Lol, maybe Zero will kick him, then {IC} can swarm his abandoned ass and make him delete his account without worry of repercussions from Zero. *crosses fingers*
So, I was chatting with Fourstar and Peleus came up for some reason... I gave Fourstar the run down on the stupidity of Peleus and how's wasted over 8 million over the last day or so. THEN I showed him the battle log for Aries....
I've requested that Deutcher join IC's forum and he's never replied or joined. I think his lack of English may be the reason. I know nothing about Deutcher's village so I am unable to give good numbers on wheat or storage levels.
So do we know what the situation is with Peleus and Deutcher's "German Village" ?
I understand he was running at something like -6000 wheat/hr so assume there is a large greeting party there.
Should be good, I just sent 40k off a little while ago. It's likely that Peleus will not be back but just in case, we'll leave the reins in place until tomorrow. Send smaller staggered shipments throughout the day if you can to cover your troops for a 24 hr period. I also have way too much wheat now from losing a crap load of troops, so we really needn't worry to much about that deficit.
Now, another thing. Deutscher does not understand english well at all. I cannot communicate with him. I will not easily be able to get the info and status of incoming attacks on him, yesterday was a prime example of this breakdown. The first time he got attacked and we moved to reinforce him, he didn't even reply to my request for info on attack times, granary status and limit, etc. He couldn't understand what I was asking. We need to recruit an interpreter into our team to be the go between, otherwise, coordination will always be sloppy at best for him. Maybe for the time being, one of us can sit for him so we'll know what's going on (I can't, already sitting for two people).
We need to find a solution or ask that he find an alliance that speaks German This is a recipe for disaster. I would not take kindly to my thousand cavalry starving to death.
he may be asking for it now...
even though it was just 5 scouts and obviously a noobish effort under any circumstances, Peleus may be annoyed nonetheless...
i can see it now:
"you wanna see how many troops i have? here you go, see them for yourself!"

Problem with that is a number of us have lent him re-enforcements !
I hate to blame failure on language but it was already tough. This IS a UK server... I would never join a German server and expect them to speak English. But I'm an arrogant American.
I will message him and let him know that scouting Peleus was not smart. We have already lost over 10,000 troops to Peleus (and he lost way more though ) and we will not be part of escalation of the conflict.
I will remove him from the Alliance IF no one STRONGLY disagrees. I will message and remove him in 6 hrs otherwise. Cool?
Pull'm. That's my vote. I'll message him in an hour and let him know he's on his own. I hate to do it but he's not helping the alliance and that is what we need to be working towards.

it seems a few big guys got their commupances, Showtime, leader of Zero, taking quite a fabulous hit
"first player with 50 villages"

skryking, I'll keep that in mind for future problem spots.
I understand he was running at something like -6000 wheat/hr so assume there is a large greeting party there.
My 500 level 20 Praetorians are en-route to re-enforce in 5hr 32m from now.
Will that cause him a problem.
Does he need wheat ?
How much can he hold ?
I want to help as I've missed the action since Saracen1 and 2 were steamrollered by Godsend and Silksvarten

Be careful how you choose your words...he probably will not understand you.
I'll post a simple message so you'll get the idea. Maybe two.

Are we deliberatly trying to provoke him now or what ?

Language barrier + dumb moves = fail.
Your call, but if/when you do, let us know so we can all pull out together.

You know, I don't need my spearmen and paladins dead for no reason, thanks.
He's already sent mine on their way...
Well... A little birdy tells me that someone is hanging up their dunce cap and quitting Travian.
FYI... birdy = 80 foot wing span with 8 inch talons....
oh right, wait for it...
WOO!
