Pierce's Space Marines (PSM)

Welcome to our alliance!

Pierce's Space Marines were formed in tribute to a fallen comrade from the Real Earth. We fight on in his name, striving to bring order and honor to a cutthroat universe. We are open to new members who are eager to expand, willing to obey our guidelines, and able to lend a hand to struggling neighbors.

We occasionally sing battle songs, as well.

Therefore, we will not attack any commander that is in (!) mode. Unless, they are on the 'PSM hit list' or PSM is currently at war with their alliance. Generals and Colonels - may attack who they want when they want with out clearance. Majors - you are limited to any alliance that has less than 150 members. Captains - are limited to alliances with less than 50 members. Lieutenants – are limited to alliances that are smaller than PSM Midshipmen – are limited to inactives only. Treat them as actives and practice your skills. You may attack any inactive player, including our own, they are fair game with out permission. If you do attack an inactive PSM, you are to return the resources if they player returns. Once you attack someone, leave them alone for a couple days. Let them lick their wounds. Maybe even explain why you attacked. “Sorry, but you forgot to fleet save.” We had a few people join our alliance after they were attacked by us. Show civility, even to our enemies. Please use your heads when attacking active players. We don't need to, and sometimes can't, come rushing to your aid because you attacked someone you didn't do your homework on. Look around the area. Do they have a lot of alliance members around, do you have a lot of alliance members around. Is it a sure victory or are you just hoping for the best. They may turn on lower ranked PSM to revenge their lose. When asking for permission, you must provide the General you are asking the following information: 1. Your location and their location. 2. Their alliance name and size. 3. Why you want to attack them. 4. Any other pertinent info like members around you and them.

True warriors sing to remember the fallen. True warriors sing because chicks dig it. True warriors will already know the tune to this song: "How much is that Hades in the shipyard? The one with the round fiery hull. How much is that Hades in the shipyard? It looks like a doughnut from hell!"
