Chanadian Propaganda (courtesy of /u/llShadyGuyll)

Two sides are in an apparent ‘land conflict’. Mir stands their ground on territory they have settled on, and Chanada defends their previous land claim. But in reality, they went to war because both sides wanted to. There were attempts at negotiations but both sides had vocal individuals who only wanted war. Those individuals have prevailed, and the south has descended into chaos.

Now a city has been ransacked, its infrastructure disabled and griefed. Players who solely wanted to build in peace (defending themselves if necessary) have been slapped in the face.

Eden is not getting involved, mainly because we don’t have to.

Warmongers have opened a door that goes both ways. You griefed a city. Expect your own city to get attacked. You want war, you just got it, not on a far-away battlefield, but in your own towns as well. Innocent citizens of all involved nations will suffer, citizens that merely wanted to build in peace.

Anyone else who joins into the conflict can most likely see something like this happen to their cities or citizens as well. Most of the wars (or conflicts) in the last couple months have been relatively well-mannered. This is not always the case and no one can protect if you go skipping through a battlefield.

The best way to keep Civcraft peaceful is to not stick your dick into conflicts like this.

As the mask of deception falls off the face of humanity

Unveiling the grim reality of duality

In which everyone is a casualty, no one will be exempt

Truth has many shades

It’s not a matter of black and white, but gray

Although many, we are one, so in the final analysis

Could it be that we are fighting a war that can’t be won? -Morgan Freeman in B. o. B. song, Bombs Away

-Itaqi, Grandmaster of Eden
