Are Alliances considered normal in MW, unless stated otherwise?
I have 55,51, and 57, 3 fams, set up on me.
I understand I cleared around my perimeter, so they push back.
Here though with 55 and 51- is an Alliance action on my system. It is a coordinated strike by 2 fams on R2D2 in one of my systems:

Cease Fire- I will nap as is T276

@Swagga

All this talking man… You started to hit my spread… and I retaliate.
And yes IA is all that’s left in IC.

It’s not IA, it’s UA.

All I wanted to know is if Alliances are allowed in MW, unless stated otherwise.
I’m not concerned with the ethics of top fams 55,and 51. I just want to be able to ally like them if it’s allowed.

@CMV I’ve never fought you before. I don’t recognize you either. And I’m not surprised it takes 2 fams or more to try to keep me in check. I am the only attacker- once again, in a semi-active random fam. So you can brag all you want- It doesn’t mean much to me. If it was an equal fight then you might have something to be proud of.

@CMV lol Airwing I’ve been kicking your bum arse for the last 7 months. where’s your buddy PickleArmy? He should have told you better. Just keep wasting your time vs me with laser traps and you’ll learn- maybe.

yes allies are allowed in MW. Also you attacked us both first and provoked the entire thing. Consider the possible outcomes before making a decision like that. I would have left you and your fam alone completely (for now anyways :P). So don’t act like Mr Innocent got attacked for no reason lol.

And as for my Alliance question I’m good to go thanks:

Alliances are allowed

So thats why it’s UA (unofficial alliance) and not IA (illegal alliance), as it’s not illegal

Goes for all galaxies, all rounds to come

Allowed, unless stated otherwise

coool- some peeps were under the impression there were no alliances allowed"

we are 4 weeks into the round and expo phase is still going strong, and will for the next week aswell… :stuck_out_tongue:

imo adjustments are sorely needed…

Specifics are helpful. :slight_smile:

What kinds of adjustments? Mid-round or for next round? What would they solve? Would they risk any specific side effects?

Adjustments can always be made, but “adjustments” is vague. What would you like to see, and why?

in a 6 week round, expo phase to last 5/6 weeks… is removing the need for conflict, as everyone can explore for planets untill the end.

so either map or expo ship limit need to be adjusted to shrink down the expo phase period.

You can explore and attack at the same time tho, i think having such a large map makes so many possibilities and less need for fams to fully kill each other off.
Only issue with this round is only two family’s actually did drafts and con jumps/planning everyone else winged it and had fun.
There is no issue with that being done what so ever just limits the top fams unless they attack much weaker targets.

I think maybe 4 man fams with this size of a galaxy and no drafts completely random fams would be the way to go until player count is back up.

4 man fams is just so small though. It puts so much pressure on each player to do so much. I probably wouldn’t consider playing unless fam size was at least 5.

Alternatively, number of systems and map size could be lowered some to make sure expo phase ends well before eor.
