While I haven't actually been in or in contact with Vox I have always respected you for your tenacity and anti authority actions/views. I for one will be sad to see you go.
o/ Vox
Also I doubt anyone will take me up on this, but BOOK would be proud to accept previous Voxians.

No, their cranum is reinforced, Aim for one of their two hearts!
(now thats impressive, sci-fi biology knowledge from over ten years ago)
Heh, good knowledge cyphon, however if you were a true geek you'd know that their chest is also reinforced (Black Carapace)
Plamsa Guns should do it... or a fusion gun? However personaly I prefer the Eldar Witch Blade (yeah I collect(ed) space elves)Welcome back I guess

Good anouncement aside from the flag

Nation Ruler: Pharaoh Bradshaw
Nation Link: New Rianthol
Resources: Iron, Wheat
Which set and circle do you want to be in? Set Three, Circle L
Are there any specific wild card resources that you want? Not as far as I know...
If you are not in Maroon, will you be able to move when the circle is complete? I'm Maroon so that's fine
Are you willing to have non-Maroon trade partners? Yeah why not, but I'd rather be mostly Maroon

Anyone interested?
-
- A democratic alliance. I would like to have a say in the alliance
- An active alliance(IRC or forums)
- A medium sized alliance.
- An alliance that offers tech deals. I'm close to becoming a buyer.
- A open gov position would be nice. (I'm a pretty good recruiter so I'm sure I'll help you recruit)
Don't post saying how you can help my nation grow. I know enough about the game. I don't need any guides .
-Under our founder, we're democratic.
-We're trying our best
'cos we're small it doesn't look like we're massively active but we are -Medium... no sorry we're small, but I hear your good a recruiting and we need people like you
-We're doing tech deals, we need sellers and buyers
-At least one open government position (Marquis of the Treasury) also a possible seat in charge of recruiting.
We won;t do that, in fact, if you'd like to help us grow that'd be excelent.
I know we're not offering loads in comparrison to the other larger alliances, however we'll appreciate you more, and we have potential

See I'd hope that someone would log into this and a few other communities and inform my intwerweb friends that I'd died... however I doubt they'd be thinking
"Geese I should probably let those people on CN etc know about the loss of my Boyfriend/Son/Brother"(Depends who I'm talking about here... not just one person before anyone suggests it). However if I end up dying slowly I'll let a few people know.
So if I stop posting without notice here, on BOOK's forums or on TTK's forums... and stop posting elsewhere I'm probably gone on to my next life... (hmm morbid)
OOC: I knew someone who decided to quit several forums they frequented at once by "faking" their death, they then decided at alater date to return to one and forgot what they'd done... I've never seen so much piss taking in one thread

Excellent news
/me dreams ofone day getting BOOK into said pact.
o/Maroon
Also is it just me or does Raptures flag look squashed in tha announcement?
-
Objective opinion: Most people will go for Sparta... they're the biggest at the moment, and that'll attract the n00bs... also I can see a lot of people going for Neutral alliances to rebuild. A lot of nations were damaged in this war, they'll be looking for a safe haven. Also I can see NSO being a big draw as mentioned earlier, the same but for different reasons FAN and GOONS...
Subjective opinion: The Black Order Of Knights (BOOK) is the way forward
Small but growing (slowly but surely) we're a safe place and a good group of people.Sorry for the shameless advertising.
-
We welcome nations of any size... from the new and slightly scared newbs to the ancient and venerable veterans.
-
Glad to see some freedom on red, however I'm still hoping it'll be a haven from tech raiders...
I know it's a foolish hope, but a hope none the less.
-
Hmm odd name... but still best wishes from BOOK!
-
Best of luck, new alliances are always a good thing
BANZAI!
-
Wars, Guns and Votes is a very good read. I would suggest it to everyone.
That being said, much of what you will learn from that excerpt is actually being utilized (and has been for years) on a much more specified scale within several alliances in the Cyberverse.
The model is sound.
And by several alliances over the populace of Planet Bob in general.
-
Damnit 24 days younger than BOOK and allready out pacing us.
Congrats on things
Maybe we'll beat you to the next milestone
/me goes a recruiting.
-
Well this should be interesting
Glad to see peace break out once more (in a small but bloody theatre of war, but peace none the less)!
OOC: Also I forsee a lot of people rushing to their CP to change their sigs
"Freed FAN"? No nearly so catchy.
-
Just wow...
Congrats FAN, it's been a long time coming.

