The Rant Refined.

That was a blast!
All the responses I expected and then some.

Who was the party when we got wiped by England?
Who was the party when we got wiped by FYROM?

Coalition or not, MPP's or not we still got wiped.

I'm not 100% against all MPP's, I just act that way.
Answers have been, well that's how the game works!
I'm tired of those answers.

There are MPP's that are strategic to have, and then there's wars worth fighting.
We got into these messes, because of lessons forgotten and silly political maneuvering.

Even though I give numbers and break downs on how I come to conclusions, all to frequently when I do, it's dismissed as not making sense.

I appreciate some of Klop123 input. It did help me evaluate everything.

The question I now ask at what percentage of a countries income would an MPP be considered too expensive?

In night watch, we have executed a co strategy that seemed to have worked.
We are going to track it closer, and flex it a bit better. We had to make it work with limited funds. We will be tracking on a methodical basis as best as we can. Thanks foxfire for experimenting with me.

I was pretty angry when I wrote my last article, but I don't mind throwing a bit of fecal matter around. But, there is a way. I propose we run no resistant wars for 2 more weeks. I know, that's insane, but we need to regroup and build up our funds.

Here are some tips for players who want them:
DIV 1 :
Don't fight at all! Just complete your missions and keep training and working. Feel free to run for congress, and you should. It's 5 gp! Woot! You need those for your training grounds. Only upgrade your L1

and L2


Training Grounds, and only upgrade them when they are on sale (once per month). Use most of your cc's to buy gold off the market when you can.
Train L2 when it's maxxed, and no sooner.

This way, you will always be in profit. Keep doing this until you naturally level up. Div 1 damage is sort of pointless, and fighting at this time makes no sense at all. The energy bars and bazookas that you get from a do can help later on, but in the end, it don't really matter until you are div 2.
The only exception to fighting is if div 4 is winning. In this way we guarantee the round is ours.

Div 2

For the most part, You shouldn't fight until you have your first 2 training grounds maxxed. If they aren't maxxed, than you need to focus on maxxing them out. Early into div 2, it makes no sense at all to go after a battle hero medal, but if you are patient, you should be able to wrack them in.
Div 2 battles can be swing battles, so fight smart. If Div 3 + Div 4 look like they are losing bad, than don't bother wasting your damage. The battle is already lost. Now, div 3 + div 4 may look winnable (I say within 5😵 than fighting is worthwhile. If you don't know how to check that, ask your MU commander.

Above this, div 3+ div 4 players are what matter in battles in this game. It's game mechanics. This game simply structures it that way.

Division 1 : 1 point per battle
Division 2 : 2 points per battle
Division 3 : 3 points per battle
Division 4 : 5 points per battle

All 4 Divisions have to be completed their battle, before the next round is hit.
First side to 94 points wins the campaign.

The most important to win is a div 4. Otherwise, if Div 4 loses, we have to ensure Div 1-3 are won. Not all the time, but a majority of the time. Our goal needs and should be to get to 94 points.

Some of the Chaos, is because of the shotgun approach. I'm hoping there is an underlying plan to this shotgun approach. We did liberate PEI for a short time, but it was short.

There is a faster way than all the pennies in one barrel, but it could be another month under a wipe. Especially since all our funds are drained. Players are the best with their money. Let's keep the treasury lean, and let players especially div 4 players pull their weight. We have no accounting in our gov't, and we need an open funding shared where our funds go. Until then, I go on the books and say we can't have so much taxes go into our coffers.

Any MPP's undertaken must have a reason, and debated amongst the MU leaders.

Once we have open accounting as to where our funds are going and being spent, I'm okay with the taxes being raised again as long as there is a purpose other than fattening up the countries account.

Let's be open and fair.

The wolf howls!

For now, Natster OUT!




A KHAN Arises!
