K122 Rules of Engagement (ROE)
PREAMBLE
- The K122 Rules of Engagement (ROE) are the result of the agreement by K122 Council of Clans (Council). In the interest of stability, the Council has made a commitment to hold these rules as listed for a period of three months (April 12, 2024 - July 12, 2024).
- Only the unanimous consent by the council to address a material change will be accepted in this time frame. Technical changes for clarity or non-material adjustments are permitted.
- The King shall carry out enforcement of ROE and is the secretary of the ROE and the Chair of the council, but not a voting member.
- Adjustments, additions, and considerations of ROE are the province of the K122 Council of Clans (aka King's Council).
1 - ELIGIBILITY FOR PROTECTION
- 1.1 - All clans which state they follow K122 ROE in their clan description are protected by these ROE.
- 1.2 - Only players enrolled in ROE-abiding clans are eligible for ROE protections, and they shall be referred to as Citizens of the kingdom. All other players are unprotected, and they shall be referred to as Visitors of the kingdom.
- 1.3 - Clan leaders are required to appoint a ROE teacher/diplomat from their clan. These must be listed in the clan description.
- 1.4 - Clan leadership is encouraged to confirm to the King that they understand the current ROE. Failure to do so may result in loss of ROE protection.
2 - ROE (PEACE TIME)
- 2.1 - Clans and players shall not attack or scout each other unless agreed upon by both players. If a citizen is attacked or scouted by another citizen and a battle report is able to be provided to HC to prove where this attack or scout came from, then the citizen or clan may retaliate on the citizen or portal owner where the attack or scout came from (not both locations). One attack for one attack or one scout for scout. The proven retaliation will not have compensation consequences in the HC if the Judge agrees with the report provided.
- 2.2 - Common Resource sites (Villages, Quarries, etc.) and Rare Resource Sites (Dragon Mounds and Wellspring Ruins) OUTSIDE of clans territory belong to the first citizen that occupies them. The first to arrive is the rightful owner and if an attack occurs it is considered illegal. All players are encouraged to only use T1/T2 Spearmen while gathering resources because compensation for an attack on such site will only be for those troops regardless of what was killed.
- 2.3 - Gold mines are not considered common resource sites and they belong to the player who created them.
- 2.4 - All resource sites (DM, TAR, Villages, etc.) within clan territory belong to the clan and can be managed by the clan as they wish.
- 2.5 - Unwanted occupiers of a Resource site can be kicked out by the clan or their allies without any warning.
- 2.6 - If a clan is to small to kick the player from the clans resource site then the clan leader or superiors may contact the Royal Guard for the removal of the intruder.
- 2.7 - Crypts, Arenas, Monster Citadels and other Monsters are not considered resources and can be taken by anyone.
3 - ROE (WAR TIME)
- 3.1 - COT (Clash Of Thrones) is the only game event when the kingdom is at WAR, and the following rules apply.
- 3.2 - Players may only attack players according to the 50% Might rule. For instance, a player with 22 mil might may only attack another player of 11 mil might, or above.
- 3.3 - If a player under 50% of your Might attacks or scouts you, then you are allowed to attack or acout them in retaliation. An attack for an attack or a scout for a scout. A battle report must be provided if proof is requested.
- 3.4 - All players ranked in the Top 100 in MIGHT (not COT Top 100) may attack each other.
- 3.5 - Clan buildings and ALL resource sites are always off limits and are not to be attacked.
- 3.6 - Reinforcing defending an attack is allowed. Clan marching (attacking with reinforcements) is not allowed (unless previously agreed upon by both clans).
- 3.7 - Clans may choose to drop 50% rule for their players. In this case, the clans that chose to do so, may only attack each other outside of this rule. The list of clans that agreed to this will be added to the ROE chat room prior to COT.
- 3.8 - Cities that have the hero Ayrin shall not be attacked by anyone during CoT (unless agreed upon by the players).
- 3.9 - Players may not change from or to the hero Ayrin during CoT.
- 3.10 - Ayrin players are also not allowed to attack any City or Portal within K122 (unless agreed upon), they must instead get their CP by attacking players from other kingdoms.
- 3.11 - Portals belonging to players using the hero Ayrin around the edges of K122 may only be attacked with a battle report to prove hostility.
4 - PORTALS
- 4.1 - Except for COT, portals are not to be attacked.
- 4.2 - During COT all Portals outside of clan territory are considered hostile and may be attacked, except for active Epic Monsters. If an attack comes from an Active Epic Monster Portal, then the portal is considered hostile and may be attacked if a valid attack report is provided and proves the attack came from the Epic Monster Portal.
- 4.3 - Portals of Citizens located within their own clan territory can never be considered hostile, and they may never be attacked.
- 4.4 - Portals for compensation must be used only during Peacetime, if they are used during war time it is at the risk of the portal owner.
