Rules & FAQ
The real Alliance Rules, straight from leadership’s alliance mail — read this before you ask an officer something it already answers.
Alliance Rules
No Tile Hitting
Do NOT attack a resource tile that another player is already gathering from. This includes, as of right now: Lumberyards, Herb Gardens, and Grain Farms.
If someone is already gathering there, find another tile! If you accidentally hit someone’s tile, own it, apologize, and let an R4/R5 know if necessary.
No Hitting Tagged Players
Do not attack players who belong to another alliance, unless leadership has specifically authorized it. If a player has an alliance tag, leave them alone! We want to keep the peace and avoid unnecessary wars or retaliation against our alliance.
If you’re unsure whether something is allowed, ASK BEFORE ATTACKING. We’ll also try to provide and update a Notice of all the alliances we’ve ok’ed to be burned, as well as a KOS (kill on sight) list — check Announcements for the latest one.
Keep the Peace
Don’t start unnecessary fights with other alliances or players. If someone attacks you, provokes you, or starts an argument: DO NOT retaliate immediately!
Screenshot it and report it to an R4 or R5. We’ll decide together how it should be handled and give out the war cry to burn the sucker to oblivion if called for..
Kingdom / World Chat
Please remember that anything you say in Kingdom/World Chat can reflect on the whole alliance. Be respectful. If someone starts an argument with you, don’t give them the reaction they’re looking for.
Screenshot it and report it to leadership. We’d rather deal with problems privately than turn them into a kingdom-wide drama com.
Working Together
Territory & Cities
When we’re working towards alliance territory, cities, or other objectives, please don’t act alone unless you’ve been asked to. Major objectives should be coordinated through leadership so we don’t waste troops, stamina, or opportunities.
Rallies & Alliance Events
When we’re doing alliance events, rallies, or city/territory activities, please follow the instructions from R4/R5. If leadership asks you to join a rally, reinforce a city, hold a position, stop attacking, save troops, move/teleport, or wait for instructions — please follow the plan.
Sometimes we may ask people NOT to attack something even if it looks tempting — there’s usually a reason.
Help Each Other
If someone needs help, try to help where you can. Whether that’s reinforcing, joining rallies, helping with alliance activities, answering questions, sharing information, or giving someone advice.
We’re much stronger when we work together! The “whales” will have power only with their leveled sanctuary. We will have more power with our team!
Look After Your Troops
Don’t throw troops away unnecessarily. If you’re unsure whether you can win an attack, ask first. There’s absolutely no shame in asking someone stronger to help with an attack or joining someone else’s rally. We’re a team — use that to your advantage!
Communicate
If something goes wrong, come to leadership directly. You can speak to: Rae, Misty, Kezzaroo, Jenna, Rab, Vega, Juan, Ltx, Paws.
If you have a problem with another member, don’t let it turn into an argument between the whole alliance. Bring it to us and we’ll help sort it out.
Own Your Mistakes
Everyone is going to mess up, even leadership. If you accidentally attack the wrong tile, hit someone you shouldn’t, make a mistake during an event, etc., just own it and tell us. We would much rather hear: “I messed up, sorry, here’s what happened” than find out later from somebody else. Honesty will always go further than trying to hide a mistake.
Membership & Activity
How Ranks Work
Quick rundown on how R4/R5 handle ranks and membership so everyone knows what to expect!
R3 – Active. This is home base! If you’re active and participating normally, you’ll stay in R3.
R2 – On Leave. Real life happens! If you’re going to be away, just give an R4 or R5 a heads-up. We’ll park you safely in R2 until you tell us you’re back, then it’s straight back to R3.
R1 – Inactive / No Notice. R1 is our holding spot for members who seem to have wandered off into the wasteland without telling anyone. We’ll look at the whole picture!
How Removals Work
R1 does not mean an automatic kick. We’re not going to purge people just to have empty seats.
When we’re at 100/100 and have someone ready to join, we’ll make room. One in, one out. No one waiting at the door? No reason to clear a spot.
Our goal is simple: keep CTC full and active while recognizing that everyone occasionally has to disappear into the real world. Just keep officers in the loop!
Donate to Alliance Research
Please make sure we are donating to our alliance research every day! Doing this helps you, as well as the whole Alliance, with things such as: your might, gathering speed and output, research/building speed and lowering cost, training speed and resource looting load, and crafting gear speed and cost.
Plus a whole lot more! Let’s help each other out and level these things together!
Culture
Celebrate the Little Wins
Not everything has to be about being the strongest alliance or player.. Celebrate: your first big win, a new level, a successful rally, someone getting a new hero, a great event score, taking a new city, getting stronger.
Celebrate each other’s progress! Every account started from zero.
Have Each Other’s Backs
If one of our members is in trouble, don’t immediately jump into a fight! Tell leadership first so we can understand what’s happening and decide the best way to handle it. But equally, we’re an alliance for a reason. We look after our own!
Most Importantly…
I know this is a long winded message but… HAVE FUN. This is a game after all. We’re here to build something together, make friends, get stronger, and hopefully have a ridiculous amount of fun along the way.
There will be mistakes. There will be disagreements. There will probably (most defiantly) be chaos. But let’s deal with it together.
Be kind. Be respectful. Communicate. Have each other’s backs. Own your mistakes. Celebrate the wins. And most importantly — ALWAYS HAVE FUN!
Welcome to the new era of the alliance. Let’s make it a good one.

FAQ
How is activity tracked?
Leadership records member roster, kills, and weekly donations from in-game rankings each week. See the Activity Dashboard for the alliance-wide numbers.
What happens if I’m flagged for inactivity?
R1 is not an automatic kick. An officer will look at the whole picture, and removals only happen one-in-one-out when someone’s waiting to join and the roster is full.
Where do I submit art or poetry?
Drop it in the Discord and an officer will get it added to the Gallery or Poetry Corner.
Who do I talk to about a problem?
Any R4/R5 officer: Rae, Misty, Kezzaroo, Jenna, Rab, Vega, Juan, Ltx, or Paws.
