War Thread III

[Skeezer]

After being downhit for 5k/20k acres (quick land grab) I uphit someone blind today and took 14k acres. Plenty left for a good fort Back to the top10

[Karhedron]

Karhedron VS Vax

He was about 25ranks, 50k nw higher than my ikkle 3 day old kd...

First war back in solo after like 3/4 years out of the game, hoping it's gonna be a good one... hate warring elves though!

[supergus2]

I hit someone blind today too. I forgot the leadername, but I recognize the realm name from the other games.

moi 275k-ish unforted vs target 350k-ish

Took about 5k acres first strike. Could've done more damage but someone stole like 80% of my war chest yesterday. To my target: if you are reading this, watch out! I'll be taking more land as soon as i have my turns back!

[xMarkusx]

hahah... im only playing because someone hit me when i was sooooooo low and not playing... now i am an actually this is kind of fun fighting at the loooowwww bottom.... kind of limits what you and the other can do... plus you always have the option of tything and shooting almost even with your opponent.... .hahahaha been warring for over a week now.... fun stuff

[Alcon]

Me (24th) vs Grovian (17th) before I burned his markets (21st) when I declared.

[Dux]

Hit Drago...

Me 700k
Him 850k

[Drago]

Good hit, but I hope I had a good enough retal. We will see.

[Karhedron]

Karhedron vs Load iaido

He had about a 75k nw advantage (250k vs 325k)

He had too much scum for his own good, but i hit FAR too many fogs for my liking.

Mebbe I can get up these ranks before the age end...

[Iaido]

sorry Karhedron, i would like to war you, but i am going to have to take a rain check. too many things going on irl right now. i may be gone from canon for a week or so, but i will try to get back as soon as i can. i'll shoot you a scribe when i am back.

[Karhedron]

Damnit.. wouldn't d/s as much land if'n ah'd known i was gonna get to keep it all and didn't have a counterstrike to worry about... ah well.

Mebbe catch yas in a couple o'weeks eh iaido?

[Old Crow]

I think that may have been me I got hit by someone who said they got down hit so they blind hit me. there was no scout.
i thought i would try solo out so i could see what really works best for defence cuz i had been gone for so long. I set up one kind of troop and a few of everything else, then did not attack and waited to to see what would happen when i got hit. for a week nothing happened and i was wondering if anyone was playing solo.

The scribe i got was like being hit by a car they person rolling down the window and saying "i got hit by a bus so i hit you at random"
LOL

Not even sure if it was any of you though but who ever it was got past my troops with ease. i did not think it would be that easy. maybe i set up wrong or something

Does it work diffrent in Solo than in Guilds as far as troops go?
I was also trying out Goblin

ohh well i'll figure it out, better here than in Guilds where there counting on me.

[Alcon]

Was hit by quickdraw while I was still wrapping up my last war... Oh well, happens all the time. Think he had a little less land than I did to begin with, not now. I burned and sorced him a bit as a retal, we'll see what happens.

[MooMooCow]

nm

[Karhedron]

Karhedron vs Serendipity

They were still in a war in theory, but not in practice. The kingdom was obviously building after what looks like a very successful war...

Yas shouldn't have taken so much land in that one, bud. Woulda had more chance to hold off this one.

[Alcon]

Now I remember why I quit this game. If you'll scroll up a whopping 2 posts... you'll see I was declared on a whole 1 day ago. I spent my full turns burning and pling him, then I spent 1 day fighting back for my lands and was barely back at what I had less than 48 hours ago. You obviously didn't take the extra 2 seconds to read the posts. I can't fight 3 wars back to back without a break. Good job in your land grab.

[Alcon]

Ahh, I can see where you might have been comfused a little, but still not sure how you deduced that I was building after a very succesfull war. My account name and ruler name are different and I didn't specify that in this thread although it is in the last closed thread. Still doesn't excuse you for hitting me while I'm in a war that is, well was, definately ongoing.

[Karhedron]

I've only been in solo this age since after this war thread was created, so i had no idea about the name...

And as i said in the scribe: 5k quarries and an opponent wiped out to 60k nw says to me someone is building...

If I was mistaken, then bad hit by me, but I'm loathe not to trust my suspicions.

I'll stop hitting if that's what you want, and give you some of your land back if i still had most of it but... I generally work on lotsa wars, lotsa small gains...

[Alcon]

Well good luck guys, I can see nothing's changed in this game when someone can come in right after the tide of war turns and proclaim to everyone that the war you're in is over. Seeing as how I remebered, a war is over when both parties agree who are... INVOLVED in the war. Not when someone wants to get a piece of the land you worked your butt off to earn. Guess this game will continue to shrink with people playing who have that kind of attitude. I thought I'd try and give it one more chance. That maybe it had changed.

[Karhedron]

Dude, if ya gonna have a hissy fit, talk to me and we'll work out getting you ya land back.

Rather that than shrink this game further. No, seriously.

But truth be told, the idea wars are over based purely on agreements between players is a load of bs.

In all the years of this game i remember, player after player (and guild after guild) has always used the end of wars as cover for building. It's an accepted part of the game that people will take advantage of this fact... and as far as i remember it was accepted if you got caught out doing this: tough shit.

Best thing you can do is fight lots of wars for small gains. Longest i've spent building this age is the first 4 days when i was building this kd to start with.

And as for the game shrinking: easily as much a cause of the shrinking of this game as anything else, is the amount whinging people do.

WaaWaa.

Either fight back in any way you can (build up and sorc me? Use a shed load of CSs? Are these concepts dead now?) Or admit your loss, build back up and come after me later this age or the start of next. I'll even use a -real- obvious kingdom name for ya, k?

I've been absent for some 3 years and the only thing i can see as comparable to the shrinking of the community is the growth of the whining... Go figure.

[xMarkusx]

IM at war with Bubba... and this is day 2 he sorced me and immediately sent this to me....

yeah im done...later fag,,,enjoy my land...this age sux

Does this look like a peace offering to you. And in order for there to be peace doesnt both sides have to agree to it... And do you think it should necessarily be given right after they sorced you...

I guess he had moved on and hit someone else btwn the time he sorced me and i hit, not sure really how since he sorced me last night and i hit this morning...

Please Let me know... does this really sound like peace... or perhaps he's done playin????

[~Maliki~]

someone sorce's me im attacking...get'em

[Iaido]

ok Karhedron, i'm back.

[Voice Aeneas]
