Jaime Lannister Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Seems to me that if one's nukes are being targeted by spies the proper response is to detonate them over the cities of the spying nation. 3 Quote There are no men like me, there is only me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rache Olderen Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 This will either wreck the treaty web if members of this league spy on their allies (I am certain the paperless alliances will be overjoyed) or serve as the CB for a future war. Which would plunge Orbis into another nuclear winter. Keep up the good work.

Dark Specter Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Guess i should start aiming for nukes Quote Amidst the eternal waves of time From a ripple of change shall the storm rise Out of the abyss peer the eyes of a demon Behold the razgriz, its wings of black sheath The demon soars through dark skies Fear and death trail its shadow beneath Until men united weild a hallowed sabre In final reckoning, the beast is slain As the demon sleeps, man turns on man His own blood and madness soon cover the earth From the depths of despair awaken the razgriz Its raven wings ablaze in majestic light Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well anyone who thinks its worth the risk can give it a go, I have to wonder if the chance of getting caught (which will have to happen at some point, can't see the vast majority of people agreeing to this arbitrary limit after all and the spy odds can't be that much in favor of the initiator) it could easily set off the very event the Gentlemen want to prevent.

Betulius Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 The Sheepy change is forcing the players to either be held hostage by nuke users, or contain nuke users to a limited arsenal. There's no neutral ground here as a nuke hit impacts all the players of a continent. or get a larger food stockpile and laugh while everyone else starves Quote Dec 26 18:48:22 <JacobH[Arrgh]> God your worse the grealind >.> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apeman Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 (edited) With the standard 2 to 3 months of peace between wars, the world has plenty of time to buy and grow food. Realistically here people the price of food is only double what it usually costs. As an alliance leader we give it free to members. What are you doing wrong? However I do believe the world needs nuclear guarding. It is horrible to listen to this. Anything we can do to stop the crying messages and forum drama would make this ape get back in his tree top.

George Clooney Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Thanks for the laugh, haha. Good one. Ah the laughter to the ignorant. Stay uninformed, it's what you're good at. Sure, they do it because it's the only tool in a loser's arsenal when they're getting curbstomped. You seem salty. Losing most all the infra in 6 of your cities to nukes will do that. Here's a thought, if you are getting nuked too much for your taste, how about we end the war? Or do you want to have the luxury of beating down others without consequence? This isn't that kind of game, sunshine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brooklyn666 Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 I just don't understand how the league plans to operate in any sort of secrecy. You'll have to perform several spy ops on any target just to get rid of their spies, and then however many ops for each nuke you want to get rid of. The odds are almost certain that you'll be identified during one of those ops. The target would then reasonably assume the ops were sanctioned by the league, and retaliate against the aa of the league member. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willam von Waldreich Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Why not just make a UN for Orbis and have alliance sign a treaty stating you all are going to abolish all your nukes or maintain a small amount and hug one another and get it over with. Seems easier to me. Of course there will be Alliances that wont sign the treaty or sign up with the UN and you can call them "Rouge" alliances or whatever. Just a thought. 1 Quote The United States of Belveria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerys Targaryen Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 As a few pointed out before, if this needs to be implemented, we need support of a lot of alliances and transparency is needed. This is more likely to succeed if alliances initiate, rather than individual members (may be a few from different spheres to represent fairness). A forum for the league would be nice, where players can visit and see what's going on (without signing in) and the politics associated with the league would be really interesting as well. If the league will ever involve alliances (rather than individual nations), then we will join. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
durmij Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Interesting idea. A better one would be balancing the mechanic based on the outcome of it's initial results and actually informing the player base of any changes to come. But this is fine too. 1 Quote https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mjI4ROuPyuY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JUUEHv8GHcE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Restius Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 While a interesting idea in concept I think the first mwasure, if not already in the works or being done, would be to have alliances pledge to follow a set of nuclear guidelines. Much like the UN and nukes IRL. Spying away nukes and getting caught will cause problems, and once the league gets in a state of war how will their alliances react? The idea is noble but the what ifs are undoubtedly numerous. I personally would much rather see alliances agree to limiting their current members to something like the 1/2 limit within their own personal charters and through a global agreement of nuclear armaments and usage. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually the odds of being caught are very low <5% over the course of an entire kill nuke operation. Given a long enough timeline certainly...but its a very long timeline. 1 Quote -signature removed for rules violation- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
