New Kingdoms

When unlocking new kingdoms, choose east. Some kingdoms/events are random. Don't be afraid to ask for resources, and no stealing RVs, only take them if they're open or is the player is in ruins and you have permission to take it.

Activity

Please maintain an orange, yellow, or green dot at all times. If you are a new member, an unexcused red dot will probably result in a kick. Members of higher level, activity in the chat, and rank will mostly be exempt from the red-dot rule, and only members with a strong relation to the deputies or other high ranking members will be exempt from the black dot. If you are going to be absent from the game for over 2 days in a row, please let an official know. The best way to notify is to send a mass message. Maintaining a yellow dot or green dot at all times will likely result in a promotion. If you maintain a green dot at all times, well, you've got a problem. If you don't know where a dot is seen or how to send a mass message, please visit the Activity and Messaging pages respectively.

Battle Reports

After a battle, always forward the report. Do not forward Nomad/Samurai/Berimond Invasion battle reports en mass to the whole alliance, and only forward them to a select amount of players if they want to see it. Daimyo battles can be forwarded, though. Only forward Bloodcrow/Foreign reports if they are your personal bests. In Berimond (different from Berimond Invasion), battle reports on watchtowers do not need to be forwarded. Never forward Robber Barons to the alliance, only to individuals for teaching purposes. All PvP battles, win or loss, attack or defense, must be forwarded.

Battle Rules

The target must be within 10 levels above or below you unless we are at war. 

The target must be further than 50 miles away from all your castles so that we have time to prepare if they retaliate. (recommended, but optional)

Do not hit an alliance or player more than once a week. This may provoke war

If you are doing the Shady Lady event, you must have permission from the target before you hit them.
