Well to be honest I had little to no respect for HDR until a few weeks back..
An Underworld member I had been skirmishing with notified me that he would be quitting the world and although we had been fighting each other as enemies for nearly 3 months he had cleared all his villages and gifted them to me
Now I noticed he had about 20 villages deep in HDR Territory on the south border of K21, seeing this as a easy expansion opportunity i nobled 20 villages up dead in the middle of HDR territory, at first it was easier than i thought it would be, picking off HDR villages anywhere and everywhere I could and within a few days my cluster was up to 30
However after about a week i started to receive a few incomings, I was none too worried seeing as I had nearly every village stacked with tribal support, however i was surprised to log in the next day and have nearly 1000 incomings from up to 5 different HDR players, I only lost one village but gained over 10 million ODD which was almost double the total amount of ODD I had gained in 5 months in a span of only two days.
The thing was even after such a crushing defeat, the attackers losing over 200 full nukes, they continued to change up strategies and co-ordinate together attacking relentlessly, There hasn't been a single day in the last month I have not had less than 200 incomings.
It's a shame a few members of HDR ruin their tribe reputation with bad PnP when HDR is home to a lot of skilled players that are largely unknown and under-rated
With that I salute HDR in their defeat to us, looking forward to working together
Cheers
