TLR Plunder & Pillage Policy

Geofrey-- Does Affirmative Action have a mandatory percentage of Orcs, Dwarves, or Elves in its alliance makeup? ;)

Well, EF is still bitter and petty. I'd be interested in hearing from anyone who is actually surprised by that.

TVM has indeed been hit very hard but there are some key differences in the way TLR ended and the current state of TVM.

First off, TVM still exists. I'm sure you and your loving friends in the Crow wings would argue it's not much of an existence but one can still view our profile and role call page. We are broken and bloody after the pile on but we are still living and doing our best to exist.

Next, the war that may finally destroy TVM was not started because leadership ignored efforts to avoid it. It started because EE decided to declare and attack without warning. Whether revenge, a major conspiracy to shift the balance of power in Elgea or something in between, there was no avoiding it.

The final difference I'd like to highlight is the fact that many of the members of TVM remain members. It is true that many have left for various reasons (mostly city preservation) but those that stay are not being held hostage and have been offered the opportunity to get out of the war by multiple sources. They could leave, yet do not. I count that as a major if not the main difference between the alliance you ran into the ground and the alliance I consider myself honored and seriously lucky to be a part of.

We acknowledge that there's a certain difference of opinion regarding what the war is about, but we've come to terms with it. uCrow wishes TVM nothing but the best in either peace or war. abstractdream wrote: the war that may finally destroy TVM was not started because leadership ignored efforts to avoid it.

We were very clear that supporting or even joining RE during the war would be viewed as an escalation; and as such would lead to further escalation. I personally pleaded repeatedly with Nistiner to avoid an expansion of the war, but my pleas were ignored. That said, we expected TVM to cave after EE declared, but you chose to fight regardless. Generous surrender terms were offered early on, but you refused them then... and continue to refuse them now. So your assertion that the war and even destruction couldn't (can't) be avoided is simply false.

It was no plea it was a plain kick all tvm players out of  RE or things may escalate, U should know by now i dont take friedly to threats nor do i  bend over to them, I Made it clear TVM was in RE to defend against  the  3 Million Pop celtic knight alliance, I told u over and over they we`re just  in RE to defend and as long as iam concerned TVM members in RE did not attack CK or Ucrow players, And i dont personnaly like that EE is using  RE as an excuse for revenge  which is quite planely  noted in GC and so forth every time EE pops in all i hear is what did tvm and the coalition did in Consone?<Plain revenge had nothing to do with RE so seriously.
