Wargame Costs [SOL v PEACE]

Day 622, 15:11 Published in Ireland Ireland by Sean Power

There seems to be an ideological bias in some peoples attitude towards which wargames we join in the future so I just wanted to point out the costs.

Initial Cost (including first 7 battles)


PEACE wargames = 90 gold
SOL wargames = 127 gold (107 if cost of MPP is shared equally)

Cost of 7 Battles
PEACE wargames = 30 gold

SOL wargames
= 77 gold (current participants + eIreland)
= 64 gold (if eIreland + 1 other country join)
= 55 gold (if eIreland + 2 other countries join)
= 48 gold (if eIreland + 3 other countries join)
= 43 gold (if eIreland + 4 other countries join)
= 38.5 g (if eIreland + 5 other countries join)
= 35 gold (if eIreland + 6 other countries join)

We would need 9 countries including ourselves to join for the SOL option to be as cheap as the PEACE option.

How much more expensive are the SOL wargames?
current participants + eIreland = 156% more expensive than PEACE wargames
if eIreland + 1 other country join = 113% more expensive
if eIreland + 2 other countries join = 83% more expensive
if eIreland + 3 other countries join = 60% more expensive
if eIreland + 4 other countries join = 43% more expensive
if eIreland + 5 other countries join = 28% more expensive
if eIreland + 6 other countries join = 15% more expensive

For those worried about the impact of joining PEACE wargames listen to what your MoFA said here and shown below- http://e-ireland.isgreat.org/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=100

"But what does this mean for our neutrality?
Absolutely nothing. We have not Joined PEACE. We are merely thinking about joining their wargames and I will assure the Americans that we are firmly neutral and have no lenience toward PEACE what so ever"
