If this is to be implemented , the counter espionage project should be changed from 50% to 30-35%.

Rose at it again

Oh? Is the forum so back?? Good luck if you do go to war with Rose though.

There has been some discussions floating around changing the way how we do espionage operations and buffing up some areas of espionage while nerfing some parts of espionage, i am not going to go into much details of what has been discussed in the debate channel in RON but i will post a few screen shots as i believe everyone should be involved in this discussion and everyone should have a say in this. In Response to Keegoz comment, i did come up with a proposal in revamping the spy/espionage mechanics which you said yourself that it will be considered, this was back in late January but since then, there has been no mention in fixing the espionage mechanics at all, there has been discussions and proposals in military research and adding new things in Econ, but nothing has been mentioned about espionage, so since there are currently some form of discussions going on around Spying/Espionage proposals and ideas on how to improve it and make it more fairer and balance, i think the forums are more appropriate for these discussions so everyone can pitch in some ideas and proposals on what they like to see changed or added in. Also both me and Rage have been saying those in beige should be protected from any form of espionage attacks, whilst also those in beige shouldn't be able to do any espionage attacks except for intel gathering, otherwise performing espionage attacks means forfeiting the beige protection bloc. If nobody wishes to change the espionage mechanics, that's fine, leave it as it is but it least allows being in beige means being also protected from espionage attacks, allowing those in beige time to be able to rebuild spies, but in saying this, make it those in beige shouldn't also be allowed to conduct espionage attacks, if they do, they forfeit beige. Anyways enough said, i'll leave it for others to comment. @Rageproject@Keegoz Sorry for the pings.

spy kills go brrrrrrr

Agreed, this is what P&W should be anyway. Tired of the drunken bar fights in the dark with no real reason.

u guys want to burn rose but didnt invite me...

This is great. I hope other AAs follow suit and make FA communications more transparent and visible to the general public.

@ToxicPepperHomie, remember Rose had us in the brink of war if I wasn't dropped from Aurora sphere entirely while I was in Compass one of the times. They even tried going for Kan & you while in LoD. They've done it again and again the background, watch yourselves n be on stand by ole homie

I told you, Rose bad. join the war when? 😌

Ooooooo rose, what did you do!!

Effective Immediately, Spectre is implementing a shift in its foreign affairs policy. This new direction will emphasize a more forward-facing, transparent, and a public approach to a broad range of foreign affairs issues. Key Pillars of the New Policy: Forward-Facing Engagement Spectre will actively seek and initiate official dialogue. Strategic priorities and intentions will be clearly communicated in advance, allowing for constructive diplomatic discussions and collaboration. Transparency Foreign policy objectives, agreements, and actions will be disclosed, with regular briefings and public updates. Spectre will more actively utilize public forums to address a wide range of foreign affairs topics, including: Public declarations of positions on foreign affairs issues Statements regarding escalated matters with other alliances, regardless of their size Official decrees and updates related to diplomatic developments Public Diplomacy Public platforms such as RON and other news servers or community-based servers will be used proactively as official channels for foreign affairs communications. Public statements on the forums regarding ongoing diplomatic engagements and their outcomes will become more commonplace. The following is an example of what's to come in this foreign affairs policy shift: Earlier today, Spectre confirmed the detection of spy operations activity targeting our protectorate, Shadow Valley. The operation in question was traced directly to the nation of Lost Symbol, a recognized official of Rose. This act constitutes a direct violation of Shadow Valley’s sovereignty and, by extension, an affront to Spectre’s protective obligations. As of this release, Spectre has initiated a proportional counter operation targeting Lost Symbol. Active spy operations (assassinating spies) against Lost Symbol are being carried out. This response is measured, for every Shadow Valley spy compromised, an equivalent number will be taken out. To the Rose Alliance: Spectre remains open to dialogue. However, let it be understood that attacks, direct or by proxy, against any nation under Spectre’s protection will be met with an immediate and proportional response. Should Rose wish to avoid further escalation, we invite its Foreign Affairs Department to engage in direct talks. Until then, Spectre stands by its protectorate and acts without hesitation. TL;DR: Spectre will be taking a more public approach to foreign affairs matters including using the forums. We will try our best to find a happy medium where we aren't too excessively using the forums.

This DoE is waaaay to early... The end was good though

I used different military logos for different military forces in my nation since I have VIP. for example this is the image of my soldiers.

Recession indicator 💔

Will definitely be attending

Sometimes, you gotta clean off the cobwebs... Sometimes, you gotta make sure the cables are plugged in... Sometimes, you gotta do a sound check... Sometimes, you gotta check on the soup... Sometimes, you gotta leave the mountain bunker, and go for a ride... ...Even if it's your last. ______________ When: Tomorrow, July 2nd, at 10 PM EST Where: The Media - https://discord.gg/pqADXxS3 Who: Kev & Thalmor, but hopefully you too ❤️

This is a great example of how community stories can add depth to the Politics and War experience.

So, since it's out there, worth clarifying I was the third mediator, acting on my own behalf and not of my Alliance. A fair portion here frankly warrants an ummm... no? Not what happened? That being said, I can point out the inconsistencies if that's acceptable to the parties... Worth pointing out it's not super conducive to peace negotiations to rehash what occured, and rather try to move forward with the clarifications that were made in RON. I'll forward my own here also, in the interest of transparency. First, let me try to explain my method, which admittedly comes from a more, contract creation oriented process, as that's a portion of my background. Generally, it goes: 1. Principles (must have) -> 2. Initial or preliminary terms -> 3. counterproposal/negotiation -> 4. Final contract -> 5. Review/Signature. Probably was a mistake to forward the principles portion... kind of assumes the parties wouldn't immediately perceive things as bad faith, or what have you, breaking things down. I think Party B (R*se/TFP) were generally well-behaved, despite some hiccups, on that note. We got to like, step 3 barely. I was hoping to clarify working with Epi directly as to what TFP/R*se would and wouldn't go for, in a counterproposal or consolidated terms, so that we could go from there. But alas, it didn't materialize. I made it clear despite the headaches, I am happy to continue mediating the process, likely in a direct format, since that appears to be a possibility now. Moving away from my position as a private individual, for which discretion was already kind of blown (smh Velyni), I can probably offer Camelot a temporary Protectorate, tied to the duration of the NAP. I reckon that may get you closer to peace. Feel free to let me know. @Velyni Vas@EpimetheusTalks@Shwin
