⁤Black Skies, ⁤ ⁤In the abyss of our dominion, we, the Masters of Death, bear witness to your crimes against the natural order. ⁤⁤The despicable act of countering counters has disrupted the delicate balance between mortality and life. ⁤⁤The winds whisper of your defiance and in response to these actions, we declare war upon your to rectify the tear in the balance you have created. ⁤ ⁤Your existence, although shrouded in the cloak of impending doom has earned our wrath. ⁤⁤The sinister march of the Masters of Death shall descend upon Black Skies, seeking retribution for the destruction of the balance that bind life and death. ⁤The alliance that once thrived in the shadows of the black sky will crumble before the might of our chilling decree has MM releases it final decree. Prepare for the impending darkness, for the whispers of death shall guide our relentless pursuit until Black Skies are consumed by the eternal night. Despite the chilling effect of Magister Mortalis and Atlas Corps attempts for peace the balance was shifted and terms were refused and laid to rest by Black skies TLDR Magister Mortalis formally declares war on Black skies for countering counters, refusing to find a peaceful resoltuion and fishing for SS along side our Allies Atlas. Sincerely, Magister Mortalis

Atlas Corp Military Complex, Foreign Affairs Office. Atlas Corporation prides itself in its pursuit of growth and the sweet sweet stench of new cities to expand our operations into, however our humble endeavours have been put on hold by an unfortunate and easily avoidable road block. Black Skies is known for its reputation of countering against counters, inciting violence that is unnecessary and promoting illegal and aimless wars. Such has been the case in this latest development. Black Skies unfortunately refuse to accept the attempts at a peaceful resolution offered by Atlas Corporation and its partners as a result of the counters against legal counters from Atlas contractors and later our partners in Magister Mortalis. Atlas Corporation regrets the outcome of this situation, however our contractors, shareholders, and partners come first. TLDR Atlas Corporation declares war on Black Skies for countering counters and refusing to find a diplomatic solution. In Blud, We Trust. You like what atlas corp is doing?

When Black Skies makes a mistake we're forced to pay for it with forced disbanding. We will not disband. This war is simply an attempt at removing a community from the game. We will leave on our own terms. Black Skies recognizes the IQ moves by Atlas Corporation and Magister Mortalis.

Alan, friend, I'm not entirely sure you'd even have much of an alliance to disband after this with the way you manoeuvre it.

but... but... you told us you would 😭 i thought you would honor your saying

Is beating up Black Skies just going to be the new way for micros to prove themselves?

sorry no war until the tags are set correctly

[removed due to unauthorized public statement by poster]

I wouldn't count repeated illegal counters even during negotiations as a "mistake". You've been a scourge on Orbis for a long time nobody is going to legitimately believe your screenshots that have been obviously been fished for. I think you've forgotten you're the aggressor here.

the people that just got blitzed by KT? yes they are

Good luck guys 💙

Extensions treaty type has been added to the game.

One thing I want to bring up is that a lot of people have put in a good amount of effort to make meme videos. This is the first time I've seen this many meme videos outside of my own in a long time. I want to personally applaud everyone who has contributed a meme video and expect much more from y'all in the future. With that said, back to shitposting.

When on an Alliance i made a deposit with, for me was a lot of money. The fighting pacifists are holding my Assets. I did everything possible but without success. Thanks

I when inside a alliance. I deposit money in their bank. Now they won’t pay me back after I have panicked and left during war time . I didn’t want my nation to get destroyed since we were losing. I join winning side instead

This should be Alex's favorite suggestion ever because it'll incentivize donations for more than just selling a credit or quick cash. Player choice! 1. Change the donate for infra option to "bring a city up to 2700 infrastructure" instead of additional 100. The ingame tool tells me (with discounts) that this is roughly $32.9m so makes it slightly more cost-effective than actually redeeming a credit for cash. Even more cost-effective without the discounts. 2. Reduce VIP party to 20 credits and I think a lot more alliances would be buying this regularly. Even though it's less per purchase, I think it would result in more purchases making up for the difference as many people buy 20 credits a month as-is and may do so for this purpose. 3. New City Timer Reset: Reduce to 2 credits. 3 is a bit rough and uneven. 4. National Project Timer Reset: Increase to 2 credits to make it even with city timers. 5. Location Change: Reduce to 1 credit and I think you'll see an increase in usage similar to the VIP party reduction logic. 6. Even at wartime prices the resource redemption is perpetually less cost-effective than redeeming a credit directly. I think cash should be the least cost-effective option rather than the most as the "king" resource people really want. Most people would redeem resources to sell, so adjust appropriately to be slightly more than $30m at least in wartime pricing. example: 150k food for 200PPU is exactly $30m, what I can redeem a credit for directly. Selling a credit would probably get me an extra few mil on top of that. 7. New donation idea simple to implement: Your vote on your color bloc name now counts for double for VIP members (so 1 vote turns into 2 for VIP, this also factors into the VIP party change as now smaller AA's trying to take color names will snag cheaper VIP party to do so).

