Greetings, citizens of eNetherlands
just as the last week, another round of subsidies from The Flying Dutchman initiative is incoming. For the second week, we have received the funding from the Plato Foundation! We would like to thank them for their contribution and for recognizing our project
🙂!
The rules for the entire initiative can be found here.

I became level 700 and recently Legend VII. Where can I apply for the rewards for that? 😃
Congratulations! I do agree we do need to help anyone and not just Air Fighters, but this program happens to focus on that specifically. What do you propose for excellent land fighters like yourself?
Every legend rank 10k cc (maybe more?)
Every 100 levels.... nothing 😃 you get plato reward in weekstrom's case 700 EBs 700 Gold and i'm not sure but maybe a pack?
For every legend rank 500 Q7 weapons?
An honorable mention in articles such as these? Although I'm not sure that can live up to the game naming the Dutch legend ranks after Weekstrom...
As far as I know Battle Hero medals are such a huge source of income to world class land fighters that it would be very hard to provide anything substantial in comparison...
Nah, I don't need cash or something like that. However likely I am the exception in NL as I also use Maverick Pack so I earn a lot with BH's and have build myself an enterprise as well over the years. The latter makes myself selfsupporting. The first is a matter of chicken or egg; What comes first. You need one to pay for the other (in my case that is).
That said I do think it would be very wise to also make a program for ground players as that's the only way we seem to be able to let taxes flow to the players that are active. Weapon rewards or rewards based on TP damage could be a way to go. And yes I do think that if a program is in place you need to reward all players and not exclude some because they have spend more time in the game or played smarter than the others. It will mean large players get a larger share indeed but the contribute more as well. For instance I score a lot of CO taxes for NL just like medal tax or even VAT due to me selling stuff or work tax due to my comps although I would not know how that taxation works nowadays.
@shawtyl0w; You als get 14 Big bombs. Packs you get foor 200 & 300 or maybe 300 & 400. Above that its the level in gold and EB's plus the 100 figure x2 in Big bombs.
@Weekstrom, even better would be to provide funds to turn into a self-sufficient machine like yourself 😉. But while it is (to a degree) possible to help with that, I doubt there are many unlike yourself who are active and ambitious enough to turn self-sufficient.. 🙁 I'd favour the return of Q7 supplies / rewards, though.
700 gold in these days is quite a lot of reward, which this country will never be able to match 😛 .
Either way MoD is not tracking the progress of Ground Ranks, as there is no use for it now. Either way, if government suggests to focus there as well, I will gladly follow. It is a question (believe it or not) of whether we can afford it.
This country is very poor by any standard. Mainly because of some very bad decisions/actions in the past which did cost us dearly along with the fact we have had hostile occupations for years. Ofc small nations have always been at a disadvantage but if we would have been a bit less stupid in the past and if people did not flee abroad for personal gain (and still think they are important or have a large say here) but instead would have stuck to our nation we likely would have been far better of. Although on the other hand; The reform going on now when it comes to our lawbook would likely not even have started and forum would be even more the elite place where all is decided.
That said; 700 reward sounds like a lot but normally I earn that in less than 2 weeks. Which is needed to convert to cash and buy packs...
Congratulations!

Can someone remove that weird UK pounds symbol from the tables? #brexit
I blame @Shawtylow for that, it is his doc... my docs would have Czech crowns 😃 !
Time for another MoNC!
Fair enough!
Hahaha Janty you made that Tab. Spreading lies about your vCP. Indeed Bo Kito MoNC it is.

I have elaborated more on the issue, and the only "Guldens" Google offers are "Netherlands Antillean guilder". Therefore from now on, we plan to move the Ministry of Defense to Curaçao, so you will have to apply next time in Fort Amsterdam.
@Janty:
I was surprised to see this, but indeed all 6 "Dutch" islands near America are present on the eRepublik map. They're all marked as neutral territory though.
Coicnidentally, on Curacao Tourist Bureau - official website, one of the featured articles says, and I quote: "You might not be, but we’ll ask you anyway: are you ready for a FOURTH The Flying Dutch location? This October 25th, The Flying Dutch moves to the most tranquilo island we’ve ever been to: Curaçao. "
Neutral or not, it seems we really should start with moving there 😶 .
Wait what?
I'll apply.
