Nice map able1234au, thank you for posting it. You can really see the advancements of both the war and barb nobling far better than just posting stats. The unfortunate truth is RAIN had more core or rear line accounts quit than on our fronts. Accounts that had had received little to no fire from EVO at all with some quitting before the war even started or didn't bother to participate in it at all. There is not much choice but to noble them and build troops in them from active members to be used in this war. Unless of course we were to just leave them there useless and worth nothing but points on a map. I do recall EVO nobling a large number of barbs/inactives on their rear & core at the start of this war during your tough times, what I do not recall is RAIN putting you down for where you chose to noble. I guess we'll clean up our inactives, you'll clean up our inactives, and somewhere inbetween a war will be fought between the actives? The fact is EVO at this time has close to three tribes worth of active players and RAIN does not and didn't even at the start of this war. I'm not sure if by the tone of this discussion you are trying to throw sand in my eye because I posted maps in the past? If you are I don't really care, I like maps better than stats because they not only show where we were, but also where we are, where we are going, and even how long it may take to get there. I fail to see why EVO feels the need to brag, it's kind of like 3 people crowding around a war amputee beating him with bats and then writing a big long speech about how well they know how to swing. RAIN has plenty of territory left and you have hardly scratched the surface. Despite your best PnP efforts we will not be disappearing quickly. We will regroup. You better pray you don't have an activity crisis of your own because that's a lot of villages no where near our fronts that you will eventually have to noble whether you like it or not.
