    I thought it would be a fun blast from the past to show people. I meant to include info on our old flag too, but I forgot when actually typing it up. Would you believe that TKR was initially yellow? I think orange suits us much better.

    Orange is definitely a better color for ya haha

    Happy birthday TKR! This alliance has meant so much to me these past few years. Everyone who has been part of the alliance at one point or another has helped shape it into what it is today, but I want to give special thanks to all those who have served in gov over the years, donating their time to make TKR such an awesome place to be. Sharing our government history, for posterity.

    1. This doesn't really read as "minimal coding effort" tbh. That is a lot to add into the code base that would require tweaking multiple areas of the game.

    2. It would take a lot of brainstorming and tweaking to balance this kind of thing.

    3. This would probably just get min-maxed to the point that alliances would include it in their dictated builds to members. But tbf a lot of things are already like that here.

     

    Overall, I think it's a pretty interesting idea, but would require more work than you're estimating to do.

    This forum is for alliance matters not irl matters so for further reference please refrain from repeating this error.

    If you're going to try to self-moderate, then at least get the rules right bud.

     

    In other news, y'all should stop making negative comments about the LGBTQ community and arguing about the morality of it before the mods lock this thread and/or issue punishments. Just saying.

    A Bittersweet Retirement

    in Farewells & Goodbyes

    Retirement Memo
     

    To: Citizens of Orbis
    Date: May 2nd, 2025
    Subject: A Bittersweet Retirement

    The Federation of Knox was founded some four and a half years ago on September 29th, 2020 by Jacob Knox*. Over that time, we have witnessed countless rulers, nations, alliances, and geopolitical blocs come and go. Today, it is with a heavy heart that I write to be the next in that line of nations to go. The Federation of Knox itself will remain standing as a testament to my accomplishments over the past four and a half years—and in case I decide to return some day—but it will remain dormant for the foreseeable future.


    Breaking character for the rest of this announcement, I would like to share that one major deciding factor in my decision to step back from playing the game is that I am expecting my first born son (Sebastian) on July 29th, 2025. In addition to everything else I have been busy with, I am now hard at work making numerous preparations for his arrival. Thus far, all of the tests indicate that he is a strong and healthy boy. I will strive to check on the community as often as I can and stay in touch with those members of the community whom I have created a deep bond with. Thank you all for an amazing four and a half years packed with wars, support, encouragement, camaraderie, etc. I can only hope that at some indeterminate point in the future I will be able to return to playing Politics & War with you all again.

    Tariffs and Trade Based Politics

    Glad to see the old tariff idea is getting attention again!

    Mfw someone posts the same idea that like 10 other people have and thinks it's something completely original. 💀

     

    In other news, I do support introducing tariffs in PnW.
