Eh, there is little profit or reason to sabotaging/assassinating.... other then war or grief...
Thieves is based on profits. It is what you would use during times of peace/non-aggression. If you get caught, you can make reparations to keep it quite and gain forgiveness.
Sabotage/Assassination is not used to further your own growth but only to delay/stop the growth of another.

Most of your problems in Illyriad will come in thieves, it is anonymous and if you are not active enough, untraceable, unless you catch and identify.
Set your ward to 500 on thieves and stack some thief defense and/or move your goods to a city with the thief defense.
Or if you do not have enough for whats being taken... spread it out... use it... give it to people who could use it.
EDIT: Of course... for future incursions... This is pretty public and the thief would stay away from this if they had any sense...

What this guy said... The very best thing to stop folks "farming" you... (although if there is anyone in this game who believes they are in that status, we need to create a forum for them)... is to get seeking or destructive runes. Bottom line is that you just need to speak out loudly and you WILL be heard.

Will do, Kilo. For the next few days, we'll try to have all our new members speed-build their mage towers and set up high-powered glyphs.

Personally I wouldn't discuss ways to defend yourselves against one kind of diplomats. Eventually the attacks will move onto another nuisance, such as sabotaging.
Make sure counter intelligence and interrogation is researched
Start building up your basic diplomats
I even build up scouts and spys, no one is allowed to know whats going in my town without my permisson.

takes notes.
please, keep posting the evolution of the situation.
maybe your member shall rush the mage tower and get some major runes up asap.
and if the culprit or the culprits is/are found, please, post as well.

It hurts me to say this, but another of our members has started suffering from constant thieving raids. The player "Klandestine" has been hit (so far) a total of eleven times, with the thieves clearing out whatever was not protected by her vaults.
The fact that there are players who would not only pick on newer players (who still have little or no way to protect themselves, especially as diplomats cannot be stationed at allied towns), but also on players who are in a training alliance, is something Illyria needs to come to terms with, and identify & eradicate such damaging attitudes.
It's a shame that these things happen on a daily basis here. Shame.

Thank you all for the feedback. We have indeed been collaborating with some friendly and interested parties, and are closer to discovering the attacker(s).
The attacks seem to have stopped for now, but as it is not possible (as of now) to position large-scale diplomatic forces in allied cities, I'm afraid our newer members might continue to suffer.
My thanks to Harry and Bel for their kind words, but I feel that involving inter-alliance politics would not be a benefit to anyone in FDU at this point.
If any more such attacks take place, we will let you know. If any of your members have faced similar attacks recently, please let us know, as this should help us pinpoint the attacker's location.
Best Regards.

Leun,it's not inter-alliance politics at all. I'm acting as an individual who was a member of FDU and an ally to them.CoK is not involved in this,so I see no inter-alliance problem. I believe I can say the same for Harry.