Honestly as long as a reforming alliance iswilling to accept the past an move that'd fine. For example the new GOONS seem to be a better bunch than the old GOONS (but who knows... time shall tell) and therefore are acceptable as a reform. However if /b/ reformed as they used to be and continued their old regime of general rubbishness that'd be wrong.
Also it needs to be at least partialy formed of original members, preferably founding members, if not some of the members who were in government shortly before the disbandment.
As usual there is no one right or wrong answer, look at each case individualy.

Thanks Nap

Possibly the best peace treaty I've read in along time!

Greetings from the Black Order Of Knights.
We are a (currently) small alliance seeking new members. And if you have clicked this thread you are most likely seeking a new alliance. I shall not rant on about how we will help you grow and that one day we'll be sanctioned etc etc. This is not our way.
We have existed since the First of March 2009, and officialy made our declaration of existance on the Fourteenth of April 2009 alongside a trial protectorate with The Templar Knights, which has rescently been upgraded to a full protectorate agreement.
Many of our current members while small are re-rolls and therefore have knowledge of CN beyond the experience of their current nations. Not only that but we also have amongst us larger nations, meaning we are able to protect nations large and small.
At the moment of this annoucement we have eight nations with a collective strength of 78,452, we intend to grow through a program of tech trading with our protectors in TTK.
Moving on from then more economic aspects of BOOK I shall pitch the alliance as a group of friends. We are all loyal, friendly, open and welcoming individuals, and as we are small you will have a foot in the door for positions in the Council when we run our first elections at some point in the near future. By joining us you will be gaining friends, close allies and staunch protectors in times of need.
To sign up please register on our forums (link below The Charter), and if you feel like chatting drop by our IRC Channel which is #BOOK on Coldfront
Preamble-
We the nations of Black-Order-Of-Knights mutually agree to aid and defend one another in times of peace and war. Our mission is to grow and prosper as individuals and alliance with a sense of respect to other nations and alliances within CN, and be loyal to one and other and to any allies that we have. We look to help anyone who joins us in growing and prospering. We work together to insure that all nations feel welcome and secure. We will work towards being a safe haven for nations that are looking for a solid alliance that they can depend on in times of need.
Article I
Membership
There shall be two classes of membership, the full Knights who are full members, and the Squires who are prospective members.
Knights have full voting rights in elections and may make proposals to change policies and rules. Squires as new members do not have the power to propose new policies and rules, and do not have the right to vote with the exception of certain issues which would affect them directly.
In order to become a member you must fill out a membership application in the Entrance Hall, you will then need to be accepted by one of our officials. Once accepted the new member shall be classed as a Squire and shall be assigned to an existing member, the existing member shall guide their Squire through the rules, etiquettes, factions and other parts of life within the Black Orders of Knights and Cyber Nations itself. At any time the Squire may take a test to become a full knight, once they pass this test they shall be classed as fully fledged knights.
Any Knight or Squire is free to leave the alliance by posting in the resignation thread as long as they have not accepted aid, if so they may be required to pay part or all of the aid back as decided by an official from the treasury department.
Article III
Government
Black-Order-Of-Knights is a Dictatorship alliance ruled over by The Dark Ones. The Dark-Ones are in a position for life, though The Dark-Ones can give up the position freely and will appoint a successor if they choose to do so. All Upper Council positions will be assigned by vote or, failing a successful vote, they will be assigned by The Dark-Ones from the list of candidates. The Upper council members have authority over their departments but will never make lone decisions on war.
