Today, an attempted kill was made on Genevieve (#117) from Dark Claws (#206) of clan Alliance.
Because of this action from Dark Claws, the rest of Alliance will suffer.
Starting with Alliance's lowest ranked player, Abraxas (#502), a member of Alliance will be killed every 3 days.
Killing the parties at fault seems to have little effect on their behaviour, so the innocent will suffer until something changes.
Alliance have two choices:
Pay $20,000,000,000 in damages to clan SS and remove Dark Claws from their clan.
OR
Hire a third party to kill Dark Claws.
You have three days before Abraxas (#502) is killed. Killings will continue until either of the above is completed.
Regards,
Emperor Holbrook
This is Extortion.
Fair maiden are a bunch of criminals. Excess net policies etc. How about the server goes on strike.
Its only extortion when it's between individuals. In game, we are all supposed to be individual nations. So it's just diplomacy. Except Holbs is the Emp, so it's more like do what we say or else.
If I may ask, Did you not attack Genevieve yourself and did Peace Alliance not do the same? If you are trying to maintain an Empire why do you attack the ones you want us to pay for? It sounds completely illogical too me that FairMaid and SS are battling each other and you can't stop them. Do you not care how much damage they do to each other? Or do you merely think that we can pay for the damage YOU have done to your own. I might add they could even without your knowing turn on you, they may be friendly to you now....but not all good things last forever...they must come to an end sooner or later....In other words your Empire is disorganized and in chaos

This is no threat to you or anyone, merely a warning to you. Even if it was a threat, I pose no actual power to compete with you....

Groan...
Actually we attack each other for land.
Nothing more.
By doing a little damage we can create many time the amount we destroyed.
Thats the simple explanation
What Oblit said... also, there's a big difference between attacking for land, and a kill attempt. We do not take each other down to a few hundred acres.
Killing the weakest empires when you have most of the top 10 locked down aside from Alliance and I, what kind of horse poo is that? You're big boys, don't pick on tiny empires.
You threaten The Alliance with the death of it's lowest ranked player? Instead of the offending empire? Or the clans leadership?
You decide to kill the little sister when the older brother is at fault, when you full well know the little sister poses such a negligible threat to you.
A tactic breed purely to make your enemies fear you, you would rule by fear when fear itself rules you.
pathetic, nice job on ruining reg and everyone elses fun.
Maybe you shouldn't leave Genevieve so defenseless, eh?

Lol. What do I have that needs defending? Your incapabilities are enough defence for me thanks.
That's the third kill attempt on me in as many days, even I'm gunning for you guys to finally get it together and get the job done.
Why would you even bother trying to kill Gene? I mean, no offense, and I'm not saying they're a bad player, but they seem to be allergic to shields. Just cast murder a few times and save yourself the turns.
A Message from Dark Claws:
As a young but bold badger aproached me, I looked at him with concern.
"Josh the slayer, my wise counsler, what am I to do?"
He looked at me unbelieving "Rouse the troops and kill the closest to your rank, it'll work."
The next day I was hoping to restart the killing of the evil Genevire, or however you spell her name. But something at the forum post caught my eye.
I consulted my general
"Damage?" I asked.
Tears fell out of his eyes as he made his report.
"All rats died, and over 1,200,000 food was destroyed, over 15,000,000,000 was stolen and, and, look!" He pointed to the forum post.
"A DEATH OF MY CLAN MEMBER IN 1 DAY!" I yelled. I saw Josh the slayer. He was weeping too, all the vermin horde had noble intentions, and he was friends with them.
My networth half of what it was, my enemies multipyling, my army dead, my life trashed, and it was all because Hollbrook seized power. I sent an army messanger to him, he dares threaten my clan with death while his own army threatens me with death. And that was before Genvire or however you spell her name, was being beaten. I Felt the anger of my ancestors before me rise up. He thinks that my clan must die while she has already repaid us tenfold before the reign of Hollbrook started. And his clan still attacks me, leaving me still the one at fault. He thinks that he has enough nerve to kill me and my clan just because I evened out a score! And he thinks I am the evil one when he threatens my clan with death! And he even thinks that after poisioning and stealing from me, it's not enough. May god show me mercy as this bloodthirsty game commences, and the fight for true freedom, true liberty, and the end of a reign of terror start. Let us chant
Roll of thunder hear my cry
Over the waters by and by
Old and new clans come to beat me down
but I won't let them turn me around.
I have the sudden urge to perform some adult task or other, weird.

