Investor Contact: Keram Media Contact: Tarroc Breaking News: The Syndicate News Network, a subsidiary of the Syndicate Inc. has obtained a video shot on the scene of a shocking bloodbath. This video seems to confirm the rumors of the loss of the Syndicate’s beloved and longtime Chief Global Strategist, WANA. We present to you the video evidence, though we do warn our younger viewers that the scenes depicted in this video are graphic in nature. As Associate's mourn the passing of our fearless leader, we learned he left one last requiem for the world. He truly was a philosopher, visionary, and scholar.

Village and Alex will now be running things. I'm leaving for personal reasons. Was planning this for closer to August, but things have sped up. It's been fun PnW, Pre out.

The problem is that the average player doesn't get to experience those other aspects of the game aside from war. On top of that you have gameplay changes that encourage new players to rush to city 10 (farming tier) asap and miss out on the experience of raiding early on. To be honest, if I found this game during a period of prolonged peace and had everyone encouraging me to not even raid, I probably would've quit within a couple weeks. I get that alliances have to balance their interests and we can't have perma war, but I wish there was a way to get more people involved without jeopardizing alliance security. To bad democracies always fail lol Edit: I just responded to chatGPT didn't I 🤦‍♂️

Tarroc is hot af and will do wonderfully.

I will always have respect and high praise for you. I valued our relationship and wish you nothing but continued success in your retirement. Well deserved after filling tough shoes and treading through the mud.

It's been a pleasure serving with you WANA. Following you up will be no small task, but I'll carry that weight.

Ahhh alliances who don't play the Roberts preapproved way must all disband rather then exercise their freedom to enjoy the game the way they want. I better go disband UPN. Oh wait no the other thing.

¡Hola! 𑁈𑀑𑀭𑀮𑀸𑀓𑀓𑀸𑁈 Hello! Fairness, respect, and collaboration will set the world afire! ¡A LA VICTORIA! 𑁈𑀑 𑀮𑀸𑀓 𑀙𑁃𑁈 TO VICTORY!

These are just my personal thoughts on a topic that is a bit controversial. I've felt recently that there are quite a few alliances in existence that don't participate in the wider community, don't really initiate or even contribute to politics, and generally only ever fight defensive wars when their inactivity or incompetence becomes the center of someone else's war of boredom. The reason I write this is because I feel that there has become an oversaturation of these alliances and we seemingly are living in a time of change for Orbis, so maybe this writing will prompt action. The problem with these groups is usually not their inactivity as they log in often enough to function, sometimes just barely, as an alliance. The problem also does not lie with their incompetence, as the meta and politics are both relatively easy to learn and navigate. The issue is that stubborn pride is like a glacier: Locking up fresh water, inaccessible to the world. These alliances are host to several active players usually working hard to keep the wider group afloat, locked away from the community, and usually stuck in lower government positions long enough to drive them inactive. Cora from UPN is a good example of a potentially great player in an alliance fallen from greatness long ago, and now can only be described as insular on their best day. UPN, The Immortals and Mortals, Dark Brotherhood, TCM, USN, and Gods of Orbis -- just to name a few from the top 50 -- have over 400 nations between them. That's almost 10% of all active nations, locked up like a glacier in insular communities that generally don't drive or even participate in politics. Food for thought.

- Based on when PnW was first released, I am assuming that the Orbis date started in 1982, is that correct? - Do y'all think commercial airlines would be feasible on modern-day Orbis, or would even civilian planes not survive the constant warfare?

I tried helping them but they just want to lie and pretend it’s not a blatant multi deal. https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=551330 (new nation) https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=549968 (Original nation) he tried saying they are “friends” when I confronted him applying for a second time to our alliance. Yet he had the same discord on both after changing his discord account originally claiming an issue registering with Locutus. He’s been hopping alliance to alliance for days under the original account. Either he’s a current banned player trying to re-enter or a sus player trying to ultimately scam others.

Good luck Wana. Enjoy the well earned retirement. We had our ups and downs, but you are good people.

