One of our cities was recently taken by Abrose (TS) after a huge wave of TD attacks.
Is that what you call "supporting them in their endeavour"?
I call it a pact and a shared tab.
Ok I have to return to the Externals to comment on this, As one of the players who was involved in this op I feel I need to comment on it.
But first in regards to the shared tab, We have a shared support tab with TS and OL... So what? Any of the ZT members who joined us then returned back to ZT will confirm this. The reason for this is that we assist them with support and vice-versa that is the extent of our shared tabs with them. This was done so we could protect smaller players from attacks as we are intent on protecting the smaller alliances to keep their players active and playing the game since that was a concern raised in regards to falling population numbers a while ago. It is simply us honouring our commitments to protect smaller players and the smaller alliances. The only agreed upon terms between TD and TS was a NAP with a shared SOS tab this was so we could ensure the defence of these smaller players and keep them active and growing without fear of being attacked by TD. It was a pledge on our peace on our part and our attempt to keep this server open, We have the same arrangement with IMOG however we don't share a SOS tab with them yet. As was acknowledged with the Gyazo link I gave Mike of my city 01 Albion and the TS city right next door, They are not painted Green to us. But all of our members are aware that a peace exists between us. Again something that any of those who joined us then returned to ZT will be happy to confirm.
Now as for the Op on Sir Dorn, As one of the players invovled in this operation I just have to comment on it. The idea was that as ZT has been farming TS at will for some time we arranged it so that TS could have a little payback and myself, KingKev, Blagardo and a few others set about achieving that for them. This was done to give both a morale boost to TS and to show them that we are committed to assisting them and allowing them to grow and remain active. It also served as a nice kick in the teeth of ZT for a TS member to take a city from an active ZT player. Nice to see that this feat didnt go unnoticed..
I shall now return to my self imposed Exile from the Grepo Forums.
