There's a little more difference between what Fort is and what its goals are and what Empire is and what its goals are than that.

That's not necessarily the point either.

You're aware that there's some gray area between "I might sometimes or situationally attack Fort elf warrior" and "I'm going to perma-camp outside the Fort and make it my life's mission to run the whole cabal out of CON", right?
