Two of the top 10 kingdoms have battled it out twice this age. The kingdoms of Fury of Absalom and OldSchool warred earlier in the age with Fury coming out as the victor. OldSchool were unable to op the bank province of Fury during the first war and had withdrawn. Unfortunately, the utopian forum news team wasn't around then so we were not able to cover that first war.
However, we are covering this one!! The hostile between the kingdoms was very drawn out as provinces from both kingdoms were being very careful not to open themselves up too much, hitting safely, keeping as many troops home as they could. Fury of Absalom had one of the largest bank provinces on the server and they seen the war as an opportunity to try and achieve the #1 spot given that there was not much else to do with what was left of the age. OldSchool on the other hand were looking for one final war before the age ended. According to OldSchool their original target was Rage of Absalom but they were unavailable. The second choice was Sanctuary of Absalom, but when OldSchool notifed both Sanctuary and HaLL of Heroes, both kingdoms entered fake wars. Fury of Absalom was the last target so OldSchool started to hit, with Fury of Absalom declaring war.
February 5 of YR14 We have declared WAR on OldSchool HOSTILE ()!
Even with war declared, the pattern of being cautious remained. The war was very much fought by the smaller half of each kingdom along with the bank of Fury trying to gain as many acres as possible.
With the provinces of Fury of Absalom being merchants, OldSchool were in a better position to do more in the war in terms of ops. Their rogues were able to get decent NS success and after 2 days of war, they decided to throw everything they had at the bank province in Fury. They mass fireballed, apparently at a rate of 2% success but were ultimately able to drop the number of peasants from 200k to 30k. OldSchool also focused all their NSing ability on the bank and while the bank of Fury had remained unbreakable for the first few days, a subsequent quad tap to grab as many acres as possible backfired. It opened the province up to conquests, with OldSchool happily taking the opportunity. They were able to conquest at an average of 900 acres. These conquests meant that OldSchool were able to take back what the bank of Fury of Absalom had gained in the war up to that point. After one day of conquesting, Fury's bank went from quad tapping to only single hitting in order to remain safe and unbreakable. With their ultimate goal eliminated and the their bank province unable to obtain the desired acres, Fury of Absalom decided to just end the war and get out.
June 8 of YR14 Unable to achieve victory, our Kingdom has withdrawn from war with y u deelte war forumz (). Our failed war has finally ended!
