Winner is ...... Skull & Bones ! Everyone give them a round of applause! All jokes aside good luck and lets destroy some pixels.

Come on @Commothat was the laziest DOW I saw in a long time. I mean, you went straight for the point which is fine but was it so hard to add a meme or pic of proof of Alans misdeeds. Use of bullet points would have been nice. It just feels rushed you know. So it makes me wonder if you didn't give even a little bit of care to this post, are the claims you make real?

@Thalmor Sorry the link didn't work for me do you mean this nation

Given the Auction rule on payment I assuming what you want is to put your own Alliance for use in weapons testing. The Aequitas International was it?

Auction is closed Greetings lovely people!!! I was given a great honor to announce the start of Arrgh’s Missile/Nuke Auction!!! You may ask yourself what a Missile/Nuke Auction is. It’s simple, you pay us to test new upcoming missile/nuke mechanics on an Alliance of your choice!!! Do you know someone that needs to be taught a lesson in manners? Got swindled by some bank? Have a lifetime grudge on whatever alliance that got under your skin? Then this might be your chance at revenge! Auction will end on July 23rd to July 24th Day Change if by any chance the declare blackout is still on we will extend the deadline Minimum bid is 100m. We promise at least 1 round on the target and at least six times damage done of what is paid (for example: if the payment is 1b we will do 6b min) To bid please message Sam Cooper, our great Grand Admiral, on Discord. So go and start biding, our debt from Robert's trip to Disney Land won't cover itself! Anonymity is guaranteed. If the winner doesn’t pay up in a reasonable time period their alliance will be the target in question.

I don't even know how t' say this but .... we ran out o' RUM. I 'n Doom started crying in each others arms in our despair, Hatebi was panickin' unsure how she will keep sprogs calm durin' crew, Roberts started writin' a strongly worded letter t' provision procurement cabin 'n Bluebear was suck head first in the last rum barrel. Sam? Sam didn' panic. He knew wha' t' do. Thar be only one galleon in Orbis that he knew that has enough rum, ale 'n drugs t' supply us now 'n it has been a long long time since any o' us took shore weigh anchor. Sam stood up from his throne 'n gave his order: -Stop whinin', set sails t' FLORIDA! Vacation photos:

I am with MinesomeMC on this one A proper raiding alliance does not need any papers/treaties, they just reduce the amount of targets a raiding alliance has. What they truly need is a proper banking system/offshore, if raiders can't be 100% sure that their loot is safe they will leave. For raiders AA wars are just another day, after all we deal with counters on daily basics. Even if you are outnumbered and outgunned a good raider will continue making profit, have positive net damage. Can't even recall the last time I actually needed to use my savings to continue fighting. I guess it could be argued that a "protector" provides a reliable banking services that are essential to a raiding AA but I would argue that even a micro/nano raiding AA should always look into ways to make sure that they have full control over their banking. Then there is always a chance that those papers will drag your ass into unnecessary AA wars, can cause some FA headaches for you and the "protector". Over all those treaties just end up being a massive bee sting to your behind down the line. TL;DR

TL;DR After continuous unprovoked wars from Sanctuary, not to mention sending counters to our counters, Arrgh formally recognizes the hostilities and prepares to deal with them accordingly.

This forum post is a message... and part of a system of messages... pay attention to it! Sending this post was important to us. We considered ourselves to be expert salt collectors. This post is not a place of honor... no highly esteemed deed is commemorated here... nothing valued is here. What is here was dangerous and repulsive to others. This message is a warning about danger. The danger is in a salt mine ... it increases towards a center... the center of salt is here... of a ridiculous size and shape, and below us. The salt is still present, in your time, as it was in ours. The danger is to the body, and it can kill from laughter. The form of the danger is an emanation of salt. The salt is unleashed only if you substantially disturb this place verbally. This place is best shunned and left unread. P.S we're off to shining orange seas to get some more salt, well more of a pond really P.S.S. Mass raid on Empire of the Romans and The Knights Radiant. Lets have a good one!!!

THE AUCTION IS CLOSED LANDLUBBERS!!!!

