Perhaps we could wage war with them to persuade them to form an empire?
They have an average of 80k points per member, it would be a nice challenge and might help those of us who are not familiar with the ACS attack to become so.

Might be alright except that the link to their forum is broken.

This one?

Works for me...

good idea.

It is an 'either you are with me or against me (and prepare your own grave)' situation. That is a petty alliance

you should also consider that an interesting war needs to have more warriors

by that i mean that with only 6 members against us it will be either a short war (since it will be 5 vs 1) or every foe will be at the same spot

in this case they are all in g1 or g6 so all of us who are to far can't do anything

we should go at war with the most numerous alliance to make things interesting

Still a real war would be much more satisfying then the last one wich past to quickly

It won't be considered war. We are merely going to absorb this alliance and merge as one. All we have to do is to convince them to harbor under our shadow. If they do not comply, then that's is another matter and all that's gonna happen is that we'll get a few new farms.
