World War III: Alot of people take on Amerigo over slaves, IIRC.
World War IV: GDODAD Conflict?

Ive been here since January, but my first nation was a really weird spelling name and i forgot how to spell it....and it got deleted. :oops:

Something like Imsogoatwatchi.

There was the Tordoran wars which dragged out for 5 or 6 at least threads, it might have been more.

I think my civil war will be another one for the books, 4 threads, 5 million casualties and counting. It's over Elves. Obviously... :roll:

WWIV: GDODAD Wars; sometime in March -- Russian Forces, Imperial Forces, Pure Evil, COKELIA (sp?) take on the GDODAD.

Melkor Wars: Turned into a bitchfest in the end every time they restarted. *sigh*

ADK-RF Wars: Wars and bitchfests, although you were around then.

One Ring Conflict: Elven concentration camps set up somewhere, war between elven nations and anti-elves (Melkor and Menelmacar face off!)

All Elves War: Melkor invades All Elves (sometime in early March); large war follows (another Menelmacar and Melkor face off!)

Well, it didn't start out over Elves. At first it was over the tyrant that took over. Then a bunch of Elven nations came in to save the oppressed non-humand, so...yeah...

Don't forget the Magic Crater Wars/Bitchfests. Those were hilarious.

Of course it looks like the Tordoran wars are going to start up again which could be a real big nasty mess.

has anyone heard of the former nation of Sythia? he was a HUGE invader. his region was the Imperial Empire. he invaded 8 regions successfully...(which is nothing now because I have 13) but at the time it was pretty huge. he had a lot of enemies and I was one of his few allies. tell me if you remember him.

That's nothing. I remember back in may several major region crasher groups. (aka: League of Nations, Atlantic cable something.....)

We're talking about real wars, not stupid region-crash 'wars.' :roll:

And everyone knows the Empire of Power is probably the most powerful region crash alliance <not counting the RR Army or Pacific Army, they actually have legitimate purposes>.

November 26 -- the Greatest nation ever, Raevyn, (the very first nation with catgirls) founded.

Back then, we didn't have "elves" or "massive invincible space fleets" or "empires that span several galaxies." :x

well you and the fact another IDI naton, Belem wiped out Chairman Woes Airforce and Army leaving 500,000 dead excluding civlians and since there was three major cities wiped off the face of the earth and chairman Woe's death Camps, throw in the loseses of the previous Tordoran wars, I say that would put the death toll of the all Tordoran wars all together at 7 million beganing to end give or take a few thosend.

Yes, I have seen everything, and I have repressed it all! :D

It was nice way back when, but there was a time between "the good ol' days" and "the time of the moderators" that I like to call "OMFG WHY DON'T THE BOARDS EVER FREAKING WORK :evil:"

That time is when most of the "veterans" (or their scientific name, Oldbius veteranus) got sick of NS and left. :|
