FTL best Discord server not included... literally 1984...

Feature/s: https://test.politicsandwar.com/nation/military/ Feedback: If you try and build an invalid amount of military (ex: more than the possible amount), it should still give you clear errors on why you're not allowed to, I like the old error messages of "you cannot build over X%" and stuff Potential Solutions: Just copy over the older error messages xd Feature/s: https://test.politicsandwar.com/nation/military/research/ Feedback: Some of the boxes are too crowded with dialogue: Potential Solutions: Maybe at least put newlines between them, or indent into bullet points?

Gonna kick a few members and post a RoH if that's cool with you

Uh, isn't this something that makes this problem worse and not better? Like Themonia and Ketya said, this obsoletes "elite" alliances that rely on maintaining a city edge over mass member alliances and however you put it, it means you're trying to push for an easier unified tiering of mass members toward this mean. I forsee tiering becoming even more intense as a result, which does nothing to improve what tiering has already ruined in the game. I also 100% agree with Themonia that at this late stage in the game, making the older playerbase feel even more useless or that their time has been wasted is not the way to go. New player retention is not any worse than it was a few years ago, the only thing that's changed is that overall most everyone is less engaged in the game, and subsequently, it's become far harder for new players to break out in gov because there is both a less diverse and interesting climate to do so and a less engaged senior gov or membership interested in passing the torch or mentoring these groups of players. I also think that in general, this change could be very dangerous for the game economy itself. City projects were made to be resource sinks and suddenly refunding every single one is going to flood the market and devalue a lot of things very badly. Furthermore, we are going to have an accumulation of wealth in the higher tiered alliances, who are going to be both less willing and able to build cities and uninterested in spending on very much else. Just food for thought.

As someone in an elite alliance, I think the experience we bring to the table is still very valuable, but because the stupid ass meta of the game is completely optimized for tiering and high tier cities now, it is very correct by definition that mass member alliances will achieve this growth far easier than small alliances given sufficient econ gov. Is it killing the game because everyone optimizes toward the same lame meta? Yes. Is anything ever going to be done about it? No.

It's very clear that PnW is no longer Sheepy's passion project anymore, and has not been for some time. Like I've been saying, ad money is being pulled out of the game, we are no longer the target development demographic, and game dev progress is only being advanced at a snail's pace by players themselves and not by Sheepy himself anymore. In short, we are the cash cows and he is gonna milk us until the game dies out. Incentive to buy credits will continue to increase. An unfortunate existence!

Nothing no special thanks for the goat BUCK TURGIDSON and his nation DARWINIUM OF SLUGS... curious...

I was almost surprised when the Stormlight Archive series went up for sale on Black Friday and I didn't hear a single TKR post about it

Low tier raids are a ploy to funnel money from free ez farm low tiers into building high tier cities after they quit and have all their funds seized by the alliance #deathtolowtier #lowtierarentpeople

TRUEEEEE

You're telling me someone who's sketchy and someone with bad in their name should be telling me what I think about my alliance

You know what, at least your rebrand isn't as terrible as this one was rip those 3 credits

I have been, I'm retired for a reason Test your code

And some people thought you were joking PnW in 2024 folks

Here's something fun y'all should probably know: the achievements that were stated you could win currently do not even exist in-game. There is no way you can currently get them, or the cash associated with winning them. If you want proof, just check the achievements page: https://politicsandwar.com/nation/achievements I have also personally confirmed this, as apparently one of the teams needed to finish adding them hasn't done their part, a week well after Halloween. Supposedly they're still being tracked anyway, if that's any solace to anyone, but I don't think even the dev team has checked if it's being tracked correctly. In the meantime, who knows if any of you guys actually got those achievements? It certainly doesn't mean a whole ton of food is being burned for no reason or anything. In the public interest of laziness, here's a list of every trick and treat I've gotten. Feel free to add on your own if I missed some, if you'd like to confirm if you have or don't have all of them: Treats: Your Income has been increased by 1% for six turns. Your resource production has been increased by 2.5% for six turns. Youve been given 3 days of VIP. Youve been given $5,000,000 Towards your next city. Youve been given $100,000 for each city you have. Tricks: Your youve lost 0.1% of your food. Your crime has been increased for three turns. Your pollution has been increased for three turns. Your flag has been tomatoed for three turns. Your raw resource production has been randomised for six turns. Add that onto the numerous formula errors... Parts where the code wasn't even working correctly... And... whatever this is... This has been the best PnW update ever! Of course, this isn't the dev team's fault, as announcing an unfinished feature, not announcing that it was unfinished, testing that it actually worked, and doing a simple grammar check would simply have been too much work. Please don't blame them for their transgressions! This is certainly not a recurring issue where the quality of code and number of bugs has deteriorated over the past year! PnW in 2024 is a great experience! Have a good day friends ^w^

oblivion ******** sucks jesus i wish those guys would die already

BRO ACTUALLY DECIDED TO DOUBLE DOWN

This isn't even a good lie. Take your AIslop and GTFO.

Not just me who thinks this is Dall-E AI generated, right? If this is actually your 3D render, I'd like to see some proof.
