THE CRUSADE BEGINS!

[Millzy]

House 1 didn't collapse house 9, the inevitability that the second age is coming is what started it, power hungry farmers all joining together to form one boring world where they can farm in peace.

Sadly, wars are won with monks and not military, whoever has the biggest faith pool can win anything, and with house 1 outnumbering us 3 to 1, we never stood a chance with monks.

The second age was very disheartening for us but what actually collapsed house 9 and caused alot of our main fighters to quit which led to chain reactions of factions leaving etc was the new cards, the fact that firefly is making monks even stronger, a x4 monk card? seriously? pretty much most of our fighters quit because of this update, alot of us didn't rely on cards and just lived on the 2 cards a day but now, whoever is willing to invest the money in to the game can do anything, Villages should be easier to raze not harder.

- Vacation mode (up to 30 days of immunity + free faith built)
- The Second Age (Ability to monk counties, Parishes rendered useless military wise)
- New cards (4x monking, 2x tunnelers, x1.8 stone towers, 1.4x troops on castle walls etc)

the last few updates have all weakened the military aspect of the game and strengthened the monk aspect...


I hope everyone has fun in the second age since House 1 plans to regroup again <---- coming from house 1 themselves

Is anyone really surprised that krogith is leaving people for dead? I mean jesus, he's been one of the most selfish players I've ever had the displeasure of following....

[Voninski]

Skitty,

would a comparison between Krogith and Kree Gor be reasonable? Both the cause of war with H1, both stay IDed untill they run out of faith then leave their members to deal with the rest.

There are screen shots of Krogith monking his own parish while H1 took out 5 of silvo's villages over a 3 hour period. No one in House 1 would ever let that happen.

[thekpd]

Yeah.... I would spend all 74,212 faith points I have to protect players in my house if I needed to...

[Leanitus]

they have no other choice.. Korgith dethroned an on vm i don't think he's ever coming off. lol

Only 1 faction in house 9 displayed excellent form and timing, Braveheart warriors.

Some of you must have been on vacation mode when things went down, or maybe getting another world mixed up with W5. Making up reasons as to how and why things happened to satisfy your broken ego?

People left House 9 because they were lied to and told things about House 1 that weren't and/or didn't come true.
1) House 1 didn't force anyone to do anything and still doesn't. We work under the umbrella of mutual respect, always have. That's why House 1 was taken over by us (to get away from that) and how we run it to date. As players talked to us and figured out that we weren't the ogres that Krogith painted, they lost faith in Krogith's rambling preaching.
2) House 1 wasn't the push over that Krogith proclaimed. The first strike that was supposed to surprise H1 members and make them quit or switch sides failed miserably. As did the second and third attempts. On top of that House 1 pushed back and started messin' with House 9 players in their back yard, forcing the game to be played in H9 home territory. Something Krogith said wouldn't ever happen, not at all how Krogith said it would go down.
3) Only 1 faction in house 9 displayed excellent form and timing, Braveheart warriors. Everything else came as uncoordinated attacks. Easily countered or defeated. Proof of that is on the map.
4) Krogith's proclaimed support from other houses faded and blew away in the dust. Western Isles and Skye presented a front that he hadn't expected and the complete inability of H15 and H13 to help in any way made it a a one sided war.
5) Krogith saw his top fighters walk away over all the lack of ability and effort put in by the other factions and lack of any real progress. Krogith then went on vacation. Without a leader and without any coordinated fighting ability left, the rest of the house very quickly collapsed.

War continues now with the remaining angry and emotional players moving into house 15 ( I still get mail from some of them in all caps "DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM!!??"). The ones who will fight to the last breath and throw away their friends resources just to get a swipe in to make themselves feel better. The fight is still in their backyard and nowhere else. A completely defensive war with no coordinated offense at all.

Stop trying to revise history. House 1 walked away with another war success in a long string of back to back wars that no one said could be done. House 1 controls all of the king seats something everyone said would stretch players too thin to be able to do. Looks pretty stable to me with it all red and we never even had a goal of controlling the Scottish kingship to begin with. We didn't start the war with House 9, but I am comfortable in saying that we definitely finished it.

Wow I have never in my whole time on stronghold kingdoms read such inaccurate information, everything you have said in this thread you made up completely, we went into the house 1 war knowing that the chances we were going to lose were very high, we did it for one last chance if people wanted to try and liven up this world once again, stop the second age and allow other houses to rise up again. Clearly that didn't happen people were to scared to get involved due to how big house 1 is now, you control around six houses yet you parade around like you were a small house and you have just defeated a house 50 times your size.

Krogith was a fantastic leader, he was the longest lasting house marshall on this world, he never once said house 1 was going to be a push over, he never once betrayed any of us, before Krogith quit nobody deserted him because they knew he was a great leader, when he quit he quit with many of his friends, some of this worlds finest warriors - not because he couldn't handle the house 1 war, it was because of the second age and the new cards, pretty much the whole of Oops and OhSnap quit because of this, they were the original house 9 warriors that stood against house 11 and her allies outnumbered 10 to 1.

After It was announced that Krogith quit, a couple of factions left, yes one of our best factions left 'Braveheart Warriors' and I was speaking to Krogith the other day and I showed him what Skitty had said within this thread, he had never felt so betrayed especially sinc e what Skitty said was extremely hipocritical and full of lies.

The majority of people who wanted to continue to fight house 1 moved over to house 15 to unite with the members within that house currently fighting house 1, probably one of the best options we had available, Blitzenn you knew nothing about our house and I can tell by the propaganda you have spewed out on this forum thread - Literally ALL respect has been lost for you.

Congratulations Blitzenn the majority of your wars you outnumbered the enemy 3-5 to 1, don't act like you're anything special

Skitty had said within this thread, he had never felt so betrayed especially sinc e what Skitty said was extremely hipocritical and full of lies.

Before you point the finger at someone else, think about things you used to say behind Krogith's back to me in TS.

Skitty was clearly voicing a reasonable frustration at the ludicrous events surrounding his VM.

[Millzy]

at least skitty and those guys stuck around to fight

LOL, you serious? dropped out straight away, then joined house 1, grow a spine

[rubba]

seems like the h1 jihad has started to work(seems like history repeats itself regarding every other crusade ever put out there)
