Alright I have been playing this game for like a decade and I am just plain tired of people flaming village and fortress. First off if any fortress member got caught asking evils to help them defend, directly or indirectly, they won't be in the fortress long, if any villager asks mages directly or indirectly to defenf village they get booted too.

What you are seeing happening is people who have the same enemy... GASP fighting that enemy. If they know where you are they are gonna come after you, and when you know raiding is taking place it means you also know where you are. If you stick around or play fortress or village you know they are not very buddy buddy. HEll its not uncommon for fortress gangs to sit outside the village waiting for evil villagers and for village rangers to set snares outside the fortress. If a cleric or a mage starts casting on a rager you can be sure they did not ask for it and at the least will warn the cleric not to do it again. Obviously they are not gonna turn on the healer right away cause they are still fighting you, after you have died or been run off though is when the fortress and village will turn on each other.
