    Casual kingdom war: Kapow vs EWA

    Time for a war report. Kapow approached empyrean wrestling association if they might be interested in a friendly war. After some mailing back and forth, EWA accepted the challenge. The only agreement was hostilities could be started on februari 24, yr12. At the time of the agreement, both kingdoms were around 7,2 mil nw. Kapow quickly went fortified to change those fragile pump builds into something that could take a pounding while EWA waited in normal.

    KD setup of Kapow:
    1 Avian tactician
    2 Faery mystics, 3 Faery rogues
    1 Halfling rogue
    5 Human mystics, 3 Human tacticians
    2 Orc clerics, 1 Orc war hero, 4 Orc warriors

    Kd setup of EWA:
    1 Avian tactician
    3 Faery mystics, 1 Faery rogue
    1 Halfling mystic, 1 Halfling rogue
    8 Human clerics, 1 Human merchant, 1 Human sage
    4 Orc clerics, 1 Orc warrior
    1 Undead tactician

    Before any relations
    Kapow was drafted a lot deeper than EWA, but EWA had a lot more peasants and economy. Both kingdoms seemed to be dealing with some lesser active provinces, which hurt preparation for both sides. Both kingdoms had enough cash on them to fund about 1 dragon and switch to war builds.

    The hostile:
    Kapow started a sapphire dragon and EWA started an emerald one. EWA hit a few times till unfriendly with massacres on a faery mystic and human mystics. Kapow responded with traditional marches, targeting mainly t/m’s. Some ops went back and forth, mainly meteors, some greeds and riots, and the stealing and destroying of money and runes. EWA held the button, but chose not to press it right away. Instead, they hit till just under the hostile points Kapow had hit for and moved to fortified stance. Kapow continued with the strategy they started with, hitting t/m’s down with traditional marchs. This resulted in Kapow having a few unbreakable t/m’s, while those who were on the brink of unbreakable in EWA had their defense greatly reduced. The wave into fort came at a cost though, fortified stance didn’t give full protection yet, but it still limited the gains and EWA declared on march 20, able to hit for full gains and chain on the declare date.

    The war so far:
    Both kingdoms sent their dragons and EWA chained one of Kapow’s attackers that was late with converting to warbuild and had no guardstations, hospitals or watchtowers yet, with some extra hits on one of the human mystics and one of the orc clerics. Kapow’s armies had all been out, and haven’t hit in war yet, but did start organizing their ops; mainly keeping meteors up, fireballing, stealing, kidnapping and assassinating wizards.

    This appears to become a fun and friendly fight for both sides, with very different strategies used by the kingdoms involved and already some nice warforum trolling.

    Oh cool. I admire EWA: a heritage kingdom with great banners and reserved players from what I understand. I'm glad the kingdom of Kapow have frequented the news thread. This area of the game, the old kingdoms, is my favorite. Thank you.

    If you take the inactivity as just the weather it makes sense. I've found most kingdom in all actuality have 7-10 dedicated players with the rest 'kind of there'. Most.

    ~ Off Topic: My thread in the Roleplaying forum, The Virtual Kingdom, is about gathering 3 of these dedicated cores into one kingdom. ~

    We just had a lot of turn over since last age. The bigger kingdom sizes really did a number on us, not being able to find those 2 capable extra players and regulars getting fed up about it and leaving or just going inactive aswell. We didnt have these problems last age when we were named Godric's Hollow.

    This is the summery for war, both kingdoms did 2 waves:

    EWA's strategy seems to be to NS low defense attackers to even lower defense and chain them hard. Kapow still went after a t/m in the first wave, chaining a halfling and did a nightmare run on an attacker which allowed extra massacres into the halfling that was brought down the wave before.

    Picking up where Uhm hoi left off,

    Two more waves occurred. Kapow decided to go after an Orc Warrior who left his armies in during said wave. EWA's orc made sure to send out after sending most troops to the dragon to reduce overpop. The wave went thorough and swiftly, as the orc stumbled from 2100 acres to 200. Kapow added to this wave with massacres on an earlier chained halfling as well as a few sidehits on Faeries.

    EWA responded rapidly after by finishing their chain on a once OOR human mystic. They succeeded in getting the human mystic overpop and down to 800 acres. They combined their wave with opening a new chain target (Another big human) with some hits, as well as getting nightstrikes (7k troops!) off a second big human mystic.

    After that Kapow replied with two more waves. One targetting the biggest human attacker in EWA, with a nightmare run, opening up the human for even thefaery TMs to make a decent first hit in the wave. The target shrunk to 123 acres, as well as losing about 350k in books. The other wave by Kapow was a decent chain on an avian tact who had fallen target due to his high amount of peasants. This wave ended less deep, with the target at 460 acres.

    EWA responded to the wave on the human attacker (NM ran) with a wave on a combination of targets. The earlier opened up human tact got run down to 800 acres, but more hits were made into an Orc cleric who had been an early war target as well as an Orc Warrior with sizable offense. These last two both stuck around 1200-1500 acres and quickly recovered by making decent hits throughout Kapows wave on the avian tact.

    EWA's response to the Avian tact wave is yet to be seen. Minimum war time ends in 3 days and Kapow eagerly awaits response from EWA to keep the fun going!

    Well, the response to that final chain and extra hits on those t/ms was to do a max gain wave and surrender. Fighting a war without unbreakables and the t/ms getting hit down and disabled is pretty hard when the other kd has 4 unbreakable t/ms I guess. Anyway, good fight, I really enjoyed the war, thank you EWA for the sportsmanship and maybe till next age.
