Stereotypes

'There's a lot of different types of people who play Rise Of Nations and you might find some or even most of the listed stereotypes in an average game. Who knows, you might even be one of the stereotypes below.'

=Main types=

Beginner
A beginner is one of the most common stereotypes found in RoN, given as they're new players who are still learning a lot about the game, and make many mistakes. Most of the time, beginners make rather frustrating mistakes such as: sending divisions to invade another nation without declaring war, merging all their soldiers into a singular division, making factories without having/trading for any resources, and at times, (after discovering how to declare war) might send a White Peace after completely occupying a nation. This type of player either has no clue with that they're doing, or knows just a bit about the game and would like to learn more.

These players often get help and advice from other players in the server, or sometimes even manipulated to do things for a more experienced player.

The inexperienced players are the most important players to RON's lifespan. These players are playing the game for fun, and immediately fall in love with the amount of detail put into it. Discouraged by toxic players and those who break the rules. It's your job no matter where you fall on the list to support these players and to give them the best experience possible.


 * "guys why is my factories red?


 * "wait why isn't a part of me now? (after sending a WP to a nation he completely invaded)

Average
These players are basically just beginners, however they have learned quite a bit how to play. They usually don't want war against players because they are not good enough, so they usually make diplomatic relations by allying neighbors and superpowers,

 * Makediplomatic relations
 * Usually nice
 * Have below or more than 50k XP


 * They will most likely attack Entrenched AI troops.

Good
These players are better than average and know how to play a strong nation. They are a bit more confident when fighting plays. They can resist other nations' attacks and easily take the AI. These are the players that make up the majority of any server.


 * Will probably never forget to upgrade Technology
 * They build Electronic Factories and sell for income
 * Have formed Byzantine Empire or something of the same difficulty
 * Can play 2/3 of superpowers

Excellent
These players are very excellent at playing, they can manage a navy, and an airforce, along with several wars.


 * Can beat several players in a war at the same time.


 * Have a lot of factories
 * Sometimes a bit greedy with their resources and don't wish to trade

Pro
These players are extremely powerful. With massive tank armies, navies, and ships. They are very dangerous, and usually dominate continents.


 * Often will 1v1 or 1v2 other people
 * Will maybe appear on the leaderboards ingame
 * Can often defeat big countries with smart movements
 * Make a LOT of tanks
 * Serves justice to cocky superpower

Veteran
Have played since the start of the game, are incredibly experienced.

 * Knows how to effectively use units (even weak ones)
 * Guaranteed to appear in XP leaderboard in the lobby
 * Owns a supercomputer
 * Often called hackers (sometimes they are)

=Specific Types= Below are the more specific types.

Capitalist
Tend to be reserved and keep to themselves, don't exactly enjoy war. They enjoy building an expansive economy and trading. If you're not careful they will topple you in rankings and will be able to fund a huge army. They also usually tend to build monopolies on resources and force other users to buy resources from them for higher prices.


 * "BRO LOOK AT RANKINGS"
 * "[Example Country] buy my [Example resource] now!

Conqueror
Usually people who enjoy combat and war, love to play countries in Europe and the struggle to make it on top gives them a rush. Their motto is “take, take and keep taking” infrastructure only matters if it helps them hop into the next war.

are either loud and toxic or just straightforward eerie and silent. would sometimes WP a nation who had proven themselves extremely resistant and on the contrary, would sometimes annex you as a whole and rarely, scorch you as an insult.

Example:

[Germany]: lol u guys suck go play adopt me

Example 2:

[France]: Balkan wp now

Example 3:

[UK]: LOL get scorched nub ####################

The Loud and Toxic
Often plays strong regional powers, such as Brazil, Germany, Japan, Russia etc. These countries are extremely strong relative to their neighbors, which range from weak to moderately decent. Because of the large amount of weak, but still played, countries this country is able to harass and bully players through the chat, they will often infantry spam for the first five image years before deciding that the construction of tanks might be a good call because, even though these countries are relatively strong; they can still ruffle the feathers of the large countries near by.

