  1. We are One, we are perfect, we are the Valkorion Collective. Delete your military and surrender your cities. We will add your memetic and technological distinctiveness to our own. Your alliance will adapt to service us. Resistance is futile. Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Valkorion The All? I thought not. It's not a story the $yndicate would tell you. It's a Rose legend. Darth Valkorion was a Emperor of Rose, so powerful and so wise he could use Keno to influence the code to create pixels… He had such a knowledge of Keno that he could even keep the ones he cared about from losing pixels. The dark side of Keno is a pathway to many cities some consider to be unnatural. He became so powerful… The only thing he was afraid of was hegemonies. Fortunately, he taught his clone everything he knew, then his clone duplicated with him in his sleep. Sexy. He could save others from duplication, but not himself. Valkorion Collective rises.

  2. Hello, My suggestion consists of adding a dynamic value (Total:) that changes based on the value in (Status) * PPU Currently the (Total:) under (PPU) is a static number multiplying the full available resource amount and the PPU. As I enter 60 into the status textbox the total remains static so I don't know the total amount I will spend. Granted I could just simply use a calculator but I believe this would be a solid quality of life addition. 1) 2) I apologize if this has already been suggested I only went back to 02/01/2020

  4. Honestly, the last time I played this game IQ/NPO was still here. Now that I'm back things don't seem that different. In fact, it feels calmer, less toxic, and more enjoyable. I'm sure there are still cheaters playing this game, but it's always a good idea to just get rid of them.

  6. They also don't give a shit if you survive or not. Infact from their point of view, your prots are a good thing as it increases the chance you'll get decked by a much larger alliance for your idiocy, be unable to survive it, and merge as TCW actually wants of you.

  7. I'm so glad I decided to return to the game after all the stuff with IQ happened. Also glad that Yosodog restarted BK cause I would have hated whatever crap that was which thought cheating and trying to just outright dominate without balance was ok.

  8. Mr. Kromwell, what you have just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having read it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

  9. Yes, ships are an important factor of rushing beige... some things about that though: A. rushing beige is an awful idea in terms of preparing for the second round. You're not gaining any new beige time for yourself, and if you're the defender then you're simply opening up that defense slot to an immediate fresh attacker. I shouldn't need to describe how detrimental that is to your other fronts. B. Pure ground forces can force a beige 24 turns after declaration* and are a critical component of the standard fastest raiding manuver of 3 ground 5 navy which can force a beige in 23 turns after declaration*. This is compared to pure navy which requires 26 turns after declaration* to threaten a beige. I'm not even sure where you got your 15 turns number, there's no way to achieve that even under perfect circumstances, not even close; that amount of time buys you 7 ground battles or 5 naval battles, both of which shave off 70 at maximum. C. Ships cost cash, steel, and are efficiently destroyed by aircraft, which they cannot defend themselves against. This is the main reason that aircraft are considered dominant; they hard counter everything except soldiers and other aircraft by virtue of crippling tanks and sinking ships at relatively low cost and no risk. D. To counter ships, one needs only build a few ships. Sure it forces the non-ship guy to spend resources, but it's either that or eat a beige which invariably costs much more than the actual ships, especially considering that evacuation of resources is obviously unlikely without ships. (Or counters.) The aircraft can as usual punish any breakout attempts, the ships are just there to give the aircraft time to work and to avoid the instant, and embarassing, loss that you're aiming to force by using heavy navy. Alternate counter: Pure ground. Pure ground attacks force a beige slightly faster than pure naval attacks do. *'after declaration' numbers based on number of turns after the server initially processes the war declaration. Basically, if you declare just before a turnchange, I'm counting that as the full turn that it is. Numbers calculated from default 6 starting action points; add one turn if Fortress policy is in play. Subtract one turn (and the defenders' dignity) if Blitzkrieg is in play. Obviously, these numbers assume immense triumphs in each action.

