Sadly for the new guys the changes have made them targets. I have posted about this else where so i will only sum up your problems .
1 I need more resources then I can produce.
2 I need more resourcesthen I can raid from barbs.
3 I am at war with other large players and burn resources fast fighting them.
4 I lose NOthing and gain what ever you have laying around if I spend the total of 4 seconds it takes me to send a samll raiding party your way.
I want to be nice I Really do but I have little choice then to feed on the little fish within 30 minutes or so of me. It is the only way I can afford to fight the other sharks in the pool. Consider that one of my allaince mates just baught half a billion in food to get him by for the next 3 days you can do the math. 24 hour barb regens equals take anyhting and everyhitng that is not nailed down near you.
