I’m a South African who has been playing this game for a number of years.

I was never really thrilled about the use of elephants in the game, but didn’t get sensitive about it due to the historical aspect of the game and the introduction of different troops used through the ages...

I do however take exception to the introduction of the war rhino card...

I personally work very closely with conservationists and get first hand information regarding the fight against rhino poaching and the dreadful impact it is making on the species. I have been fortunate enough to see these animals in the wild, and have felt huge loss in finding out that a female rhino, who I saw everyday for a week during a visit to a reserve, was poached for her horn...leaving behind a calf...also knowing that the poached female was pregnant at the time made the loss so much worse...

I challenge you, Nexon, to donate ALL the money you have made from the sale of the rhino cards to the Save the Rhino foundation (and maybe some extra as I’m not sure how many users purchase cards these days...?)

Every bit helps in the fight against this senseless poaching. Help make a difference.

Um,anyway,the war rhinos sucks. Bought and tried. Load of bs. I don't know but seems like this thing is on its last leg. It's no longer fun. When the fun stops,so does my spending. Ok,rant over. Ktksbai.

Last leg? Beg to differ.... I think for the first time Nexon has got the balance right. We just won a hard fought war with Iranians and was super fun. No cheat attacks and we were lucky to be the last man standing. We are having fun for sure :)

keep up the good work Katza.

You should inform your friends that rhinos being endangered is almost completely the fault of conservationist. It's a misconception that their horns are like elephant ivory, they are actually made of cartilage and will grow back like a finger nail if trimmed down. There are people currently waiting to flood the market with humanely obtained trimmed rhino horns but cant because they would have to sell them illegally. The best way to end poaching is to make the sale of rhino horns legal

I'm supporting this act. Specifically talking about our Javan rhinoceros which are near to extinct (and they will extinct, sad).
Poaching has been justified to fulfill market demands for these rhinos horns since they're used in medicine industry.
Same as the whales. I'm against any violence act to animals and animal testing. I even let my animals roam around my city 😆
This will be a good move, Nexon please consider this.
Donate to rhinos!

Exactly right about the fingernail comparison but really the fault lies with mis-informed people who think it's a medicine or potion to cure things. The killing will stop when the demand stops. I bite my nails but I doubt it will make me live longer or cure cancer!

yeah, what is with the disregard for the history recently?
war rhinos arent even loosely based on history, its just fantasy. and i will mention again the cold war era jamaican russian and taiwanese ports offering ww2 era japanese planes

King Crimson education is always good but if the market becomes saturated with cheap rhino horns poaching will no longer be profitable. I also think that their taboo nature is in part why its thought to have mystical powers
