All Member Should Read This

Ikariam Union Military:

When someone calls for assistance against an UNFAIR attack, members NEED to help. Assistance by blockading of ports, pillaging of towns, and intelligence gathering are necessary for successful destruction of opponent plans. This means that each member has to do all three (joking, do just one! and send a circular message) but some sort of support is required.

An outsider (non-Ikariam Union) attacker has a right to attack any member of Ikariam Union , since this is basically a war-game. However, if the Ikariam Union member asks for help, it will be provided and the attacker WILL regret if he disregards any warnings.

Trade Co-operation:

Trade amongst ourselves if possible.

If members need help with lumber or luxury goods, request so in an alliance message. If you can help the member, do so, but post that you have done so in an alliance message to prevent overloading.

Diplomat Statement:

This alliance will be the strongest alliance in iota, hopefully! We will do our best, using all methods possible to advance. If we need to use tactical assassins who will take others out, so be it. Oops, this is a diplomatic message, not the statement from the Leader

Okay, we will use all diplomatic means possible to maintain peace (read, ask others to surrender, else...). Then, the General will take over!

Guiding Principle:

Ikariam Union exists to help promote growth in our members through mutual cooperation. Additionally, the alliance exists to defend her members against unwarranted aggression. The members in turn are also expected to protect the alliance from unwarranted aggression.

You must think before you act, and be willing to accept the consequences of your actions
