From: Rosa Bautista Saavedra Mallea, President of Bolivia

If the Alliance between you, Colombia, and Chile goes ahead, Brazil has threatened war with you, and we in Bolivia are against such a war. We suggest that you should not sign this pact or let any such pact take place, and if you do and a war starts, expect us to remain nuetral.

(ooc:I hope you know Brazil is Socialist)

To: Ecuadorian Government
From: Rosa Bautista Saavedra Mallea, President of Bolivia

Let me state once again that Bolivia is nuetral on this matter and is not a part of your alliance. We will not join any side any war between Ecuador and her allies and Brazil.

Telegram From Chaim Weizmann to Ecuador

We have heard of a recent pact of South American Nations against Communism, we would like to join this pact and from what we have been able to gather Ecuador is behind this pact, we would gladly join if that is you recognised and accepted us.

To: Ecuadorian Government
From: Rosa Bautista Saavedra Mallea, President of Bolivia

We accept your offer to help us create an airforce. We will start recruiting men for you to train next month.

Give some stats on your "Battlecruiser" I think you mean light cruiser but i'm not sure you have even are tech level high enough for that. actually you aren't even listed in the Economics thread.

My guess is that your about Tech Level 3ish which is too small and not advanced enough to build Battlecruisers on its own. And seriously what the hell would Ecuador want with Madigascar anyway? you are way to small of a nation to even consider imperialism. Especially when you have to go either through both the panama and the Suez canal or around the southern tips of Africa and South America just to get to your damn colony.

OOC: your not welcome here.


and besides your "sniper forces" i mean seriously dude wtf? light infantry tactics don't just happen like that. Accuracy is fine, snipers are fine but whole battalions that travel in a group together? Seeing more than a sniper and a spotter together is rare enough. You have just proved you know jack shit about light infantry tactics.


Do you know what the US army's doctorine for responding to snipers is?

"FIRE MISSION, FIRE MISSION!!
WE HAVE A SNIPER SOMEWHERE WITHIN WB123456 (thats a 100 meter grid square)
