As opposed to allow two CoI realms to exist, with two capitals from which to recruit, capable of absorbing even more land, and both of them wanting to kill you? No thanks. Besides, I want my city back.

Kill? Please, you wound us. If you convert, we're very nice people ;)

Don't count out SoA just yet. You guys seem to be assuming that all the Fontan players will just rage-quit the moment Fontan dies.  ;D

They couldn't beat sirion when they were in Fontan. Why should we think they would do any better after they have moved to a poorer realm that is even harder to defend, and has less allies?

This wouldn't be the first time SoA might be in a situation where there capital is burning. But who knows if Sirion even has the motivation to follow through and actually destroy Fontan and possibly SoA. I don't really care either way since food trading earns me money no matter what.

Well I know for sure Sirion will destroy SoA because they want to rebuild their old ally OR.

But new OR will probably be like DoA in my opinion. Since OR will owe everything about their recreation to Sirion.

Fontan will going to lose their capital soon and move to Ashforth... Now Sirion has to deal with 10k militia arg.

Depends on how you look at it. Fontan will have to pay and feed that militia, or it's gonna go *poof* :)

Hmm good point. With that many militia units in one city, most of income would go into paying them. With only one duchy, it won't be enough to maintain a big mobile army.

One thing though, Fontan and Asena have many dedicated nobles and will not easily give in to Sirion.

But whatever predictions are made, Battlemaster is like a good game of soccer. The ball is round, anything can happen.

And at the end, the Germans win?

A friendly match means nothing! Only FIFA world cup matters :)

Unless Ibladesh funds SoA, more nobles mean nothing. Sirion held off for this long b/c they had dedicated nobles who were well funded. Now that Fontan lost most of her duchies, Fontan cannot build up an army large enough to fight Sirion. SoA isn't much of a challenge once Fontan dies unless Westmoor kicks in.

You mean the cup they haven't won in 20 years?

Which is probably why I find it amusing that they lost to Australia, which is a second tier team at best.
