I wonder how much time Pete Hegseth spends every day scribbling down ideas for "badass" names in a composition notebook like a bored teenager daydreaming about starting a rock band.
Yeah it's declaring a surprise war. You also don't give a reason for denouncing (which you have to do 10 turns before you're allowed to declare a formal war, assuming no cassus belli)
Ah I see the difference is every war in stellaris is a "surprise war" you just have to declare why so you can establish exit end goals. For example stealing relic or purging the xenon from the galaxy (on side still alive)
The number of times I've declared war on countries to reduce the lag in paradox games is astounding. My reasoning may be meta but at least it makes sense.
They'll probably try to argue the war powers act "clock" resets with the name change: look, totally different operation, we have another 90 days... And if they get away with it, expect a new stupid name regularly.

I'd take Sledge over Trump as a president any day. Hell, he was the president in The Sentinel.

Very appropriate since idiots tend to hurt themselves with it.

Worse. In Stellaris you have to declare a reason for war.

In civ a casus belli is only important diplomatically
I should check out of life for a few weeks of civ again…

So you can just attack at anytime without a checkbox saying why?

Don't bring a sledge hammer to a drone fight. 😜
They might as well call it: Operation Completely Out Of Touch.
