It involved alliances that were not part of Consone on side that fought against Coalition so soup war is not precise description also.

**** Noted, that RES aided Tigre's city from my attacks due to the fact BSH was in alleigence with you in your declaration on us. I was unaware of your input in regards to movements against other consone alliances, this was probably due to your non declarations against them. This it seems, is a growing trend that I personally would like to see removed from warfare in Illy. your either at war or your not, but then I suppose anything goes in war? |
Well, the other Consone's didn't declare on RES, they just attacked our camps. So, turnabout is fair play, right? I was a little surprised that Consone did not declare war on RES when RES declared on WE. But, yet Consone was still interested in stepping into the RES/WE conflict. Oh well, go figure.
The formal declaration, in game mechanic terms, is just changing colors to red from gold. For RES, only having WE formally at war meant all red units to RES were WE units which was sometimes useful info from watching the world map. It has always been common for wars to be waged without formal declarations in Illy - again, due to no real game mechanic. Also, often when a war is declared, the losing alliance simply fades away leaving the victor with a "war" listed on its alliance page for a long time.
I was surprised that WE decided to work over tigre's warg pit instead of any of the many RES cities in that area. Certainly the RES cities were a much greater threat to WE than that lone BSH city.

yea.. never did understand their thinking there... i myself had a hand in killing many many waves of cav.. they just kept coming even tho the city was filled with troops -.-
but it was one of the only signs as no other attacks was really sent to other towns of ours in the war, it showed clearly that consone couldn't even siege and raze one town so close to theirs and at least a week away from any reinforcements from us, pitiful really.

Call me stupid Rorgash, I am still glad and hope never will any city face destruction under my armies. Even exodus is harsh punishment for big settlements.

What is there to figure TD, if RES ties troops of WE then RES effects outcome of war.there is nothing strange in Consone attacking RES siege camps on WE.On that note if you wanted to fight WE on your own separatly from Coalition you could have done that before they were in war with many other allinaces..but hey like you said fair play and all... go figure.

I think it's foolish to believe that a few people on a forum thread will be able to define the name of the war for future conversation about it. People will call it what they wish to call it, and the ones they are conversing with will know what they are talking about regardless of whether they insist on "the great trove war" or "the soup war" as its name. It has been the largest conflict in Illyriad history, and the memory of the war will outlast any label pasted onto it.
