Two opposing forces clash against each other.

Cavalry comes into its own when able to strike hostile forces at will, and from unexpected directions - and nowhere is this more feasible than on open plains. Lightly armoured spear units, however, prefer terrain where there's some cover available.

Fighting defensively on open plains, cavalry draws strength from the ability to form and reform their lines of engagement depending on the direction of battle, and it is here where cavalry excels.

That was diplomatically put, you must have kids or be a teacher?  I will take this opportunity to post our official stance, we outlined it in GC, but may as well put it here too. HAVOC are a shell of their former selves, they have lost most of their good and more active players. At this point, it wouldn't be much of a fight I am sad to say and they lack any real tactical ability now that Pulvorize and Daufer are gone. I personally would feel like I was beating up a toddler. So, we will smash any sieges sent at us (or most likely Driad) and possibly neuter any cities we see with serious threats, but we will not be actively pursuing this conflict. (Yes, we have scouted several of their cities) There will most likely be the odd blights and hostile diplos, but in general, we are playing this one defensively, unless given a real need to do otherwise. Hopefully HAVOC get bored swinging their fists and the whole hullabaloo dies down with no loss of cities to their side.

well now the major players that where preventing your petty newbie skirmish  are kinda busy whit a true  Great War ... so feel free to hit each others to death if you want to...
and no one will even care about. there are much more important issues now.

Eh? So if someone supports ICON, you will all know that they will be supported by Johnny?

Dictionary wrote: con-done 1. Accept and allow (behavior that is considered morally wrong or offensive) to continue. 2. Approve or sanction (something), esp. with reluctance.

Is that what you meant to say? If yes, cheers. If no, then I quite frankly can't see any reason for you coming onto this thread other than to interfere between the HAVOC vs ICON war, similar to your vendetta against Gaius/Gaia.

Hope the animation didn't cause offense. I was just having some fun. There are some fine players in both alliances and lets face it they have both had to start from scratch and survive amongst ( and been interfered with by) some much larger kudos seeking alliances.

One of the positives about this (and there are some) is that both alliances have very distinctive approaches to the game which are equally valid when assessing Illyriad gameplay.
