Today the White House Press Corp. wishes to cast a spotlight upon the eUSA forums , which can be located at http://eusaforums.com, to help empower players who may be new, and fragile to the quick moving economic, political and military system within eUSA. eUSA has always been a nation based upon a principle of alturism, and self sacrifice. A nation created proportionally with inventors, businessmen, military heroes, politicans, workers and more. The White House Press Corp believes a increase in the eUSA website usage, can provide a huge step foward in a shattered fractal world, which hangs on by a thread. The United States believes that the forums can boost cooperation, economic stability and military arrangements to make the nation a more powerful place upon the international stage. In the same way the internet and the cloud has broken down restrictions and barriers to a more continuous way of organization, the eUSA forums can provide, if not more, the exact same revolution of organization. The usage of eUSA forums can be used to rejuvenate American military focus and economic platform upon the global stadium.

The eUSA forums feature a wide variety of people, whether it be those famed members from your well established political entity, or notorious military leaders from your local military unit, all who use cutting edge tools on eUSA forums. Upon today's focus on the basis of using eUSA forums, by advertising in such a mass manner, and the large amount of current usage, it is a expected plan to reboost American global power within military and economic stature.

How to Guerrilla Fight
Code-Y


Hi. For those of you who don't know me, I'm Code-Y (Ex-Captain of the elite regiment 😎 ) 😃! Today I want to tell you how I became the #1 guerrilla fighter in America of the day, for the past 2 weeks, and how I plan to become #1 in USA. Before I even start that, let's get 1 thing clear!

Guerrilla fights are the best way to deal insane amounts of damage while consuming the least amount of health! No matter what, win or loss, you'll always do more damage with guerrilla fights, the only difference is, it's a bit more time consuming. This is a 100% fact and if you want to maximize your damage output, you should guerrilla fight as often as possible.



Before the recent update I wasn't really too interested in guerrilla fighting so I didn't fight, I just guerrilla danced (Definition found below).

Now the update makes this strategy useless, because if we lose, we do 100% of our health lost in Q7 Damage + 50% of the opponents health lost. This means that if you do 10k with 1 Q7 hit and lose a guerrilla fight with 0 health and take all your opponents health, then you do 100k dmg + 50k dmg, so 150k! This shows even if you lose guerrilla fights, they're still a worthwhile investment as long as you do damage!

Also if you win, you do 100% of your opponents health lost instead of 50%, a nice little incentive to win 😁!

Now for the moment you've all been waiting for! How do you fucking win these things?

Before you even fight!

It's very simple, first off, always go into battle with a fully loaded clip! That means you need 3 grenades all the time! Your weapon must always have full ammo and you have to have back up weapons (Sniper and Crossbow are best)! I cannot stress this enough because if you fall into a moving loop (Definition found below) and you have less health, then you're fucked! I also suggest a storm rifle as your primary weapon of choice because it has the biggest usable range (350 - 800) it's good to go, and it also has the most ammo and a good amount of damage! Also in terms of total damage per game, it wins by far. (8 dmg/turn and 5 hits before reload is needed. The only weapon close to this damage output is the crossbow which does 7 dmg/turn due to the fact you have to reload it every turn).

Strategy Guide

Now that you know the necessities of going into a guerrilla fight, I'll tell you how to win! First off, this requires a lot of practice and common sense. I'm not going to walk you through every step but here are some general tips

Shoot First & keep shooting!
If you spawn, no matter what you'll be between the ranges of 300 and 750, if you have that storm rifle, you better fucking shoot! No matter what, first turn with a storm rifle, you should shoot! If your enemy has a weapon better suited for the range, aka a sniper at 700 or a uzi and 300, you still shoot until you start missing. The second you start missing you should move to a more appropriate range and continue.

Reserve your grenades
Grenades should only be used when you know you can make your opponent miss! This means unless your opponent is at a bad range and taking shots, you shouldn't use your grenade. Grenades lower your opponents shot chance by 30%, if you used this when your opponent has an 80% chance, then boom, 50%, he's not likely to hit you! But if you use it after your opponent has 90% and done 3-4 shots in a row that hit, then it's a waste. (The more shots you land in a row, the less likely you are to miss). And above all else, no matter what, never use your last grenade until the last turn or the 2nd last turn. That's the game changing grenade and should be reserved.

