• Colonies earn Cogs through building taxes. Maintenance costs auto-deduct.
• Tax income stops once you hit the cap. Spend, raid, or collect tribute to keep growth flowing.
• Staff can freeze a colony’s taxes as a penalty or war outcome.

• Team size rule: sides can differ by at most one player when war begins.
• Lives: each fighter starts with a set number of lives. Lose them all = spectator until war ends.
• Guards: count as lives in scoring.
• Disconnects: you keep your slot, war keeps going.
• War: block breaking/placing allowed in enemy colonies.
• Raid: only combat, blocks stay protected.
• Raids steal tax revenue for a limited time. Cooldowns prevent spam.

• Declare war: /wnt wagewar “<colonyName>”
• Join prompt: /wnt joinwar or opt out.
• If in both teams:

/wnt choosewarside attacker or /wnt choosewarside defender

• Sue for peace:
  • White peace: /wnt peace whitepeace
  • Reparations: /wnt peace reparations <amount>
• Claim stolen/defense rewards: /wnt claimtax

• Total Victory: enemies lose all lives.
• Strategic Victory: time runs out, score decided by lives + guards.
• Stalemate: near tie, with light penalties.
• Vassalization: losers can be forced into tribute.

• Vassals pay part of their tax income to the overlord colony.
• Commands:
  • Offer: /wnt vassalize <percent> “<colony>”
  • Accept: /wnt vassalaccept <colonyId>
  • Decline: /wnt vassaldecline <colonyId>
  • Revoke: /wnt revoke <player>
  • List: /wnt vassals
• Tribute shows up in your tax report.

• Reports show:
  • Green = revenue
  • Red = maintenance
  • Blue = bonuses
  • Yellow = warnings
• Happiness affects taxes: happy colonies earn more, unhappy colonies earn less.
• Inactive leaders = taxes pause automatically.

• Too many hostile mobs inside borders can trigger a raid.
• Walls, patrols, and recruits reduce the risk.

• Guards gain Resistance during raids/wars. Buff ends afterward.

• What do I gain from raiding?

Cogs from enemy tax pools, and you stall their income.

• Do I lose gear?

War: your last life inventory is safe.

• How do I earn from defending?

Kill attackers to earn a cut, then run /wnt claimtax.
