Wow. Regional numbers are currently the lowest they've been in well over 4 years (Region History dates it to the 17th of March, 2016), with only 10 active nations.

I should run a recruitment campaign, but I just don't have the time right now...

The Mad King of Hell of The Stalker

Nuke Day is here once again friends! We won last year and plan to do it again!

Count down is here: page=news/2020/09/22/index.html

I encourage pinning the Factbook to your WFE!


“We impose order on the chaos of faction evolution. You exist because we allow it, and you will end because we demand it.”
- The Stalker when asked the purpose of the Horsemen of the Apocalypse.

The non-aggression pact, the shameless megafaction, the backroom agreement, these are the tools of cowards and weaklings. True glory rests in the hands of those who succeed on their own merits. Strength is the only currency accepted by The Atom, and only the strong will prosper on N-Day. The Horsemen of the Apocalypse are the greatest faction in N-Day history, that is a simple fact, the highest score ever, the highest faction population ever, the most nukes ever, the most shields ever, the only faction to ever finish at #1 with no radiation, our accolades are limitless, our abilities are peerless. You all know who we are, and you know what we're about. If you wish to free yourself from the shackles placed upon you by bickering cowards and sycophants then seek us out. The ability to choose what is destroyed, when, and in what manner is the exclusive prerogative of the powerful, following the weak will only lead to you being counted among the vanquished.

RP aside, we dominated last N-day, claiming the top 10 faction ranks in the name of the Apocalypse, and we're going to win again this time even if it requires us to actually try a little. If you want to be in the #1 faction then join us, accept no substitutes.

If you want to flex on all the other nerds that play this game join our Discord now and join our faction.

Join the Horsemen HERE!

LinkAnd I heard as it were the noise of thunder, One of the four beasts saying come and see and I saw, and behold...

The Count Down: page=news

It's time my friends, The Horsemen of the Apocalypse ride once again.

Hell, Underworld, The Order of the Grey Wardens, Lily, Glass Gallows, Middle Earth, Hippy Haven, St Abbaddon, and bringers of the apocalypse ride again!

For those who haven't ridden with us before and for those of us in need of a refresher please read over the NS News dispatch here; page=dispatch/id=874170

Simple Version.
1. Join faction to start building production
2. Spend Production on missiles or shields
3. Use missile to strike foes for points, use shields to stop incoming missiles
4. Read ^ dispatch, V read the Plan.
5. Be on the Discord! >>> LinkHERE! <<<

The Plan
We show no mercy. Join us and you will be free to attack whomever you wish, we have only targets and make no non-aggression pacts.

Join us on the discord for organization hits, or pick your own targets on your own.

Stick to your specialty, if you're military build nukes, if you're strategic build shields. If you're economic do whatever you please. Whatever your specialization be ready to fight at the start, who knows how many losers from last year will try and fail to get revenge on us early.

Hail to the Riders of the Apocalypse, for we are the leaders of the Horsemen, follow us into oblivion and glory.

Like last time we work from the shadows again. We don't start fights or hit randomly, we won't draw blood, we will slaughter them all at once. We will focus on small or inactive groups. We will avoid taking strikes and create truces.

Best way to avoid becoming a repeated target will be to keep our defense strong, if they can't land a strike on us, and we don't attack them, they will move on. While we'll focus on earning points.

I wanna encourage folks to have a 40% offense, 60% defense slant on production. Particularly at the start of the game and while people are more active. At the start we will see a lot of attacks coming in from everywhere, so have your defenses ready. Remember it is better to stop the first attack to discourage future attacks, strikes only get easier later on.

All of this will be organized through our discord.

Altmoras is the Lord of War, leader of the Horsemen, follow his orders.

FAQ
How many nations to use?

Short answer, as many as you can manage, and in relationship to the time you plan to put in.

Everyone should use at least one nation, if you plan to put in the time and effort use a few more. Remember you build resource/"production" only when the nation is in the Faction. Allowing you to buy shields and missiles, more nations means more you can build up, have one nation just for defense, one for missiles, etc.

However more nations also means more targets for our foes to target! So you gotta pull the weight of the nations you use. Lots of inactive targets is bad, what we want is the right amount of active folks making best use of the max production they can handle.

Does this affect my nations stats??

No! There are no long term repercussions.

History of the Horsemen
N-Day I: We made it into 30th for top strike, our offense was on point. However we didn't have nearly enough defense, we also attacked indiscriminately, started fights, and got mass attacked by everyone in return.
Member Regions: Hell, Underworld, Glass Gallows, Middle Earth, Hippy Haven, and bringers of the apocalypse.

N-Day II: We made it into 12th place with 12,606 strikes, and only taking 5,827 hits.
Member Regions: Hell, Underworld, Glass Gallows, Middle Earth, Hippy Haven, and bringers of the apocalypse.

N-Day III: We rocked the house taking 2nd place thanks to the tireless work of Altmoras, with 67,539 strikes, and only taking a mere 39 hits.
Member Regions: Hell, Underworld, Glass Gallows, Middle Earth, Hippy Haven, Citadel of Ricks, and bringers of the apocalypse.

N-Day IV: We won. We came in 1st. 332,564 strikes and not a single hit landed on us. We are the Kings of the Apocalypse!! Great work to all involved, special thanks to organizer and leader of the Horsemen Altmoras!
Member Regions: Hell, Underworld, Glass Gallows, Middle Earth, Hippy Haven, Citadel of Ricks, The Order of the Grey Wardens, Lily, St Abbaddon, and bringers of the apocalypse.