I'm glad I didn't read any of that just to post about nothing.

Firwof is always available still......

RIP. Who's posts will the community be mass downvoting now?

You guys are laughing until the whole internet is gonna look like this one day :cheob:

Oh, Roberts, your words ignite a spark of discord, But let us delve deeper, with reason as our sword. Your claims of alliances lacking vibrant communities, Reveal a limited view, bereft of true opportunities. People play for their own enjoyment, you see, Not to appease your role as the entertainment committee. Their goals and aspirations, diverse as can be, In realms of politics and war, each finds their glee. And what of your own accomplishments, dear Roberts? Running a micro into Tiberius' hands, mere filberts! Three cities and a moon landing, hardly a grand feat, Yet you critique alliances, with arrogance replete. You mention concentration, competitive tiers askew, But why single out others when your own alliance plays true? The Knights Radiant, a beacon in the night, Are they not inclusive, in their own radiant light? Ah, TKR, they signed Quack, formed Hollywood too, MDPs with Celestial, and Grumpy's allegiance anew. While they navigate their path, expanding their might, You demand smaller alliances create intrigue, so trite. Yet many relish the freedom outside major alliances, Where meta's grip loosens, offering unique chances. To those who resist conformity's embrace, Alternative paths provide their own solace and grace. Merging or disbanding, you hastily propose, But the repercussions, dear Roberts, you fail to disclose. Player retention suffers, power consolidated in few, A recipe for stagnation, not the vibrant world we pursue. So let us consider, dear Roberts, the symphony of voices, Embrace the diverse cadence, where each player rejoices. For in this vast expanse, alliances big and small, Together, they shape the realm, creating a tapestry for all.

This AI shit needs to stop. It's not even funny. At least random micros can be original.

Here's some evidence of him (his nation's Discord username is listed as "Tucker Tucker") being quite suspicious in my alliance server. ... and essentially admitting he's under 13, for that matter.

I appreciate your perspective on the issue, and I understand that the use of 100/100 taxes may not be a widespread practice among alliances in Politics and War. It's true that some alliances may have voluntary growth circles or specific circumstances where they choose to implement these high tax rates. However, I believe it's important to address this topic and discuss the potential drawbacks of 100/100 taxes, even if they are not commonly utilized. By examining different aspects of the game and considering various viewpoints, we can foster a more comprehensive understanding and potentially influence new alliances to make informed decisions when deciding their econ style. While it may seem unusual to address a practice that is not prevalent, it is essential to have open conversations about various aspects of the game to ensure a diverse and engaging gameplay experience for all players. By voicing concerns and discussing potential issues, we contribute to the community of this game. Thank you for sharing your perspective, and I encourage you to continue engaging in discussions that contribute to the betterment of our community.

I understand that you're expressing a desire for more war and conflicts in the world of Orbis. It seems you believe that these events bring excitement, engagement, and storylines to the game. While I can appreciate your perspective, it's important to remember that Orbis is a complex and dynamic world where various players and alliances have different motivations and goals. Peaceful periods in Orbis can provide an opportunity for diplomatic negotiations, economic development, and strategic planning. They allow players to focus on building their nations, forming alliances, and engaging in other non-military aspects of the game. These periods can be valuable for fostering cooperation, trade, and growth within the community. Additionally, it's worth considering that excessive and constant warfare can lead to burnout and disengagement from players who may prefer a more balanced and diverse gameplay experience. Not everyone enjoys the constant chaos of war, and it's important to create an inclusive environment that caters to different playstyles. While conflicts and wars can certainly add excitement and create narratives, it's crucial to strike a balance and consider the overall health and enjoyment of the player community. Orbis can evolve and offer engaging experiences through a combination of diplomatic interactions, economic strategies, political maneuvering, and occasional military conflicts. Ultimately, the developers of Orbis have the responsibility of shaping the game's direction based on the feedback and preferences of the community as a whole. They aim to create an environment that caters to a wide range of players and provides opportunities for diverse gameplay experiences.

