So today there was a strategus battle of Panos attacking Andswaru who had 1 troop.
Andswaru had 1 swaybacked sumpter horse and a rider who tried to stay alive for 14:40 (the time that the battle lasts) but after riding around for 13:30 the rider got kicked by Ninja_Khorin even though there weren't any rules that were broken. Defenders' job is to stay alive and the rider wasn't in any unreachable place. I'd say it was panos' fault that he didn't get any ranged weapons nor cavalry so it was his fault that he couldn't kill a rider.
Panos tried to banpoll the rider twice! for which he got kicked from the server by the pollkick for pollabuse. Yet the rider got kicked by an admin and Andswaru lost the battle because his only troop got kicked even though no rules have been broken. Andswaru lost battle, goods and his faithful swaybacked sumpter horse.
I feel disgusted. Fuck you admin and fuck you Panos, next time that you attack buy yourself proper equipment and don't run away to admins because you can't win a battle because your strategy sucks.
Kiss my ass and happy strat 4 you.
Defenders job is to survive till the battle is over.
EDIT: I humbly request the goods to be given back and the swaybacked sumpter as well.

Thank you for your comment, once again.
Let me explain once again:
I thought that if the attacking army retreats, it can't win the battle. Knowing that Panos would go over-confident, I expected him not take proper equipment and hoped for good map for riding (no river in the middle) so we can survive till the retreat of the attackers. So it was a legit tactic assuming that retreating army can't win the battle. If the battle was to last an hour of riding we wouldn't give a fuck and nobody would come, but it was ~14 minutes so we let it be. A fact that it was Panos' battle wasn't a priority but it made watching it from the spectator's seat a comedy.
All in all, nobody would be riding a horse if me or Andswaru knew that a retreating army can still win a battle and they must be killed to prevent it. Nobody cares enough to just come and ride to annoy Panos if the battle can't be won.
The topic was about admin's decision which, as I thought before, made attackers win a battle that could be won by defenders. As we know now, it was hardly possible. Same with Panos' banpoll, so considering that the battle can be won by defenders, kicking the only defender seemed to be poll abuse, so he got kicked for it.
What makes me wonder is how many players know that a retreating army can actually win a battle : Have never seen a battle in EU that a retreating army would win.
