Actually, when I wrote this I did not have your glorious, and beloved Fisdnar in mind. I can only beg your pardon, a thousand times over.

I really respect what you do, and the looms that you have. For real though.

If villages are so easy to take, how come your faction did nothing but camp a castle for months?

And then, thousands of troops and several battles later, you guys only have 1 village to show for it.
I'm sorry I hurt your feelings cmp, I would feel pretty bad too if I was a useless no life virgin who spent his adulthood making video games LOL
its ok though, now i have more time to - all the posters i dont like
But I wrote a poem that I would like you all to read

And then, thousands of troops 10,000 and x several battles 6 later, you guys only have = 1 village to show for it.

Look out guys, we have a mathematician on the loose.

All I see here is you proving warborn's point. We attacked that one fief twice, and took it. After that the thousands of other men attacked during several battles at a castle, and have yet to have any luck taking it cuz guess what, castles are hard to take.

The funny thing about that,

Jona is quite right, but regardless, isolating a castle from the world is a valid tactic. So I'm not really sure what the problem is...

Fcc demands more chatter about FCC.

Looks like some situations are clearing up for us. Last war against your alliance we wanted to stay friendly so we sat passive and forgiving while you sent your armies to invade. Maybe this time we will show you the fun of attacking an active opponent.

In regards to HoC's attacks on New Unuzdaq Castle and New Amashke, we started taking those places even before the Gobblin Realm was a thing. If anything HoC was the first  to provide battles and XP against inactive but fortified fiefs, despite being 'broke, so crusty, disgusts me'. We took Amashke on the 3rd attempt, with the third being a walk-in because of the damage we had done before. Keep in mind too, that for our first attacked we had few friends and our roster was nearly 100% EU, and these were some of my first commands.  A mere 200 men sat in that village for days, and no one reinforced, no one attempted to take it...nothing. So we came back and now we own it.  As for Unuzdaq, we sent 3 armies up against Chaos's full-plate garrison. A castle that can only be attacked from one side, with fixed spikes and trenches in all but one location, a place where defenders can move outside of the map but attackers cannot reach, where siege towers are useless and the walls must be taken with ladders and steel. A place the Gobblins did not pay the price of blood for, but rather walked in as a transfer without losing a man, acquiring the remainders of the garrison after our 3 sieges.  Indeed, this so-called 'broke-ass faction', the faction that many mock and jive at, has done more in strat with more success against more opposition than any other in a very, very long time. And though we do not control Unuzdaq yet, we are not defeated; oh no.  For while our own forces and our allies' forces combined total to ~12,400 men sent against those walls alone, a whopping ~10,100 men, including the Chaos garrison, have defended those walls while we assailed them. After all was done, the garrison was less then 2,000 men, including pop of course.  So, Daruvian and onlookers everywhere, I show you these figures in truth, and even as I write I feel a change of opinion, for against the thick-shelled nut that is Unuzdaq with its endless plate and overwhelming number of defenders, we have gone nearly 1:1. NEARLY. But do not think this price has been paid in vain; oh no, we will return, and when we do take the castle, you will look on and see HoC soar higher than ever before. We are not out for conquest. There is no envy that compels us.  But with control of the area, every Gobblin army that dares enter our land with be smashed to fucking pieces and sent running to their mothers' breasts once more. Beware, Daruvian, lest you be caught holding limp-dick in hand; relent, for we will not.
Deliver prosperity to your people, honor to your House, glorious victory to your men, and sorrow to your enemies.

You've given a castle and a fief or two to them, and Anders was the person who originally took it.  I'm just thinking of ways you could utilize taking a shitty fief is all.

You forgot to mention that your last three attacks at Unuzdaq have been essentially field battles. You guys laid no ladders on the walls nor even set foot in the courtyard, you were to busy getting wrecked by the defenders at your own spawn and still going well below 1:1. I am interested to hear how you guys plan to "smash" us when you cannot even coordinate a remotely effective siege.

To be fair occitan gave them both those 2 villages for free and we were more than a bit upset about ambean, had armies ready to atatck 10 minutes away when theya attcked it, but we just let it rest just like we did with fenada and ayyike, because frankly we are nice guys and didnt feel like being dicks over some silly village.  Radoghir castle we sold to them as the first buyers.

I don't know why but I physically have trouble reading your posts.

Also don't try the "you're unintelligent" argument on me. I'm pretty sure we've all established that everyone playing this game ought to be in a mental institution.

Honestly if it were to better my faction, I would declare a crusade upon you just for having to rinse out my eyes after reading one of these unholy textual monstrosities.

Just hit the return key a couple of times and take out some of the unnecessary adjectives.

Please?
Bring me that ASS.

A castle that can only be attacked from one side, with fixed spikes and trenches in all but one location, a place where defenders can move outside of the map but attackers cannot reach, where siege towers are useless and the walls must be taken with ladders and steel. A place the Gobblins did not pay the price of blood for, but rather walked in as a transfer without losing a man, acquiring the remainders of the garrison after our 3 sieges.

I'd just like to point out that I don't think the castle had plate in it until we handed control over to the gobblins. Actually, some may have come from the unsuccessful attacking armies on previous assaults, but that heraldic transitional wasn't ours originally.

So, Daruvian and onlookers everywhere, I show you these figures in truth, and even as I write I feel a change of opinion, for against the thick-shelled nut that is Unuzdaq with its endless plate and overwhelming number of defenders, we have gone nearly 1:1. NEARLY.

What truth? When it was Chaos-owned you went about 0.5 to 1 (hardly 1:1) at Unuzdaq, being lenient and not counting tickets lost to timer/flag cap, and though your score oddly enough increased once the "endless plate" came into play and the place was owned by people who could afford to stock it with such gear, I suspect the improvement was because of the aggressive attack-based defensive strategy the gobblins employ, as per what Phantasmal said. But your score still didn't improve by that much.

I dunno, sitting pretty seems to be what you guys do best. Still, glad to see that you're interested in attacking a castle in addition to just stocking over ten thousand tickets inside of one you already own (one which, by the way, you yourself did not pay the "blood price" for either, as it hasn't seen a single fight yet this strat).
