its not really that easy. Just cause Greek Gods did it once vs us when neither of our leaders were around the week before for various reasons doesn't make it work consistently.Quote:

Many of us could be having a lot more fun. If it's not ambition then it should be curiosity.
Seems a romantic novel was written to make swea look awesome.Quote:

The best part of that age might have been the leaders channel with Flogger, Binar, me and Elit. It was pretty lol and it was unfair to the rest of the server. Had we got along better it would have been total domination for many ages to come.
Bart , Mansoor was neither a hero nor a genius. Getting an edge over kds by breaking ur deals isnt that hard to do really . Also the next age was completely diffrent for him because nobody trusted him anymore and gave him nothing which led eventually to the downfall of SWEA . Imo a top kd is the the that gets an edge while keeping their word and their leaders are heroes or geniuses as you called Mansoor . Lying and cheating to get an edge makes you just a liar and a cheater , not a hero or a genius.
Never too late for domination. You're free to serve under Spartan theocracy!Quote:

All was possible thanks to Elit having principles and Anri being a hothead. Elit with Polar Bears could have ruined it all a lot of times.
Also there is no doubt Mansoor played the politics and diplomatic game very well.
