Embassies with the United Facists?
Ah...

As a train pulls into the Glass Gallows train station, an announcement is made.

*Now arriving at Glass Gallows station on Track 1, is The Featured Region Express to [Insert next featured region.] The train conductor Kai would also like to congratulate this region on being featured. Please stand back from the yellow line and please watch the gap while boarding the train.*

When entering the station, the train gives a horn show, which sounds like someone is saying, ''Congrats on being featured.''

The train stops at the platform, and opens its doors, waiting until the next region is featured to depart from the Glass Gallows station to the next station.

Region Score (What Class would I let you sit in on the train, based on):

Wouldn't even let on the train: Has to be a horrible region, for example, a fascist region, a homophobic region, racist region etc.

Coach Class: Dead Region, or I don't like the region (somewhat), but can tolerate them on the train.

Premium Coach Class: Semi-Dead Region, or I like the region.

Business Class: I really like this region.

First Class: I love this region so much, that if I weren't congratulating featured regions, I would most likely reside in that region, or make it my permanent region.

Mournivalia, can you please set me as your successor, just in case the same happens to you? Just to make sure we don't become founderless, since we don't even have a WA delegate anymore.

Have fun nation=thorn53!

Always ride with the Horsemen when the Apocalypse rolls into town!

We have lapsed my friends, after a long and proud tradition of N-Day participation with our friends in region=hell, we have fallen by the wayside in peaceful ignominy. Next event we will have to resaddle the steeds of chaos and ride forth!


“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.

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.

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.

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 didn't run fully this N-Day instead some Horsemen joined up with Khan to become Kingly Horsemen Asserting Neighborliness!! Alas all of NS tag-teamed Khan and eventually overran us. Leaving NS with another peaceful N-day as major factions choice to farm rather than total victory.

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.
