The Northern Coalition is not just Aeternum members, so I will extend the welcome to you on behalf of Aragon and the UnNamed Company. We look forward to playing with you as well.
You have been included!

When the population grows and the map begins to shrink,
When resources dwindle and neighbors grow less neighborly,
When the reality of an open-world PvP game finally hits home,
The strength and experience of your friends will make all the difference.
The Northern Coalition is here for you.

The King of the Kind of North invites you to look at our glorious non-aggression pact and consider the benefits applying could give. Those pesky bandits from Aragon always stealing your stuff? The scary necromancers of Golgotha about to crash down on you? Those annoying anarchists from Freevale constantly picketing your crafters for being the “1%”? Not when you are part of the Northern Coalition!
Join now, while stocks last!
And hopefully more in the future {:

Since we're on the topic of beer (a perennial favorite), I'm drinking an amazing barleywine (from a bottle, natch) that is clocking in at 13.2%. As I'm most of the way through the bottle, I'm obviously drunk.
That said, *takes another drink*, how aggressive (read a$$hole-ish) is the rampaging Godzilla Golgatha going to be with its evil plans to attack local non-signators to to this non-aggression pact?

They are going to be as surgical as a scalpel. What is a threat to them, they'll take out with brutal force, but *only* what they aimed for. Don't want Golgotha to come after you? Don't piss em off. Want them to be friendly? Be nice, set up trade agreements, be friendly yourself. Golgothan's are people of their word.
Yeah, it's people like the UNC and Freevale that y'gotta be careful around. Lawful guys are as surgical as a scalpel. Chaotic guys, well, who needs a scalpel when I have my FISTS
Of course, UNC will probably be a bummer and use a sword or something. Wusses.

Golgotha will compete competitively. If you imagine Golgotha as a raging Godzilla, then I believe you fail to understand what it means to be Lawful Evil.
Lawful evil merely means justifying your aggression. See US foreign policy of the Bush administration. Or colonial European nations in the 17th, 18th & 19th centuries.
Thankfully, I suspect the game mechanics will discourage colonial aspirations since maintaining satellite settlements sounds like a spurious strategy.

Please, no real world politics.

I don't buy beer by the can? Good beer is bottled :pFour for you, two for a guest? Four for now, two for later?Why on earth would you buy beer in anything less than a 24 pack?
Uhm... If it's not bottles, it's not really a two-four
24 cans is a flat.

This is a Non-Aggression Pact.
There will be no attacking of other members or territories with two exceptions.
1)An NC member is guarding a war targets caravan. In this case, anything goes.
2)Planned friendly combat.
That is all.
Again, this is a full Non-Aggression Pact.

Freevale signed on to The Northern Coalition NAP in good faith and we intend to uphold our obligations. NC signatories dropping SAD on NC signatories (or random hostility) is ill advised and not supported by Freevale's direction or our commitment to The NC NAP. Come EE, I am sure we have more terms / conditions / corner cases to discuss. For now, however, the terms are pretty clear.

I can visualise a gentlemanly greeting between the NC caravan guard and the NC bandit:
"Oh, fancy meeting you here!"
Then they both wander off, to the sidelines, taking both of themselves out of the fight, and watching how it plays out.
Similar to how Members of Parliament have a buddy system; they know they're going to vote on opposite sides of an issue, cancelling each other out, so they agree with their opposite number, not to waste each other's time, and to go to the pub instead.
