As I promised this is the conclusion to the epic saga that was my time on Emporion. Check out part 1 and part 2 if you need a refresher.
We left off with me out of an alliance and under attack. Now I figure my city is toast but lo and behold support waves start coming in. From who you ask? The Syndicate. Now why would they want to defend my city I think to myself. Do they pity the situation I am in and want to help me? Doubtful. Do they dislike The Barbarians enough to rob them of a conquest? Probably but I don't think that alone is reason enough. Are they looking to sink a CS and get some BP? This is probably it.
So here we are, city in revolt, attacks and support coming in, did I survive? Yes I did. The Syndicate sank Uncle Bulgaria's CS among other attacks. However the story doesn't end there because that is a tad lackluster for a story of this caliber. It is now the following morning, I am messaged by The Syndicate about my intentions to continuing playing. They did not offer me an alliance invite if that is what you are wondering. I imagine they were curious about how this tale ends, much like you all. So I said I planned to quit, all this drama has drained my enthusiasm for this world. I then proceed to offer my city to TS should they want it, they accept. A revolt attack is sent, however Uncle Bulgaria has also sent a new revolt attack. The race is on!
TS's revolt goes live 30 minutes before Uncle Bulgaria's does. Does TS launch their CS late or does UB's make it first...........(pause for added drama)......TS's CS arrives first and they city is taken. Thus ending the oddest tale of a mod being rimmed in recent memory.
I hope everyone found this as entertaining as I did and I hope it made for a fun read. Maybe I'll join the next revolt world for round 2.
