Following his attacks across the server, Rancuneus once again focused his attention on New Danzilona. In one particularly harsh attack, half of the city was covered in lava while nearly a double chest of reinforced blocks were placed along roads and entryways.<ref>https://i.imgur.com/MJgJiuS.png</ref> Rancuneus offered to stop the attacks if prominent members of the city left in exile.<ref><nowiki>https://i.imgur.com/EQZ2hpG.jpg</nowiki></ref> This was promptly rejected. His last major attack took place on Christmas day, where he once again covered much of the city in lava.<ref>https://imgur.com/a/52HnZ</ref> However, he would make a mistake of breaking into a hidden vault. The placement of this vault led the mods of the server to conclude that he had been using x-ray (and some other illegal mods), and he was banned.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/Civcraft/comments/1u8y0t/gg_civcraft/</ref> While a trying time for the city, it solidified the attitude within that New Danzilona was filled with resilient players.

Shortly before the attacks of Rancuneus, proposals to unite and formalise this network of alliances were made.<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Danzilona/comments/1ph3gh/we_should_really_formalise_the_alliance_system_we/</ref> NDZ was soon after approached by the King of Pella on November 4, 2013.<ref>https://old.reddit.com/r/Danzilona/comments/1pua2z/the_macedonian_empire/</ref> The King, Perdikkas, sought to found and expand his Macedonian Empire and offered NDZ a position in it in exchange for access to Pellan infrastructure. Though the deal was rejected by the Danzilonans, it did lead to them establishing formal quadrant-wide diplomatic channels on November 21st.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/PlusPlusDiplomacy/</ref>The increased cooperation in security matters among the +,+ towns during the Rancuneus attacks led to the founding of the [[Civcraft2Import:Groups/alliances/u3p|United Provinces of the Plus Plus]] on December
