One questions to all leaders from a guild: Why you will a City? for the crown or for the matrials or for cannons?
by this some Declarations to first by Matrialcitys you can buy only 300 Matrial of a variety in a week, by Cannons only 100 of a variety or by the specials only 10. pets by 300k city points only one.
here now some declarations to the city leveling system : for 10000 Citypoints coast are 500.000.000 silver or lots of matz, and don´t forget IGG has forbidden macros! you have everything by hand in the city cast purely!! and 500.000.000 is a realy big money!
so i ask you know what is for you importen: a City where you need lots of money and matrials or that your Memebers goes to high lvl player than this is the problem you need many player who is strong on land and Sea a siegewar or Guildwar decides in the coastal waters. if the enemy on land you have half losing your city so its importen that all player work on Land and Sea Battel!!! it is sensles if a weak guild have a city, i don´t would anyone offered by this but to first i think its realy importen that all guilds work on the Members and that all Strong guilds help the other guidls! because when all our citys under attack so we have a big problem, than must all city guilds be in a position that can defend they city allone!!
So now you think over this here and ask you its realy a good thing to own a city or its better if i help by defend and get for this help the items for cityprice?
And one by end here: our alliance attack never the Citys Barcelona and Melacca !!!!
First question is : Why you want a City SERA ? Or better a general question : What are Citys for? So if its not important to get mats and wareqiupment from a city what is the reason for a guild to get a city ? Just for detroying tons of silver and mats for leveling it ?
Nordlichter leveled up Athens to 40 k points to get lvl 12 mats especialy rare CI + EW. Oslo we leveled up till now at 174 k points and will go on to 300 k for warequipment and special items and not for having fun paying lots of silver for mining passports!
If you have a small guild (i mean not weak) and accept just high lvl players, you dont have the assigment to help the new and weak members to level up. Then you can put all your energy in to a city or colony. Having a small guild that just accept high lvl players is a kind of egoism and not very helpfull to keep a server alive and its easy for a leader of such a guild to force other guilds with requirements for having a city (its my opinion not from Guild)!
Nordlichter have 31 active players atm. Many of them are still weak and need tons of mats for rebuild their stuff and are very glad if they can get cannons from a city for low price. So this is answer to the question what are citys for. And when from this 31 members are 20 daily ingame and want to do instances or need other help there is much less time to make citypoints for such a guild than for a small guild!
1 big fact is : NO Guild can defend its city alone (thats also fact for you and capetown).
And a very funny thing is that somebody forces other guildleaders to make 10 k citypoints every month when they get a city from a other allie guild and the same person is upset when a guild that leveled up a city and give it to a allieguild and make a deal with them for buying out items for a delimited time. BUT in other thread (DVL blame us!!!) this upset person say that buying mats from a allied guildcity will be very helpfull (Osmanli: has a Matz City who can buy Rare ci and eaglewood, when we and the other guild it buy for city price is this a big help!) This person apparently forget that there are almost tons of mats flow in this city. And by the way NOBODY have to take care about what two guild deal with - first of all this person is NOT involved in the deal and try to make deals without knowledge of the concerned guild.
At least there is one fact: in solutions like "our alliance attack never the citys barcelona and melakka" and many other solultions from "our alliance" would never be decided from the whole alliance, that would be decided in the past always from 1 or 2 persons!!! Alliance means network of all affiliated guilds and not solutions from 1 ppl. that didnt work in the past and will never work so. WE was never asked about attacking barcelona or melakka !!!! so WHICH alliance made this solution??? But there will be some hope since Lupus take care of the alliance bcs he ask all affiliatet guilds before he does a step.
