As Tens mentioned, if the faction is hostile towards you, then you have a good chance of being attacked by them the closer your cities are to their hubs. They attack anyone, pres purchases or not. Once the DEVs finish the faction AI, there should be a way to increase standings with different factions, and therefore stop the attacks from coming. However, as that AI has not been completed, all one can do to not be attacked is not place their cities by hostile faction hubs.

Consider Slaying Runes, as well as Runemasters Grounding, to help relieve the attacks made directly against your city. Harvesters near hostile faction hubs should be guarded by armies.

The Tower/Omen faction troops may only be being more aggressive right now due to the upcoming event/tournament (or whatever those mysterious system messages are hinting towards). After that event is over, the faction hostility may drop down again (tho cant be certain).

Now that the humorous wise guys have picked themselves up off the floor from laughter, is there a solution to these attacks in Calumnex? What? Do they want me to move my cities? I have been repeatedly attacked and lost numerous gatherers and several armies. Now they are attacking my cities proper. Are these attacks happening against "prestige buyers" as well? I wonder.
I am looking for good solid advice, more than minimal!

I take it that the <system> message in GC was real?

Faction troops are NPCs.

What happened in GC in regards to this faction?  I can only assume that their hub is having a sale?  Did they cut taxes on sales?  

Here is what an unnamed member of the same alliance as I has to report:

[27 Jul 20:47]<JodaMyth> [20:36]<System> From the south, a cacophonous boom rings out across the landscape. Commoners scream in horror as the ground shakes violently beneath them. The sky, only moments before the calm purple of dawn, now blazes a brilliant and unnatural bright orange-red; as if the horizon burns with fire.

I know what they do. My question is what are they? Are they other players? The System? Developers?

Some of the Factions are 'active'. This means that their actions depend on their attitude towards both you and your alliance. They may attack everything belonging to you or they may help you (although I've never seen that). If you are in an area that a faction who hates you is active then you are going to be attacked. Below is an interactive map I made that shows where I have spotted various faction troop encampments.