The Dark-Ones - The leaders of the alliance have supreme powers in ALL alliance affairs but will seek advice of Upper Council members on most matters arising due to the Upper Council member’s specialization.
Marquis of Foreign Affairs (MoFA)- Will deal with all foreign matters including assigning diplomats to other alliances, accepting foreign diplomat’s applications, setting embassies for foreign diplomats, trying to ensure peace in situations where war is threatened and writing treaties that will be signed by the Dark-ones and his Upper Council if acceptable by all parties involved.
Marquis of Internal Affairs (MoIA)- Is in charge of internal matters such as: membership, recruiting, forum moderators and internal communications. But will not over see applications from foreign diplomats.
Marquis of Defence (MoD) – being the head of our military He/She has authority over military matters including: authorizing individual wars on single unaligned nations (but not aligned until speaking with MoFA and not alliance wide conflicts), and organizing Divisions, Companies, and Platoons, as well as anything else deemed proper for the MoD to control.
Marquis of the Treasury (MoT) – Is in charge of all banking, aid, and economic matters.
Ensuring any aid packages/chains are done in good order. Also will decide any amount to be paid back by a member wishing to leave who has received aid.
All Marquis may appoint Lords who will be their deputies, they may also appoint Knights to certain positions under them (for example diplomats, bankers etc)
Article IV
War
Black-Order-Of-Knights is not an aggressive alliance, but will attack if required to do so by a treaty being activated or in the case of an act of war being committed against them.
Nukes- no first strike will be made by the Black-Order-Of-Knights. Nuclear Rogues are viewed as traitors and will be disowned by this alliance and not protected under any condition by us.
Tech raiding is NOT permitted; we will NOT protect tech raiders.
Out of Game Spying is not allowed, and any members caught doing so will be ejected from the alliance and no protection shall be given to them, if the alliance they spied on doesn’t wish to attack them Black-Order-Of-Knights reserves the right to ZI them. Also if a foreign alliance is caught spying on Black-Order-Of-Knights it shall be viewed as a direct act of war and unless the alliance deems the act unlawful and ejects their member for ZI by Black-Order-Of-Knights. Aggressive action or threats made by other alliances or individual nations will be deemed acts of war.
Article V
Banking/aid
All nations are asked to give (if they are lager nations and have ample income) to others in Black-Order-Of-Knights for the advancement of the alliance, however it will be up to the Marquis Of The Treasury to set up: Aid Chains, Banker Nations, Trade Circles, and Tech Deals. As mentioned in Article I, if you wish you resign from the alliance you may be required to pay part or all of the aid back as decided by an official from the treasury department.
Article VI
Elections
Elections shall occur every three months for every position other than The Dark Ones. In the case of an empty office, elections will be held no less than two weeks after, and while the position is empty the The Dark Ones will be in charge of said position. An elected official may be removed from office for breaking the law of this Charter, or being inactive for 2 weeks without giving prior warning. The impeachment process consists with a majority vote of The Dark-Ones and the elected officials. In the event of a tie, the breaker will be a vote by the people of the Black-Order-Of-Knights, but only after all relevant information is given to the people
Article VII
Amendments
Amendments to this Charter will be subject to consideration if enough members should agree upon the proposal of said amendment. Then it shall be set to vote by the Upper Council, but final say will rest in the hands of The Dark-Ones. If said amendment is gone through previously mentioned process then it shall be applied to the Charter as soon as possible and enacted immediately upon insertion.
Article VIII
Government
Government officials have a place of honour at Black-Order-Of-Knights. Government officials make everything work smoothly and they are role models for new players. Being so it is up to the elected government officials to portray the alliance in its best light and to guide members to be the best they can be, both in Cyber Nations and real life. That said being a government official is a privilege and if you abuse your power you shall be removed from office, and possibly the alliance.
