Hey community.

Through your tears as you realize Jason wants a griefey flavor to his game, also realize my warring ways are accepted by him. I don't care much about the people in this community who complain about griefers. Jason wants it to happen, and I fully embrace that. If anything now, I'd say griefing is highly deterred. You can destroy entire cities now and risk no repercussions. You just need to be from a different line.

Hell, you can't even speak to other lines anymore! People have posted casually about being born to cities where everyone spoke some odd language... Yes, you can no longer speak to people outside your family. You cannot easily coordinate with people unless you are in the same line.

So I show up to a city that's slightly more advanced than my own. However, it has fewer people. Remember new spawning rules? In rather predictable increments, you can find eve spawn locations with prospective settlements. You can find camps or cities in these areas, but often surrounding settlements will be a similar tech level. I stand around for a bit smiling, eating berries and helping them plant. Mind you, I had a crown as I had succumbed to vanity when I saw a gold deposit.

I had a daughter there, was asked many questions I could not answer due to gibber-language update. I said little except to my daughter whom I ultimately left there to return to the village I ruled (I was really just a public facing figure since I was hardly ever home).

My village had no roller, so we had no swords. However, we had one bow and a few arrows. The town I was scoping out had at least one knife. A bow. No roller either so no swords.

When I returned, I coordinated a raid with three individuals and two carts. The plan was to take as much value as we could with what we had. Prioritize pies and steel, tools are good too. I explain that we won't understand them and vice versa due to the update to the raid party.

We roll up. We are the blackest skin and the town is made up of individuals of the whitest skin. It's obvious that we are not from there, so we don't try to hide it. I still have on my crown. We literally just start loading up on tools, and eating food. We got two baskets of pies if I recall correctly. We mostly picked up tools.

Then, midway through, one of their men returns with a cart of iron and a few steel.

We pick it up as he tries to unload it, and run home with 7 or so tools, including a file and smithing hammer, a basket of arrows, two baskets of pies, and a cart or so of tools. On top of that, a cart of iron from a mine, I presume due to the volume. We netted all that loot plus an extra cart!

The whole time, the authority figures were asking all sorts of questions and negative emoting. They tried to agress on us as we left, but we bolted as they tried so nothing came of it and we ultimately weren't followed.

We returned home which was about a 1 - 1.5 minute run northwest that was probably just about long enough to be too difficult to stumble upon by chance. I originally found it when I was running far to scout for milkweed and started following signs of activity (soil pits, clay pits, berries, sharp stones, etc.).

Once home, I found my daughter who I'd left in the town I had scouted. She had a home marker on us. We briefly spoke. She was happy she was a place where she could be understood and held no animosity whatsoever towards me for abandoning her there or for stealing from her adopted parents (they cared for her). She was offput by the white people's odd language. In fact, when the village I was born in decided it would be safest to return with our weapons and wipe out the enemy town's occupants, my daughter joined the 4 man ranks as our designated feeder. Then it was me shotcalling, a bowman, and a looter.

We knew they had only two weapons: a bow and a knife. The plan was to loot the bow before they can draw it (it was sitting at the edge of town) as we shoot their knife-holder. We spam the body for the knife while waiting for the bow cooldown, and then wipe out their fertile population. We knew they had two fertile women at least.

We make the 1-1.5 minute run from our village to their town.

It could have gotten messy if they had prepared for us. They planned not. Our plan works very well, and when we are done, there are no more of the Pu family. I dug for their line, and this is the line we ended.

This was me.

Thanks jason, that game was so satisfying for me and my whole village. We returned, feasted upon our plunder, and told stories of the great battle of Pu where our tactics and cunning led us to a swift victory.

We had literally no incentive to cooperate. The best case scenario for us, if we favor any interaction at all (you always should battle, it's a very unique experience in the game) it would have needed to be a battle. Sure, say we could have become cooperative through some unspoken alliance, but I don't believe you. They were in the way of my family surviving better, and it was easier to wipe them out and take their stuff than it was to try and translate the terms of an agreement to them.
