I've yet to see anything but talk. What we have here are enemies of varying degrees who don't really like each other much. If the ADN and the AA and the RRA and the PA all got together and presented a unified front we might be in trouble, but it doesn't seem likely.

Luckily for the Pacific, all these invasion alliances are only interested in one thing. Getting their power hungry hands on the delegacy. This will always stop them from joining together as a united front. All they want is power, and they can't get this by banding together.

I have looked in to the ADN and they could probably down Francos if they wanted to, God forbid. As for the AA and the RRA working together, that is news. the RRA is part of the ADN. I'm sure Vazquez (president of the ADN) would love to know that!

Their alliances are only nominal. In the end, the only thing they are concerned with is personal glory. This is why their alliances fail; instead of working together, they just try to use each other.

Agreed, and this is why the NPO has the strategic edge. We have to maintain that edge, I believe, and be sure that enough discord is presented to prevent them allying.
Our defense is strong, but I think we should be sure that our defense has a sharp edge to it and is - if not overtly aggressive - passively aggressive to prevent problems before they begin.

I agree with most of the observations that have been posted within this thread. As a one time insider, I can attest that the leadership between alliances has been acrid (and that's being nice). As of late, the RRA leadership seem only to be taking actions that are politically correct and advantageous. During the aforementioned "glitch" the RRA leadership dragged their feet before taking action, and they only took action once the PA started complaining that they had not moved.
The last I heard, the PA (I guess they are the Pacific Freedom Forces or something) was becoming fragmented within itself. They acted on emotion more than anything else. I have also noticed on one of the bases (Radio Free Pacific) that they are cooking up some action (which means they are going to spam the hell out of us).
There is no way those loose coalitions will ever organize themselves. All the promises that the ADN made about helping the RRA and the PA free the Pacific were garbage. I predict that the ADN will fold very soon. While I agree that if those combined forces were to actually work together to usurp the NPO, I totally agree with Francos' comment as to what their eventual ends are going to be. In fact, if the unthinkable (and impossible) were to occur, the Pacific will be torn into several directions due to a major power struggle. Those alliances would move in, take the delegate seat, and then duke it out as to who would take over. You'd better believe that there would be no democratic process to determine the leadership of the Pacific. All I keep thinking about is when Francos went on his "vacation" and how the civil HQ was out of control for that short duration. When you remove the social control mechanisms from society and fail to address that, you are left with anarchy, pure and simple. That's the great promise of the subverters, and they are too blind to even see that.

That is very reassuring reply. It's good to feel safe in the region that you are in. Thanks for making me feel secure.

I find it rather interesting the people who are deemed to be 'idiots' are expelled by you, Francos. That is quite the democracy that you run there. Let's face it, you kick out anyone who you feel may be a threat to your power. I do give you credit in finding a loyal following of people who you have brainwashed into believing you know what is right for them. Bravo. Now you have kicked me out of the Pacific...and for what? I have yet to even receive a reason for my dismissal. What say you to that? Just be careful...you anger too many people, and even the small and stupid can organize against a common will.

Hi Savage. No, I'm not brainwashed. You however have greater issues than us at the moment. I suggest you work on your PR.
