Our war history last age was something like this:

1 win, 5 holds. All were declared by us at a time of our choosing - we had 3 huge guys and nobody likes declaring on a kingdom with huge provinces.

There were also 2 kingdoms that turtled on us. Turtling kingdoms are good to declare on if you want some land without fear of retal, but bad if you want a war.

This age, we're just big. I'm almost at 500K networth and I am not the largest in the kingdom. But it's sure tough to explore and maintain 80 DPA....

Our current War history is 2 Wins, and 2 Draws, so I'm very satisfied so far
We also play it at our own pace, being the declarers, and we have one big Avian @ 2,200 acres, and that's just ideal.
Before I declared 1:46, I knew they were gonna be weak; I had been CE'ing them for a while, and there wasn't one Aid-package sent in 60 hours

Nobody ever declared hostile, and we declared hostile twice, both times they declared peace on us.
Maybe because we got 3 provs larger than 2k acres..

Things are still cruising along in my kingdom. We have reached 12 million net worth, and I have passed 3000 acres and 500K networth. I have nearly 5 wizards per acre, and am maintaining about 90 DPA.

I knew it was to good to last.

We got declared on a couple of days ago. They also sent a dragon. Ouch. Dragon wars are the norm with top kingdoms.

We have lost land, but are holding our own. We killed their dragon after a day. We also started our dragon, named her Fluffy, and sent her back. She's still having a good old time there, but may not last much longer.

I have lost a few hundred wizards to assassinations, and had my mages sabotaged, but that's it. There's surprisingly few Rogues in the enemy kingdom, so I'm not losing many wizards to assassinations. As you can imagine, having lots of wizards per acre is causing a lot of damage - I am able to cast Meteor Showers without too much trouble, even on some of their thief/mages. I have gained a few hundred honor in two days, and should make Lord fairly soon.

I am in a high-ranking kingdom, although we are no longer in the top 50 due to the war.

Brief history of the war:

They declared with a dragon. They made lots of attacks and had most of the kingdom starving. I escaped starvation thanks to some speed-built farms, fertile lands and NB. We sent a dragon back and killed their dragon. They sent another dragon. We started another dragon, they started a third. They then withdrew from the war. They cancelled their third dragon, but we sent ours. Two dragons each is fair. In the meantime another kingdom declared on them, and they lost most of what they gained from us.

We got beaten up a bit, but came through mostly intact. Some of our attackers suffered greatly and as a result the kingdom lost about 500K networth.

I had wizards assassinated but finished the war with more wizards than I started with. I finished up gaining about 500 honor.

Here's my CB - I have purposely masked some values. Note my wizard and thief ratios - this is *not* recommended if your kingdom wars a lot because your wizards would be food. I maintain lots of watchtowers to protect them.

I will post an uncensored CB at the end of the age.
