Re: OT: Cyber Nation
Ok, IF I create a secondary alliance, with a charter laying out rules on when/how/if to attack, and codifying the boosting scheme below, and recruiting guidelines, etc., while still being strongly affiliated with Wombat Protectorate, how many would be interested in joining? My thinking right now would be attack only if someone in the secondary alliance is attacked first, or the nation is in an inactive alliance or unaligned and has not signed on in a week. Anyone involved in boosting cannot be involved in wars for the 10 days of the boosting process plus the two days immediately before (the boostee of course has this enforced by being in peace mode up until the very end).
My main concern in doing this is the threat that some of the more aggressive members of the alliance pose to my more conservative style of play. You all may think it's fine, but I know what I would do if I was in the leadership of one of the huge alliances and raids like Wilhelmia's on a nation that just received a $3,000,000 aid package (either directly or indirectly) annoyed me enough:
1) I would demand full reparations for the raided nation, equal to the amount of cash and tech stolen and soldiers killed, plus 2x the cost for the raided nation to buy back land, infrastructure, and tanks lost
2) When the raider says "Tough luck, I already spent it", and the raider is in an alliance, I would demand that the leadership of that alliance find a way to make equivalent reparations; it would include a suggestion that the reparations be obtained by raiding the rogue nation
3) If that demand is denied (or it's an unaligned nation), then I would take out the reparations manually by having "soldier" nations attack the rogue nation and random nations in the alliance within the strength range. The attacks will stop when either the alliance manages to pay the original reparations demands or the wars expire in a week. I would have the random nations attacked to encourage the alliance to keep members in line. If you want to be a rogue attacking whomever you feel like, then play the Tournament Edition.
