Are you going to say that SOTO, Band Of Brothers, and 300spartans don't have a shared forum and regularly support each other against NN sieges or cities? I hope not.
As for the good players in o55 core, it is true we were left out of targets, but all of us have either moved south to fight PP and Suntzu, or east to fight your pact of 3 alliances. We have actually been pretty settled with several cities in those front-lines now.
And finally, you talking about alliances merging is like pot calling the kettle black. Yes NoE merged with VW, but so did Shield and Outcasts, so what the hell is the difference, except our two alliances had far better players? And the rest of the alliances are pacted anyway against NN, the ones i mentioned on my past post, you can't see cities being taken against each other forcefully.
