On February 9th YR7, BOB(10:13) went looking for war when their eyes landed on Mercy Of Absalom(15:29). BOB performed a wave of 24 hits on Mercy which was answered by Mercy after only 2 hours with 2 retaliations and a declaration of war.
February 11 of YR7 We have declared WAR on Happy Hannukah Mercy(10:13)!
The strategies from both sides were mainly characterized by heavy chaining. With Mercy targeting the high offense provinces within BOB to produce more unbreakable provinces with help from their bank. Mercy reports that they utilised Assassinate Wizards, then Nightmares and finally Night Strikes to help in bringing these provinces down as efficient as possible.
BOB on their part also focused their efforts on heavy chaining, targeting those provinces in Mercy they felt could grow out of range for them.
BOB cites a bad second day in war, low activity due to RL engagements, as one of the main deciders of the wars outcome and feel it put them on the back foot for the rest of the war. This was in turn confirmed by Mercy who felt their ability to quickly build unbreakable provinces through the aid of their bank truly sealed the result of the war.
After 123 Hours of actively warring BOB decided to cut their losses and Withdrew from war, granting Mercy their first Win of the age.
July 14 of YR7 Happy New Year Mercy(10:13) has withdrawn from war. Our people rejoice at our victory!

we switched to max gaining on day 2 thinking they would withdraw at mintime. As a result, right at min-time our orcs were quite fat and on less military than theirs. (none of our unbreakables started really 4x'ing till the end of day 3, except for our big two) I expected them to gain acres on day 3, in fact.
However, they foused more on finishing up the existing chains on day 3 combined with the activity issues noted above resulted in them not breaking even or even gaining for another day or two as I had expected.
Had they max gained days 3-4 we would have not gained more and they would have gained the pool acres.
vs orcs if one kd is smaller and more pumped they'll farm out the larger ones every time. We'd gladly prove the theory vs. Pulse now, 7k acre orcs look yummy.

grats flogger
nice farming abs whores
bob
flogger ftw
question is - why did u stay in war for so long when the war was decided on day 2... could have went out with only 10k acres lost....
Nah mod, question is why do kingdoms willingly farm out to Abs? I thought everyone is supposed to hate Abs? Keep the acres!
they were inspired by the war of pulse. but noone can copy pulse :)
Ever so true.
