Aurvandil's War Machine

Can anyone confirm that such a tiny realm can become the continental superpower in a legit way? Are each and every one of them leaching other continent's gold?

I'm not fighting them, and barely have any contact with them, but this just seems suspicious.

Wow...That's a huge jump. The icing on the cake is that the realm's income is second to last, and the income per character is last.

Well, if you think they're abusing the game, take it to the Magistrates. Should make for some interesting discussion, eh?

Uh...how does one file a complaint against a realm?

Were it not for the recent battles, they'd have passed the 30k CS mark.

In Fheuv'n, we had more regions and I was constantly pumping hundreds of gold into it, and we were lucky to reach the 10k mark once and a while. Sure, I think I was the only one to call in family gold consistently, but still. I had max gold in my family and well-established characters to back me up, I doubt others can afford such things in a sustainable manner. And yet, Auvandil has been surprising with their ever-increasing might.

It just reeks of Thulsoma's exploits. And these ARE the same guys, aren't they? No offense to the players who play there, but I've never seen anyone achieve such things in a legitimate way before.

Accuse them of what? I have no proof to bring to the magistrates. Magistrates have no investigation powers. To the titans, perhaps...

I'm not sure WHAT they are doing, that's the thing. I don't want to assume they are cheating, as the only known way to accumulate such power was fixed after Thulsoma, but I'm just wondering if people can REALLY be that damn good at leaching other continents for gold of if its something else.

File against the ruler. If something comes out of it, Tom can sort out any actual punishment needed.

Scary, huh?

Many of them are. And Averoth, too. And you saw what it took to take down Thulsoma and Averoth. Combined armies of Morek, Astrum, Corsanctum, Libero, and even Summerdale were required to breach those citadels and the massive troops they had. So, any chance that the Lurias can patch up their differences and recruit a 50K CS army before the Aurvandili can make it that far? How about the Veinsormoot? (And don't forget the verbal abuse they will heap upon you for getting together a coalition to deal with them... ::) )

I don't know. What do you think they are doing?

(I'm not disagreeing you. It smells fishy to me, too. But I don't have any "proof" of anything, either.)

No idea what they could be doing. Hence why I ask here, to see what others think. The only things I could think of that could grant such might is, as far as I know, no longer possible.

Sacha

Lurians patching up their differences? Which Dwilight have /you/ been playing on, Indirik?

Even if Luria and Fissoa united I doubt we could field a force that would be able to take them on offensively. We might JUST manage a defense, but then the realm has almost 100% movement of there 41 nobles from all reports. I somehow doubt we would have the same.

Now if Luria and the Moot allied, and the two coalitions worked together, maybe. But could you imagine the co-ordination nightmare?

I'd rather use Aurvandil to bash on the Zuma, personally. Aurvandil scares me more than the Zuma does, and annoys me far, far less. And they both have shady ways of gaining their might.

That would be interesting. I'm sure there are people already trying to work out if they can set the Zuma against Aurvandil. If you have that sort of influence over Aurvandil go for it. Personally I think it is extremely unlikely.

I don't have any influence over Aurvandil. I doubt anyone does.

What fascinates me is 41 nobles working like a single mind, it takes me ages even to get 27 nobles to recruit and have enough gold to make through the week, either they are all pro's or all the same person because I honestly dont see how they can do it so fast and so precise.
