Prices never went up in the wars I've been around for. Also, one would assume Sin and Shark know enough to not use boar spears in PvP.
They call me MISTER Urp!

Oh. this is interesting!

1v1 (Alliance vs Alliance) war is a good thing to watch. Rock on people!

/me grabs beer and watch the Illy world burn.

Indeed. 

If an alliance prepares for war, they usually stock up before that. Or have T2 resources stocked up in high number on principle. In tournaments it's a different case, but we all know the devs have become allergic to those...

Good luck to all, and I'm hoping the other big alliances can stop the urge to go stomping :)

But since this is Illy, somehow I doubt that will happen...

Question:

Did SIN 1st stipulate what they want from SHARK in order to prevent an attack? Or was it an ' attack 1st, converse later' type of approach? 

Maybe SIN didn't stipulate terms 1st as they didn't want to allow SHARK a chance to stall and prepare for war (Not saying they didn't, just speculating).

Any ideas?

at OrcDork, I think they will attack when they wanted too. :D

/me heard a lady warrior said - "She smells war! and it smells like a teen spirit."

Prices fell in both big wars. As armies increase in size, the value of gold increases. Thus the price of items appears to fall, because the items are priced in gold.

I'd agree that prices in general would fall as players liquidated holdings to generate cash to pay their armies.

Hi Mr OrcDork,
That is the 64k gold question.
All the blurb on the 1st page is just excuses.
I think they just want to fight and knock SHARK off the top slot for kudos (or vanity).

Come on. How could they possibly knock Shark off the top slot? The leaderboard shows you have 812 cities. It doesn't seem likely that the #12 alliance could dislodge you from #1. If SIN accomplished that, it would be an incredible feat of military prowess.

I think Sin are just being honest and as one of the first to establish a land claim and feel it is a legitimate extension of Illy game play, now wish to show their objection to Shark who disagree with claims.

They may also worry about Sharks statement that they have developed Newlands just because it is strategic area and foresee a further development later in the game into BL to widen their objective.
