  1. The British Empire and the French Republic, linked together in their cause and in their need, will defend to the death their native soil, aiding each other like good comrades to the utmost of their strength. Even though large tracts of Europe and many old and famous States have fallen or may fall into the grip of the Gestapo and all the odious apparatus of Nazi rule, we shall not flag or fail. We shall go on to the end, we shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our Island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender, and even if, which I do not for a moment believe, this Island or a large part of it were subjugated and starving, then our Empire beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the British Fleet, would carry on the struggle, until, in God's good time, the New World, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and the liberation of the old. -Winston Churchill, 1940
  2. ....ok obliterati. You took our strongest 3 islands unopposed. You can muster 2, maybe 3 full port battle forces against our 1. You can attack multiple ports at once. You and I both know that unless the pirates continue to play badly, and make poir strategic decisions in port battles we do muster some kind of force in...the purates have the numbers and the superior ships to steamroll us....like you did with the northern isles. Its not defeatism to say that we will fight you to the last port, then continue fighting you when only our capital still stands. Winston Churchill once made an entire speech saying the same thing back in WWII. I find it curious you make fun of us for those reasons when, in reality, youve described the pirate attittude instead. We are at least attempting to preserve our ports. You are giving yours up and running as far away as you can get from your enemy.
