Yeah, I was just about to edit again, but you beat me to the punch.
I think the lack of clever on these forums is slightly contagious.
I've sent you an IGM.
Hooroo.

Strategy does not demand war. It is just amongst one tool where all can pursue their own ends.

It's a very good question, it deserves an answer. |
Because there is only one server, and it is eternal? If we break the world server, it's going to stay like that. Actions in Illyriad carry more consequences because there's only one. Hence why war isn't taken lightly. That's my take on it.

Actually KP, I think that given the current circumstances - that is a question for YOU to answer...otherwise you lay yourself open to the charge that as leader of H? - all you want is War! Please show us your skills to create a constructive facet of the game rather than a destructive one. Thereby imho lies the path of a mature player.

Umm 3 years of leading the most successful alliance in Illy and fostered THE most peaceful community in the gameing community....maybe? Question for ya pal: Name me a game where 75% of the concept (I refer to military buildings vs non) is orientated (refer % of buildings which has a military orientation) towards military and the progressive next step.....which has had so little conflict. You state all KP wants is war? 3 years of record and fact speak very differently to your baseless mud. Fact. Jack. Here's a helping hand.... https://www.google.com.

Remember the Cold War?
Lots of military equipment, lots of troops, no actual fighting.
At the moment, business (trade and crafting) is based on military, and in smaller parts, diplomacy. As long as we have nothing else to base our Illy economy on, we have to base it on the military. Maybe with these new resources, there will be a shift? Who knows. Making and selling pretty jewelry to adorn our avatars might be a new take? But hopefully we can see some kind of shift into magic, and maybe get tools to terraform the land itself. Then economy would shift to a more balanced military/non military trade system.

I speak peace, but carry a war axe.
