Persain, now you know why play for land is more harder and value from warring, because there is so many complicated factors. You cant success from first age its take more time to adapt.
Palem, how i told already TFC is not real kd, because its not factor for chart. When you cant wave other kds you cant out grow another land competitors so rest land based kds don't bother to hit you. When you wont declare war there is zero reason for any WW kd to hit you too. Its what give TFC more or less stable/safe grow every age but this is not competition. If you want to be part from real competition you need to use proper setup not 25 FA, but this take a lot more time.
There is another simple solution: Leave abs/hoh alone for 3 ages in land chart. After it they will be complete bored and disband :)
