So WTF, I remember when I used to actually not care about them, cool to see that they are making me actively not care about them again.

Well shiver me timbers! We sprung a leak! Raid them till they tell you where they stashed Lenin's body! We need it preserved!

Take my hand and we'll make a shadow. As a 2L, I feel like I should advise you to stay away from law school

So what I'm reading here is that Odyssey essentially did the following

This seems like a good starting point, I'm sure I'm missing something here that would need to be changed. From what I am reading, though, this seems to be at least a partial solution to making individual war outcomes more uncertain with some back and forth. Would Naval blockade still be after one IT? As there is no way to partially block trading.... Unless, one IT with a naval attack stops the ability of the losing country to trade with nations, but not their ability to receive id directly from their alliance. The second IT would fully blockade them. What about that?

Good luck, stay alive, push for your members to be active and raiding... Ignore people telling you to give up. Just don't go inactive on your alliance members.

Glad to see another community already established become fully fledged here in the world of Orbis. Good luck, hoping to engage with you in the future!

The idea is to encourage them to engage and feel involved. We do not want them to join an alliance that gives them strict instructions on how to play the game, kicking or defunding them for non-compliance, while at the same time not informing them of the Discord/community discussions and memes/jokes that make up the bulk of the game. That's why most new players quit, they realize (or worse, they never are told) that unless they are engaged in the Discord channels, OWF, or they are in on all the memes/jokes there is nothing more to this game than sitting there like Stanley pushing the buttons his alliance leader tells him to push.

Or how about not even in a major alliance?

This is what makes me split on whether this is a good idea or not, everyone would do this towards the beginning of wars in order to better themselves which would then make RNG for wars even more of a weighted factor than it already is. If your missiles miss and they hit your power plants, welp, enjoy sweet death. IDK, interesting idea that really gets the blood pumping on a Monday afternoon.

Truth is, no one cares about mini spheres or "balancing" unless they are the ones with the power to broker it

Some day Ronny, some day I'll be big enough to give you the bop on the nose you deserve. Nice to know you checked out my nation page and see that I role with OG @Pika right now.
