Hello Everyone, Voting is now open for all awards under the "Worst" Category!

Deal

Hello Orbis, I'm here today to ask each of you to vote for Greatkitteh as worst forum poster. He's spent years working towards this goal, and I know vindication would mean so much. Not only that, but winning this prestigious award would allow Greatkitteh to continue to create and improve the wonderful OWF content for which we all know him for, and which many simply take for granted. So, when you go out to vote today, make sure to vote for the best, the true future of shitposting. Thanks in advance! I'm TheNG, and I approve this message. Also remember to vote for me as worst alliance leader! This one's for the people!

The Treaty of Darrowmere Lake I. A Sudden Meeting While many secrets remain to be explored on their home continent, the Knights of Lordaeron are nothing if not inquisitive, and send many expeditions to explore distant lands. One such brave party embarked across the open sea, sailing for weeks towards a land on their map marked “North Americaâ€. Upon arrival in the strange land, they were overawed by what they saw, but were suddenly approached by a party of strange men, clothed simply and armed with strange firearms. Both parties inquired as to the nature of the other, and after a bit of parley, the Knights were invited to return to the home of the strange men, who referred to themselves as Acadians. If the Knights had been impressed by this new world, then Acadia was even grander, with towering ships and stoutly built houses spreading across the landscape. Much festivity and pleasure was had that night, and the next day, the leaders of the colony met with the Paladin of the Knights. Thus was a treaty secured between the two great powers, and a new age begun, one of trade, cooperation, and great accomplishments. A momentous occasion indeed! II. Peace Between Equals After surveying the military prowess of the other, both groups recognized that any conflict between them, no matter the justification, would be extremely costly in men and treasure. Thus they resolved to interact as friends and allies, declaring that no Knight or Acadian would ever commit an act of cruel warfare or sly espionage upon those who would henceforth be their allies. III. Of Agents and Tidbits In their great wisdom, both parties made clear that should vital intelligence or an interesting curiosity find its way into the annals of one, then it would by rights be shared with all. In the crucial area of self-defense, the importance of these exchanges could not be overstated. IV. Unity of the Heart and the Sword While the value of the civil arrangements was recognized by all during negotiations, the world is large and filled with dangers of all stripe. Thus to ensure that the survival and sanctity of the other was never threatened, the Knights of Lordaeron and citizens of Acadia vowed to defend each other to the last, and ensure that none remained alone in battle against any foe. Should either be threatened, then the other would be obligated by right to come to its defense! V. A Brave Expedition Man is a curious creature, so it is only natural that an adventurous spirit will at times fill the hearts of many. Should such a party ever venture outward, both sides decreed that they are encouraged but not obligated to assist in any way they deem necessary. VI. Not all Legends Have a Happy Ending While those who first conceived of the compact believed many years of peace and prosperity would result, they recognized that nothing in this world if forever immutable. Thus, should either party decide that formal relations are no longer in their foremost interests, then those relations may be severed after a notice of 72 hours. Should the unthinkable happen and one party cease to exist, then its remaining assets and followers will be afforded the full protection and might of the other for 72 hours as well. ​/Signed for Lordaeron/ High King: Kylo Ren Crown Prince: Kelson Duke: James XVI Paladin of Internal Affairs: Sonic Paladin of War: Solaire Paladin of Foreign Affairs: Britishdude Paladin of Economics: Talerong Captain of Foreign Affairs: Penguin Captain of War: Charles Talleyrand ​/Signed for Acadia/ Lord Proprietor: TheNG Patroon: George Clooney Cape Merchant: Kyte Intendant: JD Keller Archivist: Anymou Captain: Dorsaiwolf Boarding Officer: Magnanimus Armourer: Clarke Chief Agent: RightHonorable Intelligencer: ColoringNick ​​tl;dr Acadia and Lordaeron now have an MDoaP

Trust me, I have many friends in the carrier community, they love me down there! And I love them. Although, the last time I tried to invest, they called it insider trading. Now that's some speciesism!

Congratulations Hogwarts, and best of luck! I'm loving the announcement, nicely done Partisan. o/

​Kastor took our bank and promised that he'd give it back if we protected him. Acadia protects Lordaeron, you know the drill.

Can you tell viewers how to "borrow" an alliance bank? Don't ask why I really they need to know.

While NAC and DEIC are both members of TC, they don't have exactly the same set of treaties. With that said, all existing treaties from both alliances have been carried over to Acadia.

The name specifically references this (the Dutch occupation of French Acadia), but nice catch!

Well, since the in-game alliance is DEIC re-named, Acadia is still one of the oldest alliances in the game. You can't kill an ancient that easily

History Marches on, but Legends Never Fall At the conclusion of the 18th Century, it was no secret that the Dutch East India Company had fallen on difficult times. Weighed down by rising costs, dropping profits, and outmaneuvered by nation-states and corporate rivals, the Company’s territory and assets were eventually nationalized by the Dutch government, closing a chapter in history. Or did it? Before their ships were to be handed over, a small group of DEIC administrators, merchants, sailors, and mercenaries came together, seeking to continue on the ideals that the Company represented. Led by the indomitable hero Admiral Steve, they gathered supplies and set sail for North America, a new world of new possibilities. Battered by storms and other difficulties, the beleaguered fleet finally reached the coast of America, where they happened upon another colony. A hardened group of explorers and pioneers had staked a claim to the land, calling themselves the North American Confederacy, and were eking out an existence in the harsh but bountiful land. The two groups parlayed, the Confederates eager for the resources and experience of the Dutch, who for their part looked for a place to begin anew. After days of intense negotiation, the representatives of the two groups emerged, hailing a deal. A new colony was formed, with brave men and women from both sides coming together to form something greater. From their humble beginnings in America, they would soon rise to inscribe their name into the history books. The story of Acadia had begun... The Dutch East India Company and North American Confederacy are pleased to announce that effective of this announcement, they are coming together to form a new alliance: Acadia The Government of Acadia is as Follows: Leadership Lord Proprietor: TheNG Patroon: George Clooney Finance Cape Merchant: Kyte Internal Affairs Intendant: JD Keller Defense Captain: Dorsaiwolf Boarding Officer: Magnanimus Armourer: Clarke Foreign Affairs Chief Agent: RightHonorable Intelligencer: ColoringNick During the transition period, Acadia is protected by Roz Wei, United Purple Nations, and Polaris. All NAC nations changing over are also protected by these alliances. Forums and IRC are being worked on as we speak, so we’ll have another announcement soon regarding those!
