The smell of charred earth rises to our nostrils as we overlook the landscape. We’re standing on a hill, overlooking vast plains of nothingness. A truly nightmarish sight. To think the last war could possibly result in such a cataclysmic event. “Base! Rebel!” a young Dream calls as he rushes towards us. “Yes?” “They’ve arrived!” As Rebel and I turn to face the newcomers, a smile forces its way through my stony expression. “Leftbehind...good to see you as always.” “Likewise. Is everything ready?” “We were merely awaiting your party’s arrival.” We’re all gathered here following the collapse of both our civilizations. Despite our many differences, the devastation caused by the last war has proven all too clearly that our strength would serve us better if combined. A Prophet of the Light had proclaimed the end of time and the Children of The Light had taken his words to heart but my own people and I only saw folly. What use is this Light in the face of our technology? Looking back now, I wish we had combined our strength sooner. As the final member of our triumvirate joins us on the hill, we begin the final preparations to finally unite. No longer will we be known as a cult and it’s virus friends. No...after this, we will be known as Cataclysm in honour of those we lost along the way. In remembrance of the truth of this world. One cannot survive alone... Tl;dr: Error 404 and Children of the Light merge into one as Cataclysm. Alliance link: https://politicsandwar.com/alliance/id=7452

It's true - I did create these accounts with the intention of playing the game on mobile for a bit to see what was working well and what wasn't, improve the mobile UI, and learn more about other ways to improve the new player experience (e.g. tutorial.) My intention was to cover up my multis so that I could at least play for a few weeks and see how it went, but I did a poor job with my first once and then I thought I patched it so I wouldn't show up on the same unique ID for the second account, but again there must have been a bug there. Nothing particularly nefarious, this is something I've done over the years and IMO has led to a lot of quality of life improvements in the game. In fact, one of the most common criticisms I've gotten is that because I don't play the game I tend to make bad decisions in developing it. Other than my main multi account though, Kastor, there's really nothing remarkable to see here. I just went through the tutorial and objectives twice on my phone in the app version of the game.

Ever since 2017 the Golden Phoenix Coalition has been an attempt to reach my goals of becoming an adequate leader and just to have fun doing what I enjoy. There was always a repeating theme, something bad happened and it disbands. Prima Victoria, was supposed to be different. Formed as a rebrand of Golden Phoenix Coalition after another out of game community Terra Nova merged with us. The thing is Prima Victoria will be different. I believe with the help of the syndicate and without the bad reputation I may bring to them, they will do fine. So I, MinesomeMC, will be stepping down from Prima Victoria as it is what is best for the alliance and will allow me to turn a new chapter. I have no idea whats next for me, who i'll move to, but I wish Prima Victoria well and trust The Syndicate to guide them correctly. Prima Victoria Government line up as of July 24, 2021 Prime Minister - Cazaron King - Levi (Project 11) Minister of Milcom - Linda Minister of Internal Affairs - Papi Salamander Any further Prima Victoria inquiries shall be given to Cazaron and Project 11, thank you. Tl; dr - Cazaron replaces MinesomeMC as Prima Victoria's Prime Minister

Fine. I will make the Grand United Soviet Socialist Nation Commune Republic. We will be a macro in no time.

This just in Alex the creator of Politics and War is a cheater! That's right folks we have found and EXPOSED his secondary account!!! The account: "Angus". He is trying to hide behind a different username in an attempt to cover his tracks but guess what? That won't be enough. Alex has been caught. The account: "Angus" is a confirmed fraud account that has been created to hide the identity of someone who is creating new accounts to engage in "suspicious behavior" at this and other forums. This will no longer be a place for users that engage in this sort of activity. As for the account, I will be reaching out to have it closed down. Please be aware that we may find more of these accounts and will be closing them as we find them. For reference: this is one of the first times I have found and reported these sort of activities, I will be watching closely for more of this sort of behavior in the future. Let me be clear, this sort of behavior is not tolerated on Politics and War, whether it is fake accounts, sock puppets, mass creation of multiple accounts, etc. Any accounts found to be created by the same person will be closed immediately. Do not bother to create fake accounts, you will be caught. Users who engage in these sorts of activities will be permanently banned from the forums and game. Below you will find proof that Alex the owner of the game is using multis. Links to the accounts involed. https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=6 https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=346487 https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=346632

Thank goodness we have great mods like Alex to take care of these rulebreakers like Alex. Sorry Alex but Alex has no mercy

Could have named it Children of The Error

The Apocalypse Is Hot 🔥

Im not going to jump into the ooc politics that this thread has devolved into quickly, as I dont think this is the place, but I have to agree with you completely. Not in the regard that there is too many alliances with communist policies/ideologies, I dont really have an issue with alliances being communist per se, but the ones whos names are just different combinations of the words "United, soviet, socialist, commune, nations, republics" are just bleh, They lack any form of creativity or originality. I dont have an issue with communist alliances like ASM, atleast not on their theme, but there are too many alliances where the extent of their theme is "I'm communist, my name is USN#83, I will not merge with the 82 other USNs"

Cool flag 😜

PnW in a nutshell

https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=136681 Full set-up is about a third of Corporate Union's bank value. Timing suggests he just banked it and went into VM. Raiders are currently working on CU, and I'm currently otherwise solo-ing their alliance, so they're at war.