In times of hardship, think ahead.
Sometimes, you'll find an opponent who's just smarter than you. Every time you throw a grenade he moves, every hit you make, he blocks. In these situations you have to start thinking, this guys pretty good, now what will he not expect? If for instance you've been lured into 300 range with a storm rifle and you see him with an uzi, you DO NOT want to throw your grenade, instead, in this situtation, he's going to anticipate you moving backwards, this is where you pull the mind fuck and move forwards. This is good because uzi's have terrible close range, as a matter of fact they have an incredibly tiny range and if you move out of the range, you're very unlikely to get hit, this also puts you at a better oppurtunity because if the opponent doesn't move, then you pull out your crossbow and shoot 'em at 80 range! Basically, this tip is saying don't think there's only 1 option, you always have more than 1 option, so utilize it!

Free Reload?
If you're in a losing situation where every health counts and you and your opponent are both using the same weapon, a strategy to get a free reload with out risking health loss is before you reload, move closer to your enemy, (Farther sometimes works, but it's less reliable for Uzis/snipers/rifles because they have good long range percentages). This method will make your opponent have to move back to get back into a good range and while they're moving back you reload! If your opponent doesn't move back, then either way you're better off because your opponent is way more likely to miss and you can use your grenades to mess with 'em!

Deal Damage!
No matter what, you should never accept defeat. You should always focus on doing damage! Even if you lose, remember, you do damage based on how much health your opponent loses, so trust me, you want to damage your opponent as much as possible! You never know, they might go on a losing streak and you could win 🙂!

Don't get too mad!
They say save the best for last. One thing you should know going into a guerrilla fight is it's all random. No matter what, you never get a guaranteed miss, there is no 100% way to always win. Never be too cocky because that guy with 20 wins and 30 losses might be learning, and never be too pessimistic because that guy with 300 wins and 120 losses may not be paying attention! Above all else, you're going to miss those 90% shots, your opponent will somtimes make that 30% shot 4 times in a row! It happens and it's best to keep a cool head and wipe off your losses, trust me, I'm a professional ^_~.

Definitions/Terms

Guerrilla Dance: An obsolete method that is no longer viable in the game where 2 opponents move back and forth to maximize damage without taking away health from each other. It's no longer viable because the influence is now calculated differently.

Moving Loop: Where neither fighter is at a good distance to shoot and so they both move at the same time, and continue to do so. This can go on for an endless amount of time if the fighters move the exact same distance and the person with less health typically has to break this loop by changing weapons or taking the bad shot.[/center]

PS. If I get any feedback/questions, I may add more to this little guide :d. Enjoy o7.

What it means to be a Congress Member
ReSoul


Interested in getting involved in eRepublik politics? A usual first stop for trying to get involved is getting into congress. For a moment, lets stop and ask- what the heck does a congress member even do on eRepublik? Well, lets take a look!

There are two main parts of being a congress member on eRepublik. The first being in-game mechanics, and the second being the out-of-game mechanics (such as forums and IRC). Today I will be teaching you specifically about the in-game mechanics available to you after becoming a member of congress; which are all pretty much conveniently located under one handy-dandy little tab called, "Administration"- displayed below.



To reach this tab you are going to go to look at the array of blue bars you have at the top of your screen upon starting up eRepublik, and proceed to the community tab, hover over this- and select the "My Country" tab- which is the first to pop up under the community tab itself. Picture shown below.



From there you will find your administration tab. Now what is there to do on this administration tab? Well this is where you meet your new month-long life partner called, "Propose a Law", who is shown below.



Through this tab you can do an array of things. Lets quickly review what these things are.



Donate: allows you to transfer some government funds to a person or organization. This is commonly used as organized to transfer money from the National Reserves to the Congressional Budget Office.

Issue Money: A tool used to convert gold reserves into Common Currency.

VAT & Import Taxes: These proposals are used to adjust the Value Added Taxes and the Import Taxes.

Work Tax: This proposal allows you to propose a change in the national work tax. IE: every time you hit that "work" button, how much the government keeps.

