Morning this day in Illyriad opened to the completion of two high profile sieges, marking the first blood drawn in the B!B/HIGH conflict as well as the sixth successful razing of a Stomps city in the Broken lands.

In the late hours, server time, B!B reportedly took down ajqtrz2’s city of Elgoria 2 BH-B2. As of last night, there had been fierce fighting in the dense Almenly forests at the site of the siege, with AJ and his compatriots mounting the best defense they could muster. The Times reported yesterday that the B!B blockade was successfully broken, which allowed HIGH to run much-needed basic resources into the city for prestige building. However, the dual B!B sieges, which landed at precisely the same time and were firing on the hour, must have proved insurmountable even to pres building as the catapults became increasingly accurate over time.

Over in Northmarch, however, it was the tale of two cities, as TVM’s successful raze of Valdorum proved to be a variable cakewalk compared to AJ’s tenacious defense.

Valdorum re-named his exo’ed city State of Grace to “Trivium can Suck It” after the TVM siege set up in Northmarch yesterday. Valdorum made a great call in placing the city surrounded by plains, forcing TVM to set up blockades and sieges on vulnerable plains squares, which could have been ravaged by fast, devastating cavalry attacks. However, the cav attacks never appeared to have come, as the siege and blockade camps appeared largely intact this morning, server time.

The Times witnessed the storming of the city in real-time, which fell a little after 9:00 am server time.

For TVM, this is their first successful siege of the Stomps/Claimers war; their first siege attempt against Ron Fay’s La Vila Strangiato was thwarted after Fay exodused the city back briefly to Elgea, and from there has re-exo’ed it to Pawanallpa.

For the claimers, this is the sixth razed Stomp city in the Broken Lands. For Stomp, they have successfully sieged two cities in Elgea — the razing of He-Man’s Mankini Mansion and Bimoda’s capturing of House Stark leader PhoenixFire’s city.
