I have recieved intel that i will be attacked very soon. I dont know if the attacks have been sent... all i know is a member of a top 10 alliance is receiving countless aid from his alliance, including catas etc.

I probably wont be able to stop it, but if anyone could send me reinforcements like catas. stonies etc, it will at least hurt the attack.

I dont ask for help much,( apart from lumber the other day ), but this looks like end game for me.

Ah well, that's life. Hopefully my views and opinions will still be respected with a score of 23

I will send stoners, as many as I can, but I've only just started building ships on the isle which has most stoners on it.

I'll post this on the other forum, I wont send cats as they are useless for defending, but once we've got a target then we can take down whoever attacks you.

As soon as you get an idea who is attacking message them to desist or risk incurring the wrath of FoM and Morkin.

Posting this on the other forum, if you didn't already!

we're not having that. ive only got 160 stone throwers but they are en-route to your main now.
i wish i'd started training them earlier but until skulkrinbait was attacked i never thought i'd need them.

Oh and BTW, what makes you think you are going to be attacked?

My two cents:

Don't believe everything you hear, only start to worry when your isles go red.

I keep getting n00bs telling me X and Y are going to attack me on .co.uk. If you do get attacked, I will retaliate against the attacker. Simple.

I think it's worth us all having a small stash of stoners, if we just build 1 a day on each island and build spears the rest of the time that will soon add up to a decent force.

I can only send a handful of stoners tonight but am now building ships as fast as I can on my two colonies with stoners on so can send a decent batch tomorrow.

I sent all I can spare to skulks just a couple days ago but I will start building more now to send to anyone preparing a retalitory force. Please post when we know more so I can help out. Also I'm presently building my first colony ship and will have a colony by tomorrow night. My Army is:
Army
Spearfighters (459)

Ships
Large Warships (35)
Small Warships (2)
Small Merchant Ships (30)

Stone Wall (Level 13)

do you think this is enough to start colonizing or should I wait?

Borderline I'd say, I've 700 spears now and think that is just about enough.

Looks like One Alliance were planning on hitting you. I dont know who it is they were planning on attacking you.

Heres a snippet from their alliance board:

Theres the message i got from a close ally.
Worrying is the fact that my source quoted my army and fleet exactly.

Why didn't your close friend tell you who it was or at least what clan they were in?

What defences do you have?

Which alliance? Who?

We need more info, get back to your contact, who is that?

[Natmus]

I looked over Severn's defenses not a week ago, and they were severely lacking. One week can not have helped that.

The best thing we can do now is to find out who is planning to attack him and scare them off with words. Scary words. And scoutings, lots of failed scoutings to let them know we are serious.

[SkulkrinBait]

We've sent a lot of stoners, 240 at least and will send more if need be. We need more info as Natmus says.

[Severn]

Sam from [elite] is the accused, however something just clicked....
My source is in [-S-] and [-S-] are just about to go to war with [Elite]. This probably hints that it is a cheap way of getting Morkin & co into the war.

Another thing, it now appears that its not just me in the red zone. It seems that, according to my TRUSTWORTHY source in [-S-], the alliance is focusing ever more on other members of this alliance. I believe us admins of FoM will be it first, so defence is a priority.

[mmupatton]

Could you present us with - properly edited of course - intel that could back this up. More eyes on the matter may bring more light to the matter.

A bit like more chefs, wait, that's not it

[AeroS]

If it is Sam, Natmus could fleet catch him in a heart beat. It wouldnt be to smart to attack Severn with Natmus standing in your back pocket would it?

[SkulkrinBait]

Is it worthwhile us all going for a colony ship to keep in case fleet stealing opportunities occur? I could probably get a colo ship within 2-3 days, might not be quick enough.

Yes, I may have a colo boat lying around somewhere.... if I can remember where I left it...

But I took some casualties taking out bbq yesterday, so I need a few days to get up to strength again

did i miss something there? you took out bbqd ?

[Natmus]

I didn't make a public announcement, as I'm still waiting for who will react to it.

And to avoid misunderstandings, I took out bbq, not bbqd. Maybe I should post the preceding scoutings of the isle so people can see why it was done.
