[DoD] Announcement: New USAF Program
USA Department of Defense
The Department of Defense and United States Armed Forces senior leadership have been working over the last few days on a new initiative designed to assist new players in early strength building. It is the belief of the DoD that effective new citizens should focus on upgrading their training grounds and holding fights to minimize early leveling.
In the current divisional system of combat, while the divisions have been restructured, holding is still the most effective way to make yourself more potent on the battlefield down the line. However, in a game designed around combat, months of holding can make new players weary and leave the game.
The Department of Defense Strength Enhancement Program (DoDSEP) is designed to speed up the process of upgrading free training grounds for new USAF troops who work in USAF communes. Through small earnings on a daily basis, accounted for by USAF, amounting to a larger disbursement on a bi-weekly interval, our goal is to cut the time to full Free Training Ground upgrade, ideally by 20%.
DoDSEP will be made a reality by the following changes to USAF policy, effective July 1st:
1. D1 supply drops will be reduced from 6 tanks per drop to 4 per drop.
2. D2 supply drops for soldiers under level 45 will also be reduced from 6 tanks per drop to 4 per drop.
3. D2 soldiers with over 35k Q7 hit will retain their “Strong” status and increased drops regardless of level.
5. After 2 weeks time, soldiers who have requested supplies (and DoDSEP funding, which happens automatically on their first request of the day) on at least 70% of days will receive a lump sum of all their earnings from the prior two weeks.
These lump sum payments with an activity threshold will drive down the overall cost of the program, while providing vital gold to the members of USAF to expedite their training enhancement and make them stronger on the battlefield.
Soldiers who combine DoDSEP with BU2SU will be particularly well prepared for the Battlefield, and we encourage soldiers to use all available programs to increase their strength. We also remind all participating soldiers to only purchase training grounds upgrades during sales (usually occurring on the first Tuesday of each month) and to always fully upgrade their Free Training Ground before upgrading any others. Additionally, gold should not be spent on higher quality training grounds while saving for upgrades.
This is the DoD reminding you to play smart, save gold, and fight harder.
Keep up the fire.

These are the type of programs I'm happy to see our government and MU's implementing.

Wise training is wise. This should be a requirement for everyone! 🙂

I am a new player, how do I apply for DOD SEP benefits, pls ?
thank you,
player nbr 8446771
It's a program targeted at USAF members only, so you'd need to join USAF to participate.
k, thx !
I'm a USAF member but I'm still confused on how I should apply for DODSEP. Help? I'm new to this game.

You are dropping the ability to stockpile Daily Order rewards in favour of Strength Training? You do realise that all they are going to do is start selling gold for guns to get their 25 daily kills. If new players strictly stick to DO + Training and put every cent into getting the first 2 TG at level 4 before Level 24 and TG3 at level 4 before they leave D1, then their energy bar and bazooka stockpiles will guarantee a string of BH before they exit D1 to pay for that TG4 at level 4 early in D2.
You need both, not one or the other.
A maximum of 8 tanks a day is enough for the 25 kills needed for the DO. That's 80 hits so an average of 3.2 hits per kill which is normal with a Q7 weapon in their hands.
This /is/ both.
Au contra-ire mon ami,: "
1. D1 supply drops will be reduced from 6 tanks per drop to 4 per drop.
2. D2 supply drops for soldiers under level 45 will also be reduced from 6 tanks per drop to 4 per drop."
Not my words. Nowhere do they mention that there are more than one drop per day, but it may be inferred with some reading between the lines. 7q7 is sufficient for DO in my experience. I calculated an average is closer to 2.6 hits per kill, but I won't quibble over 8q7.
Even if there is more than one drop... why would you want people top break up their DO over two drops?

As a person who supplies for D1, last time I looked there were only about 10 or 12 people who regularly request supplies, and a similar amount who do it about 50-75% of the time.
Frankly, USAF D1 is no longer worth it. D2 is even worse off now. 8 guns a day? I cant even get through my food fights each day with that low number. You cant possibly use all of your food fights with 6 Guns, now you can use even less.
Looks like EZC D1/2 will be getting even stronger over the next few weeks.
It's not smart to use all your food fights, that's the point. We're trying to build stronger soldiers instead of stuffing tanks down their throats.
Also, max regular supplies, assuming 75+ kills, for EZC is 75cc, plus regular market wage, so let's say 100cc. D1 in USAF gets a max of 8 tanks under this program (about 80+ cc) plus 45cc worth of gold.
I guess new players have to decide if they want to be strong in the end and do bigger damage in D3 (USAF model) or get all the tanks they want to do lots of fighting now so they rank up fast and then are weaker than the USAF players.
What's EZC?

Good one 🙂
