The Pirate Republic [YARR!] appears to be on a roll in its ongoing war with BL military alliance TUF, racking up its third successful siege in less than two weeks. A YARR player provided the Times with proof of the successful operation, which ended in a capture:

The Death/TUF-Tuna war is moving so quickly that some cities are already experiencing their second round of sieges. After Gwen’s city of “going to stand my ground” was re-sieged by Death earlier, the Pawanallpa alliance once again has targeted one of Agalloch’s cities.

This siege appears to be a rematch of the first siege on the city, which was reportedly broken by Agalloch on January 23rd.
Little is known about the composition of these sieges. While they are said to real sieges with multiple catapults and reinforcements, they are also likely small camps given their brief lifecycles. Since these ops are being planned on the fly, it remains to be seen how effective any of them will be in taking down cities.
We’ve also received late word that the second siege on “going to stand my ground” has been broken again. Reports indicate that TUF’s Smash lived up to his namesake and smashed Curmudgeon’s siege on Gwen.