Minimum Wage: To create the legal minimum wage. This is used to make sure no one is paying their employees too little. No job pay listing can be posted behind the amount agreed upon through this proposal.

President Impeachment: Self-explanatory, this is what you press when you think your president is doing an awful job and you want a new one. 🙂

Provide citizenship: Many immigration requests are received in eUSA. This is where you go to provide citizenship to pre-approved immigrants.- Or anyone of your choice if you feel like going rogue 😉

Natural Enemy: The horn of war! This is here to propose another nation as your nation's natural enemy as to receive an influence bonus in every battle you fight against them.

A few things to note however are that for one, you will rarely ever look at this list or do anything with it. All actions here MUST be pre-approved through the respective organizations or discussed beforehand with the rest of the eUSA congress. To do anything here without pre-discussion/approval would lead to its rejection as a law, and likely to you being censured for the rest of your congressional term.

I certainly hope that this has helped to explain some of the basic things new/prospective congress members get access to, and thank you for reading!



Mercenary Medal
Dave Gulya


Have you got one of these on your Achievements Shelf?

I don’t. But I did a little research on it. It is called the Mercenary Medal.
I talked to a few of the great soldiers that the eUS has about this.

I found out that cosimaStar has 151 of them.


My IRC friend CuppyCakeYums only has one.


I looked it up and saw that tsewell who is #1 Top Citizen with 1,134,192 Experience Points has 31 of them.


Gnilraps who was recently Country President and is the #2 Top Citizen of All Time has 24 of them.

Just for giggles, I checked out a few more well know people.

Current POTUS, Molly Emma has a dozen,


dmjohnston, Secretary of Defense and recently announced POTUS Candidate has 2,


John Largo my brother AMPer and Big Time Tank also has 2.



Super Soldier jaywalker71 with an impressive 89,807 Strength points has 15.


All time Top Guerrilla fighter pogonici has 1,187 Guerrilla Fight wins and 25 Mercenary Medals.

The biggest this I found out about this little medal?
It takes some work to receive one.
In order to get a Mercenary Medal, you need to fight 25 enemies in 50 different countries.

War Map and Update
TheHandyMan



#1 BALKAN-Croatia is still in war with Serbia. They moved battles in Bosnia. Croatia is gaining valuable time which means more money from whole taxes, while Serbia is loosing resources and money invested in war. If this war continues in next month, I think that we can see long-term NAP between these 2. Serbia has not be able to move outside Balkan (in Italy) for months.
Bosnia is not even strong enough to fight Montenegro...

#2 BRAZIL-They have two battles opened. They will probably win Paraguay, but they are not strong enough to face Argentina (and they want to keep good relations with them, other words they want to make Argentina to let them have some of original regions).
We see Chile is still very strong, maybe they will face Argentina soon?

#3 UK is still under occupation of both Canada and Argentina. UK is not strong in influence, they just have excellent diplomacy. That diplomacy put them in Sirius.
While Sirius is bussy at Cro-Ser and Pol-Arg wars, I dont see that UK will get any help from allies soon. Maybe Poland will strike Argentina in UK, when and if they are able to get them out of the Spain.
It is simple, Poland is in better relations with Spain.
However, seing Britain with only 2 regions is alarming for Sirius.

#4-Colombia vs.Mexico. Can Mexico delete Colombia? It will be very hard task for them. They are not doing well in those 2 battles.
This is directly Sirius vs.Asteria battle. It will be interesting can one of these 2 countries join triangle of strong countries being based in the Americas (USA-Chile-Argentina).
By the current state of things, Colombia has medium edge over Mexico...

#5-Bulgaria vs.Others. They obviously let go battles vs. Georgia and Ukraine and are now focusing on battle vs. Romania.
This brings lots of questions to us:
-Has Bulgaria made a lot of money while having NAP with Romania, and are they now trying to force better NAP with them ?
-Is it possible that Romania gets deleted ?
I can give short question on second question. While Argentina and Serbia are in big wars, I dont see divided Greece, selfish (?) China and weak Slovenia helping them in this war. This might just be one important war, where lots of demage will be used in.
#6-Get ready for Turkey-Hungary war soon. Bets are on !
#7-Again, I hope you understood myenglish 🙂
