This weekend one of our French members was killed on a mountain near our base. Our villager did not know that they could port to their hearthfire or log out while KO'd, so the perps KO'd him repeatedly.
We tracked the scents and quickly realized that the perps were living inside of the same base that we had previously tracked murder scents to.
We decided to let things rest for a day or so to attempt to get back the body.
After Irrek (our French ambassador) reached out to the perps, they asked him to pay for the body with a barrel of very high quality water. We did not like this exchange at all, specially when this village had previously promised us that they would not be killing in the area anymore.
A siege was planned. We intended to fully raid the claim shield down to zero.
We made a palisade bubble nearby with a house and a pclaim, and then we crafted 2 catapults + a ram (just because Epic wanted to use a ram).
After one hour of creating the first catapult Epic took the first shot, which completely bypassed the claim shield and hit directly through to the palisade's HP.
Wetting himself, Epic spammed the chat and told me to turn on my stream.
Apparently, these lads had their pclaim permissions set to white, and therefore we had full rights to vandalize (and raid) their shit
We broke in within 4 catapult shots and then raided the base for good (might make a highlights video of this later, but for now here is the full recording)
We killed a vandal alt inside of this base and looted 10+ LCs, 2 wagons, many animals, some gold/pearls, etc.
...
Some time passed after I turned off the stream. The perps were offline and did not know what had happened to their base.
We noticed an online hearthfire and decided to camp it
TL'DR
Some guys leave multiple murder scents around the grid and then kill one of our villagers. They offer to sell the body back to us for a high price and continue to kill people nearby so we set up a full raid plan against them.
Turns out they had white perms set to be able to vandalize and we got in within 1 hour.
GG RIP KRIMINAL SKUM
I don't take many pictures these days since I record everything, but here is one of the loot chests and w/e else
