I stay around 3-4 months into w5 now 2 year ago. I lose my acc from 80k till 1 vills of 10k, because duke betray all and give all rest of us to be eat by main tribe. I was noob at that time, but I do have my way to handle things. You know who was the one who noble me? A neibough that my troops save him from death into past..
So I 'close' my eye and let me to 'rim me' (you cannot defend good since he had 400k points and tribe friends of 120 mil all near me and they clear my units)
But you know what was strange.. the last vill he never taken!
HE was piss off. he call tribe support so in end he and 6 pal of his crush around 120 nukes to my little vills.
I do not stand out. I get my old duke appologise. I force the hand of his gf, to send defence to me at 100h distance. I made that some far enemies of that tribe to send me defence.. I only need 90k inside to laugh that guy and to remind him daily who I was. Each week, friday night was nightmare for him. He need to wake up and to see 3-4 vills of him noble by me. And i was make sure to put some units from other people enough to make him to lose nobles while he retake.
In 2 months that guy quit game (I not say because of me, but i do give him a strong message why people should not step on his honor and not to betray people who aid you in past !)
So did I win with that vills of 1k? You bet i win. I win by being the only RED spot from all that middle of empire (all my words can be verify , I do not lie)

In the end, people who target me there admit my skills and turn to be friend of mine. Even aid with language translation into Turk
And another story for you Ampac.. there is around 4-5 month while my enemies tribe in w4 try to rim a friend inside some far insolate cluster of him. He do have a max total of 200 vills (k20 -35), They still not taken. while all people say to him to give up. Why? Because who have blood into his heart never give up.
I know i never give up. And where all say is situation with no solution, I'm there fighting more hard then usually. If I'm creazy? Probably am.. but I not forgot we play a game here. And that will be my passion: not to give up. Like i say the fight is all that matter.
I form lots of accounts on tw, but never take 1 account to distory and delete it. I will reserve only this right: to delete account i build from 119p, if i will be in situation when i see others mates don't desirve to have it.
