My Lands: Black Gem Hunting

Not much action on this board, so I'll try to spark a bit of life into it by documenting some of the great battles of Sapientia and give a bit of a story of what's going on behind the scenes.

The war with barracuda was triggered when an already tender relationship was pushed over the edge with a dispute over territory. Karalius the then leader of barracuda declares war on sapientia, which is immediately declared back on them. 24 hours later, Medinis launches an attack on your faithful narrator to destroy some low level alchemist labs in the villages of a training city. This was met with a swift reply of wiping out a large chunk of his army.

The next chapter of this war took a turn towards economic pressure, whereby Vwarrior, Zenzephyr, Kalinka1 and sapientia's ally Prroka cast spells daily on karalius so that he could no longer attack ruins to bring in gold. Eventually he had to take his army to another city and cast devotion to stop his army deserting, but with little gold to put his army in the sanctuary, Kalinka1 launched an attack on this army. It resulted in both sides taking heavy losses however the battle report is missing for now, I will post it when I get hold of this battle.

Eventually this constant pressure got the most of the barracuda who took anabiosis and never returned. It seems the server that he declared is for babies, because it is so much easier than the Russian servers, was too much for this player.

Following the elimination of the barracuda leader, there was a long period where barracuda defended themselves admirably and managed to keep the incoming attacks away using good knowledge of the game as well as some help from templiers proving a distraction from this war.

However, this was only a temporary break before a real onslaught of attacks over a short space of time. The first of these was scatterbrain. With no gold in his capital, all of his army in the garrison and no slow boots on his hero, this was a perfect time to strike.

After the slaughtering of one large player, it was only a few hours later when the great warriors Bastedo and Kingkano saw an opportunity to pounce again. This time it was scatterbrain's partner in crime saulius on the receiving end.

The latest battle of the war was fought about 2 weeks later, where the number 3 ranked player on the server was targetted. After previously dodging the bullet, this time was not to be. He was hit with a barrage of spells to plunder resources, trap his army and make his life hard. Then, after having a week of constant spam attacks, the latest warrior to sapientia, Mystyr joined forces with Vwarrior to repay the week of annoyance.

Following on from tornado45's demise, a flurry of buildings destructions were landed across multiple cities of the now helpless tornado.

Further more the before and after shots of his resources show how devastating it can be when spells are used effectively. Losing literally millions of every resource in the course of a day.

Nicely put up. Though waiting for them to make some attacks. Templiers have been more active but since Karalius quit month ago, both havent really done much.

Also i casted spells on karalius only on the occasion when we hit his capital, so credit goes to Zen and others in far east alongwith Prokka and mates.

Didn't you write about the battles you lost?

You mean the battle with kingkano and bastedo? I actually forgot about that battle and can't even remember who it was against, however if you remember correctly the headline was attackers won

I'll try and find that report if it's still out there...

I don't think we lost any battle with them since they declared war on us. King kano and Bastedo won against valdovas, with some losses.

The losing part is not important.

War means both sides attack.

This felt a bit one sided.
Did barracuda never attack back?

Post some reports where you people defended & barracuda attacked.
Maybe you won, maybe you lost - doesn't matter, it will make it feel more balanced.

Otherwise - Good Job. Very entertaining.

PS: Same advise for Kingkano & friends thread. Post some reports where you were attacked.

They didnt attack and just ran away from their clan and joined Templiers. They sent some small merc attacks but never managed to kill main army or rob a capital of our player.

They can't attack you because your clan stays online almost 24/7.

Are you in the mood for a victory parade?
