The reason for the fall is two-fold: orc/warriors that aren't being dealt with as ordered, and gnome T/M's with insane WPA's.
It's possible the delayed launch of our sapphire dragon, people not carrying enough to build watchtowers and guard stations on time, and my crew being so idle and stupid that they gave the button to our opponent roughly 10 hours ahead of our planned declaration might have added to it.
I refuse to login again until the game resets, which is on friday. Last I was logged in, we had a 90 NWPA dark elf, on a sleek, smooth 2.2k acres.