For Germany: it's Russia, for Japan: it's China, for Brazil: it's the US. When the feathers of the superpowers have been ruffled, the infantry spamming won't cut it and it is most likely once their capital is captured, they will rage quit!

The alliancing dude
most of them are New, what makes this type of player special is that he depends of his allies for his own defense, commonly if you declare war 3/4 of the server will be at war with you but the country doesn't make nothing to defend themselves, the most recomendable option is kill them fast before the reinforcements arrive. He has one special sentence: [country] Help me [Country] justified!! They're mostly nine year olds who don't even know how to play the game.

The Eerie and Silent
These players are usually good to excellent, they have no problem playing any country, but some likely contenders are Egypt, Turkey, South Africa, Indonesia, etc. They will not say anything in chat unless asked directly. In lesser played regions they will breeze through the AI countries and when a European power decides they want to expand farther out they will be surprised to find one of the largest countries in game stopping them from entering. They don't actually care about the chat, but they care about the game.

When they are large enough they will go to war with player countries or snake around, and encircle them before invading. With how quiet they can be it can be terrifying as you never know where they will attack next. They often kick around superpowers without uttering a word, and are bartered with on multiple occasions for the privilege of surviving. If any type of player is going to take over the entire world, it would be this type as they are not held down by having to write in chat and their sheer determination.

Diplomat
These people are ultra charismatic and prefer negotiation over war, just like real diplomats, they gain power through influence and tend to have powerful allies that will help in their time of need. Can vary from 1-5, 1 being just allying with powerful countries with no secure goals, and 5 are players who can take advantage of a situation.

Example:

[Serbia]: Italy can I buy Slovenia for Yugoslavia? I don't really want a war.

Example 2:

[Austria]: oh no Turkey will attack me and he wants all my land and bosnia, help me pls!

Example 3:

[Guatemala]:MEXICO JUSTIFIED PLS QING I NEED HALP

Germany players
to god who will really stomp on you if you're not careful. Often very sweaty and love to terrorize the smaller countries in Europe. Sometimes roleplay as Hitler. They can be a great friend, or an even greater enemy. Tries to speedrun Europe for Germany WWII skin.

Ultra-imperialists
These players often want to achieve the empire formables like the British Empire, gain resources, or just be able to brag about how they created an empire. They can be found on all continents of the Earth and create some horrifying border gore. Pretty annoying if suddenly you find an imperial country has just occupied the land you were planning to take. Most effective way to take them out is to surprise them with an invasion of their homeland, by which I mean capital snipe. Your greatest advantage is concentration of forces, since their troops are almost always far away trying to capture new lands for their fledging empire. It will destroy their stability and many of their imperial holdings will declare independence. In order to attempt such an invasion, you will probably have to conquer a country near them for a base of operations. This makes you an imperial dog too. Therefore, in order to beat them, join them.

Ultra-Nationalists
Ah yes the ultra nationalist. players who strongly identify with the nation they play as and vigorously supports its Military, Culture, and Race. would also usually talk with the language of the nation they are playing as Highly Popular with Germany with the High Wehraboo population, but also other nations like the UK, Japan, Soviet union (yes mainly the soviet union) and others. Would rant a lot about how better they are then any other nation. talking high about their military with high hyperbole, talks a lot about their culture is better then everyone else. and sometimes even going to the race road. their main goals are too reunite the race of the country they are playing as or take back land once lost. they also don't like the idea of another nation owning a country of their race,

Example- [Germany]- Italy, OUT OF SWITZERLAND

would also usually try to retake lands that their nation at one point lost in history, as the most common example Germany taking Poland to regain their old Prussian lands. and would also be very ignorant to the idea of surrender or peace deals no in their favor, these players usually have that "live or die" mentality and would really be annoying at some point.

The Communist
There's always that ONE guy that takes Russia from being playable, bully his neighbors, Form USSR and have a political debate on chat with the Chilean kid (editor's note: yes it happened to me lmao xd), Not the polite debates, I meant the really toxic ones where 1 guy is the calm and roasting one, and the other spams biased and probably fake info (you get the point), they also cry like if was the end of the world when China/Germany declares war on them

Cook islands player
Loves playing the cook islands because its a meme. Attention seekers, will use the fact that Cook Islands is the weakest country to be quirky and act like they're pros when they do anything as the country. They either leave the server in a year, or sit around expanding slower than a 80 year old snail until they' re a superpower.

