Lord Draculea

When I joined FTW, there was Canik, the Mad King. If I ever did something good, I owe it to him. I was privileged to serve during his reign and we couldn't have asked for a better leader and friend. And there was DLS, whom I've seen rising. May he lead lead us through good and bad, to a future of peace and prosperity! Long live the King! Hail FTW!

Congrats!

Ave Legion!

This pixelated world is not so dead as it may seem... Some alliances are even quite active. But the landscape has changed, that was expected.

If you're planning to be an active nation then you should definitely consider joining an alliance where you can quickly find a trade circle to join, and where you can instantly fill your foreign aid slots at the rate of $9mil. for 100 tech. The Freehold of the Wolves is doing its best to provide those benefits to their members, and more. Visit our discord today and see for yourself! https://discord.gg/dE8GDx6

I don't play TE because it's silly and misconstrued. E.g. alliances get points if their nations keep deleting and rerolling. It's a waste of time and energy, while the prizes are won by the same gangs who already know all the dirty tricks, over and over again.

Seems like a good question for SirWilliam. 😂 I have better things to do.

I see. In my view, a tech trading rate that would be greater than 9/100 comes with a set of problems, such as the speed of tech transfers, and we don't go there. What we do though is endow our tech trading system with additional functionalities, such as cash or tech loans (e.g. a player gets a lump amount of cash or tech in advance, that he can later pay back in tech or in cash), or cash or tech bonuses, that we can grant to selected participants, based on pre-established criteria. A grantee of such a facility then uses it to buy certain key wonders, or to make an infra jump, assuming they are qualified for it. So yes, our system allows funding beyond the mere tech trading, but it is only available when certain conditions are met by some participants, rather than randomly and indiscriminately.

It is, under certain circumstances, on a case by case basis. Thanks for mentioning us!

Indeed, our automated tech trading system is based on the universal 9/100 rate for all participants, with or without the Federal Aid Commission. Those not owning the FAC yet have the difference from $6m to $9m for each 100 tech credited to their account (where it is transformed in incoming cash in subsequent transactions), until they get the FAC.

SirWilliams, as your text comprehension skills seem to be somewhat lacking (why am I not surprised), let me try once more: this isn't about Terry Howard, I've never had the pleasure to meet the guy, and I'm not trying to convey any message to him specifically. Like I said, I'm merely using this thread as a pretext to make a statement which I believe some new players might find useful. As long as the thread is not locked, I have the right to post here, and you Sir are in no position to tell me (or any user for that matter) where to make a post or when to quit posting. To any other new player who might read this: if you're planning to be an active nation, then you should definitely consider joining an alliance (like e.g. mine) where you can quickly find a trade circle to join, and where you can instantly fill your foreign aid slots at the most competitive tech trading rate of $9mil. for 100 tech. Focus on the essentials, and don't let trolls divert your attention away from your main objectives!

This is not about Terry Howard. My above post is an open invitation to any ruler of a new nation having certain expectations from the alliance they might join.

As lilweirdward said, the Freehold of the Wolves and the Christian Coalition of Countries are working together to provide those benefits to their members.

Life is better with such friends! Hail CCC! Hail FTW! o7
