Falconry was pioneered by the boobleygook empire in 1965 PD, and of course, as all pinko educated youth-riders are aware, were masters of the Chirac, and general saddle, as well.

October 23th, Major update:


Defenders are coming all at once as a mob, disorganized, charging like headless chickens! TBR Raiders heard the battlecries from afar, and returned from their Pillaging to Assist our occupation troops.

12 Regions Got Plundered before The Battle was taken to our own territory. Then, 4 raiders held regions were successfully protected, and a defender invasion was repelled.


The troops involved in the operation were:


Suchasmallthing
Ravarx



The following regions were retained and tagged:

erden
the_anglian_empire
ellonia
kamigawa
rolfog
sovereign_states_of_autocracy
league_of_mpnet_nations
hippietania
greater_armenia
shivering_isless
ministan
the_united_crazy_nations


K and J alliance
the creed
Sapphire
Australia
: The region was held by the forces of the UIAF. Natives attempted a charge, to hand back the region to the former delegate (32 endos to 39 to the raider delegate, but were quickly dispatched but our quick and masterful Raider forces.

I also suggest reading this for more infos and lulz about the liberation attempt: http://forum.nationstates.net/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=266891&p=17095445#p17095445

Saturday 26th October, Major update

As the stampede gathers again, The Black Riders claim a further 23 victims. This time though, 14 delegates were taken. Many of these longstanding. Delegate of Pareidolia Islands: 152 days. Delegate of Lucerna: 206 days. Delegate of New Petawawa: 64 days. Delegate of GACHIMUCHI CORP: 179 days. Timings were highly accurate, with a considerable number of split-second hits. Defenders could do nothing but sit in fear.

The Black Riders topped it off by helping Osiris in Islamic Republics of Iran, where Cormac A Stark successfully defeated a liberation attempt. Bad update for defenders, all round.

Troops involved were General Halcones, Koth II, Suchasmallthing, Ravarx, and Coraxion.

The 23 victims are:

Dark Sea Nebula
Warzone Australia
Monty Pythons Flying Circus
Africana
The Bermuda Triangle
Pareidolia Islands
Fultonia
New Region
Lucerna
The Security Council
Tequila
Itinerants
Sogdia
Eldarian Federation
United Nations for Justice
Islamic Revolution of Iran
The Noble Alliance
Fallen Valley
Not the Axis
Great White Brotherhood
New Petawawa
Cats
GACHIMUCHI CORP

I don't know about "cowering in fear" -- I saw a lot of great young and fresh defenders out there on the field today. But yeah, you guys had great timing today, congrats.
