Invictus - Our Position Regarding The War

Having watched a situation develop between a number of alliances from a distance so far Invictus and our brother confederates - Victrix and Absaroke would like to release the following statement in regard to our stance on the war.

I am an independent player who has followed the events and issues concerning H?, PA and latterly CHAMPS quite closely. Players will know that since the declaration of war by H? I have supported Valar

Celebcalen was formerly a member Valar but left some months ago, for no particular reason. During the time I was there I found them to be a decent bunch of people. They rarely paid attention to the personal jibes that they used to receive especially from PA and others. Instead they tended to focus more on the developmental side of the game - both the mechancs and the narrative itself. Most of them seemed to have a natural aversion to the politics (pvp) of the forum and GC which they tended to ignore. They wanted to build - and they especially wanted to build the Order of Valar. That was pretty much all they wanted.

They don't want this war but they will fight to defend their alliance and their particular style of play.   

That is why I have been so solid and vocal in my support for Valar and I have stuck to that even when I was at my most vulnerable as an independent player.

As I write this post I have incoming from Killer Poodle one of the leaders of Harmless? I have had no mails from H? as to why this might be. Although it has come the day after I said to Kumo in GC that H?'s declaration against 0-0 for trying to break H? sieges - amounted to an escalation of the war

War is not only hell. It is crazy. As this particular War has developed so has it's craziness. It no longer has any pretence to any moral purpose and is now starting to descend into a siege and raze frenzy irregardless of size or affliation. It has now got to the stage where I, an indpenedent player of 2 000 population, am about to be attacked or sieged by KillerPoodle who has a pop of 130 300.

I doubt whether I am the only player, under 10 000 or even 5 000 pop who has oppoesed H? who finds him/herself in this position.

I understand that VIC has a confed with Valar and I urge you to show resolve and honour it.

My mistake. I genuinely thought that was the case . It is in fact a NAP

PoS already chose to be part of this war by sending more than 20 large attacks against H? forces from their senior members.

As of yet H? has taken no action against PoS of any kind, other than extending the 'offer of war'.

If the actions of the PoS members involved are individual actions and do not reflect the position of PoS leadership then it is PoS' leadership's responsibility to request those members involved to either move over to VALAR for the duration of the war or to cease all hostile action immediately - if PoS leadership does this H? would be happy to sign an NAP I am sure.

As always, H? does not bear any particular ill-will or grudge against PoS - it is PoS decision if they want to be in this war or not - the ball is in their court.
