I believe what Nesta meant to say was that those 2 provinces came out with huge gc (about 1.6mil and 1.8mil), and that CR intra kd stole some gc before resetting them again. Again, it's not up to us but the devs to decide if its legit.

CR warred very well, and would own in both activity and strat against most kingdoms on the server. I am pretty convinced of that. This CR was on 10x the level of the CR we beat 2-3 ages ago. However, I dont think a skilled kingdom like CR should have some of their core members going around bashing others with inflated egos and all, and hence present themselves the way they did in front of the community.

We knew it would be a tough war against the feeding plan of CR, maybe we were too naive or too ambitious, but the least we know is that we wont lose any land in war (we took +1.85k in war). As summed up by Nesta13,

'As far as I'm (or PyroManiaCs is) concerned, if Bishop deemed it was unfair advantage, that unfair advantage was already present for 24 hours and it made all the difference. First from them having that level of military to wave us 7 hours OOP, 2nd from us having to wave down 3 near UB provinces (who would be UB given another 12h of train time had we not chosen to take them down in the first wave) who received the unfair aid in the first wave in war, 3rd from your counter-wave, and 4th, still having the troops right till they were released by Bishop towards the tail-end of our 2nd unique in war. What the release did was to make their first chained 3 provinces in the first unique more susceptible to multi taps in our 2nd unique, and made it easier for us to hit down 1 more province; the one last halfling WH had already retrained much more to break free from our core so that he was already marginal UB (UB to most in our KD except a few) and really OOR of any profitable taps and we couldnt waste hits OOR bringing him down with the war being tight at that point. Then again, like I said, this happened at our tail-end of our 2nd unique, where 75% of our KD has already sent out troops against your provinces pre-Bishopped (can I verb this? lol). So keep thinking it's 17 v 25 war if that's what rocks your boat (exaggeration #2?).'

Once again, congratulations to CR for the victory. It was well won despite having some circumstances turn against you. Level of activity and strategy wise was close to perfect. Pyros will reflect on the mistakes we made and strive to war better in future

Cheers
