All alliances have perma-sit accounts. Some use them as normal account: growing cities building armies, crafting things, making wars and tourny. Other use those perma-sit as cows, optimizing cities to just producing goods and gold.
Both ways are bad for the game (even if the latter is really worst because it permits to build some really uneven army).
I will welcome with Joy any rule change to drop really perma sitted account forever.

This made me laugh because of my own browser MMO strategy wargame experience. Illyriad is my third such game, after playing the other two for years each, and they make Illyriad look like a war training sandbox. War was literally nonstop. I'm still getting over the shock of widespread anti-bullying sentiment here as well.
I'm going to predict new powers arising in TBL. Younger alliances with limited growth opportunities in Elgea would probably give up a small foothold there if they had to, while developing a larger foothold in TBL comparative to the larger alliances there. I don't think alliances' player ratios will be the same on both continents.

Have fun out there. |
When you put off doing something more important until something less important gets done, I imagine that's the case.
Also, are factions even coming along? It seems like they'd be a relatively small portion of TBL, and yet we haven't really heard any news about them in months.

They did? Can you site a source for this? I just always assumed that this game is balanced for a single person controlling 6 accounts. I mean, what other excuse is there for perma-sitting? |
I asked GM Stormcrow in gc about the perma-sits and he said the rules regarding them will be fixed and are on a To Do list once BL and factions are completed.

I have a solution for this once the war is over.
