Who are the big "rivals" in Orbis?
Insert Name Here replied to Husam al-Ghazawi's topic in Orbis Central
Well, they're one of the historic alliances of P&W that are still around, the other 2 being Rose and TKR. You also have the likes of Guardian, but they're not as large, and are usually low profile, not necessarily making power plays, but being involved in pretty much every global war nontheless. Essentially t$ became the most influential alliance in the game after a war called Oktoberfest, where UPN were their biggest rivals. From then on, Syndisphere became the dominating sphere in the game, even though their enemies usually outnumbered them. t$, Mensa, TKR, BK and Guardian were all in the same sphere, and all of them were good at war. Then TKR outgrew t$ and became the main powerhouse in the game till Knightfall, where the psheres looked a bit different. Afterwards we had NPOLT, which was the war where NPO tried to cheat their way into winning the game, failing miserably. Since then, the aforementioned historic powerhouses (Rose, t$ and TKR) continued being the most influential alliances in the game, although t$ went through a rough patch pretty much till their current leader Tarroc took over. Finally, during the past few years, Eclipse emerged as one of the main alliances in the game, consistently being the most successful big alliance, having only lost 1 war so far. -

In terms of the alliances that have fought each other more often, Rose and t$ are probably the biggest historical rivals on Orbis. However, TKR and Rose have duked it out quite a lot as well. In terms of current power dynamics I'd say it's more or less a competition between Eclipse, Rose and TKR, where Eclipse have consistently been better for a while now. The current meta is pretty interesting, since there's 5 alliances that are able to make power plays: those 3 + Singularity and t$, which is a much better situation than the bipolarity we had when NPO were around. -
That's not too bad, actually. Although for bigger nations it's still a small amount.

Only solution I see is raising the max bet, since 10k is peanuts. Other than that, just introduce new games, which has been suggested multiple times but Sheepy doesn't seem interested.

[Nuke Lottery] The Wheel of Misfortune
Insert Name Here replied to Hatebi's topic in Alliance Affairs
This reminds me of the beloved "Nuke @Abbas Mehdi" yearly pnw tradition, which sadly disappeared. -
The more blocs, the merrier. Good luck with this.

Adrienne led TKR during their toughest period, where they lost a bunch of wars, and kept them together through it all. They're a much better alliance for it, and tremedously resilient - one of pnw's historic giants with t$, Rose and more recently Eclipse. I'm sure you'll do a great job. Congrats to the retired Canbec and condolences to the new leadership.

If you want profit, you should try the Clarke's Sister Investment Fund.

Interesting post. I definitely agree with your assessment regarding the 5 most powerful alliances, since they're the ones who can make power plays. Honorable mention to KT who are also very proactive in starting conflicts, but they just don't have the numbers the others have, mainly Rose, Eclipse, TKR and Singularity.

Have you heard of Discord? A Revolutionary Leap by TKR!

I thought you guys at Grumpy communicated via carrier pigeon. -
Join NPO - 100/100 taxes and they even play the game for you.

What does the theme have to do with it? Glad it bothers you, hope you keep enjoying it. Just remembering when we at Oblvion kept rolling WTF when we were outnumbered 2:1 and significantly out-tiered. You should probably worry more about helping your alliance not get rolled so often and worry less about other alliances' themes. Merry Christmas bud.

Honestly I have respect for WTF, they've been a glorified punching bag for so long but they stick around. Shows character, on top off the incompetence to keep getting rolled, but respect for the resilience nontheless.

Milcom is fun for the target lists, although it can be tiring if there's too many nations involved. I don't care much for the spy op allocation related stuff though. FA is very fun if you have the right mindset, like not taking things personally. IA is easy and could be done by a monkey. Econ is simply a huge pain in the ass for me and I'm glad other people enjoy it / don't mind doing it.

Add More In-Game Gambling Options

PvP poker would be cool. And for the sake of pissing money away, roulette and blackjack too. Pretty sure more gambling options have been suggested in the past, so idt Sheepy is interested. -

Why The War Mechanic Should be Removed
Insert Name Here replied to darkblade's topic in Orbis Central
Don't worry friend, people wouldn't be disappointed if you removed war (or politics for that matter) from a game that has both "Politics" and "War" in the name. Think of it this way: would you be mad if you bought a cheeseburger, and it neither had cheese, nor was it a burger? -
