Guys --

Below is the conversation I had with 84/41.  I'm still suspicious, since his last message came about 2 minutes before the Hunters Hut attack.    (start from the bottom)

Steve, let us know if he attacks you again; if he does then, well, IT'S WAR.

--------------------------
Glad to have you as friend rather than foe.

I haven't played on this server before, I've mostly played on the European side. I usually have a couple of games going at the same time. How about you?

Ah, I see the issue. I was going from the position of who would be able to attack you, not the entire membership. So, to be 100% clear: There are 6 of us that are willing and able to come to his aid.

Hello, and thanks for responding.

If I gave you the names or locations of the actual 6, you might simply say that they were chosen at random. Also, right now there is no way in game terms that it could be proved to you that we are working together. Further, that intelligence information could subject them to your attacks, were you so inclined. I will say that of the 6 of us, I am the furthest away.

Our strategy is to add strong members to our alliance rather than start a war early in the game. You fit into the category of a strong player that we would rather recruit than destroy, which is why we contacted you rather than just starting our attacks.

Most of us were recruited in the same way that we are now trying to recruit you. Since we have chosen to contact you, the choice is now completely yours as to what the future holds.

We look forward to your response.

Please cease your attacks on Chief. We seek peace with you. There are 6 of us who will begin to attack you if you continue.

ha ha ha... I love it!

My part of the map is really quiet.  Several similar position villages, but no one is attacking each other.  My opinion, they are building building building building and then BOOOM!

I think this guy is interested in joining our alliance...that would truly be a diplomatic success story if he did!

I hope you are raiding them!!!  If they aren't doing anything, they could be ripe for the picking!

I'm good with him not attacking me anymore.  Even though he wouldn't be able to find any of my resources in my level 6 cranny!

Yes I have raided nearly 10,000 resources since starting.  My area is heating up though.

spectacular!

I made an attack for the alliance... i lost all my forces... oops

I still haven't built up my forces to the level that I had before my losses.  Good luck.  Maybe if you stay with that alliance, we might be able to work together in the near future.  Might be cool!  Have your alliance leader contact Venture.  Or I guess you could and put it to the "boss".
