Kalc, you are aware that in here each posting of a fact = "town x of player y razed by player z"
will cause at least 5 posts of...
1. How razing this exact town was bullying from the other side... 2. Yeah, we showed you... 3. REVENGE!!! 4. At least 1 or 2 forum trolls 5. Luna closing the thread because of 4 and maybe 3, if there were insults included.
In itself a cool idea, but I'm not sure it would work... usually people are the problem  |

One way of war record keeping I've seen utilized extensively in the past, is to have a forum topic only for posting copies of battle reports, one topic for each war declaration. Since it's pretty easy to check if a city is missing, really all one needs to do is post a quick statement. This way everyone has the same official information to count from.
Underdogs usually want to show the abuse they are taking, and the others usually want to show off the damage they did.

Sloter is quite right, the past is the past. And I do apologise for bringing it up again. Won't happen again.
... we old farts enjoy reminiscing about stuff that is long gone...
:o)

I think aside from Anjire there was also troops from Sister Niki suporting one other RHY siege camp.So first war op and skirmish of Consone and Coalition happened in those battles against RHY sieges that were suported by H? deff troops.RHY probably asked for help when they found out that Consone will try to remove those siege camps.That is how i remember it at least.
Anyway i think that all from both ex Consone alliances and Coalition alliance have no reason to talk much about past war.What happened is in past and all involved will remember it differently and there is no point in talking about it since peoples mind wont change over time.

RHY declared war on Absa. No war declarations from consone side. Absa settled peace with RHY (over IGMs), and a few hours later H declared war on Absa and Invictus.
The first RHY sieges on vty's city 'Nova' and SnapDragon's city '1 PFK' were reinforced by Anjire's troops. Regarding 1PFK I am certain, because the reports were from my cavalry.
But it's all insignificant history. We are not the troublemakers this time!

With H? not participating in the October '12 tournament and significant H? members transferred into RHY, it was clear that the sieges against us had H?'s full support, declaration from H? or no.
It's funny--Coal argued vigorously during the Trove War that Consone amounted to a group of bullies intent on unseating H? from the top and establishing themselves as the dominant force on the server. There never was a plan to unseat H?, there just wasn't. From the sidelines of this war, it looks like maybe there was actual background planning to take down H? In some ways H? is getting today the war that they argued they were getting last year.
Best of luck to all. I genuinely hope that bulk of players will weather whatever comes down.

Sorry Brandmeister, your reaction is at the very least disappointing. All of this information can be found on these very forums.
Also, there are plenty of people who remember it.
My current Shadar Logoth character is new. But some will still know I was here just about from the very beginning.
I don't need petty lies etc to make my words sound true.
More people know what I am talking about. But yes, it's easy to deny all this. In your case I suggest you start reading up though.
Have fun.
Edited to offer Brandmeister a beer: ps... u don't happen to be a lover of brandbier?

Shadar, so let me get this straight: a big alliance at war with other big alliances suddenly changed its policy when it was no longer to their benefit. And then they were hypocritical about it on an Internet forum. Whaaaaat? Shock! INFAMY! Somebody call the MMO police!
It's impossible to take these kinds of posts seriously. My only disappointment so far is that you guys haven't caused the price of beer to skyrocket. Aren't your troops thirsty yet?
