=== Fourth Era of Eminence === | |||
May 2016: In a stunning turn of events the balance of power in PirateCraft was changed forever. | |||
The build up began during the previous months. This was the time when [[CoV]] was at the height of its power and attracting an ever larger member base. Many of the new recruits, decked out in God, felt bold enough to raid and pillage as they pleased. In contrast to the older, more experienced crusaders the fresh blood acted more reckless and less adept on the battlefield. This change did not go unnoticed. Unrest was growing as the previously sedate crews of PirateCraft began to stir from their palsy. A breeze was picking up which would soon become a storm. | |||
The first strike was dealt by the [[Elves]]. CoV raids lead by players such as [[JoeBlub]] and [[Bentas]] were halted in their tracks as the Elves amassed a large enough force to drive them back and even slay them. This was a big surprise to many on the server, as usually CoV members encountered little to no resistance owing to their reputation. [[Reptaria]] announced that he would from then on be actively hunting down crusaders himself. | |||
Behind the scenes treaties were being signed. Now that CoV could be hurt, it was time to drive the blade in deeper. Solis and EE were the first to bring the battle to the crusaders. The sheer number of God geared players, often over a dozen, in comparison to the two to three CoV members at a time proved simply overwhelming. In battle after battle, CoV for the first time met with defeat. | |||
These were not the only crews to get involved though. The British Empire, recognising the potential of this grand alliance against CoV, [http://piratemc.com/groups/british-empire-public-releases/forum/topic/a-hunt-for-the-cov/ joined in the fray] on 19th May 2016 and sought to bring in more of the smaller crews to the frontlines. Within days, the gears of war were turning as no less than seven crews were actively taking up arms and pursuing their previous belligerents. In addition, it became apparent that CoV's reputation was disintegrating at a rapid pace. No longer seen as untouchable, players recalled the frequent raids, the driving of long-term players such as [[Konstruktor]] away from server and the arrogance of the past and used this this opportunity to shatter the crusader's hegemony for once and all. | |||