Would also occasionally justify and outwards declare war on some poor random nation halfway around the world for "fun" you can usually ask or pay a player in Asia or Oceania to Annex them, or wait it out until the Cook player is bored and leaves, therefor WP

They also have very low XP (Under 100,000) and want to grind.

Literally a Strawman / "The Qing Player"
This guy forms Qing and then becomes toxic as hell. Likes pushing around weaker players and making other players quit. Usually complains when everyone gangs up on them. Not very good and can usually be beaten by any average player. Almost always get obliterated by players who get annoyed. its when they lose they scorch and usually country hop, they usually use spam as their main "strategy" and they can be very salty sometimes. Often doesn't give a single sh*t about their economies and/or stability, and are often more vulnerable to Corruption and Insurgencies.


 * "KAZAKHSTAN IS MINE"
 * "JAPAN DONT INVADE KOREA"
 * "INDIA TAJIKISTAN IS MINE"
 * "WHOEVER TAKES BHUTAN WILL BE KILLED"
 * "BREAK TIES WITH RUSSIA"
 * "CENTRAL ASIA IS MINE INDIA!! ##########"
 * "IF YOU TOUCH VIETNAM YOU'RE DED"
 * "DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT GOING AFTER SE ASIA"
 * "PAKISTAN, DONN'T INVADE THE REST OF THE STANS!!! ##############"
 * "WHY IS SHANXI INDEPENDANT I ####### #### THSI GAME"
 * "TAIWAN PLAY AS SOMEONE ELSE"
 * "SOVIET WHY DID YOU JUSTIFY"
 * "WHY DID I JSUT GET UNCONTROLLABLE CORRUPTION #############"
 * "WHAT WHY IS THERE AN INSRUGENCY???!/1?/!?!"
 * "NAU IF YOU TAKE SIERRA LEONE I WILL #### ###"
 * "RUSSIA GIVE ME KAZAKHSTAN"

You get it. Toxic, loud, and and angry when someone takes something they planned to take.

The Taiwan Player

 * Considered as a good defender which must survive as long as it's possible and resist Chinese or Japanese forces which are much larger in early-game
 * Navy expert, mainly crashing thousands more of Chinese forces managed by the average China player.
 * Usually toxic to China players when they lose
 * Is very smart.

Debtmen
Have big ambitions, have little reason. They might be semi-skilled players adapting to a nation they don't play often, or players who want to have fun with the game's units without paying attention to their economy. A debtman or debtwoman will build a ton of units, more than they need, ignore their deficit, and than have chills settle down their spine when they see the red letters at the bottom of their screen.  IN DEBT  or "LOW STABILITY".

The Troll
This is the player that plays as a weak nation and declares war on powerful factions (This is breaking a rule so you should report) and countries and try and cause chaos. They usually get bored and leave with their cities scorched all over while everybody thinks he rage quit. (This happened to me once, but they had an ally, so it was WWIII)

The Neutral One
This player will do anything to be peaceful and neutral. They never form alliances, they just build forts and put artillery and infantry on them, and submarines in the water if they are an island. They usually play good defensive nations like Switzerland or Romania. Usually has a very high quality army. specialized on the terrain and Biome they are in, and would use the terrain and biome to their advantage.

If invaded they would resist extremely, they are somehow able to manage the fact half of their nation being taken over and somehow still able to fight back with the bare minimum of money and manpower they have. they usually get some form of aid such as money and manpower and are able to really hit hard at times, killing large chunks of troops while having small casualties.

(Sometimes says they are neutral even though they get allies and declare war, weird right?)

The Strategist
These players have over 1,000,000 XP and play small countries that are usually invaded early on and use strategy to become strong and rage others.

