    UF News: All Aboard the Paintrain!

    Quick note: After attempting to contact Aggression's monarch, he defected before answering whether or not the kd would like to participate with the article. If anyone from Aggression would like to add anything to the article, please feel free to get a hold of me. Given the one-sidedness of my information, I'll do my best to keep this unbiased, and anything that seems biased is not intentional =\. Also, sorry for not having this proof read, but I want to get this out as it's been put off for way too long.

    While ANZAC Paintrain was searching for a war, 'SO-YouThinkYouCan-VIET' randomed into Aggression's 'AggressioN OrangE' and within the same hour was retalled by not only 'AggressioN OrangE' but 'AggressioN KorP' as well. The speed at which they retalled hinted that Aggression was searching for a war, so ANZAC Paintrain jumped at the opportunity. ANZAC Paintrain planned a 14-hit wave to get them to max out unfriendly on the hostile meter. The targets were 'VagrantRiot', 'Of The Art', and 'Bdown2'. The plan was a large massacre wave, however one anonymous kd member TM'ed 'Imper' who was not even on the target list and even worse, put ANZAC Paintrain as hostile against Aggression.

    February 22 of YR12 AggrssN has declared WAR with our kingdom!

    Aggression could not have picked a better time to declare war. The majority of ANZAC Paintrain had just gone to sleep, leaving the kd as sitting ducks until people woke up to respond. Aggression took this advantage and used it to target 'Rob0ballfro' ANZAC Paintrain's highest offensive prov. On declaration, ANZAC Paintrain had 2 provs online, and they chose to target 'Conformity' whose army was out.

    Eventually, as ANZAC Paintrain's leadership woke up to find themselves in war, they adapted a "Primary/Secondary Chain" system. They decided to target 'Ressurerection' and chose to continue to focus on 'Conformity' as the secondary target, whose army still had not returned home. By this time, ANZAC Paintrain had decided to hold their dragon until the majority of the kd was ready to hit, to maximize it's usefulness. On March 2nd, Paintrain's dragon was on it's way. Aggression, not soo quick with their dragon, had their dragon sent on the 13th, and ANZAC Paintrain had it killed in 6 hours.

    By the second day of the war, Paintrain figured they were not going to be able to grow up any unbreakables without turtling, which they did not want to do, so they decided that the gameplan was to outgun Aggression and force them into surrendering. ANZAC Paintrain focused chaining 'AggressioN SmokinSweetness' and 'Pullo of Screams'.

    By day 3 and 4, the activity turned in favor of ANZAC Paintrain. Over this time, Paintrain finished up the war by chaining 'AggressioN McMLXxX', 'AggressioN Castor Troy', 'Screams of Namur', and 'AggressioN Borked'. By the end of the war, Paintrain chained 'AggressioN Ressurerection'. After that chain, ANZAC Paintrain switched to max gains and Aggression soon surrendered.

    June 8 of YR12 AggrssN At War has withdrawn from war. Our people rejoice at our victory!

    Throughout the war, ANZAC Paintrain focused on Greed, Riots, and MS, while utilizing NM's for chains.

    ANZAC Paintrain's an all Austrailian/New Zealander warring kingdom. I'm sure they'll make themselves more available if they want that =]

    Paintrain's leadership: "Thanks to AggressioN for being without a doubt the most enjoyable of our opponents to war. It's always refreshing to have a war where both sides can share a joke or two and keep it light-hearted. We wish them all the best for the remainder of the age, and look forward to the re-match that they've promised!"

    Thanks to ANZAC Paintrain for contacting me and cooperating =]

    Horrible start by us ... That Anon nearly killed us. Thanks again to Aggression and it's a shame your monarch left. Keep your heads up over there!

    Everything from here is just my personal opinion however it seemed Aggression's plan was to begin with deep chains on our higher offense provinces before switching to a semi-chain strategy. The idea behind the semi-chains was simply to restrict our higher peasant counts and try to neutralise our economies. Whilst doing so they focused their Magic Ops, on our solitary Human Merchant destroying his economy within the first day of war. After this point i'm unsure who they op'ed ... No one in our KD has mentioned mass-magic against them. In the meantime they were hoping to turtle several of their larger Avians / Halflings whilst using their core group of Halflings to Night Strike our remaining High Offense provinces.

    Special thanks to Palem for the awesome write up