True, I ran out of turns, but only cause I wasn't planning on a kill run. Started knocking her down when I had 200 turns.

Which one is the best description of the in game empire?
The first two, but mostly the second.
Your battlefield healers quickly move around the battlefield, healing the injured.
Your Army breaks through The Bonus Target's defenses and captures 1 Acres of Land! In the effort, you lost:
83 Stoats
In their defense, The Bonus Target lost:
The Bonus Target (#47) has been destroyed!
The Resistance gives no quarter, anyone supporting the Emperor has been proscribed a death sentence.
Erm.... Right back atcha?
Unfortunately my kill count reset. I'll have to get back to work.
Solo kills are so much sweeter though.
Eh, there was a city readout bug, which really confused me at the beginning of my run. Besides, you had over 40k. I couldn't handle it solo, it was really disappointing.
Got you to 200 acres, but unfortunately the last 200 are the hardest.
Lack of loyalty as well.
Yay for Genevieve!
wow
me again?
you just can't get enough of me can you Jusky :-*
I'll keep coming back, you can keep devoting your turns and resources to killing me off
Deal?
Your city names angered me Gorak. I plan on killing any and every one of you who I can, you happened to be available.
I like the way you think, Juska.
oh lawd the drama done begun yo
I'll have to start getting creative with my city names ;)

Bravo...would you like a cookie?
Keep it. Share it amongst your fellow resistance members.
It'll seem like a lot to them.
On a side note, I trust you realise why you were killed? (Kill attempt on Gen, killing Ullr).
Of course I realize I was killed. It makes future events much easier to bring about, so thank you.
K
Resistance
Let me spell this out for you.
We have unlimited resources. There is no way for you to win a war of attrition. Your little kill war is completely futile. Stop being boring and mount some sort of effective resistance.
Shadow is right you know. A war of attrition will not work. We're all top players, and killing us is not a deterrent. We can recover from kill pretty dang quick, and wouldn't even need many resources to do so.
If the Resistance were all to work together more, Im sure they could do some pretty serious damage guys. *Krowdon signing out of topic*
Well, I would hope so, as up till now, we haven't gotten much resistance at all. The most damaging kill was Ashy, and she's already back in the top ten.
my question, can you give me an exact number of people who are in this super team?
Before you wanna go running people down about the war. Think about how much of a mega advantage you all have. You joined nearly everyone in the server together to fight against a select few that you've excluded.
I ignore all the Heroic statements ya's pull out. You've done little more than bribe a divided server to gain position. Then you've encouraged a resistance that would stand little chance catching up. So many pet dogs would make it harder to lose than claim emperorship.
If i was working with, Penthouse Ninja, Nova, Alazar, Snare, Briar and Volkov we would take over.
You've used maximum firepower and little skills.
...And you deleted on day one.
This is how it is. Holby isn't going anywhere.
At any given run, there are no more people helping Holby than half the number of resistors. You are not that far outnumbered.

Depends if you were to start with an advantage or not. If you's started from level pegging, that team wouldn't get far against the people you've excluded.
Right now all of the following people could make up the resistance.
Sev, Juska, Alazar, Penthouse Ninja, Briar, Nova, Death, Lonewolf, Ungatt... + about 20 others.
So you're only excuse really would be lack of teamwork.
By giving up, you're admitting that we are more skilled...because you clearly have us outnumbered...which means it must be only our skill that is scaring you away from putting up a fight ::)
I have no interest in investing time and effort into pulling 15+ people together to pool net, suicide Holby enough to atk op him and then murder him (or a combo).
What I do have the interest in doing is notifying a server that is there is some kind of fight going on, which I've done and I've achieved results if meager. You should realize that half the game never comes to the forums.
You want to brag about how good you are? Leave your net stores clanned and defend them then.
Once Holbs hits 20 bil NW, we might just do so.