THE AUCTION IS CLOSED!!! sniff sniff I can already smell pixels burning evil laughter

Last call to bid 😁

Top bid still at 591M

an update to the mass bids

First, I would like to thank all who are involved in the Global War 20. Nothing warms my heart more than seeing pixels burn so I thank you for an early Christmas gift. Now with less than a week left until the end of the auction, day change from 17th to 18th, we at Arrgh bring you a little update on the current top bids. Now unfortunately I cannot tell you who bid, client confidentiality, or who they bid on, we do not want to ruin the surprise, then again if the client wants to tell we will not stop them. Top Five Bids: 591M 500M 500M 500M 300M Now I would like to remind you that bids on the same targets are combined so even a small 100M bid might change our final target as the top bids are so close to one another and we do not take any money up front, we will put you on naughty list if you bid and do not pay if you win. As mentioned by Zim, this is a perfect opportunity for you to involve us in the current global for a steal of a price. Now this bad boy can do Billions in damage for the fraction of the price. It is old, no doubt about it but do not let it fool you that it is not capable. The best part is it is exceptionally reliable, needing no maintenance on your part. One cannot go wrong with Arrgh brand. To bid contact Ogaden, for more information see https://forum.politicsandwar.com/index.php?/topic/32405-arrgh-first-ever-mass-raid-auction/ The top 5 bids will be updated every day leading to the end of the auction.

We will do 2 times the bid in damage or 2 rounds. It goes without saying but we will do as much damage in the first round as possible we love seeing pixels burn 😃

Good morning/day/evening/night one and all!!! As the end of this most boring of NAPs, Arrgh’s wonderful birthday and the upcoming holidays are so close to one another we at Arrgh have decided to give something back to the community in the most scurvy pirate way possible. So, I am excited to announce our first and hopefully not last MASS RAID AUCTION!!! Do you need someone to make an alliance suffer for their insolence towards you but can’t because you are in the same sphere? Maybe you need someone to be occupied with countering some mass raid before you blitz them? Is there an alliance that you really want to see burn but just don’t have enough people with nukes? Look no further as this is an opportunity for you! Now we at Arrgh always keep our mouths shut when it comes to contracts, and this is no different. We don’t care why. We don’t care who. If you or someone you know are interested, please contact Ogaden on Discord (Ogaden#3349) or send a message in game to his lovely nation (267604). Smallest bid is 100M. If two or more people bid on the same alliance the bids will be combined. The auction starts NOW! It will end on December 17th to December 18th day change server time. The winner will have 4 hours to pay up or we are moving to second place and so forth if need be. We will hit on the closest day change. The mass raid will last until the damage done is 2 times that of the winning bid or 2 rounds whichever comes first. Anyone that does not pay up will be on Arrgh’s naughty list and will get coal for Christmas. TL;DR Mass raid auction. You bid by messaging Ogaden, min 100M. If you win you pay up and we hit. Anonymity guaranteed.

Maybe. Honestly without it being tested on test server for some time it is hard to say how it would effect politics and AA wars. It might end up giving an incentive for dog piles but then again the game mechanics already gives more that enough incentives for dog piling your rivals. True, but the other blocks would be better off not getting themselves involved and sitting pretty making fat bucks from selling resources to both sides. Hell they could hit you after the war ends 🤣 even if you are on a winning side your warchests would be quite spend while theirs are nice and fat. Not sure it would help them. Most longtime players have enough resources on them to fight under blockade for few days anyway. A block going full 5553 usually makes all other blocks to follow suit except if they have strong reasons to believe they aren't the target so it's unlikely you will get caught with your pants down. Having extra resources won't help you if you can't buy more military then you are losing. As a raider I have been in my share of loosing wars 😅 all the steel, aluminium, gasoline and munitions in the world will never help me win against all 3 counters by themselves. But now thinking about it if you increase the amount of troops you can buy if you are being dog piled...... Hmmm? Anyhow thx for the reply 😃

Players can change their day change timer. I have done it myself, because originally it was 3am local time. 95K soldiers sound about right for a double buy for C9 player. Double buy - buying troops just before day change and just after your day change when you military is reset.
