One week is definitely not enough.
There's a lot to do, a lot to prepare: such as making a slot to build npc's, and someone must hold your city, and you need to build up resources, and build up troops to make use of the no-upkeep i hope there will be, and make defence very strong for the general mayhem coming, and reinforce alliance, give people roles, missions, oil the machine. age II will mean chaos; the more time we get the better chance we have of coming out of it intact.

I dont know about you, but if you give me a couple days to get myself and my alliance(s) fully battle-ready for a NEW and STRANGE environment, i'm gonna be hard-pressed to do it. Especially during weekdays.

(oh and, for the record, i will be quitting too - but I cannot quit before making sure the alliance is safe.)