[P.S I did this at 400k]

Rage Spammer
Often after a defeat, these toxic little pieces of annoying 7-8 year old's crap spam troops to make the server lag. Usually Gets very angry and mad after they are defeated.

The Timebomb
These are the players who expand as fast as possible for the 10 minutes before you can scorch, then scorch or cede all their lands and leave. Often plays as Poland, Russia, or China.

The Resource Hog
Unless you're selling resources to these players for free, these players will NEVER EVER accept your trades, Not even if you decrease/increase the price. They won't do you a favor, give land when they leave, and are usually just Russia or China or even USA and Brazil.


 * "Russia accept trade pls?"


 * "Russia has refused our lucrative trade offer!"

Pro
Usually rare, will make MANY factories, spams tanks and invades any country even if it is a player. Just like Caribbean Federation beating up a USA Player brutally, or a Korea making a cocky Qing cry a river and Iran humiliating an artillery spamming Indian player that demands Afghanistan from the player for its formables. If he/she has low XP they play as Bermuda and takes over the world.

The Hardcore guy
Rare and mostly Mongolia or Kazakhstan.

Either just making a bad decision or being serious formable guy. (see above)

''' Note: Type was originally The 10 Year Old but replaced due to some nincompoop changing the description into a swear word! (don't do this please) '''

The Electronics Seller
These people make electronics and sell them. They care a lot about stability and economy. They don't ally people, and usually play small countries and expand to become powerful to grind XP.

The OWO player
These guys ONLY play as Russia, New Zealand, Australia and Nigeria because HAHA funny GORE OWO GAY SYNDICATE OMG WAGGA WAGGA COMMUNITY OMG OWO ALLIANCE OWO UNION OWO GORE PACT XDDDDDDD, These guys have a really bad sense of humor and SOMEHOW the whole server just laugh up spamming LOL or LMAO like an average tiktoker. These guys are just unfunny trolls who snipe these countries for their own trash sense of humor.

Rule breaker
People who break game rules. Like disbanding troops to make it easier for players/himself to invade. Players don't last long because they get reported and banned, but most have a VPN to make new accounts. Will also sometimes be a hypocrite and calling you out for doing minor things that aren't breaking the rules.

Example:

[USA]- GUYS REPORT CANADA HE DECLARED WAR ON MEXICO!! [Canada]- I'm not breaking a rule! But YOU did, country hopper!

The Frenchie Guy
This guy, oh god....its the two Extremes, Either a very annoying Far left that will call out nations as a racist user because of a light joke on the chat and REPORTS the lightest offense, OR a very Far Right Incel that Only allies European countries, Focuses on Rather trashing Russia Players Rather than actually solving their 100 billion Debt caused by steel factories.

Expect these players to send you an ally request in approximately 6 seconds after you successfully get to play a super power. ask you for aid anytime they feel the slightest bit of trouble, and continuously having an argument with a random player for no obvious reason.

Tends to take over half of Africa and never do anything with it


 * USA accept ally request pls?
 * Can someone pls send aid or send troops to europe? germany justified! (that happen on me several times and france called UK and Itally XD)
 * SPAIN DON'T TAKE ANDDORA
 * ITALY DON'T TAKE SWITZERLAND
 * UNITED KINGDOM DON'T TAKE NETHERLANDS

- gets ganged by both Spain,Germany and ,United Kingdom and Italy.


 * America help im being invaded on all sides

Turkey Players
They usually live in Turkey, and want to form the Ottoman Empire. If not Turkey, allies the Turkey player and speaks and spams Turkish in chat. maybe not turkish.. but forms the Ottoman Empire anyway.

