Soldiers Of The Apocalypse Retal Policy

Policy Introduction

Our retal policy illustrates what should be done in the event that you are hit. We DO NOT recognize land:land retals as a valid method for retals, for any reason. Furthermore, we will not recognize any other alliance's retal policy regarding land:land retals.

Retal Window

• 24 Hours for untagged countries that tagged up after being grabbed.
• 48 Hours for all single grabs made by tagged countries.
• 72 Hours if there are 2 or more grabs made on the same country by the same country within 48 hours.
• 72 Hours if there are 2 or more grabs made on the same tag by the same country within 48 hours.
• 72 Hours if the attacking country is 3 deep into Diminished Returns for at least 24 Hours of the original 48 Hour window.

Retal Method

• 1:1 SS/PS for first hit inside of 48 hours.
• 2:1 SS/PS for second hit on same country by same country inside of 48 hours.
• 3:1 SS/PS for third hit on same country by same country inside of 48 hours.
• 4:1 SS/PS for fourth hit on same country by same country inside of 48 hours.
• Farming and/or Death for 5+ hits on same country by same country inside of 48 hours.

GS/BR/AB Attacks

• 1:3 SS/PS for first hit inside of 48 hours.
• 2:5 SS/PS for second hit inside of 48 hours
• 3:7 SS/PS for third hit inside of 48 hours.
• Farming and/or Death for 4+ hits on same country by same country inside of 48 hours.

Spy Ops & Missiles

• 1:3 SS/PS for first hit inside of 48 hours.
• 2:5 SS/PS for second hit inside of 48 hours.
• 3:7 SS/PS for third hit inside of 48 hours.
• Farming and/or Death for 4+ hits on same country by same country inside of 48 hours.

Retal On Retal Attacks

• Any country that has made a retal cannot be landgrabbed for 48 hours.
• Any country that landgrabbed us and was retalled cannot be landgrabbed for 48 hours.

Otherwise the landgrabs will be viewed as over-retalling and will be retalled according to standard escalating policies of 2:1, 3:2 etc.

Retals On Hits Made By Allies

We must follow the terms of the pacts. Nothing should be authorized without checking the pact and/or contacting the alliance's FAs.

If the alliance that landgrabbed us has a Retal Policy that benefits us more than our policy does, we will retal according to their policy 100% of the time.
