u remember that isle i stole from her?
well i thought this all was gettin old n she wouldnt stop nagging me fwith threats for her colony back n so on
so i told her to pay me for it
50K lumber n gold
so in teh mean time while she sent me supplies i did nothing but build stones on taht isle n she asked for the def i told her a few stoneys n sum ships

so id gett a free hit to her pride
ther was a more complacated plan that is hse had taken 1 of my mates she doesnt kno about was going to take it n claim it was i n my possesion when they sent the attack

LOL sly n evil, but naything to cause grief

n natmus if i did go to war with her, it wouldnt take much matteo n i have all the reports n could finish her with 3 waves

but that between us

tnx for the offer thoguh

What, she is attacking you now?

CAC, you need to share what will happen. If you go to war against DL and PhoenixFlare, Morkin will be right behind you.

[sparrowhawk]

Hey, hey, hey. What do we get to do then?!

[Natmus]

The fun continues, DL has lost one colony ship (I hope you all noticed that in the first post ), and then she contact CAC:

I'll just have to try again... This time I'll ask you ahead of time and come much better prepared. I've got 100 large warships and 40 cats. Will that be enough? I've just got to save up for another colony ship

Now read from the bottom:

Ok, is the main house level 1?

And if so, then just send a whole ton of archers?

CAC wrote:

yeah with main houses or lvls under 10 3 cats r more then enough or the damage will be wide spread

DarkLady wrote:

Will 40 catapults level the island though? That would totally suck...

oo sry again it happed

[ashimar]

Reading this I remembered a text I once saw on a t-shirt: "I'm with stupids". We should all wear one <lol>.

I'm actually surprised her defenses/offensive powers are so low. Would she have squandered them already elsewhere perhaps ? Underestimating what defenses those big players have is afterall rather easy. Also, I believe the damage calculator on IK gives you too optimistic readings when it comes down to the losses you will incur when attacking an island with reasonable mixed defenses (remember for instance Maroc's unfortunate raid on the wrong isle of yours ?

It could also be, and then your comment "kamikaze" is quite appropriate that her enjoyment/motivation in this game has dimished a bit. Afterall, after her initial momentum, she too must grow a bit tired of the resistance and string of incidents surrounding her persona nowadays.

[Freiegeister]

n natmus if i did go to war with her, it wouldnt take much matteo n i have all the reports n could finish her with 3 waves

A copy of said reports wouldn't go astray.

[Freiegeister]

I'm guessing the 100 large warships are on her main. Chiavata! it's tempting - I could level her right now...

[ashimar]

Yep, and I would want to go for her largest colony, two waves of 32 cats targeting wall and mainhouse and then directly followed by a colonyship 10 minutes later to see how lucky I can get <LoL>

[soiram]

Marc I am putting you as head of the flotilla targetting Shadow Isle. It makes sense...

[Arminius]

Building a colony ship now for assault on her ocean 15 colony.

[Ringthane]

Let me try! Let me try!

n nooo noo hwww hwy and gooey ships, arch moah moah, halla n natmus ta say wiz catna paralatakampf.

There! Any good? ;D

Okay, we strike the 25th?

[SkulkrinBait]

I am. Several people have indicated that date is good and nobody as far as I know has said anything against it, so it should be set in stone now or we'll never launch anything.

[Ringthane]

Deal. Eclipse Posse, hear that? Someone broadcast this. We launch as agreed before, ETA 25/10 13:00 GMT. Phil, got that c-ship? If not, then let it lie. We level that mire.

[ashimar]

Okay, 25th of october it is for me too then.

But I'm hopelessly behond with reading everything that's vbeen written about this, so i may not be abreast of everything now. If you want to make sure I know something that is important to me for the 25th then please PM me.

[soiram]

Don't worry Marc, I am handling it and will let everyone know by Monday.

Check the strategy thread for the draft plan. You are in charge of the Second Wave to Shadow Isle, and of course as keyholder to colm, for the entire first wave, unless we pass this to someone else.