Usually beats up Balkan countries or on the other hand, gets beat up by Balkan countries. if the turkey player is a good player then he would turn turkey into a superpower. if its a bad player then turkey would usually be left as an AI until Russia, Greece or any other nation eats them


 * * turkish sentence*
 * a bit of english
 * no teak bosnia and herzegovina
 * Syria is mine thanks
 * egypt dont take israel pls
 * the big i in any sentence with i
 * Greece even if we're allies dont take cyprus ok?

speaking of Balkan countries

The Balkan players
ah yes your usual normal Balkan players, would usually have around 0-4 in each server (excluding turkey) and would really be a weird limbo in Europe. yes they have their normal stereotypes such as Serbia wanting to form Yugoslavia, or Greece wanting to form the Spartan empire or Turkey just casually rushing these poor players like a train. but they would usually be a spot for some of the most random things that can happen in a server, for examples: Greece invading Italy, and the Balkans teaming together to steamroll Turkey (see above)

These players would usually be either loud or toxic (Which is quite normal considering, well... its the Balkans), or on a weird, kinda dark space, questioning their Role in Europe and having a mental breakdown, they would also be either crushed by someone else or unified by one of them: by crushed i mean the usual Italy and Turkey thing with Albania and Greece, and by unified by one of them i mean: Greece forming byzantium, or Yugoslavia ruling the Balkans.


 * HELP TURKEY IS INVADING ME!!! (cries of a poor Greece player getting rushed)
 * YUGOSLAVIA CEDE SLOVENIA, AND CROATIA TO AUSTRIA HE NEEDS IT TO FORM! (a German ultra-nationalist "see above" ordering a Yugoslavia player)
 * CHARGE BROTHERS! WE WILL TAKE ANKARA! (a Montenegrin war cry, after his Balkan faction successfully took Istanbul or Izmir)

Kazakhstan Players

 * Usually has all of the really good recourses everyone needs, but never gives them to anyone.
 * Begs russia and china to not kill them
 * usually doesnt take over a country and stays neutral (like a swiss)

El Latino
Language Barrier is their either a difficulty or a very useful Weapon of war, They always spam their 2 subscriber Channel that only has Chinese PubG copy, Minecraft Usually pocket edition and fortnite, In case the Latino choses Chile and another Latino chosen Argentina. Oh boy, be ready for the Spanish Spam.


 * oye, ¿puedes suscribirte a mi canal de twitch?
 * ¡Lionel messi es el mejor futbolista del siglo!
 * #### de #######
 * hola

That one Qing player
Let's say, you've been a worse than bad Qing player. Let's say, hypothetically, you've lost to Mongolia even. Okay, and if you lost to Mongolia you would be a bad player right? Then hypothetically speaking you would be cocky. Now let's say that you're also toxic, and I am Taiwan. Now that we've established you're both a bad Qing player and toxic, then I believe you'd agree with me when I say you deserve a spanking. Am I not correct? A bad Qing player deserves a spanking and as I am Taiwan, you are my Qing, so I am the one who must provide punishment.

Pvp guy
There are 2 subtypes to explain these guys

Trash "pvp"er
confident guy who can "take down" the qing player but doesn't

always loses and ragequits

Actually good "PvP"er
actually able to wreck the qing player or atleast snipe their capital even if they lose

can either win or lose, and doesn't even get mad.

is between the main types of "good" and "pro"

The "Ally"
Immediately accepts your alliance request, and when someone declares war on you they immediately peace out with the enemy and if they decline they rage quit

literally leaves after 1 minutes
Usually attacked by a nation, or they don't know how to play the game and wont read the tutorial because most of them think their doing "schoolwork"

"USA can we be allies please?" players
begs USA to be its allies as united states is a superpower and both a military and a economic powerhouse, this is common for a server that has a user that plays as a Mexico, Canada and Cuba

would sometimes also ally each other with the US as a center (literally and figuratively) creating a strong union of north American nations, boosting in both economy and military and quite frightening to fight against. or on the contrary.

these players would also sometimes use the US alliance like a medieval recognition from the pope to say "Hey we exists, we ally a super power, don't invade us or USA is gonna deal with you". these people would usually only care about their own interest, often plotting against USA with your local Qing Dynasty players and would also complain if they got found out and invaded.

Overprouds
Ah yes the Overproud users, usually plays as the country they originate from and doesn't know how to play the game, most of these users are common in southeast Asia, and the Indian subcontinent often in the middle east south America and central America and even North America.

