United We Stand

It is with no small amount of pride that I stand here to make an announcement on behalf of the Arthran. The last few days have been rife with rumours, threats and panic from all sides. However, after much discussion, we have made our decision.

Government from various Kantus client worlds have issued "suggestions" that we remove certain members from our governments, that we bow to some concession of defeat, that we do this thing or that thing in order to avoid a war. To them, I have this to say:

Not a chance.

We stand as one today. We stand united, and we stand tall. On behalf of the Internet Superheroes, the RnR Alliance, and the Jedi, I declare war on the Snow Ravens.

Should we fall in battle, we shall consider it a fitting end. Should our planets be burned to the core, we shall consider it a magnificent celebration of our independence.

We are coming, and pain is coming with us.

Signed,

Chey Guevara, the Voice of Arthran

Arthran Unity
Given current events, we of Arthran have decided to stand strong in unity and declare a de facto MDP for the remainder of the current crisis. Until the crisis is resolved, any attack on any Arthran alliance is an attack on ALL Arthran alliances. Thank you for your time.

The Arthranian's Burden

Take up the Arthranian's burden--
Send forth the best ye breed--
Go bind your sons to exile
To serve your factions' need;
To wait in heavy harness,
On fluttered folk and wild--
Your new-caught, sullen peoples,
Half-Kantus and half-child.

Take up the Arthranian's burden--
In patience to abide,
To veil the threat of terror
And check the show of pride;
By open speech and simple,
An hundred times made plain
To seek another's profit,
And work another's gain.

Take up the Arthranian's burden--
The savage wars of peace--
Fill full the mouth of Famine
And bid the sickness cease;
And when your goal is nearest
The end for others sought,
Watch sloth and heathen Folly
Bring all your hopes to nought.

Take up the Arthranian's burden--
No tawdry rule of kings,
But toil of serf and sweeper--
The tale of common things.
The ports ye shall not enter,
The roads ye shall not tread,
Go mark them with your living,
And mark them with your dead.

Take up the Arthranian's burden--
And reap his old reward:
The blame of those ye better,
The hate of those ye guard--
The cry of hosts ye humour
(Ah, slowly!) toward the light:--
"Why brought he us from bondage,
Our loved Kantus night?"

Take up the Arthranian's burden--
Ye dare not stoop to less--
Nor call too loud on Freedom
To cloke your weariness;
By all ye cry or whisper,
By all ye leave or do,
The silent, sullen peoples
Shall weigh your gods and you.

Take up the Arthranian's burden--
Have done with childish days--
The lightly proferred laurel,
The easy, ungrudged praise.
Comes now, to search your manhood
Through all the thankless years
Cold, edged with dear-bought wisdom,
The judgment of your peers!


tl;dr IS hereby acknowledges the state of war with The Snow Ravens

Considering the fact that you can't hit 90% of Snow Ravens, I'd consider this a purely academic statement

You're certainly welcome to try, I suppose. At the most you'll be picking through our leftovers.

We actually thought SR was more balanced than that. You have NO ONE in middle ranges for us to hit. Learn proper war etiquette gosh.
