Siege as a response to lost troops is not a valid response. It is an overreaction. If losing troops over a mine due to miscommunication between the alliances is "first blood", then I would have gone to war with my neighbors a long time ago.

No, we can see that a failed ATTACK was repelled by Deimos, who was already there (since the DEFENDER won) ... claiming to not know good English (while eloquently filling pages :p ) only gives you so much leeway for such "errors" ... ;)
Reading that 50+ pages long thread I thought that some major battle was to be done and so help was needed to field the necessary troops, but this is not the case clearly.
So, now answer us this ... SkB have proven in this war that they could field MUCH more than the 3000 troops that Messer sent (even Messer himself could field many more depending on his population) ... so what EXACTLY did SkB need to call Absaroke for .?. To deal with a mere pittance of more or less 6000 troops .?.
"Phew" indeed ... :p

Sorry for my mistake. You can see that Messer's army sent to attack was defeated by Deimos.

I tend to agree with a number of others. This topic is no longer valid. We have a situation where a number of alliances have declared war on a number of alliances. This is old news now and I don't believe that it matters anymore. To find peace in all this is above and beyond anything that can be found in this topic. Perhaps a topic with the intent of solving all the declarations of war would be more prudent, or in the least a topic posing bets along the order of: I think alliance x will do Y for 4 mil gold. I might find those more enjoyable and useful at this point :D

In most players opinion, I would have thought. Killer Poodle please state why you think that it is not an overreaction?

Not going further in explanation...
I must admit that I have failed as leader because didn't use my authority to try prevent escalation of tensions between our alliances, so I am willing to resign. Many will say it's irrelevant but I see it as accepting my share of guilt and one step toward peace solution.

I disagree. When the same thing happened one year ago I thought what you said now, that finding peace was all that mattered. Given that one year later the protagonists are the same, I think it is due that every attempt at clarification of what really happened is important. I also think that it is good to hear both sides of a story is a widespread say accross the whole humanity you can find in pretty much any civilization at any time and even in fantasy worlds. Interestingly a number of players have posted in this thread against this, claiming that hearing one side should suffice. And not surprisingly they consider redudant the story told from the side they oppose to...