Ethiopian players
usually a good player. if they are a noob, then they would declare war on Sudan instantly and lose due to Sudan having more troops than them and leaves after 2–3 minutes

Evil and Deceitful
These players will ally you... / accept your ally requests...

And legit break ties with you and 2 years later attack you and snipe your capital they will attack your AI ally which has only you or another as his ally, resulting in you joining the war to his/her favor and possibly snipe your capital.

Very rare, very dangerous and very, very deceitful. Usually pro to veteran.

You're dead if you have minimal or not enough defense in your mainland, even if other countries are your ally since you only got dragged in on the fake war.

' Avoid them at ALL costs, in any way possible. '

Arguing Players
As said these are the players arguing about literally anything and will usually try to kill each other until someone of the other side quits.

Example:

[Warlord][Turkey][Exampleguy1]: Lol stop taking Israel dumb idiot go take idk a crap

[Exampleguy2][Egypt]: BRUH WHY ARE YOU RANDOMLY INSULTING ME YOU COULD HAVE ASKED FOR IT >:(

[Warlord][Turkey][Exampleguy1]: idc give me now

[Exampleguy2][Egypt]: NO NOOB

Padishah players
usually a noob,they yell at you for taking a country they need for their formables,if you declare war on him/her they'll spam you with white peace request,and scorch all of their land when you occupied 1 city

"[Padishah] [Denmark] [Examplename1]: netherlands why did you take iceland i need it for kalmar union !"

"[Padishah] [Denmark] [Examplename1]:    Germany please white peace i just want to form kalmar union"

"[Padishah] [Denmark] [Examplename1]:  NO PLEASE STOP PLEASE I JUST WANT TO FORM KALMAR UNION"

"[Padishah] [Denmark] [Examplename1]:      WHSJGWGWGB WHY?! WHYYYYYYYYYYYYY ################################# I HATE YOU"

Diplomatic Stringpuller
This sort of player is the type that plays or becomes a superpower then maintains their rank by massively boosting their economy and stability, and uses diplomacy to a great extent to achieve their goals.

When their economy is massive, they don't go and wipe out more countries off the surface of the Earth using their armies, but secretly sends aid to competent smaller countries fighting another superpower. Sometimes they demand something in return (such as favorable trade deals), sometimes they don't, but they will nevertheless enjoy the sight of a superpower wasting so much of their strength on what they think is a weak country and start gaining war exhaustion and losing stability, causing them to slowly break apart. Such players make it seem like they have no allies on the outside, but in reality have a secret network of allies who might even be an ally of another superpower.

* [China sends aid to Norway]* [China whispering to Norway]: shhhhh dont tell anybody! [Norway whispering to China]: Okay :) [USA]: How does Norway have such a big navy, what the heck? * Texas has declared independence from United States!* [Norway]: Gentlemen, I am proud to announce that this is the result of 2 million American losses compared to 20k Norwegian losses. [USA]: Someone is sending aid to Norway, I'm sure of it. [China]: Nah you just suck, you don't even have a navy :)

The toxic loss-causer
This guy will play as any random nation, when someone invades them they will scorch themselves at the first sign of danger and then pretend like their winning by saying "lol look at those losses" and "I'm just chilling in this one city while you lose thousands of men a day". Pretend they are pros because they caused you so many losses, while ignoring the fact that causing losses by scorching isn't really any achievement. Usually extremely toxic. Keeps on laughing about your losses till they start breaking apart due to low stability from scorching (they never think about that). Usually leaves the game at this point.

The specific country player
These people want to play a specific country such as Germany, Russia or China, but someone else gets the country so they server hop. They have bad grammar too.

"bro you stole my countyr give it bacc!!!!@!@!@"

The naval stacker
These people will try to stack their ships into one unkillable stack so you can't win no matter what. Kinda good.

The mountain user
These players play as countries like Switzerland or Iran in order to use their mountains to pretty much destroy your forces by stacking as much as they can. Good idea right?

Tank Fish fans
These players came from the Roblox YouTuber Tank Fish. Usually they either play as China, the USA, Russia or Germany and become toxic af and occasionally bypass the Roblox filters. This is widely believed to be where the stereotypical toxic Qing, North American, Soviet and German players originated from.


