Do not post offers for alliance. Do not post offers for aid. Do not post absolutely anything that is IC related. This is entirely a thread for commentary on the above thread.

Nope, you have failed at this game because this thread, along with a few others, has shown you only want to win at this game. You can’t win at this game. You can only have a fun time. And those numbers were wanked, when you do the math for them. That was my two cents and I’m off.

Please show me proof, please, that the numbers are wanked.


EDIT: The war was over, anyways. He said on MSN something like that his navy is dead and he can't fight. So you guys should just get out unless you magically were in that conversation

Please show me proof, please, that the numbers are wanked.

The proof has already been shown to you. You need over five hundred carriers to use those 50,000 thousand fighters. The numbers are wanked because nobody in their right mind would send or even have six hundred carriers in their navy as they costs lots of money to up keep. I’m not a navy man, but having six hundred carriers is a dumb move.

Here is some math for you. Look at the Nimitz class (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nimitz_class_aircraft_carrier) carrier. Look at the up keep cost and the number of plane it can have. Average Annual Operating Cost: US$160 million and up to 90 planes.

First let’s divide 50,000 fighter with the highest number one Nimitz can carry. You’ll get 555.55555555555555555555555555556, which I’ll round up to 556 Nimitz class carrier. That’s a huge number. Moving on to the operating cost for one year. 160000000 times 556 equals 88960000000. 88.96 billion each year and that is counting the payment of the crews and etc.

Here comes the crew numbers of a single Nimitz, which is 3,200 ships company and 2,500 air wing. Times them both by 556 and you’ll get 1,779,200 ships company & 1,390,000 air wing. My god think of the cost to pay, feed, and etc for those people.

That’s just nuts for anybody to send at a nation. The cost would be nuts to your nation in sending over maybe two thousand ships against a small nation. I said over two thousand because you’ll need to have over a large transports to carry your marines and thousands of other transports for the tanks and APC. Lastly, you’ll need several thousand supply ships to aid this monster fleet.

And there is something else that I find wanked in those numbers, your marines don’t have support forces to aid them as they land and move inwards. You need your support forces or also known as logistics to aid you in any war.

WHY? I’m in the OOC thread because I’m dealing with this on the OOC view of things. And I saw that you last posted in the war thread, which I don’t believe until GR say he did that. But because it wasn’t done on the forum, it will be see as bad form.

Now, I'm off to do some role-playing. Please learn that you can't win at this game and treat people the way you would like to be treated.

That doesn't give you the right to over-wank numbers just so he " could do extra work" whatever the heck that means.
