Current Alliance message
The Global Defense Initiative (GDI) is an open organization dedicated to the protection of our members. As a member of GDI, you will receive the protection of GDI forces. No country more than twice your size or less than half your size will be able to go to attack you without first formally declaring war. However, we require your assistance in return. You will be required to pay $3 per acre of land you own to the GDI fund as long as you are with us. In addition, you will not be allowed to commit offensive acts against countries greater than twice your size or smaller than half your size. You cannot join the GDI unless you have not made an attack for at least 18 hours.
Current Primary message
The Global Defense Initiative (GDI) is an open organization dedicated to the protection of our members. As a member of GDI, you will receive the protection of GDI forces. Unless you have attacked a country twice or more, that country will only be able to commit the following attacks or harmful spy ops against you: standard strikes, planned strikes, steal tech, bomb banks, burn oil, and burn bushels. However, we require your assistance in return. You will be required to pay $5 per acre of land you own to the GDI fund as long as you are with us. In addition, you will not be allowed to commit offensive acts which are not standard strikes, planned strikes, or beneficial spy ops against other countries unless they have attacked you more than once. You can only join GDI if you haven't attacked or done a harmful spy op and cannot leave after joining. In the final six hours of the game, you will not be able to engage in any offensive actions against countries that have not hit you at least once.
According to Slagpit, there is a -10% penalty for attacking gains for people in GDI. A penalty that one cannot find if they look for it in the obvious places - its not in the Earth Empires Wiki that joining GDI means -10% attack gains, and its not in the messages inviting you to join GDI, or the message when you're already in GDI. If you're giving such a major penalty to people in GDI, it should be MUCH easier for people to be aware of the penalty.
