    Default War Comes to Ikariam!

    WAR COMES TO IKARIAM

    A tale of war by Lucky Shot.

    ChuChu rulers wake in the early morning to find their cities in ruins, their fleets sunk and their warehouses emptied. What can only be described as absolute devastation greets the puzzled rulers.

    “We did everything right, we sent a couple navy ships early to put the UEL on the defensive then recalled them, our members sent insulting messages, and we gave them information that we discovered with our spies. I am surprised it came to this,” exclaimed one ChuChu Ruler.

    Reports are still funneling in as it’s now clear that the UEL – Revolution has attacked the far larger ChuChu alliance. It appears that in the late night, that great armadas from the UEL set sail towards various key ChuChu ports. UEL families gathered at their ports to wish for a quick victory and their safe return. Throughout the night, battles raged across the archipelago and one after another, it appears that there were many key victories won by the UEL.



    It seems that they used their technologically advanced navies to defeat the enemy navies followed by locking down their harbors with blockades. While blockades are expensive, they are essential in the plan to land ground troops. What followed was perhaps one of the greatest logistical accomplishments ever seen, the landing and attacks with thousands of troops to lay siege and plunder various ChuChu cities.



    The various successes have not come without cost. Two distinct groups have their hands up in arms, the accountants who have to add up the loot, and the opposing generals who have lost their goods. ChuChu member Atlantis69 was overheard muttering, “They took everything. Gold, Wine, Lumber, Marble, Sulfur. They left our women, but killed our livestock. They killed my Sheep! MY SHEEP! Now what am I going to do for prom? TSUBABABABWAH!!!”

    This has left the members of the ChuChu Rockets Alliance to scramble to their oracle to receive this key advice to decipher!

    Stay tuned to more as the battle rages across the Archipelagio!

    The war wouldn't have happened had we not received so many snarky, insulting, disprespectful pm's from one of the Chu members. We tried to get him to drop from the alliance so we could have it out and not endanger our Non-Aggression Pact(NAP) with them. It didn't look like it was happening. We prepped for a potential war with them even though they were the stronger group.

    The public posting by their antagonist saying that I couldn't READ their public posts really put things into perspective especially when you read his posts that carry over into our NAP agreement. It was discussed and the next morning we went to war. Raje went West, I went east and we started sysematically attacking their bigger guys in order to allow our militaries to operate. Surprisingly, we met with 100% success which allowed us to quickly pursue some of the smaller fish. My guess is that the speed, surprise and ferocity played a fairly large factor in CHU disbanding later that day.

    My favorite moment of the short war was as my ships were sailing in for the blockade on AsianSuperfly's city of Atlanta, a major city and military production site. I had 50 boats steaming in for the blockade and it was being followed up by 188 ground troops followed by another 300. Before they landed, I received this pm from ASF.

    Your army is impressive.
    LOL! Here was the ending battle report from that attack.

    Very entertaining write-up, thanks for the effort. Great job to UEL!

    So how long did the war actually last? 12 hours? 24 hours? I take it since they have disbanded that the war is over?
