Issue #1: A Warring Server
The First Post
[September 23rd, 2021]
Welcome to the very first Privateer Post of this newsletter chain! There is a lot going on in the world of PMC Politics right now, so it's now or never to document it!
Ongoing Wars
According to recent posts found in #playernews of the Alliance Discord, the following conflicts are in full swing:
1. Atalantaa's Meme War vs. BE
As an iconic server icon, the city of London has been cherished by many veterans since its creation in the early days of the server. However, since its close proximity to Spawn, the city has been abandoned without residence to avoid consistent raids by the server's PvPers. In an attempt to make the city livable again, the British Government, primarily RatRaceRobot, have launched the London Defense Project, aimed at "making London economically viable and livable again. We plan this through bringing back playerbase shops (because of London's convenient location) protected by a wall (used to filter out almost all raiders) and a redstone defense mechanism (used to remove any trespassers inside the wall)," according to RatRace.
As an ex-BE leader, Atalantaa has taken it upon herself to launch an anti-wall campaign, stating that the structure is ugly and a scar on a server icon. Since then, many have backed these claims, stating the wall is unnecessary because of the use of grappling hooks, levitation potions, ships and player-launching mortars. The argument states that the empire has plenty of cities they can occupy much safer, and it has sparked outrage among the community.
Since the backlash, BE leadership has created a survey to assess the playerbase’s opinion on the wall, and is requesting suggestions for a better way to protect the iconic capital. Access the survey here: [1]
In the #FORTHEWALL movement, the British Empire has received increasing backlash due to the controversial wall built around their capital city of London. Due to this, Costa Nostra (CSN) has declared war on BE, stating “CSN has decided to join the wall cause and declared war on BE until the wall is removed. #FORTHEWALL”
In the wake of this conflict, an unlikely multi-alliance has formed to fight the British Empire in this war: VOID, CSN, WOO and SIN.
As of the writing of this article, there have been multiple battles with victories and losses on both fronts, CSN and Allies claiming successful raids on BE’s Trapbases, and BE countering with screenshots of their take resulting in another battle with little information on where it took place.
Another CSN conflict has been ongoing as Costa Nostra has conducted multiple raids again the Eternal Sith Empire (ESE). CSN claims the successful assassination of Emperor Kha0ticx. InX and raid of their construction sites, as well as killings on multiple other ESE citizens, including TobySF.
Border Conflicts
1. Valyrian Freehold (VAL) v. Eternal Sith Empire (ESE)
While not a war, reports have come in that the Valyrian Freehold has issued complaints against their neighbors, the Eternal Sith Empire, after Valyrians noticed a blockade on a cove connecting to both empires, making ship travel to and from port to fort difficult. While this issue was resolved peacefully, another meeting is underway between the Queen of the Freehold CreatingWithKass and the Shadow of the Void, Ae0n about border disputes. ESE member Folsky has settled within decided on Valyrian territory, and as of writing this, has yet to leave the area. Tensions are stable for now as VAL’s leader waits on response from ESE. Rumor also has it that there will be a mountain range/wall created along the VAL/ESE border so this can be avoided in the future.
