Castle Pills under Siege


Dark Dan I's large town of Castle Pills is currently under siege by Ranalos of YARR!. At the time of writing, there are two blockades on the city, to the North West and the South East and a single siege to the West of the city. Both blockades are on plains squares whilst the siege is on a small hill. Reportedly, there were 2 more sieges earlier which were broken by TUF.
Dark Dan I was in YARR!/Dead until the 14th June when he switched sides to TUF. Whilst in YARR! he placed Castle Pills in the Pirate Isles which caused it to become a target upon his defection due to the high concentration of YARR! towns in the area. Ranalos seems confident of victory, saying:' DD went to Tuf and failed to exo out of the Isles, which is our alliance core, and so he will lose that town.'
However, TUF do not seem to want to give up the town without a fight. Josh released the following statement:'The battle in The Pirate Isles rages on but we have reduced the first 2 sieges to zero and they put reinforced with more troops on the small hill and put a new siege there, so a 3rd siege is busy getting pummeled. From what I know is going to happen with more incoming troops, it looks like Yarr! will not raze the town.'
If TUF manage to break the siege and blockades, it is likely that the town will be exodused  into a more defensible location.

UPDATE: Castle Pills was razed by Ranalos on 24 Jun 2016 at 06:47.
