Adaptive Manipulator Posted April 9, 2009 Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 (edited) That is rather harsh, Col. Mosby. I may have an idea why you won't allow nuclear nations to join your alliance but restricting a nation because of its resources? Would you explain that? While I cannot speak for the curt Colonel , one of the long-term goals in our alliance is to be self-sufficient regarding trades, meaning we want our trades to be covered by internal trade circles. Of course, we are not the only alliance with that goal, and in practice it does not work out all that well, in particular for a smaller alliance like ours. That's why it is a (very) long-term goal, an ideal, and we do have plenty of outside trades. Still, given that we are against nuclear weapons, members with native uranium would not fit in well with our goal of trade self-sufficiency. Rather than bringing in some badly needed Construction-relevant or population-boosting resource, one such member would instead require five other members to accept uranium as a connected resource. So, we prevent that situation by not inviting such nations. I don't really see this as much of a problem, I don't think an alliance has the duty to invite any and all nations. And it's not like unaligned nations do not have enough invitations to choose from, so I doubt there are people sitting frustrated that we do not invite them. That being said, I don't know how strict we would be if such a nation were to come to use and desperately apply for membership. So far this has not happened, though.

WorkingClassRuler Posted April 9, 2009 Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 (edited) Wasn't there that one short period in the summer of 07? There was a brief trial program yes, but we never changed policies and the rules had more hoops to jump through than a Siegfried and Roy show. I believe one had to have a certain Efficiency level on their nation to even begin to apply to be considered to raid a Gov approved target. Can't imagine why it didn't work.

Col John S Mosby Posted April 9, 2009 Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 We also prohibit the possession of nuclear weapons and will not invite a nation that has Uranium as a native resource to join us. Isn't that a bit extreme? A nation does not have a whole lot of choice in what resources they happen to be born with. How does having uranium as a resource make you a nuclear menace??? There are perfectly peaceful applications for that resource too. Well, we ARE extreme. Our organization is an elite military unit and membership is by invitation only. We expect our members to be well-disciplined and to follow our guidelines in nation building and growth. :jihad: There are several things we look for when considering a prospective member, native resources being one of them. We will also not invite nations to join us that have resources that are not useful for a military build, so we will not likely invite anyone who has Furs or Wine either.

Londo Mollari Posted April 10, 2009 Report Share Posted April 10, 2009 Athens raids the unaligned, as well as any alliance with 10 members or fewer that doesn't have a protectorate. No aligned nation under 10k NS may be raided, and aligned nations may only be attacked by one Athens member each. The unaligned are fair game for 3v1 and being raided under 10k NS. A peace offer is always sent after 2 ground attacks only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Col John S Mosby Posted April 10, 2009 Report Share Posted April 10, 2009 ...No aligned nation under 10k NS may be raided, and aligned nations may only be attacked by one Athens member each...Could you clarify that? It seems that you're saying that any aligned nation over 10,000 nation strength is fair game. Even if you meant to say under that size, attacking an aligned nation of any strength range risks an alliance war. Any alliance worth its salt will protect all of its members no matter what size. The attacked nation certainly shouldn't be expected to abide by some kind of looters' chivalry that the victim should show self-restraint just because the aggressor "only" used ground attacks. We sure as hell wouldn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
