War Games with Mexico start tonight!

Dear Loyal Citizens of the eUnited State of America
The time is upon us to institute the long awaited and overdue WAR GAMES!
The treaty has been signed, details ironed out, and we ready to get these started..
You will notice a battle open up today at 15:00 eRep server time (or 6pm EST) by the eUSA against eMexico in Baja. This battle should not last long as eMexico will retreat. We will then be in possession of Baja and can commence the war games after that.
At this time, the War Games are scheduled to start at 17:00 eRep server time (8pm EST) Monday evening. If everything goes well, this will be repeated on Wednesday and Friday at approximately the same times. This will allow you to fight and use the hospital each and every day. You will have to fight in the night on the first night and in the morning, afternoon, or late afternoon on the second day. Rinse, Repeat for the following two battles. This should allow everyone to have 5 fights a day Monday through Saturday.
This first week of war games has been labeled as basic training for our citizens. No weapons will be provided through the armed services at this time. It is contemplated that this will change for the following weeks, but that will be up to congress, the military leaders, and whoever is elected president next week (Feel free to vote for Scrabman, I hear he will do an awesome job). In that same token I want to direct you to an article by the Commander of our eMarines, Eugene Harlot, that explains how to fight.

We have a limited time to conduct these games (until early May), as outlined in the Treaty. Therefore, we are attempting to maximize the number of fights we get in, and it would be my proposition to have these run every other day for the duration of our treaty. We had to pay a fee to get these games, lets make sure its worth it!
To all citizens, young and ol😛
It is important to utilize these to increase your wellness. Your country counts on your increased productivity as well as your employer. Remember, both Florida and NJ have a Q5 hospital. These allow you to maximize your fights and wellness. Please read the article by Eugene Harlot and learn how to effectively fight for the eUSA and maximize your wellness. It is important to make sure you end the day with between 90-100 wellness. You do not help your country or yourself by fighting on the same day AFTER using a hospital.
In addition, you will have the option to fight for either side. Make sure you fight for the defender, not for the resistance. This will ensure we keep these games on schedule.
Lastly, keep an eye out for articles by my Secretary of Defense Moishe. He may have additional information that will help you to understand what is happening in our fighting. Also, Moishe has been working on some incentive programs to reward effective fighting with prizes. Please keep check his page out.

HELL YEAH! FIRST TOO LOL
p.s can anyone throw a moving ticket my way lol? I'm still in Michigan since running for Congress, and I happen to be broke.
WOOT!!! I need to gain some rank
How about a contest to decide who will get the Resistance War hero medal?
A great opportunity!
I'll get the medal for the resistance.
Lets get ready. Buy those guns and train train train!
awesome!!!! thanks for letting me everyone know i wouldnt have known otherwise... this will be my first battle and i cant wait
I think that the Hero medal is prize enough. Moishe had some ideas about rewarding units of soldiers who attack on a time table and other such ideas. I will let him explain those as they are brilliant.
Sweet! Now if we could only get the national guard to pull their thumbs from their asses.
YEAAAAAAAAAAAAA !!!!! HAIL PRESIDENT SCRABMAN !!!!
VOTE SCRABMAN VOTE SCRABMAN
good stuff :3
I'd warn people to NOT spend too much money on weapons during this time. If I recall one of our downfalls during the initial invasion was we burnt through ALL our weapons in the first 3 battles even though we faced no resistance :/
Most people should fight barehanded for this as to not weaken our weapon markets again
Take contact with your largest armory dealers to provide supplys. The wargame is waste of money if people fight barehanded.
yay! go scrabman!
Wait. dont they start tommorrow if the RW starts Monday? 😛
Push the Green button ya'll. Joe btw. voted from Germany
Is there any way people can be supplied with weapons? I just hit level 4 strength and want to rip shit up.
Great stuff Scrab! You are America's true Uncle Sam 🙂
@Chisholm - This is not a real war, this is a planned training exercise. I would be concerned about the weapons market and over-using weapons if we were planning a campaign to take several regions.
What we are doing here is focused at getting the most experience, wellness, productivity and rank as we can during a finite period. Citizens should use weapons to do the most amount of damage as they can afford to increase their in-game rank so they can do more damage in the event of a true conflict in the future.
"Now if we could only get the national guard to pull their thumbs from their asses."
Didn't know we had them there.
Thanks for the heads up though.

Vote up the Basic War-Fighting Article. We need n00bs to know how to fight BEFORE the battle begins.
I can't wait cuz I need to raise my wellness!
Hari, what exactly is wrong wit hthe NG, I am a lieutenant within the NG. Its only used to train new citizens looking to become soldiers what more do you want from us.
This is nice, but I wish it started later on, after the deployed get back from Germany, so we could jump in at the start.
Oh well. 🙂
@panther: *shrug* Ask Fuschino.
Fuschino - your remark is not appreciated. If youi have an issue, take it up with NG command.
Good thing I just got that five gold! My first battle! Now I get to actually participate instead of going to the battle page and watching the tanks rack up points!
Awesome!! And my favorite part? It was all put together through diplomacy. Excellent step Commander and Chief.
"Awesome!! And my favorite part? It was all put together through diplomacy. Excellent step Commander and Chief."
Thank you. I have to give a good share of the credit to Publius while he was Secretary of State and to Inwegen the current Secretary of State. But this is going to work and it was something that I promised upon taking the Presidency last week.
My hope is to start funding citizens and lower military to train in week 2 of these War Games and not spending all of our money on Tanks. This will require cooperation with the military and Congress but it is my hope to get it done.
Delivering on promises = win!
What are the times exactly? Like the Schedule? Because the paper was kind of confusing
YAY.
Voted.
So the American taxpayer is now paying for a Q5 hospital for Mexico?
Screw that, you guys should have gone for wargames + region swap with Canada.
Job well done, Scrabman! Impressive!
yeyyyy 🙂
Sweet my first "Conflict" though I'm not liking getting the message "Weak fight Private" 😛
RWAR! 🙂
woot!
Thank You. This really helped me. I'm a 40 day newb and I slaughtered myself naively 3 times in my first battle against Mexico-I'm still recovering from that but things are making much more sense to me to this go round.
E PLURIBIS UNIM
Shopman
Yeah more constructed war games!
Scrab,
Great idea and all buddy, but seriously...What are you doing?
Yes, this is beneficial for us, but it's by FAR more beneficial for PEACE. With all the MPPs still standing, you're giving 8 PEACE/Non-Atlantis countries a free training ground as well. It's completely counterproductive.
nice idea its always great giving all those other countries free fights
The US attacked Baja more than one hour ago, and Mexico has still not retreated, giving a lot of free xp to 9 Peace nations, *on top of the Q5 hospital you gave them*.
Unfortunately there is no specification on when exactly Mexico has to retreat in the contract, so there is no breach.
omg, i need a ticket, and im broke, this sux!
gah I needs me a gift to get my wellness up to fight !
The first battle is closed. The War Games will continue tomorrow evening at 17:00 server time.
And for you naysayers talking about giving PEACE free training ... this isn't about PEACE, this is about giving my citizens a chance to train and get the benefits of combat experience.
Oh, and everything went exactly as planned today. Great job everyone!
HELL YEAH!
Take that Mexico
Watch, now we are going to actually invade them, and try to wipe them off the face of the world.
