== History == | |||
For over a year LoN remained the biggest and most powerful alliance on the server, rivalled only by the [[Federation Nations Alliance]]. The [[Verussian Empire]] was ousted at the end of spring 2015 after a plot was uncovered aiming to undermine their allies. LoN provided coordinated and active resistance against the [[0utlaws]] until [[HardTimez]] was banned. In autumn 2015 [[CoV]] became the most active PvP crew on the server, yet to begin with LoN did not have to deal with many acts of aggression. Smaller wars, such as the war on the [[Verussian continent]] or skirmishes against various smaller crews took priority. In spring 2016, CoV began to swell further in size. PvPers of at least decent capability flocked to their ranks in order to make the most of the limited competition on the server. Raids were conducted against various LoN members. For a long time no action was taken against this aggression - the capabilities of CoV seemed overwhelming. In May 2016, the [[Elven]] leader, [[Reptaria]], declared that he would be actively hunting CoV members in retaliation. Combined action was taken by [[Elven Empire]], the [[British Empire]] and a new PvP crew called [[Solis]] with the rest of LoN soon to follow. The sheer number of players suddenly taking up arms against CoV proved no easy challenge, igniting discord with their ranks. A rift developed between old and new crew members. Within a week, the seemingly impenetrable crew had broken up. | For over a year LoN remained the biggest and most powerful alliance on the server, rivalled only by the [[Federation Nations Alliance]].