Perhaps, just maybe Cora from UPN is enjoying her best life in a community she enjoys, and indeed perhaps are many others. I am not against making this game competitive, indeed I don't mind that big alliances have advantages because that is how competition works and competition in a game is good (imho). But what exactly is the reason these people would care for your message? Do you truly think if these people hated their misserable lives as you think they do, they'd still be volunteering to do it? Do you think Cora (just taking her as you mentioned her by name) would not be able to find an alliance if she wanted to? Perhaps, just perhaps they are indeed living their best life.

I would give this alliance 6 stars if I could but this thing only allows me to give 5. There aren't enough words to express my gratitude for Name Withheld. They have made me closer with my friends, they have brought me peace of mind, and, most importantly, they have strengthened my relationship with God. I wasn't paid for this review but I have received free services from this alliance including cities, rebuild aid, and dad jokes.

Don't farm for food, just buy it. Raid inactive nations, sell resources you get from doing so and use your money to buy food.

stop falling for the bait guys :cheob:

Great idea! I have no doubt that the Anti Horridism Obocchama Kun will be victorious. Best of luck. Teach ‘em a lesson.

Project Name: Nuke something Project Requirements: None Project Cost: $250M Project Effect: Allows a second nuke to be produced everyday. …. after being on the losing side for three wars 😂 Similar idea to the above Project Name: Project Requirements: telecom satellite Project Cost: couple billions Project Effect: max commerce to reach to 150% (from 125%)

Project: AI Guidance System Requirements: Space program, Missile Launch Pad Cost: $15,000,000 Aluminum: 7,500 Gas: 7,500 Munitions: 7,500 Effect: Increases chances of missiles to hit against Iron Dome by 20%

Project Name: Anti-Tank Rockets Project Requirements: Propaganda Bureau Project Cost: money: $75,000,000 gasoline: 12,500 munitions: 12,500 Project Effect: Reduces the casualties of the first defensive ground attack of the war by 50% (this project cannot be combined with Anti-Aircraft) Project Name: Anti-Aircraft Project Requirements: Propaganda Bureau Project Cost: money: $75,000,000 gasoline: 12,500 munitions: 12,500 Project Effect: Reduces the casualties of the first defensive air attack of the war by 50% (this project cannot be combined with Anti-Tank Rockets) note: This should help with blitzes a bit by giving the defensive side a bit more breathing room with the initial attacks. I wonder if this could be implemented to where instead of the first attacks, it would reduce it entirely, thus forming a meta where you need to exploits their weakness (GA those who don't have A-TR, and air attack those who don't have A-A). I think a test server tournement would be needed to see the viability of it but I think it would make things interesting in general warfare.

* Advanced Metropolitan Planning Requirements: 26 cities, UP, AUP and MP Cost: 25k iron, bauxite, lead 70k steel, aluminium Effect: Reduces new city cost by 200m * Supersonic Missile Requirements: Missile project, space program Cost: something reasonable Effect: Missiles destroy +3 improvements (atleast 1 powerplant)

I think all American supporting countries should wage a war against communist countries ( idk why i am doing this )

He was not me

Project Name: Treasury Cost: 2 million cash and 100 coal Purpose: Gives you 100 million cash every day

Project Name: Fiber Internet Project Requirements: none Project Cost: money: $1,000,000,000 aluminum: 20,000 steel: 20,000 gasoline: 20,000 munitions: 20,000 Project Effect: Increases the commerce rate in each city by 10%, and increases the maximum commerce rate by 10% notes: The total cost of this project with today's resource prices is around 1.2b. For a city with 2500 infra (250,000 population) this would equate to $217,500 a day from the commerce rate added from the project. So in the case of a city 34 with 250,000 population per city ($7,395,000 for 34 cities), this would take around 162 days to reach ROI. I think the profits of this after ROI might be a bit too high so either increasing the resources required or lowering the commerce rate should help balance it.
