    (Side note, very rare you should ever be accepting peace on a defensive slot, shortens your time in beige and frees up critical slots for the opponent to declare on more people)

     

    Can confirm, was fun to have people accept peace with someone ready to immediately take the slot 😎 @lancelot1

    With the previous war having recently wrapped up and the current one just beginning I'd like to start a general discussion thread of what needs to be tweaked besides beige mechanics, that will be its own discussion later. Posts about beige will be deleted to avoid thread derailing. This thread is more for things like "Spies still kill to many spies", or "Air should kill less ships", those sort of tweaks. All combatants please share your thoughts and I'll work with the dev team and Alex to implement some tweaks down the road.


    Thanks!

    List of changes to consider (Being updated as we go):

    • Spies kill too many spies
      • Perhaps need to up spies produced per day
      • Perhaps need a protected way to rebuild spies

    I'm not so sure its so much that spies kill too many spies; the more specific issue might be that spies take too long to rebuild (4 per day with projects is a help).

    Alright. So is it possible that they were simply planning how to counter attack in the event that they were attacked? That is what all the anti Quack forces have said, so it would fit with the evidence. 

     

    Actually, I started thinking, perhaps they were tipped off that Quack was going to attack and so began planning the counter attack for that reason. I was in TFP before the war started. As far as I know we didn't do sheets, but we certainly suspected that Quack might attack us soon due to their military build up, so we built up militarily as well. 

    Presuming TFP behaves like a normal alliance, as a normal member, you would not see or know anything about these sheets until very shortly before you declared war. Alliances don't just tell their general membership 'oh, we are creating sheets to declare war on XYZ next Tuesday'

     

    Not too interested in relitigating the previous conflict given the facts that have come out more or less confirm what Quack believed; but that's just an observation that might be relevant.

    In all fairness the Immortals-Rose treaty is from before that war (I can't remember the name) where 3 smaller spheres fought Quack, so there's nothing new here, but that just makes all the hegemony whining even more pathetic.

    Oh yes; we know all about that. 

     

    It's a good thing Phoenyx is not here, or we would never hear the end about secret treaties and secret leaders 😂

    Hello everyone, I and my assistant I'm Alive are making a supermarket. First of all, we will have a logo contest with 1M as the price, pretty small, ik, but $ is $! Secondly, we will buy your old stockpiles for a reasonable price as well! We sell VIP for exquisite offers, and we DO have counting for giveaways https://discord.gg/tycw5CWqWF is our link, and finally, we are very customer-friendly and use Locutus to view customer history and approval.

     

    You sell VIP? Is that a legal operation? 

     

    Quote

     it is against the rules for players to make exchanges of real-life money or goods for in-game materials

    I would take exchanging VIP for in-game money or resources (or however you work it) to be in contravention to this rule. Please correct me if I am wrong.

    said she wants to kill communists. 

    Oh, and if you can't tell they were joking you are either stupid

    Some jokes aren't ok though. Especially not those related to those who committed atrocities (including the USSR fwiw). That's just in bad taste.

    This post is complicated enough without me trying to find something you're referring to. So I'll just say that I believe the -reason- that Ronny won't reveal his HM leader source is probably because that HM leader doesn't want to be revealed. As to why Boyce doesn't want to elaborate on where he got this notion that tCW, HM and Swamp were probably going to attack in December or January, I'm also not sure, but I suspect it's because he either knows or suspects that his guess didn't have much evidence behind it. 

    No. Its because you are a totally irrelevant person. Have you any idea what you are asking? 

    You're asking for the leader of a major alliance to leak confidential talks that he had with another alliance leader. Should he leak this, this therefore means that other alliance leaders will be less inclined to speak to him, because they have no guarantee that what they say will not end up on the forums. No serious alliance leader would ever consider revealing these things to a general member not even in his own alliance (except a certain ex-leader of TCW :P ). These backroom conversations are none of your business.

    No doubt it would be interesting to know all these things, and no doubt it would be beneficial to Quack's cause, as further evidence of what we already know. But just because you want it, doesn't mean you will get it, because ultimately, its none of your business. Your job is to fight wars for your alliance (which you have failed to do, I do hope you're on the No Pixel Order list) -- not to engage in pointless "investigation", weeks after the war comes to an end.

    What do you hope to achieve? For the anti-quack coalition to say "oh, sorry, yes, we were going to attack Quack"? That's water under the bridge -- come the end of the NAP in April, there will be new tensions, and new conflicts as the cycle goes on and on. We may even find ourselves fighting alongside the same people we were bitterly arguing with just a few months prior.

    Regarding this Global war, I think I know quite a bit. But by all means, feel free to prove me wrong :-p. 

    Seeking proof involves the ability to admit you are wrong.
