[DoE] Emergency Planning Notice & The Citizen's Handbook

Day 4,859, 11:52 • Published in USA USA

• by Department of Citizen Affairs

Greetings, Citizens!

The Department of Education has exciting news to share with you all about our future projects! However, before we can do so we have been asked to release an emergency planning notice: War is Coming.

It is time to stockpile supplies. Weapons, food, houses if you can afford them, and especially premium goods like energy bars. Do not underestimate the importance of morale either. Support your friends, check in with them on a regular basis. Don't forget to pack some board games in your bug-out bags and bunkers. Keep an eye on official government sources for further information as the situation develops.

The DoE has been authorized by the President to collect, organize, and release a consolidation of vital information known as "The Citizen's Handbook". We have decided that this project would be the most useful if on the very front of the handbook, we condensed vital gameplay information for consumption. The following document will grow, change, and eventually become a repository of guides easier to navigate than the current newspaper system that currently indexes DoE products. It is intended to be passed on to future cabinets should they find the project amenable. You can find the initial two pages here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1NLpaigfW1KzC8Ilp1LiHmhOHI7y3IGXgcVuxf3s0h7A/edit?usp=sharing

Franklin Roosevelt told the people how he felt
We damned near believed what he said
He said, "I hate war, and so does Eleanor
But we won't be safe 'till everybody's dead."

Correction to item 1
Buy one house of each quality that costs less than a week’s wages, and use the overtime points to generate a profit

It needs to take into account residency bonus & cost - My residence is a town (population less than 50) & get 20% duration bonus & 1% activation cost - so house last 8.4 days (so an additional day at the cost of 1% of house cost)

A town is the best you can do as far as house bonus if population is between 50 & 99 then pay 2% and get only 10% duration bonus

Correction to item 2
Upgrade your training grounds. Set aside gold for this purpose and wait for sales. If you have all the upgrades, buy the training contract.

If new
only upgrade the free training center (some would argue the 2nd one should be upgraded as well but will be a long long long time for a return on investment prior to level 200 when you get free training)

Instead focus on air combat - you will become much more relevant much quicker in air combat

Super Nova Day 4,859, 18:32

And only upgrade training grounds when upgrades are discounted (usually once a month)

Residency: Where should I live?

Move to Virginia or Kentucky. Virginia has bonuses for food production, Kentucky has bonuses for weapon production. These will be well-defended and good to eventually produce goods in.

Yes & No - see correction to item 1

Yes have your factories in Virginia or Kentucky but consider having residency nearby in a Town
Compare the moving cost to do your daily WAM to the Housing duration bonus & lower activation tax

For Virginia 10% duration bonus & 2% activation tax
For Kentucky 5% duration bonus & 3% activation tax

For some numbers assume 10K cost for Q1 house

For some numbers assume 10K cost for Q1 house & 2K salary for your job Activation Cost Duration ---- Cost Per Day of house

xxxxxxxxxx Activation Cost xx Duration xxxxx Q1 cost per day
Town xxxxxx 100 xxxxxxxxxxx 8.4 xxxxxxxxxxxx ~1190
Virginia xxxxx 200 xxxxxxxxxx 7.7 xxxxxxxxxxxxx ~1299 (109 more than Town)
Kentucky- 300 xxxxxxxxxxxx 7.35 xxxxxxxxxxxxx ~1360 (361 more than Town)

So it may be cheaper (depends on moving cost) to commute to work rather than have residence where you WAM

e.g. if round trip moving cost to Virginia is & for Kentucky is is
If have Q2 or higher houses than the savings are even greater.

I think Churchill's speech
(changed a little bit to match the current war that we are about to face)
is due..

"We shall go on to the end, we shall fight on the seas and oceans,
we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air,
we shall defend our country, whatever the cost may be.

We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds,
we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills;
we shall never surrender.."

Let this be our finest hour

There's a storm on the horizon
and my adrenalines runnin' wild
but I got my brothers standing next to me..

So praise the lord and
pass the ammo,
Stars Stripes and Camo..

There's a price to be paid
to stay free..
