Now they're nuking and breaking portals because we dared to appeal to other small Fams for support.  And I risk my account being suspended by doing so.  Don't you see there's something wrong with that?

There shouldn't be any rules about how many allies you can have; nor how many naps you can make.

Big fams don't keep the rules, so why should I?

Round after round, its the same boring thing: Big fams nap each other and farm smaller fams.  When will it stop?

I'll tell you when.

Right now. 

Big fish eats little fish?  Haha.  Not this time.

lol update!!!

Attention, small fams who have pledge their support for Operation Piranha. 

It is a GO!

Now, if you haven't been one of the leaders with the guts to message me and indicate your support, it doesn't matter.  We forgive you, but only if you get in on the operation ASAP:

Operation Piranha:

Directives:

Step 1:  Explore your lowest NW attacker(s) into as many core systems of the Top 5 Fams now, and get portals building asap.

Step 2:  While portals are building, jump your lowest NW opper (he must have Sab portal or Create Portal Force Field).

Step 3:  20 ticks before your small attacker's (or attackers') portals are to be completed, SAB / CPFF as many of the Big Fam's portals as you can in the systems where your small attacker is portalling.  You should also jump your attacker's transports at this point, too.

Step 4:  At 6 ticks before your attackers portals are complete, jump your attacker's bombers (By this point, your oppers should have collected the PIs for the planets your attacker is going to attack).  At 5 ticks before portals are complete, jump your attackers figs.  At 3 tickst before d-day, jump his droids.

Step 5: If you have followed steps 1-4 correctly, when your little attacker's portals come in, he isn't so little anymore , and the worst your not-so-little-anymore attacker has to face on all of the planets in the Big Fam's systems are stationed forces.

Now, if we have a number of small fams doing this simple 5-step operation on the same Big fam, we can easily bite nice delicious chunks out of these Big fams' far-too-fat planet counts.

Yummy!

Big Fish tastes gooooooooood.

Lol, I guess this just gives the bigger families a better excuse to take planets from the smaller families then. : )

They do it anyway.

@xeno syndicated

if you would put the same effort in the growth of your own family like you do for your "Trying to take down Big-Family-Strat" your family would be a top ten family...

there are two reason why small families are small families:
1. low total activity
2. no teamwork

which category is your fam. belonging to?

btw. 2 rounds back I was in a fam. which was between rank 30 and 35 at this stage of the game an we made it into top 10 at the end and we had no mod...
we were even ranked nr. 1 in nw for a few ticks...

so stop to whine and play the game!

"there are two reason why small families are small families:

Neither.  Look.  We're small because we're getting farmed.  They set this up from beginning of round.  They ignored my NAP requests, except one fam which demanded 50 planets explored for them, knowing their allies would farm us anyway (and that was in mid year 4, when losing 50 planets would have kept us down the rest of the round)

Three of these top fams surround us, chorale us like sheep, and gobble up our explored planets. 

This is why we're small.

Focus on growing, lol?  Why, to feed these Top Fams more?  We're doing all of you a favor by fighting these farmers, refusing to take it anymore.

Join us.

"hit my laser traps"

Lol.  you mean OUR laser traps that you took from our bankers in our core
