    I think if you notice their war, they're at the point where they've already max gained them to the ground. Not sure what the other kingdom thinks they're doing still fighting.

    Some people just don't know when to give up. I wouldn't be shocked if they gave it another day or two of being farmed then sent an MP...then got all offended when they got laughed at.

    what's there to see? lol, they think I care that they'll war me until EoA. When you've won back to back crowns, nothing else really matters in this game. We'll use their kd to even out our spread and have fun pking them. I'm sure they tried a lot harder getting their elites that they lost, than I did playing this game.

    It makes for good /facepalm material. Determination paired with poor judgment always make for amusing reads. It's what defines ghetto warfare...you did say you were running a ghetto this age, right? ;)

    I think it is possible to get a province down to the point where the person running it just 'chucks in the towel' yet i am not sure and i haven't yet seen a province be traditional marched and or razed into nothingness.

    my kingdom is currently at war and we have smashed the enemy monarch from 700 acres down to 370 or so - funnily enough he offered a mutual peace agreement :-) however we were only getting between 10 - 20 acres each hit due to the gangbang rule (which isn't as exciting as it sounds) i think it would be very difficult to totally PK a province.

    I think you mentioned somewhere you just started this age. But yeah, most kingdoms don't utilize PK in war because it requires extra planning/knowing what you are doing and monitoring of the province you are PK'ing over several ticks. The procedure may also involve hits that end up taking small acres (as you noted) that end up as wasted hits in a normal war because of the opportunity cost associated with such hits.

    Well in my recent war, we nearly killed a prov off but he got some soldiers and released them to prevent the tick from killing him, but yeah incredibly difficult and mostly stems from the result of negligent play by the person being PKed

    Precisely. As I said, PKing a hyperactive is nearly impossible, unless you catch him while sleeping, and none of his KDmates have a phone number for him or something.

    Wait...I just realized something...you said GOT soldiers. Am I to understand that instead of releasing a small part of his army to avoid being PKed, he asked for soldiers from someone else...while being chained...thereby not really solving his problem at all? O_o

    getting aided soldier to realease is a good idea. i too found myself in this postition. when your an undead at 200 acres the last thing you wanna get rid of is your ghouls. if you can get some soldier to keep in peasantry till your land comes in will keep you attacking, and keep the attention on you, and lightweight keep you a contender. ive seen undead get chained down and they release their ghouls to keep their wizzies and thieves and d spec... poor fools were done before they even started... you say not helping the problem at all? well realistically if a kingdom takes you down by chain chances are they arent going to let you up. imo the best thing you can do at that point is do your best to contnue to deal damage, and drag them down. unless maybe if you have a bit of land coming in and your kingdommated can super bomb you after some hits, maybe you could boost back up. but that seems highly unlikely