 * "Hey taiwan a boss fight is approaching you better prepare yourself"
 * "Hello there france ready to die?"
 * "Poland is mine"
 * "I swear im not gonna become fascist. trust me"
 * "Why do i hear boss music" (after qing/china/roc justifies on them)
 * "Flank and spank them as sun tzu once said"
 * "did somebody said oil?"
 * "Ze RICE farmer!"
 * "WHERE THE #### IS SLOVANIA?!?!?!?" (finds slovenia 2 seconds later)

The Netherlands player
This type of player is mostly average or good. He will most likely form the Benelux and will try to ally one of its big neighbors such as France. He will also try take Switzerland or Denmark, because they are the nearest countries that are weak enough to be annexed. As soon as the UK, France or Germany declares war on him, he will most likely accept his fate and cry about how difficult it is to play this country that is surrounded by three giants so they can legit stop. These people are just kids.

Seriously, why would you want to play as The Netherlands. That country is just a nightmare to play as.

The Small Nation Player
This player will play as a really small nation with 1-3 cities. Like Luxembourg for example. They will try the diplomatic side and get into a faction so that they can not fear any of the bordering countries. They will usually expand into the regions they are in, like if it's Liechtenstein they will probably annex Switzerland. Once they're in their faction and got bigger, they'll just sit around for a bit and wait until the faction goes to war with another big faction and they'll send volunteers to the front.

The Guy That Just Sits There After You Annexed Them
Say that you are Sweden and some guy is playing Denmark. You are trying to form the Kalmar Union, so you declare war on them and with naval superiority, you annex them. Now, usually after someone loses, they'll either leave, return to the lobby or switch countries. However, this player will just sit there and will still be in the server. Occasionally, they will sneak some soldiers leftover from when you annexed them and get them on boats and invade another random country. Once they do, they'll now play there when they could have just switched countries to play as them. Then they'll keep expanding into the region they're in and they'll never leave. Eventually after you've done what you did you might just give up and release them. Now, they'll thank you and then go onto their conquest of the region you released them in. If you don't do this, he'll just still be there expanding into the region he's in even though he has no capital and has constant rebels.

Redditors
Usually uncommon on a server with them playing as brazil its either they spam "You're going to brazil" and "HUEHUEHUEHUEHUEHUEHUEHUEHUEHUE" constantly and leaves after 3–9 minutes. speaking of brazilian players

Brazilians
There are 5 types of Brazilians players

Imperialist
Usually colonizes west Africa and yells "DO NOT TAKE GOLD COAST!!!!" every time someone takes a bit of it.

Alguem brasileo
Speaks full portuguese until someone does, if there are 2 brazilian in a server oh boy your about to witness a portuguese onslaught until they leave the server

Redditor
Spams "Your going to brazil" or any unfunny memes because funny HAAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA FUNNY BRAZIL BIG CHUNGUS E HAHAHHAHAHAHA FUNNY IM A REDDITOR! or even HUEHUEHUEHUEHUE LAUGH AT MY MEME GUYS! Usually leaves after 3 minutes after they got bored.

that one dude who uses perfect grammar and always scares Argentina the only time they aren't AI
"Argentina, stop." "Release your territories." "You will fall one day, Argentina." "I'm making bombers Argentina, so you better watch out."

The pro
It's very rare to encounter such a player. Can form (if he wants to) United States of South America earlier than 2022, and can conquer United States. Usually very quiet or a mixture of this and one of the types above.

The Scorcher
Usually very toxic, and scorches any of your cities they captured, OR they scorch an area of their land you are invading. Sometimes they do this as an act of revenge for invading their friend or conquering their previous country. They also usually scorch all of their land when they go or when they think it's a guaranteed loss from the point of a war.

