No wonder you made him look like a liar. Sun_Tzu is not daft and would have been a great HC mentor to you If you listen to him.

I'm basically only in this for the metagame; actual gameplay interests me very little. My 'style' of HC'ing is ignorant of statistics (which don't interest me) and couldn't run a long-term war if I tried.

In fairness admitting your faults does take a bit of balls. Fair play, No flamming nessesary. I would also like to say Your HR/Member managements skills this round are far superior to CarDi this round. Sacking most of the orbit boys was just plain ****ing dumb Apprime.

For all my weaknesses though, I have different strengths. My organisational skills are pretty hot (I'd have maybe made a good admin HC back in the day, so long as I kept out of anything more serious) and my ability to read people is also fairly strong. I have a reasonable understanding of politics too, which in the current game environment is, I feel, just as useful as knowing how to do military properly.
LordN quit after an argument with myself over a couple of things. And the decision to end the nap with newdawn obviously wouldn't have sat well with his oldschool gameplan (as he's suggested). Our 'styles' simply clashed, which is to be expected. As much as I'd have failed as an HC 20-30 rounds ago, I'm evidently competent enough to HC today. And yes, I'm fully aware that says more about how crap the game is than how good I am :P
Tzu will be able to explain all this and my/other newschool HC failings in much more detail, but atm he's keeping his mouth shut because he's worried he'd offend me if he went public with what he thought about the whole situation.
And I love him for it! <3

I am going to be rather frank...
Sun_Tzu and lordn are 2 clued up Seasoned Veterans and have Superior Military/command and Politics skills than yourself.
No "oldskool/newskool" bullsh*t is required.
You basically told Sun_tzu / Lordn **** yous two I know better. When this round would have been a good oppourtunity to get time served (or at least on the way) in HCing... not 1 but 2 fine mentors to get you on the way.
The problem with breaking your word is You can end up in the same predictament as apprime. Where if they are in a dominent postion there will be a counterblock against them... They Go from being a "superpower" ally to a flak ally.
