Pest Alliance - 8 warehouse minimum
One alliance which may survive as a social alliance is one that has single city players who nick valleys for fun.
The social more that battering a weaker player into rubble or starving them of resources is good but annoying other by stealing valleys is wrong I find odd, both are theft of sorts :pirate: one honourable :mad: one dishonourable.
Logging off for a day or so will not do them any harm and the attempt to destroy a single city with gates closed, a few troops and warehoused resources will provide much time consuming effort with little effect.
Often much is made of the frustration expressed as a player has their city wrecked and maybe the constant loss of valleys will be the stimulus needed for some of the quieter servers.