  10. I know 95% of players don't care about recruitment, but this annoyed me to the extent that I felt the need to post here. The Lost Empire is currently sending each new player in this game THREE (3) simultaneous recruitment messages. This is extremely annoying for a number of reasons. Getting a ton of messages right when you start a game like this is annoying, but it is a fact of life. A lot of alliances want to recruit, and we have to make new players aware of our existence. But surely we can have some sort of unspoken agreement that we will only send one message at a time, both as a courtesy to other alliances AND the new players whose inboxes we are filling. Even if you are doing it because it is working, which might be the case since you have a lot of members, I still think you should stop. Because if it is working, then heck, why doesn't everyone send out 3 messages? And you can see how this starts to spiral. Even just stagger it FFS. I wouldn't be posting this if you just sent a second message after an hour or two. TL;DR: Sending out 3 simultaneous messages is annoying and inconsiderate both to other alliances and new players. Howabout no? Thanks for listening. Join BK. I will not be taking questions at this time. Check out my book "Recruitment Atrocities" on shelves this fall.

  11. Nature of Offense: Abuse of in game messaging. Spamming the same message in the span of one hour Akuryo sent three messages to me all recruiting for the same alliance. Everybody else only sends maybe one message per day. Akuryo sent me three....

  15. On the home screen in game the background images you use are very nice and make it really stand out could you do this on all pages? i believe this will enhance immersion if say it was military relevant on the military screen etc? Let me know what you think? imagine having the plain background replaced? I think it would be very nice. it’s a small change (I think) that might go a long way

  20. You don't how many messages I've gotten from several different alliances. Very frustrating to continue to mark things as read since the message notification takes up a slot on the task bar. I want to view my nation not see alot of messages. Yours was the straw that broke the camals back. I don't need you cyber bullying me on what you think I should respond to and/or tell me what is or isn't harassment.

  22. I do not understand why you said this. I didn't know you thought the stuff I say is stupid. That seems a little out of character. I reported you because you were the only one that sent three of the same messages in the span of an hour. That's spam in my book. What would you call it?

  23. If TCW was to contact me and say, "Hey, you shouldn't have that many protectorates" then we will follow what they say without question. They haven't. So who are you to say what our alliance can and cannot do as I have never even heard of you. As far as I know, you have never led an alliance (if so, feel free to correct me). tRE does not claim we are anything other than a micro, but if an alliance comes to us for protection and economic support then we will not refuse them. This is the official statement from tRE on this matter. P.S In fact, as far as I can tell, TCW doesn't give a shit.

  25. We just need to be more warm & welcoming. Say hi to them, get to know them, & help them out. Show them hospitality instead of letting them figure it out themselves for a long while. Give them a community that will make them a better player, a positive outlook, respectable while responsible, plus someone that can be engaged w/ us. Be a good influence as a mentor that friends/allies can look too.

  27. That new bloc isn’t a threat to anyone. Half of the alliances are known to crumble when under any sort of pressure and the other half are in a completely irrelevant tier.

  29. A lot of alliances have a so-called PermaWar list. A PermaWar List is a list of nations that will be warred till they delete or quit the game. While it was acceptable earlier, the new game rules do forbid such activities. @Alex I do think a clarification in the Forced Deletion rule is needed to address such issues. PermaWarring someone and forced blacklisting them from alliances is a grey area violation of the Forced Deletion rule as the intention clearly is to not let the other person be able to play.

  36. With all due respect, most of the war changes you suggested are terrible. They severely increase the already-existing problem of waking up to a wrecked nation and having 10 people whack a nation at once is ridiculous. You could add more resources, but you have to give them a purpose and you didn't. Baseball is meant to be a fun time-passing metagame. Spy satellites already exist, and the idea of military perks has been brought up before (it actually has a page in-game) and I'm in favor of it.

  38. To make this easier on you, BK is currently considering just saying "screw it" and sending out 32 recruitment messages (1 from each member) to every player in the game. /s

  39. Yes, throwing in a joke "join bk" at the end of the post is the same as sending three simultaneous recruitment messages. Thank you for pointing this out so that the people can be informed when evaluating this thread.
