War system questions

[Khahliana]

Seanchan declared war against RE and Children. I am confused. They have a war office?

I thought they were still considered to be perpetually at war with regular human clans anyway. Or are they considered just another set of same side light side clans who can't be hunted unless they are warranted by your clan? If so, why can't we see their rosters?

Oh boy

Seanchan clans are still technically another race. I have to mess around just to view my own clan. I believe clans are coding, so this is not changeable at present.

With regards to war we function similarly to HoL/CoL, all clans under one umbrella. There is a war office in Falme. I would not stoop to Tar Valon levels and war without a chance to retaliate.

It would be appreciated if people would not lump us all in the same basket as those who have chosen the offensive support of our allies. Thank you.

I find it amusing that people are bitching about Tar Valon not having a war office - its for your own good, killing smobs/mobs as a Warder is a joke and one pair could probably clear most cities given time, now imagine 4-5 pairs running around, all your cities would be sacked every day. Especially for the Warders who play during downtime/european/aussie time, we'd clear your city every repop. This is just from a gameplay perspective, then there is the point of RP that Tar Valon does not War against anyone but the Shadow - and arguably the Seanchan.

Most amusing is the point that Tower gets the best of both worlds, get to participate in a War with no repercussions. That has basically been the bread and butter of *oL for however many years. You go stab a novice or accepted who is doing mindless tasks like cleaning the dishes, then you go Amador and we aren't allowed to kill you inside - don't know if that has been changed, haven't done much samesiding the past many years.

At least this way we get to kill whitecloaks since they are at War with other nations, no more having to let people go because they cross the border to Andor/Two Rivers and there being no clanmembers around to ask for permission to hunt within their borders or just get a flatout no.

Seanchan have a war office. DS will eventually get a war office. Illian-Tear-Mayene have war offices.

Personally, I make the distinction between "skirmishes" for inofficial wars and "wars" for those who have been declared and fall under the system. There will likely always be skirmishes between Illian-Tear-Mayene, and Seanchan and others. If anyone wants to try to force concessions out of the enemy, though, declaring a war on someone with a war office is the way to go.

As for the Seanchan rosters, changing those is the good old coding problem. They would be visible to LS if we could.

Interesting. Thanks for the clarification.

Hrm, wonder how the DS stuff will work

[Khahliana]

I guess it makes sense for both SS and DS to have also, so that they can advance their armies and outposts by winning declared wars.

If DS gets one that how do you not give the Tower one at that time? All the arguments against giving Tar Valon one before are mute against the DS/Tower war.
