Join the new world

To provide background I recently read an article by a fellow Irish person claiming that one does not make money on your workers anymore.Ok for purposes of comparison I took 4 markets Croatia - 85 IEP, USA - 95 , Serbia - 92 and Ireland - 65.

For the sake of argument we are not going to job hunt across borders. A player will usualy align himself to a player in his own country I have worked for many ears for Nogin and Bhane in the past.

We also trade mostly with our own people so in that sense we need not take into account other regions.

So in Ireland we currently have a 40% bonus on our WRM and Weps. So on Rubber Plantation its 250 * 20 /100 x 2 = 100 total 350 and

Q7 Weps = 10* 20/100 * 2 = 14 WEPS per production.



Looking at this screenshot we can see we get 14 weps per production and spend 2800 WRM.

Actually WRM is now at a high of 0.07 with an effective drop rate of 0.06 and a black market prize commonly of 0.062

So on black market we get: 173 IEP

q7 wEPS is selling at drop prize of 17.18 in the USA.

So 14 x 17.18 = 240.52 IEP.

And this is where the gravy comes in.

240.52 - 173 = 67.52 - 65 = 2.52 iep extra.

So we dont really get an added monetary value to producing the Q7 weps. But atleast we get the workers.

Because essentially our cost is covered by the gravy.

And we get the added flexibility of more Q7 tickets etc.

Another viewpoint. [/b]

If we cu out monetary concerns and ROI concerns and look at the bigger meta game.

Players can take what they make and create MU's
Lets say I have to buy say 500 WEPS a week for our MU. Without factories it costs us : 500 * 17.18 = 8590

Each worker has a production of 14 WEPS but in my case I HAVE 2 extra wam clicks due to havng 2 Q7 Weps factories.

So with 1 Q7 Wep factory my weekly production = 98 WEps
2 Q7 Weps factories = 196

So here we get true monetary value added on because 196 * 17.18 = 3367 IEP minus cost of wrm = 39200 WRM * 0.062 = 2430

so 3367 minus 2430 = 937 added profit .

But as well it cost us to produce 500 weps - 196 = 304 WEPS /14 = 22 work tickets

So lets throw away 1 and say 3 workers working at 65 iep daily x 3 = 195 * 7

= 1365 weekly

So as we see Q7 factories and workers is not necessarily a complete waste.

After all what else are you going to do with the money and gold you make.

And we can also see that we can have a separate WRM production and a slight Q7 production.

Of course each wam click equals 2 xp and u need to cick on 2500 factories to advance a level so perhaps this is not for our zero exp players but for the rest of us it works fine.