It's alan, the guy in Orbis nobody takes seriously because of how much of a clown he is

Like I said in my DoW all he does in FA talks is fish for anything he can use

Why a joint DoW 🔧?

Alanfall number X

For MM!

wardogers shouldn't get a single penny imo

As of today:

Another forum thread 😭

His assets were frozen after he left the alliance, as it is during wartime, and that is what our policy dictates. We were trying to help them with the withdrawal process, and then they left. They weren't trying to withdraw everything, hence no need to explain not to withdraw a large amount - we would have approved a withdrawal if they needed. I don't really know why I'm needing to explain our Policies on a public forum, especially considering I had already informed this ex-member what was happening even prior to this thread being created

Come join my alliance. Serious.

Well you know what this means, right? Now we need @Alex to actually sing it for a genuine comparison.

I will assemble a team of my finest men.

Nobody is going to care about my opinion but I’ll give it anyway: Regarding Syndi’s CB: I personally see T$’s perspective as the correct one. Syndicate sees Singularity as a hostile party, and has made that clear to Orbis through the current war. Your choice to ally Singularity is yours to make, and nobody is really trying to stop you. But by doing so, you are showing Syndi that you’re choosing to be the opposition. (The enemy of my enemy is my friend, the friend of my enemy is also my enemy.) Syndicate is at war realistically in a preemptive state. They declared on you because the likely hood of you being a hostile party next war cycle is very high, based on their knowledge of Singularity and your choice to ally them. How else were they supposed to act? Be fine that their enemy is growing stronger? Just assume that “oh TFP chats with us in an embassy they’ll make Sing like us”? They made a move based on the facts they had, and if I were in their shoes I would have made the same choice. Regarding the TFP WELP relationship From an outside perspective looking in, it feels like you’re making these moves with the sole purpose of avoiding a war. Which, perhaps is necessary for your alliance direction, I too have made moves as an alliance and pushed our sphere to move in a direction to avoid conflict from time to time, but it’s also important that you value your relationships as an alliance as well. I know a thing or two about getting absolutely steam rolled side by side with my allies, but that’s the point, it was with my allies. When you and I had our conversation regarding the fact that “It’s not like we’ve got lines of ppl waiting” when I asked about your direction, it’s likely because people recognize that you went for two easy wars (vs Fortuna, then vs ODOO) but as soon as, perhaps, things may have been stacking against WELP in some for or another, you jump ship to go with a party that has already had their rolling. It makes people think before allying you. TL:DR: Two very major diplomatic mistakes on TFP’s part in my opinion. While I like you guys personally I understand T$’s move entirely and I also understand why it was particularly difficult when you were seeking protection post-WELP pre-Sing. Best of luck to both sides fighting, and thanks for making them food prices soar. Churning in the dollars over here.

I may not be fighting for TPF this war, but I can't help admire your continuous effort for writing up detailed and meaningful posts @Shwin. All the best and I hope issues can be solved soon.

It doesn't?

All FA is based on assumptions. As much as we would like to know exactly what rumors to believe and what talk to dismiss, that simply isn’t a possibility. Couple our intelligence with the fact that former allies of TFP are in this very thread talking about them plotting against SAIL, add in that they are planning to ally Singularity, and to me our assumption seems more than reasonable. Given our history, we do know full well that alliances are capable of political nuance, but that simply isn’t the picture we have here. The picture we have is an alliance scheming against us and intending to ally another alliance who’s whole FA policy is based around wanting to see us rolled. We don’t want to believe that TFP will just go along with Singularity, it’s what we must believe based on a preponderance of evidence. And since you mention history, I would like to remind you of our rather unpleasant string defensive wars not too long ago. Given our history, we also know that it doesn’t pay to be reactive, to make moves only when absolutely positive of their necessity. Sometimes you need to act on logical assumptions. We have only created a self fulfilling prophecy in the event which the assumption that TFP was going to try to reel in Singularity is true, which I am very much skeptical of. I won’t speak for the alliance as a whole in this part, I personally don’t have any objections to Singularity’s actions at face value. They have an FA department that will do what an FA department does: try to promote their interests and work against the interests of their enemies. That’s the whole politics side of the game and I don’t fault them for playing it. My trouble with their actions is that they’re directed at us, so I think it naturally makes sense for us to respond in kind.

What really happened:

With the investment, the thatch roof of our legendary Inn and Alehouse will instead be clay tile. There's a special ale to be brewed, I suspect. We welcome your coin and sword, Adventurer Capitalist.

Currently setting up a personal offshore in this new tax haven we have identified, with military backing from HQ I forsee the security of the investments made here being top tier. Hope you enjoy foreign investment TSC!

themonia... Wait your the pixel hugger who was blaming Popat for no reason and now your after me.

Could change the default option to say "Select a resource" instead of coal.

you get a massive gold star for seeing higher taxes for new nations and not defaulting to "but muh independence 😭" - good luck wherever you end up!