- 4.5 - Citizens must be mindful about their open Portals during War time. We are aware of the needs and wants to support clan members with memorial Portals but during war time only clan territory Portals are protected. Clans are encouraged to unite with other clans by placing additional memorial Portals in support on their own clan's territory.
5 - HIGH COURT, JUDGES & OUTLAWS
- 5.1 - The HIGH Court (HC) is a last resort for players seeking compensation or justice from the judge who handles the case. Judges are experienced and impartial Citizens who understand ROE. They can only be appointed or dismissed by the King. Decisions they make are final, and may only be overruled by the King.
- 5.2 - On no account are Citizens to contact Judges, the King, or the Kings Hand or Queen privately in court matters, unless by invitation to do so.
- 5.3 - Only clan leaders and diplomats may address the court, and cases will only be heard in situations where a.) diplomatic efforts between players and/or clans have failed, and b.) both the defendant and the accused are K122 Citizens. Failure to comply with these criteria may result in the dismissal of the case and repeated infractions may result in a ban from HC.
- 5.4 - The clan of an offending player is in no way liable for a players actions, but is allowed to pay compensation on their behalf should they wish. Clans harboring outlawed players risk the same status. The decision to outlaw an entire clan can only come from the King.
- 5.5 - Should a player refuse to pay compensation awarded by the HC, or be found guilty of multiple offenses, the Judge may as a last resort select to give that player Outlaw status.
- 5.6 - Players with Outlaw status lose any and all rights otherwise afforded to them by ROE, and may be attacked at any time. Outlawed status can only be removed when outstanding compensation has been paid, or by order of the King.
6 - COMPENSATION TABLE
- 6.1 - The following compensation tables shall be used by the HC when deciding how much an offender owes their victim(s). All amounts state what the offender would have to send, not what the victim would have to receive. In other words, the receiver tolerates the caravan tax.
- 6.2 - For illegal city attacks, double the amount of stolen resources of Silver, Wood, Iron and Stone. The HC may decide at their discretion to lower the final amount of owed resources, if the amount of resources stolen is very high.
- 6.3 - 1 mil of Wood, Iron, and Stone per wall tier for repairing of City Walls.
- 6.4 - 10 mil Silver for the loss of a portal due to an illegal attack on the respective portal. This comes in addition to troop losses and replacement of stolen resources.
- 6.5 - For any troop losses (excluding mercenaries), 1M Silver is to be paid based on the highest tier lost, eg T4 = 4M silver.
- 6.6 - For attacks on DM and TAR, 2k Silver per each one resource stolen, Gold or Tar (for example 2 mil Silver for 1k stolen Gold), and troop losses based on section 6.5, Tier 1 or Tier 2 payment table.
- 6.7 - For attacks on Common Resource sites loss of the resource shall be compensated and see section 6.5, Tier 1 and Tier 2 payment table.
- 6.8 - Loss of mercenaries for illegal attacks not including common and rare resource sites, during Peace time will be an additional 2 mil Silver. Loss of mercenaries during war time may also be compensated if the HC deems it as a significant loss.
- 6.9 - For attacks on clan buildings, see section 7.
7 - Clan buildings
- 7.1 - All clan buildings are always protected from attacks. This includes clan buildings in clans containing outlawed players.
- 7.2 - Only the King may authorize attacks on certain clan buildings, under extreme circumstances.

8 - Taxes
- 8.1 - Taxes are mandatory to be paid by citizens of K122 and thus tax collections shall be enforced.
- 8.2 - Citizens are encouraged therefore to pay their taxes as often as possible, so that the King can activate Buffs from the treasury that would help out the entire kingdom. This also helps other kingdoms from being able to steal them for their own benefit.
- 8.3 - The duties of the Royal Guard include collecting gold ingots for the kingdom treasury to ensure other kingdoms do not steal them for themselves and allow the King to activate the bonuses for the benefit of the entire kingdom. The gold ingots will be collected from tax evaders per the following amounts listed.
- City level x 1000 with a minimum of 20k ingots shown in city.
- Example city level 20 x 1000 = 20k, city level 32 x 1000 = 32k.
- 8.4 - All citizens are permitted to collect taxes on Visitors and Outlaws.
9 - ROYAL PROTECTION
- 9.1 - The King may assign Royal Protection to any player in the kingdom, regardless if they are in a ROE clan or not. This will prohibit any unwarranted attack on the player.
- 9.2 - Players below 500k Might are automatically under Royal Protection, regardless if they are in a ROE clan or not.
- 9.3 - A player under Royal protection may still be attacked under the following conditions.
- If they occupy a resource site on another clans territory (only the resource site may be attacked).
- If they have a hostile portal (only the hostile portal may be attacked).
- If they attack a clan building.
- Players under Royal Protection may attack each other during COT.
- 9.4 - Citizens are encouraged to help out players under Royal Protection to find a clan that follows ROE, and tolerate any attacks from them.
10 - MIGRATION