Good luck!

Good luck minesome, great job with your alliance

Good Luck Minesome, wherever you go.

Now THAT'S honesty I never expected.

Congratulations on your formation!

Congrats! I hope the merger fairs well.

Really like the subtle inclusion of both alliances' former themes. glhf

Cataclysm is a kickass name. Congrats, you guys, and best of luck!

Nice to see guys. Good luck!

Excited to see this. Good luck to both E404 and COTL going forward!

Condolences to all parties involved

I'm gonna miss the E404 discord...

Is it fair to say your evil tech doomed us all?

Have you ever considered that Socialism is when no Iphone? I also just found out that all anarchists love stalin and are pro-authoritarian regimes. I better tell all the anarchists I know that we've been doing it wrong and that we should delete all our criticisms of those two things.

im far from fascist, stop being so boring and cliche you little attention seeker

There are way too many communist alliances

Best of luck to both you and your former alliance.

The folks from Error have been teaching us backwards neo-Luddites all about the wonders of technology for the last couple days, I feel like a tribesman from some remote jungle in Papua New Guinea being shown a cell phone for the first time. Now I just need to figure out if there's a bot can make my wife come back to me, please Susan it's been 3 years I just want to see the kids

Good luck on the move to wherever you end up!

All the blocs.

Congratulations! I can't wait to have peace negotiations with you because some idiot raided the other and counters got countered 🥳

when youre a fun little commie anyone who isnt a stalin lover is automatically fascist. thats also true when your favorite pastime is virtue signaling and leveraging the political climate to gain favor in a nation sim, calling people fascist is your default attack, mainly because it works, since theres always some other petty meathead within screeching distance, readying the guilotine. id be surprised if there was any nuance to it but there almost never is, just basic zealotry which is just that, basic and uninteresting. looking forward to the day when calling someone fascist as a knee jerk reaction, is seen as slimey, not martirdom

Better don't mix rl politics with the themes of alliances imo. Every nation has committed massacre at some point. This is why I miss partisan, everyone else sucks with their text wall.

To the entire non western world, scarred and maimed by colonialism and to this day exploited at gunpoint and with self determination taken away by barely covert operations of capitalist powers to simply be exploited for profit by those powers, who have killed already well beyond the supposed (and proven by historians false) claims of the black book long before the US even existed. The horror of Capitalism, and of you and your little friend here, is far more real - and ongoing. I can oppose you without supporting Stalin, or even liking the USSR, and I do. I can oppose you while believing a power or authority of any kind to act in such a manner should never exist, and I do. It seems you can't manage to oppose us though without standing over a body of abused, tormented and exploited corpses, however, all the while chanting for more to be added by the same sort of power you're here trying to heart string pull over your grandfather for, except now that power is on a team you like and hurting people youve arbitrarily decided deserve it. Tell me little fashie, between you and Stalin, what's the difference? Well, Stalin likes the color red at least. And, in his 20s he was actually rather attractive, other than those though I can't think of much to separate you two. Both have a list of people to be rid of, with different methods to get there. I fail to see the use in any significant distinction. Now go back to your private little hole where we all know you talk about and how many heads you want rolling.

the horrors of communism and its death toll of tens of millions of people are debunked... to educated people like you. to me, someone who has a socialist republic birth certificate and a grandad who got a death sentence from your favorite regime, its very much a real thing

Why are there OOC political statements in an IC DoE thread lmao?

You’re a good dude, best of luck out there Arth 🍻

Golden Dawn Reichspakt Several other alliances which don't use the theme but are well documented to have fascist undertones (i.e. KT, Morningstar, Micropoc, etc)

>doesn’t post for weeks >posts >2 days, in the top 3 posters of the week cha cha real smooth Always bet on Shifty

Are you sure the word you're searching for is "interesting"?

"Don't declare counters or the nukes come out" "Raiders got involved, so there will be no separate peace" "We feel comfortable going for months in a war we started" "We'll hit uninvolved parties because otherwise our stats would be slacking" "we would be doing better but foreign powers are secretly plotting against us" "The game is against us" I'm starting to have flashbacks.

Damn, Isjaki making a real change. who knew Camelot would lose an entire spy war to a single spy op from a single c26?

-Using Locutus doesn't mean Borg is literally drawing in all his related alliances to do the spying as well lmao, literally everyone uses Locutus -Locutus actually hinders your spy effort because manual assignment is always better as well -idc if Isjaki is spying or not; he's just one person and you shouldn't be losing a spy war to an alliance half your size lol

Good thing it's not a suggestion!

I wonder which guy in Camelot's EA department thought this one was worth? 😆