Industrial war machine
spam factories and make a load of money using their resources usually plays as a resources rich country notably Russia and Kazakhstan (see above) and goes for communism wont hesitate to invade its neighboring countries for more resources for its factory
 * "Hey Iran stop I need Uzbekistan for more resources"
 * "Germany what are you doing? I need you to white peace Ukraine immediately so I can gain more resources for my factor

Irrelevant country players

 * Usually plays as small and irrelevant countries' like Greenland, Solomon Islands, Togo
 * Tries to get attention in chat
 * Gets ignored by literally every other player
 * Quits after 3-5 minutes because everybody is ignoring him
 * Sometimes grows and takes over a large empire in 2030, becoming a world power.

"Release Palestine"
Usually will harass any Israel player until they get release Palestine. sometimes the Israel player will put up a fight but is usually too weak.

examples -


 * "Israel release Palestine right now"
 * "I will invade if u dont release Palestine"

"Egypt was able to forge a justification to go to war with us! Justification : Liberation."

Rage Creator
These bad apples only think it is fun to bully players into submission, and generally targeting them the entire time. They are an annoyance to servers and the communities there, if you encounter one, brace yourself and don't even BOTHER arguing with them.

Here are some examples:


 * "I don't care what I do, it doesn't matter!"
 * (As Austria) "Turkey has justified war against us! Justification: Conquest/Liberation."
 * "Nobody cares dude. Just shut it already."

Switzerland player
Usually an Average-Pro player. They will build factories or forts or maybe even both in every city they have and will stay neutral. Because, Switzerland neutral amirite? Or just form Alpine Republic and then stay neutral. They can usually defend themselves, but country swap when they fail to do so.

The "Second Coming of RoN Christ"
These players are surprisingly common, and not too hard to identify. They believe that they will be the next Rise of Nations god, and that nobody is better than them. Their favoured countries are Germany, United States, China and Russia. They often have decent levels of skill, which boosts their ego, in turn causing them to overestimate themselves. Once they lose a war, they will not accept that it was because of a poor choice they made, their lack of skill, or simply because you were a larger country, they will instead tell themselves it was YOUR fault. Popular Excuses include: "bro youre sad ur just hiding in forts" "wow u need allies" "dude, our troops were the same, u gotta be hacking" (you then explain you upgraded in the tech tree) "what a loser" "imagine anti-tank" "your terrain is so annoying" "hacker" "tank spam" "arty spam" "infantry spam" "battleship spam" "sub spam" "plane spam"

The Islamic Caliphate Former
These are players that attempts to form the Islamic Caliphate. They are calm at first, but if you take any of their land they need to form, they get super duper toxic and angry.

[(Insert Title Here)] [Persian Empire]: #######################

Capital Sniper
These are players that captures another country's capital right away after declaring war, or start their offensives capturing their capital.

(Bhutan loses all their troops)

That one USA player
These players always try to play as the United States of America and they as soon as possible try to make the NAU. These players just like "The Qing Player", can be really arrogant and toxic. They may not be so good, and can be really bad not caring about their stability. Extremely vulnerable to collapse especially if Canada and Mexico are players, and are both very skilled and smart.

The Yellowknife Fortifier
These players always play as Canada. They either declare war on the United States or the reverse. All they want to do is cause pain for that American player, wether they are forming NAU or not. They can be very annoying. What they do is when they lose all their land in those battles, they spawn troops in their northernmost city, Yellowknife. They fortify the city as well, and since Yellowknife is in the arctic, Extremely heavy losses will be taken by those victims or the NAU formers. (But NAU is Cringe anyway so who cares)

United States has declared war on Canada

United States has declared war on Mexico

"Both Countries lose their most important cities, Mexico collapses but Canada starts fortifying Yellowknife"

Grandmasters
Grandmasters are those who use the title Grandmaster in the game for getting 10 million xp. There are 3 types of grandmasters:

The good grandmasters
These are professional players that also have time to get 10 million xp. They are basically Pro's with extra steps.

The bad grandmasters
These players probably grinded the xp in late servers, and rarely fight any players. They are usually extremely overestimated due to their title. Their PvP skills are somewhat similar to Good players.

Shitmasters
They are bad grandmasters, but with only a quarter of their intelligence. Probably took them several months to get the grandmaster title. They usually break the rules and "troll" people. They often fail miserably.
