Does this example sound correct? The US starts taking open land away from Canada though its SOI reach, Canada has oil that the US wants. Now Canada doesnt want to go to war with the US over some land it isnt using atm but would down the road. So Canada contacts its Allie Mexico to get Mexico to start SOIing land from the US. This of course pissed off the US and they threaten to attack Mexico. Mexico being a crafty country makes a new allie and now Cuba is SOIing lan from the US. Well the US wont stand for this, after all its cuba (low level faction), but as the US prepares to attack, they see Havana is Protected by the U.S.S.R (that city has been around for a long time). Well now a big faction war willl soon begin, the US gets British Mercs to help out and well the story just goes all wrong from there. The concept sounds interesting, but from what ive seen today and read in history, lands taken in any fashion usually lead to war. So how does this SOI really help the small empires. I guess we can hide in bigger factions lands now, so im a little confused how this helps players. Thanks in advance for some better insite to SOI. -------------------- Luther_Dorn Post Extras:       Black Private Reged: 04/17/06 Posts: 29 Re: SOI confuses me [Re: Luther_Dorn]       #130406 - 05/05/06 07:03 PM (12.210.1.185) Edit   Reply   Quote   Quick Reply   Canada needs to decide whether it would be economically more beneficial to stay and fight an extensive open-war/cold-war against the U.S., move outright to another open area of the world and develop more freely/easily there, or leave an outpost near the U.S. while creating a more extensive HQ somewhere else. Though, if Canada's ability to garrison 216 units (or some lesser but reasonable force) isn't threatened, then why worry about holding extra land not in use.

Now Canida has mass mob fee's cuase of SOI, and wishing they woulda started digging (mining) for oil a long time ago.<BR>Mexicans PO'd the U.S. by taking empty land(zones) from U.S. So U.S. pwd's Mexico before SOI is implemented. Which also has massive MOB fee's!<BR>Miami's SOI forced Cuba's mass MOB Monday when SOI was emplimented. Same as the rest, there screwed by mass MOB fee's! Not to mention Cuba is UnFactioned and has a bunch of dumbarses running around, because of one of the all time very exciting Updates brought onto the planet.<BR>The rest of the story is cancelled out by the, before mentioned circumstances.<BR><BR>Soooo (I) Canada just sit's there paying MOB fee's because they are two lvls below the U.S. and can't fight them. U.S. sits there laffing at'em for that very reason.<BR><BR>Gotta go, troops have landed! -------------------- Gimmie Back MY Bullets! -LS Post Extras:       Majistics Sergeant Reged: 06/10/05 Posts: 158 Re: SOI confuses me [Re: Majistics]       #130439 - 05/06/06 07:32 AM (24.74.46.123) Edit   Reply   Quote   Quick Reply   and wtf doesn't my br work???? -------------------- Gimmie Back MY Bullets! -LS Post Extras:       Sintares Captain Reged: 07/07/02 Posts: 922 Re: SOI confuses me [Re: Majistics]       #130444 - 05/06/06 10:21 AM (81.77.193.229) Edit   Reply   Quote   Quick Reply   They don't seem to work on this forum, though for other tags you would use the [ bracket not the standard < bracket.
