Sneaking Luster into our core is a legit move. We have all seen it numerous times and there is nothing illegal or cheap about it...however.... its done way too often. Its like the only trick Lee and Luster seem to know anymore these days. The strategy itself isnt pathetic. Lee and Luster are pathetic for being 'one trick ponys' all the time.
I will say this: at least 90/91 tried to do something proactively. They didnt wait around for us to cancel. I have to give them credit for having the guts to do what they did. I thought the market aid thing yall did was smart, not cheap. Thats what alliances are for.
Overall the 99/97 alliance is more active, organized and cooperative than the 90/91 alliance. In my opinion that was the difference maker. Our alliance also has 2 very active Partaxians both of which have had an impact on the war. Just goes to show that every family needs an active Partaxian. CPFF is a great tactical spell that is not utilized often enough.
The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he, who in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who would attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee!!
