I've been in so called ghetto where so called top kingdom warred us and one little province took out there whole kingdom. I look at these kingdom that call themselves the best and I laugh. It's just a joke really. If you ran only 98k def at home being 4k acres my province would have to show you the error of your ways.
I have been taking another break, of course.

Bitter about being rocked by homes? I think you're confused, vines.

Let me ask you this: If you have 100% BE on 30% of your land (because you have 70% homes, lol), and I have 80% BE on 100% of my land, who gets more out of their land?

Oh... that would be me? Shocking. How are you fitting GS, TGs, forts, farms, guilds, and towers in that 30% land, by the by? Oh, no GS? Interesting, you're already surrendering a substantial land advantage to me. I'll say it again, since you missed it: optimizing your province for BE is the opposite of an intelligent move. You optimize your province for power.

I can also run 90%+ of my population as army. Here's a hint: If I have 100k def on 4k acres, it probably means I have well over 600k off. (On a sidenote, that def number was made up from the guy I quoted, if you bothered to read. You didn't, but that's okay because everyone knows you're crazy).

But, you're right vines. We really should give this a shot in a real war, shouldn't we? PM me your loc and we can do it. I'm not even in a top kingdom but I'd be happy to demonstrate what happens when true SK players run into ghetto players.