I haven't been attacked once since taking Emp. Not once. If no-one has attacked me, having started at 6 bil Net lower than I am now, how does unlimited attacks and no losses change things?
Our clan has unlimited resources, of which I hold the majority. I need only one other person to run. Even if you kill one of us every single day, it still won't be enough to stop me. The clan doesn't have to create any resources for me to run, we started with those before we locked.
I could plan and execute a takedown in my sleep. I would have thought the same could be said for most of the players here. But the reason no-one has tried to properly defeat us, is because they're afraid both of failing and of the repercussions. It's easier for you, Juska, to kill someone than to formulate a plan that could fail. This is the easy way out for you. Planning anything on a grander scale is out of your comfort zone. The same can be said for the rest of the resistance. The weight of the names behind Fair Maiden and SS scares everyone away from leadership and responsibility. Those who really wish to take us down, but lack the know how, have no leader to direct them. Which is a shame, because we make up only a small percentage of the total number of players in the server.
Sevz, the other big talker here, knows he can't do anything solo, as we'd take him out, and he can't bear failing. So he is unlikely to be the leader the resistance needs.
Takedowns are elementary, but the fear is that you're all going to stuff it up. So you'll continue to lay down and let it happen. That's fine by me, it means I have more than just my immediate team to thank for my success.

Why not? It wouldn't take anything close to 15 people. It could probably be done with 3.

You are completely wrong there my friend...It just plans take time to execute. ;)

And this is total nonsense. Yo cheese done slid of your cracker son. Do you really think we're just gonna lay about and do nothing?
QuoteYou are completely wrong there my friend...It just plans take time to execute.
They shouldn't. A proper takedown can be done in, at most, 3 days.
QuoteAnd this is total nonsense. Yo cheese done slid of your cracker son. Do you really think we're just gonna lay about and do nothing?
That's all you've done so far, so I don't really see how is not justified in thinking so.
Holby, no one has attacked you because no one can attack you. Your empire is too big. Even if someone could desertions would be over 10% each attack.
I love how you guys tell me kills are useless when you tried to kill me once and failed and then managed to kill me, if they are useless why try? Why kill me? Why threaten members of The Alliance with dying?
You are exactly right Holby, killing you guys is the easy path. I didn't even have to organize kill runs on the ones I got, I just logged in and killed them. If every person not on your side had the same mentality/skill as me you guys would all be dead. Two kills by me, one by Briar. 3 kills by two people, 15 people could kill 8 players easily all playing solo just like I'm doing.
I have zero interest in leading a team to preform a takedown, the only reason I'm even doing what I'm doing is because I was sick of you guys talking. I have no interest in formulating plans and getting people together. Odds are people don't show up, or don't know what they are doing or one of you logs in and stops us. I find it funny how people people are so distancing themselves from me, if someone has a plan tell me, I'll help. The fact was no one had a plan and so I put into motion the only one I was willing to do.
Enjoy the fact you are winning and stop bawling about how easy it would be for you not to be.

We have to take down someone with 13 bil net...I think itll take a wee bit longer than 3 days. Plus I have to create a team which took me a day or two itself.
Juska
the fact is, if it wasn't for our big talk, and threats and whatnot in the forums, we'd still be running completely unopposed. Which was boring.

Well, Juska sounds eager enough.

To kill you guys yea and and theres about a dozen other people that think thats the only way to beat you guys. No matter how many times I tell them we need to work together to take out holbrook they cant be convinced.
Well, that's too bad.
Yes it is cuz now im gonna have to beat you guys with less people and less skill. :wink:
kinda lame that it took so many of you to land lock, 1/2 the active server and 80% of the seasoned vets..... you guys are tough "i tell ya what" and holby noone would have attacked you and broke, just a waist of our times.... and a lesson should be learned.... ppl playing this game need to be more invested in there clans with active strats.

When my clanmates sent you to me for instructions, I couldn't really tell you about that part of the plan...which is why you quit KOTW, as it appeared to you that I was being a lazy leader and that we weren't achieving anything...but in reality I was very busy...just with something I couldn't tell you about at the time :wink:
Imediately prior to that, KOTW had spent a couple of months cloaking 5bil net on a fox in an emp attempt.
Perhaps other people

And I also managed to cloak 1bil net before without being noticed in reg, during a war, as part of a clan involved. Sometimes looks can be deciveing.
again then why would you have me as a clan member and not tell me.... bad leadership, and again back to my original point..... be more invested.

I don't think even his other clan-mates knew. The 4.5 tril cash was made by a small circle of people that were absolutely trusted.

As we keep pointing out, we are less than 1/4 of the active server, and there are plenty of seasoned vets who are around, but don't seem to be doing anything. The original list we posted was 9 people long! Since when is 9 out of 40 equal to 50%???

And you guys have the majority of skill on your side. Theres only a handfull of people with skill that arent with you and most of them WONT come together to take you guys down.
