gecko Posted February 20, 2014 Report Share Posted February 20, 2014 Must be playing UAE. He lost 4 cities lastest RWE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dageraad Posted February 20, 2014 Report Share Posted February 20, 2014 Four cities in turn five? That's even beyond his level of incompetence. I do not think Spongebob is playing the UAE. That's either a complete mismanagement, someone who's very unlucky or a setup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coothunter Posted February 23, 2014 Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 UAE is not a setup, and is being played by somebody. He did attack me. As futile of an attack as it was, there are UAE troops on Saudi sand. They won't be there for long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dageraad Posted February 23, 2014 Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 Well, he then is very unlucky or very incompetent. But I must admit, countries like the UAE are very vulnerable to early 'assassination attempts", as it is almost impossible to defend against a concentrated attack without risking half the country.

brogan Posted February 23, 2014 Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 Too much near the border and its a huge border too, Saudi on the other hand has no valuable targets near UAE. It's almost unfair for poor UAE. Portugal faces a similar situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coothunter Posted February 23, 2014 Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 I think UAE is a very tough country to defend in this situation. He was also unlucky. He had to hope for SpongeBob to have Saudi Arabia, then he may have survived. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dageraad Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 Well, I reconstructed the entire AIC network to a less obvious construction, did a maximum LDB buid in all major cities and provinces, left a lot of speedbumps at convenient places and cut off easy access to the eastern part of the UAE by pincing through the "empty quarter". All for naught as he never entered the UAE. It took ten turns to conquer something of value in Saudi Arabia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thors Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 Saudi Arabia = sand trap. UAE is clearly at a geographic disadvantage. However the current results do indicate a lack of proper planning. A dozen years ago I won Victory with UAE, so as Dag also indicated; while at a disadvantage it's certainly not indefensible.

coothunter Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 I agree. It is not totally indefensible. I survived in my first game in Switzerland with 2 countries actively attacking me. Eventually, I ran out of food and could no longer fight. Switzerland is different than UAE, but with good planning, I think small countries can still be played effectively.
