New AB term...

Nobu (verb)- To intermittently attack a peripheral resource node controlled by the enemy in order to require garrison of defensive players at that node. "You often see rogues Nobing in Arathi Basin," "Hey Calhoun, Nobu the Stable," or "Damn Tat, come back and help me defend the LM... There's a goddamn Druid sneaking around Nobing it." The word is a contraction of the name of a world war II Japanese pilot, Nobuo Fujita, who ran bombing raids on Oregon in order to require the US armed forces to produce heavier defenses of the Pacific sea board, thus distracting those forces from offensive operations further west.
