[UKGov] The NHS Needs Your Help
eUK Home Office
For those who don’t know, the NHS is a Military unit run and funded by the eUK government. It provides 500 wellness and 5 Q6 tanks free every day to every member level 24 and under who actively fights. (If this sounds like something you want to benefit from, sign up by clicking here:
This currently costs about 10,000 GBP every day, which considering the eUK’s tax income is currently about 27,000 GBP per day, this represents a massive proportion of the country’s finances.
When the NHS MU was formed by Jamesw two months ago, the economy - not just in the UK, but worldwide - was much stronger, and we had much more income to spend. However, changes to the game over those two months - Q7 weapons, Airstrikes, Rocket Factories - has reduced the amount of money coming in.
For the last month, Iain Keers has been covering the shortfall in the national account out of his own pocket, and everyone should be immensely grateful for that. However, we’ve now been faced with a choice: Option A, to find another way to pay for this; or Option B: to reduce the amount of support we give to new players.
The NHS is one of the greatest social projects the eUK has ever undertaken. It gets new players staying around, giving us and this game the fresh blood we sorely need. As well as this, keeping our division one players well supplied and armed has allowed the NHS to become the most powerful Div 1 force in this Country, regularly hitting for more D1 influence than any other unit in the UK.
Because of this, the last thing I want to see is the NHS supply reduced. It’ll damage not only our fighting strength, but the future of our citizenry. As such, I’m now calling for any benevolent individuals to give what they can. Food, tanks, and currency to buy both are always much in need, and always gratefully received.
If you feel you can spare anything for the aid of our youngest and neediest players, send whatever you can to Blue And Evil, and it’ll be passed along as part of the NHS supply. We want to keep these supplies going as long as we can, but it can’t be done without your help. We’re not asking anyone to give up anything they can’t afford, just what they can.
Thank you.

You have successfully donated 10 Gold. This amount will appear shortly in the citizen account.
Financial crisis even happen in eRepublik. Because I get supplies instead of money for my work I don't have much money but I give half of my money
"Citizens cannot aquire more than 10 Gold per day through Monetary Market and Donations. Blue And Evil already reached the maximum limit."
Trying to give something back 🙁
If you want to donate, but my storage is full or I've hit the gold limit (Thanks to all the amazing people who've donated so far 😁 ) drop me a PM, and I'll get back to you.
Feed the NHS, feed it what you don't need 😃
Great response so far guys, thanks in advance for the support for our young new players!
Voted!
I still think that lowering the level cap from 25 to 15 would work wonders.
ImPurified; most players who are interested in the game and come back to check regularly can make level 15 within a few days.
When you think that we currently have around 70 players getting NHS supplies at any one time with a cap of 25, reduce the cap to 15 & It'd be a useless program.
The idea is to give players enough time to get to grips but more importantly to be able to save their own money so they can head towards being self sufficient. 2 or 3 days of supplies won't help do that.
voted and donated some GBP
Well done to everyone who's donated, but Wayne's converted me lol, i don't think it's needed much
Donate, we need to keep the newbies.
The eNHS is a good idea in principle, but when the governemnt needs to hand out a begging bowl to fund it, something is seriously wrong.
Voted and will donate asap
Ive 5 magic beans or a shagged out cow
take ya pick
rofl 🙂
The NHS in it's original form was excellent, I even donated towards it. Im not a fan of the NHS MU. The graduates have been ill-informed, not only on game mechanics but also how to set up there accounts to maximise what they have. As I've said before within the NHS MU they are limited, not only in supplies but the most important thing. Game Knowledge! B&E and Emergy as knowledgeable as they are can't help 40 guys! Bring back the old style NHS, let the BEF and private MU's deal with retention
My 2 pence: Keep the NHS MU but stop with the fixed "5x Q6, 500 wellness" deal, it's too rigid to be long term feasible. Provide what the country can afford to provide. Maybe it's 30% of total income split between each participant. If that means you need to drop down to 3 tanks and 300 wellness - so be it. Those who are in need will still appreciate it, those who "can do better elsewhere" will join a different MU freeing up supplies for those who truly need...
@Dan FBC Not sure if you was around for the old style NHS. That handed out food to anybody under level 25. This allowed for members of the NHS to join any other MU they liked . Which IMO was a better way of doing things. Not only were they given the food with which to fight they could earn a wage/supplies greater then the NHS MU could offer. With wages as low as they are atm the NHS MU is a shite deal. RN offers close to market wages as well as 14Q6 or 7Q7 tanks.
I've got a few hundred health I can spare. But I'd argue that the supplies are a little too generous, newbies can expect too much and then feel out on their arse when they enter the big boy world. I know from experience.
