A quick update on the War Games, they have sort of been sidetracked for a little bit until EZC figures out what to do with its regiments. The new Military module with the 4 new divisions adds a lot to the game and forces new ideas on how to organize a military unit. Gnilraps, the CO of EZC will be releasing info soon on what EZC will be doing in a response to the changes in the game, shortly after that we will figure out a way to run the War Games and then set them up. I will have a more thorough article later on but I might as well start fundraising since the War Games would be nothing without the help of people donating some stuff to a prize pool. So if you want to help just send me a message and we can talk from there. Thanks.

In other quick headlines, things are very similar to what they were before. Poland still winning a lot, Markets staying steady, Gold still going up, Congress still not doing much, Canada still being stupid, Brazil still mad at Terra (they have now left), and thousands of people continue to click fight over and over and over and over again!


Let’s take a look at the map, shall we?

In Europe, Spain continued its dominance of Portugal pushing them to just one territory. Ever since China was kicked out of Europe Portugal has struggled in their endless war with Spain. And as long as the US and Spain have an agreement together Portugal is kind of on their own.


Where is Portugal and what happened to France? Poland continues its stretch across Europe

Things have been going great for Poland as well, as they have continued to win war after war even when they have several going on at once. The Polish seem to be the class of eRep right now taking on Germany, the US and France (with a couple resistance wars from other countries for good measure) at the same time and are still winning . . . France is now wiped off the map France is now down to one region thanks to a very recent resistance war victory. Something probably has to be done soon before Poland looks at crossing the Atlantic and taking on the US in our homeland.

The potential war between Canada (who really wants to be involved in their own war so that their citizens can gain some True Patriot medals) and Ireland sort of fizzled out and nothing ever happened, though there is increasing talk about Canada and the US going at it. It appears the Canadian government has gone crazy (maybe they are on bath salts or something) and is just really bored and wants to troll or something, who knows what will happen.

Although China was kicked out of Europe, they still remain strong controlling most of Pakistan and North Korea like they have done for a while. Indonesia’s journey into South America seems to be coming to an end soon since Brazil has stepped in and started to take regions from them. And New Zealand, after being kicked out of their own regions on the map by Argentina and Australia, have packed up everything and moved in a region in South America.


We had some interesting Party Presidential elections recently. Normally these elections are kind of boring as most parties hold primaries that decide who the Party President will be and then on election day most of the members of a party vote for the person who won the Primary.

However, in the new RLC party things got very interesting. Right before the election, the old republican party decided to merge into the old USMJ party, this was done for a couple reason but the main reason (as stated by Chickensguys, the leader of the old USMJ party at the time) was to get Glove more votes in the next Country Presidential Elections. In order to agree to a merge though the party name had to change and hence the new Republican Liberty Caucus party. And they started off with a bang, moving from 5th place to 3rd place fairly quickly, jumping both Inci and the Feds in the process.

But that's not what caused things to get heated. Words were said, lies were told, truths were stretched, someone's mom was called fat, someone else's mom was apparently #$%@&, though im not sure if she liked it. Dutch Marley won the RLC PP, even with the Feds making an attempt to get Dennis McVicker into PP, an attempt that no other party wanted to help with, and after a while the Feds sort of gave up realizing it would take a miracle for the Feds to pull off this ATO (or PTO depending on what side your side on) attempt alone. So, now General Cartman Lee is now in a top 3 party, and apparently Glove has more than enough votes (even without the Feds) for the next CP election. We will have to wait and see what happens.

But before all of that happens, we have Congressional elections coming up fairly soon. Shortly you will start to see articles flying everywhere about people running for congress in certain states territories. Let the actually fun campaign season of eRep begin!


I honestly don’t know how to explain what's been going on lately in the economic module of eRep. It appears that the economic module has hit rock bottom as for a little over a week prices on Food, Weapons, Raw Materials and Wages have barely fluctuated at all.

But, the one thing that makes no f#$@ing sense at all is Gold. Although the admins recently introduced a new military module into the game that brought an influx of gold into the game. As stated before, the old War Module gave a maximum of 160 gold per war to the players in the game (if the war lasted 15 rounds) while the new war module gives the players up to 420 gold per war (if it lasts 15 rounds). With how many wars occur in this game, the influx should have easily been several thousand gold, which based on the laws of supply and demand should have brought the price of gold way down.

Instead, the price of gold continues to steadily rise. I can’t explain why because it’s unexplainable. Either the influx of gold has caused people to use even more gold than before (though I have not been seeing that, people are getting gold easier but also holding on to it) or the admins are fucking with us have something going on that we can’t see that’s keeping the price of gold artificially high.


This week I want to introduce some people to a very good newspaper that does a very thorough market analysis. Written by Wilhem Klink, the 1600 Index has excellent information and lots of good analysis and is worth a couple minutes of your time per week to look through and get a good sense of what’s going on in the Markets.

Every week I will be doing a giveaway to one of my subscribers and for this week the winner is Abdelz who wins 50 Q6 Tanks.

Each week I will be doing this, prizes will change from week to week depending on what I have in my storage (may be weapons, food, gold, usd or a combination), and all you have to do to win is be a subscriber! Unfortunately the game does not allow us to see who our subscribers are so I am doing my best to make a list of subscribers. If you do subscribe just say something in the comments below, if you have said something about subscribing to my paper in the past then you are on the list. But if you clicked subscribe and did not say anything there is no way for me to know, so feel free to say something below.
