Noctis 753 Report post Posted December 30, 2018 (edited) Is the 50% tax on cash only or also resources? Would be hard for a nation to grow after expenses if everyone is really stuck paying 50%. Edited December 30, 2018 by Noctis 1 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Simpleton 19 Report post Posted December 30, 2018 (edited) Why does a raiding alliance has taxes in the first place? Alex never made biege loot taxable. And running a negative economy never get you any taxes either. And if you are not running a negative economy then you aren't a good raider.

A Boy Named Crow 296 Report post Posted December 30, 2018 I'm curious. What exactly is Typhon's member exit strategy? Typhon, as an alliance, seems to limit its members to 10 cities. What happens when Typhon members wish to go above 10 cities? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A large proportion of Typhon members are actually farmers. Put another way, Arrgh and Typhon have about the same member count. The first 50 Typhon outdeclares comes out to 12/27 as of this post. The first 50 Arrgh outdeclares comes out to 12/29 as of this post. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guess that isn’t as bad, although think resource tax for members being lower would help them grow faster. They’d be able to take better advantage of buying raw resources when cheap & producing steel, aluminum, etc, with it. Although in order to make that more profitable versus also mining raw materials for what they produce, taxes on resources make it harder. Also nations can produce much of the resources they need during war without as big of a warchest without them as well. (50% on resources also seems harsh if it’s permanent & not a temporary punishment to teach them a lesson when they screw up) 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’m honestly surprised that people would stick around in the face of that kind of penalty. If I was your everyday shitbag alliance member and saw that kind of punishment I’d just up and leave. Hard to understand how someone could remain loyal in the face of that. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A Boy Named Crow 296 Report post Posted December 30, 2018 Well, TBH, the only good thing about Typhon is that they're de facto allied to Arrgh. Otherwise they'd be dead already. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
