Oh, and positive things:
[1] If you are a trader and you haven't made a bloody fortune, you've no one to blame but yourself
[2] New city locations opening up
[3] People twiddling their thumbs in the sandbox, wondering why everything we have is for making troops, making stronger troops or making troops faster? Now we know.

WW1 leading to WW2 is a bit over-stated, imo.
But more importantly is how WW2 ended.
To suggest that leaving a defeated party with harsh reparations is somehow worse than burning and leveling cities seems absurd on its face.
And how does WW1 explain Japan's involvement in WW2? Or China?

Actually dude - you guys are the Empire, we're the rebellion and Kumo makes a great Princess Leia.

I was thinking more of how WWI led to WWII. Of course that ended with pretty much the same winners and same losers, just a lot more dead. I'm sure the Cold War will be a blast... again. It would be interesting to see H? rebuilding ex-Consone as a buffer against a third power, though I don't really see that happening. Maybe Illy isn't World War or Star Wars, maybe it's just Illy.

(...) New confeds have been formed or have grown in size primarily because of this. I think a good example is the Dark Star Dominion, who in my opinion may be one of the most powerful confeds in the game simply because of their geographical location and density. No longer can an alliance or confederation of alliances be spread willy nilly all over Illyriad. Weather or not this leads to a future war with regional battle lines drawn is another debate, but it could lead to some interesting times once TBL is released.
Oh, and we learned that walls mean jack. |
Indeed, BSH, SCH, Tcol and Cok ( the "start" of the dominion) are for a long time now mutch mutch stronger that is mere "numbers" would say. Not only is the more "dense/concentrated force" in illy, but is also a very well coordinated force that is also able to move/act like one force.
Density, strength, coordination and focus. that is lethal. And to had past alliances thinking that they could mess whit one of them, is prove for me, that in general a lot in illy din't see the huge potential there. And now reinforced in numbers by new allies.
anyway... good things in this war... well from time to time, i get to see whats look like hundred of yellow army's and diplos pass by my towns.. looks pretty.

I was gonna say Han Solo but that has slightly worrying implications for this thread so I guess I'll be Obiwan.
