HAN B|B STARK Peace

Jejune, you are entitled to your opinion, but HAN, as the aggressor in this conflict is paying the price for that aggression.  It is immaterial as to whom joined in.   They thought they were going to take care of a weak target, took a calculated risk and failed.  There are penalties to pay when this happens.   If there were not repercussions,  every alliance would have incentive to attack another alliance and if they failed say "Hey, my bad" and skip out without penalty.

As for not settling in STARKs DoH, it was a consequence of their own actions.  STARK abandoned their LC stance and publicly stated that they would not impede alliances from settling outside of 10 squares.  HAN, showing that they were going to be aggressive,  was required to forfeit that option.  HAN didn't have to ask for peace, they didn't have to accept the terms once they did.  

I question larger accounts from outside alliances getting involved...make certain you don't try this tactic in my backyard and it might be time for broken land alliances to start uniting to take protective measures land claim or not...harsh terms..leave the old lands out dated play up north....we got faction play down here..we don't need corrupt play down here! go play amongst yourselves!

Certainly Not!...lol

The squabble you see here is what has been going on for months between the two leaders (it can be found in previous Illyriad Forum threads). Phoenixfire was indeed the initial aggressor and has, for just as many months been trolling Han, both militarily and diplomatically. I do not particularly care for Constantine's tack in response to the 24 hour a day baiting but it is understandable. I do, however, enjoy watching the likes of ex-Stomps members coming up against it,. Bicker on!

Please, we just settled this war, why stir up a new one in the forums.   If there were issues in the past, leave them in the  past.   If you can't work together, then at least work silently.

Remember, at the time, both of your alliances were land claims.  That by default will mean a higher level of aggression is likely.  This is a game and that is fine if you want it to be part of your experience.  It does not mean that you have to be disrespectful of each other in public forums.

When dealing with the peace between Stark/Stomp and between Han/B|B/Stark I had good, constructive & polite conversations with all parties involved.   So, I know you all can do it.
