Sidekicksol's Epic Story
Sidekicksol
Kansas City, Kansas
Our friend Q did some calculations. This is what he has come up with:
He's lost over 4500 troops. 111 catapults, 2 sentors, and his hero twice. TOTAL COST 3.9 million
oh my gI told you all i would make it! Okay, so, if i leave you out or there is something i need to change, comment quick so i can edit it because i cant after a certain amount of time. Enjoy!
CHAPTER ONE
We begin on March 20th, at 7:56 PM when Peleus assaulted me from his nearest village, Mykenae. My 300 troops were killed instantly, whilst he suffered 76 cavalry in losses. This happened while i was gone, so i had no idea of the attack until later that night. The next morning, 3/21/08, at 5:20 A.M., he attacked again, destroying my residence and city wall and suffering a 1 cavalry loss. I was awake, about to sleep when this happened, and i went into a panic. 3 minutes later, my loyalty was lowered to 86 with a senator. The war had begun, the costs were high for me. He still had no idea, i, {IC}, and my personally ally would cost him over 2 million resources.
CHAPTER TWO
From this point, attacks reoccurred often, coming from several different cities. My loyalty was lowered to 70. Then to 53. A level 10 iron mine was destroyed, and as was the residence i had rebuilt. I started calling on {IC} around this time, asking for help, starting in the thread "I Need Troops" and "Cya Guys." He finally brought me to my knees. 33 loyalty. I prayed for my alliance friends to come to my aid.
CHAPTER THREE
At 2:31 PM, i had begun my all night rager, which would continue into the early hours of the next day. My loyalty was now at a dooming 18%. At 5:11, my prayers were answered. 1800 macemen, 215 spearmen, and 350 cavalry from Qch2002 arrived, but were slaughtered. This told him i was going to put up a fight, and he started talking to me in IGM's. It was now apparent there would be no end, and he would have my village at any cost. He lost 700 infantry, 300 cavalry, 81 catapults and a senator. We thought it would set him back.
CHAPTER FOUR
Another attack followed, pillaging my resources. At 7:37 P.m., Olympia attacked me, losing ALL of its troops due to various reinforcements. 300 infantry, 25 cavalry were lost, and 1/2 of the my current defenders were culled. 5 minutes later, another attack came. His army was destroyed, 705 legionnaires dead. My defenders were now down to less than 35 cavalry and 150 infantry.
CHAPTER FIVE
One minute later, an attack from Delphi arrives, slaughtering 50 of his cavalry and 150 of his infantry, and leaving me defenseless. 5 minutes later, another pillaging force arrived, trying to starve me. 15 minutes following that, Corinth attacked, making my city wall into rubble, destroying all reinforcements, and losing 33 cavalry, 100 infantry, 3 rams.
CHAPTER SIX
5 minutes after the previous attack, at 8:21 PM, my loyalty was lowered to 5. I was starting to get frantic, I was planning what race i would be when i restarted. It was only then, that i got hope. Hope came in the form of 3000 macemen, 1400 druidriders, and 1000 haeduans. Backed by Qch2002 reassuring me over AIM that i would be okay, and giving me a break, taking over management, i finally felt secure. Below are the first battle reports of my new reinforcements.

CHAPTER SEVEN
These were the first two attacks against a surprise he had met in my village. 7 more would follow. This was the ultimate stress test, as it was approaching 22 hours of me being awake, managing wheat shipments from all of you, so graciously timed perfect and amounted correctly. At 3:31 am, it was over. I had killed 3000 infantry, 1000 cavalry, 120 catapults, and another senator.
I stayed up until 9 a.m., backed by Skryking helping me get through it on aim, and finally Q, waking up around that time. I slept for 30 minutes, to find out i had practice at 10:30, so downing a Coke and licking aftershave off my lips, i went to go condition. I finally collapsed at 12. It had been 29 hours of being raided and managing wheat. I dont know how i stayed up, whether it was the supply of caffiene, or the 2 liter of Mountain Dew i downed at 8, i had survived.
CHAPTER EIGHT
At 1:14 PM on March 23, an attack, by Peleus, was sent at me, from another quadrant. I really feel as if he is this confident it will be huge... we shall see. He knows what he is facing, but only i know what i have lying in wait. My village is not the only place with troops.
The story still continues.
*this was a dramatization, but very close to the original story.

Although. I was surprised after sending you 500 Praetorians and 100 Legionnaires, you sent them back to me as soon as they arrived to you. I knew you must have had a pretty damn good force going when you did that.
Holy crap, that could fight off ANYTHING he throws at you, as long as it wasn't a massive force :wow:
Doh. Sorry! :o
besides, Peleus destroyed resource fields lots, so that side is done for you
and the granary is too big for him to get for free.
stuff like that
you can only know by being a sitter or being told EXACTLY what was there...
You're almost totally turned into a Peleus slave. What can he do that hasn't already done already. I'm done as your sitter. Remember that we're your alliance. Please rely on us to protect you and help you survive in this game. You've made it very tough to protect you and Peleus will always have the upper hand. He may well ask for favors that amount to becoming a trader or spy.
