About Training Grounds

Hi kids!

I have been tricked into writing an article about the current Training Grounds upgrade special thingy. As you can see I'm late, little over a day and a half left. My schedule prevented me from doing this any sooner so my apologies. My wish is that this info will help someone to enjoy eRep a bit more by being able to do a bit more.

The Most Important Thing

Never upgrade unless there is a special! D'oh!

Always, ALWAYS, A-L-W-A-Y-S upgrade your Weights Room (the free one) before doing anything else in eRep. The reason is super simple, TO MAKE MORE GOLD! If you intend to play eRep for very long why not be richer? If you do not upgrade Weights Room first you only cheat yourself.

With all this extra gold it will become easier to upgrade needed items. Do not spend precious gold on Energy Bars or :gag: First Aid Kit. These items really suck... all the gold out of your account for little benefit.

Only suckers like me that buy gold should consider such things.

Next Steps

I won't go into detail but I do wish to say that what you do next is very important. There are some necessities that we all need like food and weapons. The weapons are simple, join a Military Unit that gives out supplies for working in their commune. Do not forget the 10 Q7's for fighting MoD orders (click Battle Orders category under Top News on Homepage). Food can be had by commenting on SWIDAH articles. (Again, look in Top News.)

Also it is important to supply your own food. New players should have at least a Q3 food factory and enough Food Raw Materials companies to supply that factory. This way you will never be without food.

To Finish Up

The Climbing Center (0.19 cost) is important to upgrade once the previous things are accomplished. It will not gain you a great amount of gold but will provide added strength. (This becomes important rather quickly as fighting is what eRep is all about.) I would add that it is best not to use the Climbing Center until Q4 as that would actually decrease your gold income.

Also do not use Training Contracts until all four Training Grounds are at Q4. Then use the 90% to save a little gold. (Yes, I am cheap!)

Good luck for everyone! Enjoy the game but even better ENJOY EACH OTHER!

"New players should have at least a Q3 food factory and enough Food Raw Materials companies to supply that factory."

If you insist on food production, I'd recommend building 2 Q2 companies instead of 1 Q3 - costs 6.5 gold less and yields 200-400 health more per day, depending on the bonuses.

You are correct. I tend to look at the long range benefits. Of course there is no real sales potential for food so the only real concern is the economization of energy. This doesn't become a real factor until you have almost 100 companies to WaM. 😃

Still, in the long run I like my Q5 food. It is orderly and "even". Yes I have mild OCD.

Yes you are both right in your own way.

All true!

Thedillpickl Day 2,039, 19:44

No it isn't! xD

Rican Day 2,039, 23:54

oh... i must have been mistaken. xD

Thedillpickl Day 2,040, 09:57

Yes it was, I fixed it to shame you!

Always check the Top News on your Home Page.
There is important and interesting stuff there (except articles from the PTOer The Troll Warlord).

Ramiro Dezval Day 2,039, 17:55

i just have FREE and 0,19 at Q4, and i earn some 3 golds each week, :notba😛

Thedillpickl Day 2,039, 19:49

You are maximizing your gold intake. Save all that gold to upgrade weapon and food factories. Concentrating on only one of each will get you higher Q to use. 🙂 Self supply your RM's and there will always be profit.

Finally work to upgrade last two TG's to Q4 and maybe buy a Q2 rocket factory. Now is when eRep pays off with a little fun.
