As I've heard the story told in GC, Myr fought in the original NC-BANE battle because the player getting pushed around was a tiny ~NS~ newb and one of her students. That doesn't seem terribly unreasonable.

There was no tiny ~NS~ newb getting pushed around.

You are wrong, as was Sloter. The war started over a player of mine that had troops next to his city. I sent my troops to surround his city to protect him from a retaliation siege. When this lie was being spread during the war I and many others who had been contacted by BANE leadership with the accusation, asked for proof of this accusation. None was ever produced. 

BTW, thanks for thinking I have 500k troops. 

This is a blatant lie Myr, you rotated blockades on Sirrazer yourself. Trying a new tactic as i seem to remember it being said.  As for "pushing" around your player I disagree. We did sov around him, though at 135  pop (at the time) what would a player of that size use sov for, they could not afford it. To this day that player has still not claimed any sovereignty at all.  So what was the point in the end, we only had 2 large armies left after tourney which you knew from the heavy diploing undertaken by NC in the weeks preceding it (well electro missed the cav army of hyo). 

As for the sov, I had rescinded it, i do not know why it didnt work, instead of a follow up mail it was a declaration instead.  Your gunboat diplomacy in relation to dealing with people will be your undoing. Also NS players heavily supplied NC with res in the war (we watched the speed vans moving in and out of their towns) and also received diplo's from the Nightbringers as well. 

As for retaliation siege? You havin' a laugh or what? Why would anyone siege someone plonked on the map at random and a newb to boot, stop spinning the facts and get it right. You used that excuse as a means to go to war with a weakened alliance, which is par for the course for NC.  NC were offered the chance to go to war with us prior to the tourney, which they did not, refer to GC logs for veirficication.  

SB stated that BANE is full of mercernaries implying that we are all mad troop producers, this is not the case in those days only the people that held the rank of BANE and BANELING and above were troop makers. The rest were support. You guys continually bang on about the lack of razed cities by bane, you must have missed all the forced exodus's of electro and sir bradly which amounted to most of them away from buildings and forests. If BANE was doing that badly, then why did we have 5 cities on NC doorstep that they could not get rid of? 

You reap what you sow and all the alliances that are against you is a testament that a lot of the community of Illy are really just fed up with the lot of you and how you conduct yourselves.
