The rules on one page

Every promise in this guide, one line each. If it is not here, it is not a rule.

Getting in#

Join the Discord, log in with Discord, link your gamertag with three emotes in order.
One gamertag per Discord account, one Discord account per gamertag.
You cannot unlink while in a clan.

Three linked players each lower and raise the white flag at one unbound pole within 10 minutes.
Claim on the site within 24 hours: name, tag, one of the 33 flags, roster.
Raise your flag at that pole within 24 hours of claiming, or the reservation lapses.
Reserved and active clans get the same supply kit at every restart, your clan flag included. Rank buys nothing. Lose your flag to a raid and the crate stops, but your flag keeps spawning.

Every flagpole is a base. Declared is private; everything else is public, with the flag flying there.
One declaration per player: your clan's base, or one solo base.
New poles get 7 days before going public; released poles get 3.
No two declared bases within 200 m. First declared wins.
A solo base becomes a clan base by ceremony, only if the declarant takes part.
Joining a clan releases your solo declaration.
A solo declaration lapses after 7 days without a raise by the declarant.

A raid is a non-member lowering a clan's flag at its declared base.
A clan scores at most once against the same victim in any 24 hours.
Solo raiders are announced but score nothing.
Base damage is on Friday 00:00 UTC to Monday 00:00 UTC. Boosting in and lowering flags is legal all week.
Announcements name clans and players, never places.

Flag down: re-raise within 24 hours for a defense, or go dormant.
No member raise for 7 days: dormant.
Dormant: the supply crate stops, your flag still spawns at your pole, unranked, name, tag and flag kept.
Any member raise revives you with points intact.
Dormant 14 days: disbanded, flag back to the pool; name and tag held until season end.
Only a member's raise counts. Getting raided never costs your name, tag or flag.

Only raids score: 200 on #1, 100 on the bottom or an unranked clan, sliding between. Dormant clans cannot be raided.
Week: Monday 00:00 UTC to Monday 00:00 UTC. Top three that week are Alphas.
Season: wipe to wipe. Champion recorded forever; points reset; clans do not. A wipe keeps your base's spot: your kit spawns there, and the first member raise of a white flag (or your own) at a pole within 100 m of it becomes your new base.
Scoreboard, directory, war log, clan pages and player profiles are public. Coordinates and positions never are.
Kills are stats, never points.

Ten players, hard cap.
Joiners are pending until seen within 50 m of the base. Invites, requests and no-shows expire after 7 days.
A leader removed from the Discord is replaced at once by the longest-serving officer, then member.
Leaving or being kicked: 3-day cooldown. Disbanding: none.
Leader silent 7 days: an officer can claim; the leader has 48 hours to show up in game.
No-confidence vote: 48 hours, two-thirds of all full members, ex-leader stays as officer, 14 days between failed votes. Kicks and transfers frozen while a vote is open.
Rebrand (name, tag or flag) once per 30 days. Old names and tags — renamed or disbanded — are held until season end.
Moving your base: raise your own flag at a free pole, leader confirms within 24 hours, 7 days between moves.
The vault never posts a code to Discord. Departed members' locks are flagged until rotated.

Positions are last known, once every 5 minutes, and always show their age.
You see your clanmates, your base, intruders in your 100 m watch zone, public bases, and clan pins. Nothing else.
Pins are clan-only and expire after 7 days.

Stand at an outhouse, well pump or your own active clan's flagpole, relog, and you are at the Hub. Pick a town door, relog again. All 518 fixed travel points are a map layer.
The Hub is neutral, shared and a no-combat zone: a hit, a kill or a trap there is an automatic 1 hour ban, and a kill there counts for nothing. Combat logging rules still apply to a fast-travel relog.

No exploits, duping, glitching, cheating, alts, stream sniping, whitewalling.
Raidable gates, no floating, two towers high, no loot buildings, no roads.
Outside the window: boost in, but never dismantle, build, or fence-to-gate — in the window or out. The bot catches it and the base's owner presses charges from /base against whoever they choose, no ticket needed.
No takeovers of declared bases. No griefing. No combat logging.
Staff remove people. The system does the rest.
