I would like to start a conversation about the number of allies we have. I understand that they are good to have. But I think too many can be a problem (at least to raiders, while a blessing to turtles.) I believe this is a greater problem as you climb the higher ranks as the number of people you can attack gets smaller. Just some thoughts and would appreciate other people's thoughts. I think it would be best to have one really good ally who would actually get our back opposed to a number of alliances that are allies in name only.

also, do we in general have a policy of attacking members of an alliance, whose alliance is ranked higher than ours? I don't care to start any wars, (especially with a stronger alliance) but I was wondering what is the usual result from an isolated attack?

Raiding is ok as a whole if it is for profit and you can prove to the other alliance that it is profit, If it is for profit, it is the other persons fault because they left too much of a fleet or resources lying about.

Also, Wezer, we need to know where our allies stand if we go to war, I know that if we had attacked SYN that time that TIR would have sided with them so we need an alliance to stand by us unquestionably.

Ok, i will find out for you....

I believe Marines will help us if war called.