N-Day V: We took on all of NationStates. For the first 13 glorious hours of N day we rage war on all of NS. No alliances and no mercy was shown, pure slaughter and destruction followed. Eventually in the 13th hour, all of NS united against the Horsemen and finally overwhelmed us nuking us into oblivion. Ending with a score of -643,469. The remaining faction fed on our faction's corpse.
Member Regions: Hell, Underworld, Glass Gallows, Middle Earth, Hippy Haven, The Order of the Grey Wardens, Lily, St Abbaddon, and bringers of the apocalypse.

N-Day VI: We joined with the Crabs and became Crabs of the Apocalypse! Two of the most powerful factions joined as one left no chance for anyone else. First 12hours Crabs of the Apocalypse had a non-aggression pact with The Potato Alliance, and the two removed weaker factions of the board. Upon ending the non-aggression pact, TPA was destroyed, and the rest of NS shortly followed. Crabs of the Apocalypse dominated so completely all ten of top faction spots were claimed in the Crabs of the Apocalypse. Final score was an absurd 1,287,974.
Member Regions: Hell, Underworld, The West Pacific, The Pacific, Balder, United Kingdom, The Great North, The Communist Bloc, Europeia, The Leftist Assembly, The Land of Kings and Emperors, The Internationale, The Social Liberal Union, The Sasquatch Republic, Glass Gallows, Middle Earth, Hippy Haven, The Order of the Grey Wardens, Lily, St Abbaddon, and bringers of the apocalypse.
N-Day 6 News Report

N-Day VII: Horsemen of the Apocalypse returned in classic form. Naturally claiming first once more with score of 444,575.
Member Regions: Hell, Underworld, Middle Earth, Hippy Haven, The Order of the Grey Wardens, Lily, Blackstar, St Abbaddon, and bringers of the apocalypse.
N-Day 7 News Report

N-Day VIII: Horsemen of the Apocalypse once again claim the crown. Scoring a record breaking 1,652,905 score. Making the 4th N-day we’ve won, more than any other faction. First several hours the major factions built up farming smaller faction, until Potato Alliance and Cosmic Corsairs attacked Anime Nations Against Liberals (ANAL). Once the dust settled, Horsemen came in and cleaned house on Potato Alliance. ANAL and Cosmic Corsairs would continue to fist fight throughout the event. Over the course of the event the Horsemen would rain hellfire upon the remaining factions, claiming the top three positions, and largely only factions that had their nations leave the faction after scoring would remain positive.
Member Regions: Hell, Underworld, Middle Earth, Hippy Haven, The Order of the Grey Wardens, Lily, St Abbaddon, Atlantis, and bringers of the apocalypse.
N-Day 8 News Report

N-Day IX: Similar to N-day 5, we took on all of NationStates, only to eventually be overrun and destroyed. After the Horsemen were knocked out, did the other factions kill each other to declare themselves the new kings of the apocalypse? No, they kept the peace that the death of the Horsemen brought, it will go down as one of the most peaceful N-days on record. With Kingly Heathens Asserting Neighborliness claiming king victor.
Member Regions: Hell, Underworld, Middle Earth, Hippy Haven, The Order of the Grey Wardens, Lily, St Abbaddon, Atlantis, Lazarus, and bringers of the apocalypse.
N-Day 9 News Report

N-Day X: Horsemen join up with Khan to become Kingly Horsemen Asserting Neighborliness!!
Member regions:: Hell (& Company), Augustin Alliance, FOCUS, Lone Wolves United, United Regions Alliance, The Pacific, The West Pacific, and bringers of the apocalypse.


And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts
And I looked and behold, a pale horse
And his name that sat on him was Death
And Hell followed with him.

What does the userscript do?

The Two-Stack Pushdown Automata of SherpDaWerp

It was just a quick little embassy management tool - vanilla site only lets you request embassies from the region you're in, and if you're an RO in another region it gets painful to manage.

We've dropped to #46 since then, but that's still a great result. Props to you for clearing the region solo!

Thank you! I got so tired, I think we should just embrace zombies next time 'round. The cure takes ridiculously long to research (at the end of Z-Day, Mk III missiles weren't even ready with half the region working on the cure, which means the percentage of nations researching it doesn't affect research efficacy) and implement compared to spamming hordes. I must also admit that I screwed up in locking the region down. Had I left it open, we might've got some new nations to join and, perhaps, stick around after the event. I'm rather disappointed with our waning numbers, and I still haven't had the time to put a recruitment campaign in place.

I got a pack of cards, all of 5 which were Season One O_o

Update: it really seems like the pack generator is broken. Just got another pack, where all 5 cards were from Season One. Shouldn't there be a random chance to get Season One cards as opposed to Season One packs? Also, both times it happened with the last pack to be "unpacked".

SherpDaWerp, congratulations on being the best nation in Glass Gallows. 176th best in the world is a damn good result as well!

I was ~22nd at one point, only a few hours before the close - but I'll still take <200th in a heartbeat!

It's a shame that the event's random element played so much of a factor, but it was still an interesting April Fools' for the year.

Wow, that's amazing! I hadn't noticed, my apologies.

I agree, it was interesting. And a very good change from the usual clicking with time-outs... I'm really tired of events like Z-Day, where it's all about not leaving the monitor, acquiring carpal tunnel syndrome and creating as many puppets as one can. It was nice to finally have something laid-back. I wish more events were like this.

You would have to have been actively watching my rankings to notice, it only lasted maybe half an hour tops before I started sinking again.

[v] mentioned that one of the ideas behind this event was to not advantage large puppet-farm owners, and I'm glad that was the case. It was much better.

With the new admin team setup sounds like they may be making changes/adding features to the game.

I have propose the following idea if folks wanna voice some support/input on it.

viewtopic.php?f=15&t=506892

Basically a means for founderless regions like Hell to get a founder of sorts appointed, "Security Council proposal type could be targeted at a nation and a region at the same time, and would appoint the nation as Custodian of the region, giving it access to regional controls."
