Pretty good topic here. I haven't played in the externals in a bit so here goes. "Life is like a box of chocolates" LOL, Just kidding, won't be using any forest gump references today. This is a new war technically, but I believe it was planned long long ago by some of the other alliances. When NB's was here, they were a VERY strong opponent. I'm positive they were the best attacking alliance in this world. Their ability and talent was unmatched 1 on 1. So to counter this we made a coalition. We were then able to turn the tides of that war and the rest is history. During that period of time though is when alot of what is happening now was planned. It's no secret that the musks and NB's were mostly all 1 alliance in abdera and we were a tuff crew to handle. We proved that by winning both all our wars and a clean sweep of all 7 wonders. So together as Eviction Notice we were unbeatable. Flat out. Of course when we came to this world and were 2 seperate alliances fueding with each other, it would cause alot of interest from all the other alliances that have battled EN in previous worlds. This was the 1st world in a long time where a pure juggernaut alliance did not exsist. So, that being said, since NB's was clearly the biggest threat, it was easy to form a coalition against them. They ended up leaving this world for reasons of their own. That left only one half of what was in previous worlds "Eviction Notice". Of course the Bees and everyone else are gonna chose to war us. We are all that is left of the alliance they have wanted to destroy since it formed years ago. Of course not all of us are former EN players, but enough are. So, I honestly think that from the beginning, the rest of the world viewed this scenareo as their best shot at getting some revenge against a foe they have wanted to defeat for years. All the city swapping that was done, all the pacts and naps and coalitions, all of it was part of the grand scheme to get exactly where we are now. So, although the war is new, it is also very old. So I have no trouble understanding why we are where we are now.
To add to this, the Bloods also built the wonders with us in abdera and were a big part of our win there. This caused some bad blood between them and some of the alliances that are here now too. So that is another lil morsel that adds to the reasons the other alliances chose to war us during wonders. It all makes perfect sense really.
