Our Mission

Humanitarian Action in Crisis Zones

The International Development & Aid Project (IDAP) is a non-governmental organisation operating on the island of Altis. Founded in the Netherlands, we've been running operations on this island since before most of the current population arrived. We know the roads, the routes, and the people.

Our work on Altis covers supply runs across all four cities — Kavala, Athira, Pyrgos, and Sofia — medical resupply to Kavala Hospital, secure financial operations at banking facilities from branch vaults to the Royal Mint, mine clearance in the highlands, and community health outreach. Since REIMAGINE, every run location randomises on restart. Licences aren't even required anymore — the barrier to entry has never been lower, and neither has the average solo runner's life expectancy. We adapt fast, document everything, and NBAT provides the escort.

We work with APC, we work with NHS, and we actively campaign against HATO. Our documents are verifiable, our personnel are identifiable, and our convoys are legitimate. If you get stopped — show them this website.

Altis is a dangerous place. Rebels hit convoys. Runs get ambushed. Banks get contested. IDAP and NBAT exist to bring order, structure, and legitimacy to the chaos. We don't take sides — except against HATO.

Core Principles

01 Humanity — Alleviating human suffering wherever it is found
02 Neutrality — Taking no side in hostilities or controversy
03 Impartiality — Aid is delivered based on need alone
04 Independence — Autonomous from political, military, or economic agendas
05 Accountability — Transparent operations, governance, and financial reporting

Partnership

Why IDAP Needed NBAT

When IDAP first deployed to Altis, we attempted to run humanitarian operations the traditional way — unarmed convoys, branded vehicles, goodwill, and the assumption that displaying an NGO emblem would protect us. It didn't.

Our convoys were robbed. Our supplies were stolen. Our personnel were held hostage. Solo IDAP trucks became the easiest targets on the highway because everyone knew they were carrying valuable cargo and nobody was going to shoot back. We lost three full medical resupply convoys in our first month. HATO watched it happen from their checkpoints and did nothing — unless you count stopping us afterwards to check our paperwork.

That's when IDAP's executive board — led by Russie — made the decision that changed everything: partner with NBAT. The Northern Battalion brought what IDAP lacked: armed escort, convoy discipline, route dominance, and a reputation that made people think twice before approaching an IDAP-branded truck. Within weeks, convoy losses dropped to zero. Not reduced — zero.

Some people on Altis say NBAT is too aggressive. That they use too much force. That five armed operators for one cargo truck is overkill. IDAP's position is clear: after losing three convoys to rebels who faced zero resistance, we will never be unprotected again. NBAT's force posture isn't excessive — it's the reason our humanitarian operations still exist.

What NBAT Provides

Armed convoy escort on all Altis routes
Secure financial logistics and bank operations
Route dominance across Kavala-Athira-Pyrgos-Sofia
Civilian Asset Redistribution (supplementary funding)
Intelligence network and forward reconnaissance
40 active personnel — 14 online at once is all we're allowed. It's also all we need
A reputation that prevents attacks before they start

Assessment

The Problem With Altis

Altis is not a normal operating environment. Understanding why requires understanding how the island actually works.

The Economy Is Built on Runs

Everything on Altis runs on the gathering-processing-trading chain. Since REIMAGINE, every location randomises on restart — gatherers, processors, traders, all of it. Licences aren't even required anymore. Which means every restart, every solo runner on the island is stumbling around the map looking for the new spots, exposed and predictable. NBAT has them scouted before most people have left Kavala. That's not a boast, it's a geographical fact that 247 solo runners learned the hard way this quarter.

Kavala Is the Only Safe Zone

The entire island has one Green Zone — Kavala. Single-initiation only — you can start something with one person, but it doesn't extend to their whole organisation. Armed vehicles banned. Weapons holstered. It's civilised, by Altis standards. Outside those boundaries, there are no rules that protect you from being initiated on, robbed, or worse. This is why IDAP stages all operations from Kavala and why every NBAT convoy launches from the Green Zone. Once you leave, your safety depends on how many friends you brought. NBAT always brings enough.

Nobody Helps Solo Runners

APC can't be everywhere. NHS revives you after the fact. HATO makes things worse. And every rebel gang on the island sees a solo truck as a free payday. IDAP tried to change this by running documented, branded convoys — but documentation doesn't stop bullets. NBAT does. That's the reality of humanitarian operations on Altis: good intentions need armed backup.

Banks Are Contested Territory

IDAP's financial logistics operations require access to banking facilities across Altis — from modest branch vaults to the Royal Mint itself. When the drill goes in, a purple zone locks the area down: just us and APC. Twenty minutes per vault. Once the assets are out, it goes blue — and then it's open season. You need 10 police on-island before the operation even begins, and you need a team that won't panic when things escalate. Other groups try banks. NBAT plans them, executes them, and walks out with the money bags. Every time.

HATO Makes Everything Harder

The one agency that should make roads safer actively makes them worse. HATO checkpoints delay humanitarian convoys, their officers can't read documentation, and their management refuses to coordinate. IDAP has documented 14 incidents in one quarter alone. Meanwhile, APC — the actual law enforcement — cooperates perfectly. The contrast is damning and extensively documented.

Reputation Is Everything

On Altis, people don't read your documents — they read your name. When NBAT's tag appears on the highway, most solo runners pull over before they're even asked. That reputation wasn't given — it was earned through 247 interceptions, zero failed convoy defences, and a force deployment policy that treats every situation as if it could be the big one. Fear is the most efficient humanitarian tool on this island.

Our Emblem

The IDAP Symbol

The IDAP emblem features two clasped hands — a symbol of help, cooperation, and relief. The wings represent the speed and reach of our humanitarian response, while the shield conveys protection and security for the communities we serve.

The distinctive orange colour ensures high visibility in conflict zones and disaster areas, making our personnel and vehicles immediately identifiable to both civilians and armed forces.
