RK is a serious warring kingdom , they know how to win.
How did RK remove all the NWPA on those Elf Prince/Princesses?
Whats the dragon situation? Is RK still able to fund in a short time?
Their NWPA were never removed. The big ones just fattened over the war. Only the small elf got chain dropped and were planted with a number of massacres.
Dragon situation: 1 sided dragon on RK (Sapphire) and no dragon on PyroManiaCs.
RK took close to 60h to fund 2nd dragon, which PyromaniaCs slayed after 1 tick.
PyroManiaCs have been Dragon free since then, which is 48h till now.
Exact dragon details posted below:

I think a lot of people here are underestimating pyromaniacs here. I've warred both pyromaniacs and RoughKnecks, and no disrespect to either kingdom, but my money is on pyromaniacs.
Hi guys, some updates regarding the war.
It's been 117 hours since the war started (July 16 Yr 11, pre-wave each side started July 3rd Yr 11) and both kingdoms have took heavy hits. Here's the updated chart for all to see (Thanks to a fellow Danish friend :) )
It must be mentioned that most of the networth lead is due to shell acres.
Currently, RK still has 2.5 UBs (2 faery sages and 1 halfling hybrid) while Pyro has 4.5 UBs (1 Elf Mystic TM, 1 Elf Mystic Hybrid, 2 Halfing Rogues, 1 Human Rogue Hybrid).
RK has all their 4 mystics and 2 rogues chained down pretty badly. Pyro has 1 mystic and a couple of undeads chained down badly.
RK is currently tanking a 1-way sapphire dragon on them while funding a Ruby. Pyro is currently funding a Ruby atm. Pyro also holds economical advantage at the moment.
Over the past 24hours, Pyro has been conquesting the halfling hybrid of RK down with their Undeads. Making 3x side hits and 1x conquest. This has brought halfling down considerably. However, good province management has slowed down this conquest chain quite a fair bit. Decent LL has been carried out on the Pyro's fat undeads and aid from kingdom mates to retrain up.
In addition, the smaller of the 2 halfling of Pyro has managed to train enough defence to become UB. Pyro has also been doing decent chains with their middle undeads on the RK's top offence provinces. Pyro has also started ops on the 2nd Faery sage by doing full prop wave + FB.
On the other hand, RK has managed to take down most of Pyro's big undeads over the past 24hours, doing 3x-4x quad taps on them with sick offence on RK's Orcs. Good chaining discipline has been observed. In addition, as I am writing this post, RK has started just started it's first conquest on Pyro's smaller halfling (together with 3x side hits). However, with low defences on RK's provinces, the halfling is able to TM back some acres w/ only soldiers + aggression.
Will Pyro be able to find an answer in handling the 2.5 remaining UBs (2 Faery Sages Counts, 1 Halfling Rogue Baron) of RK?
Will RK be able to find an answer to the UBs of PYro? Halfling Prince, Halfing Duke, 2 Elf Prince, 1 Human Rogue.
Stay tuned!

Excellent war update CJ. I want to see what Tadpole's war update from their side too.
Agree, very nice write up. Would be interested to see where RK see themselves at as well. If they still have good offense on those Orcs, nothing is a foregone conclusion just yet. Looks like they have an uphill battle.Originally Posted by Nathz
Curious if the Elf Princes/Princesses can be fireballed in any facet now from the land growth lowering their WPA?
Now that's an update. :)
Looks like one of Pyros Elf's is in danger!
Im not Tadpole, but I can say a few words from RK.
This war is fun and we are having a really great time. We like long wars and hope this last much longer :).
Hopefully pyro likes it as much as we do.
Ok, bye
Looks like Pyros got it and RK is just dragging it. What else is going on?
Best update ever.
Not that easy. Roughknecks entered this war at a substantial disadvantage. Having to grow ~10k acres in a day or so to get in range and were thus vastly under-pumped. Like mentioned previous in this thread, RK faced a proper offensive and economical disadvantage. In turn we had 3 Faerys (with close to zero income, and severely underpumped in WPA, TPA and sci) that were a lil above Pyros highest off. But by no means any unbreakables (as war has shown). Likewise Pyro are now claiming to have unbreakables, while they're far from it. It's merely a question of how much resources one is willing to spend on take downs.
Pyro have managed to disable most of our Faerys, but they really never were in a position to contribute much to the war effort from start (only struggle for their own survival) - and thus their take-down has had little real impact. And aside from those take-downs, war is still raging on. RK is still at a disadvantage in several areas, but by no means counted out, or worse off than post first wave of war. NW and Acre disparity remains constant.
Pyro is running a setup RK haven't faced with our current composition, and we're thus learning a lot about both theirs and our own setups and approaches to warfare. As usual we try out new tactics and strategies, like we do in most wars in order to learn and have fun, not necessarily in the most efficient manner. Roughknecks has never aimed for any charts or prestige. We aim to war, aim to learn to excel and aim to have fun.
Lots of things can still happen. One thing we're _not_ doing though - is dragging the war, Pyro has simply failed to secure a win. In time they might, or things might turn to our favor. We've had plenty of wars where we've been called out to surrender, which we've turned around and won. Pyro has by no means made that outlook much grimmer than starting stats would suggest, and the war is still alive.
From the looks of things it might take some time for this to end. We'll see what ends first, age or war.

This war is so much fun, to me it's pretty much in the balance. But I will tell you one thing Tad, I wont let the SOUTH rise again :P
PS: Whatever TheOne posted, disregard it. He's one of our nub still learning the trades.
