The following is what you can expect in retaliation for hits against any tag in the Lords family. By hitting Lords you agree to the terms set forth below. Ignorance of our policy is not an acceptable excuse. Not recognizing our policy is not an acceptable excuse.

We normally retal in a 48hr window. Intentionally putting your country into DR will result in a arbitrary extension of the retal window, farming and/or death of you and the country that put you into DR. Escalating rules apply when the same country or tag makes multiple hits on the same Lords country or Lords tag within a 24hr period. We do not cross retal, but have been known to cross kill.

1:1
2:1
3:1
4:1 Subject to death, minimum 150% L:L.

Harmful Spy Ops:
Subject to like retaliation, farming and/or death.

GS/BR/AB/Missiles:
Subject to like retaliation, farming and/or death.

ROR:
Don't do it. Most of Lords knows how to read (the news). As such we expect only news-literate individuals to attack us. Our FBI brethren may war us for discrimination against the unlearned but they have so far been silent on the issue. We will retal your ROR however we want.

Topfeeds:
You can topfeed us but you'll get retaled double our usual rate, two for the price of one! ..if you want to think positively about it. Hitting a country with 150% of your land will credit you with a topfeed. That's mighty generous of us, don't you think?

Untagged Countries:
If you're not a dick, we will probably just retal as stated above. We're usually not dicks but sometimes we get bored.

Any of the above can be negotiated if YOU contact us first about a situation. For instance: one of your members hits us a bunch of times - you contact us before we kill it and something might be able to be worked out. Otherwise, don't expect us to contact you. We'll just retal as stated above, whether it requires one grab or a kill.


Retals must be taken: in a 48 hour's time frame...

If you feel the need to disable our missiles after you've grabbed our countries, so that we don't missile you in retaliation, then we shall certainly feel the need to disable your country so that you don't have to fear our missles any more.
