Freedom Fighters
Muhammad Noman
Hey fellas,
So Plato has decided to bring some changes, which directly effects the military module,and indirectly the economy.This will be implemented on erepublik's 6th birthday.Take a look:
yay,extra strength,wait what's that.................
Freedom Fighters
So what actually is this achievement about???
This achievement will be given to fighters who will fight in specific amount of RWs and do specific amount of kills,but only if they are able to WIN that RW.
Kills and amount of RWs to be won
What does this mean for:
i) The world?
a) Well this means that there will be a huge amount of people who will try to fight in different battles,and not only this they will try to co-ordinate their damage so that they are able to win the RW as well.
b) This means that different Mus at different times might join together to free a region.The likes of US-AIM.
c) Occupied countries will find it easier to have their regions back,by giving certain incentives such as high COs.
d) The big countries will find it hard to keep their bonuses intact,such as Serbia,which has already shown the tendency to lose its regions. This update might just hastle this process.
ii) For alliances/TWO:
a) The biggest disadvantage for TWo is that they are holding the most regions,so they are basically going to be the target of it.
b) This change would also mean that certain MUs or countries might just joi together on specific battlefields to harm the alliance rather than forming a coalition.Thus being saved from the yolk of HQs. The Portugese retaliation of Spanish attack is one example.
c) This would also mean that players from some countries might end up fighting against a country of their own alliance,thus weakening the bond of unity present in the alliance.
d) There would be a problem fighting so amny different RWs,ad there is still no effective mobile force. The likes of Eurasia should be considered.
iii) eUk :
a) Now,this is interesting,we have been usually fond of just our own island and seldom have we gotten out of it. But this changed this month,now we are having regions in Scandanavia. The point to be noted is that we are not gaining any bonus from these regions,we are just getting them from Ireland.So,this would just attract more RWs.
b) There had been some rantings about getting the DEER region even by using force against our allies on our borders. Now I dont think this certainly would favour this,if are to egt the region,we should just do diplomatic work. Other than that,would be dangerous for us.
c) This would also mean that Ireland might try to RW our fruit region,while we have borders with not-so-friendly Canadians.
The Way Forward
a) Now the admin has already given a hint, that is tax collection from occupied regions,though details of it are still unknown and will be published this month,imo .Whatever the criterion for that may be, one thing is for sure,government is gonna get quite a considerable amount of money from the taxes.And will have to increase its defence budget.It can do it either by creating ONE official MU( headed by MoD/MoD team) so that COs might be placed effectively or by a quota system based on the ratio of damage done by each MU to that of total national damage.
b) MDPs,as I have stated in my previous article,there is a need of sub-regional coalition of countries,so that damage is effectively concentrated ,and all the countries are able to benefit from it. <---- There is a vast area of improvement here,and can be discussed,eg. joint defence budgets or such things.
This was just an analysis and should be treated as such.
I hope u enjoyed reading it.

Thanks buddy.
Interesting analyses.
Freedom fighters give TWO enemies more power, taxes on occupied regions are doing the opposite.
Hopefully this will bring more excitement.
Voted & shouted.
The taxation thing would only be beneficial for the host country if they use it on COs,and stuff......

Unban me from #euk dude.
I did, ages ago lol
Interesting analysis. I agree with Neimand that the Freedom Fighters and the tax changes may possibly offset each other, at least to some degree. We will see. If this changes the balance of power, that could be good. If, however, it upsets existing agreements about rented or exchanged regions, that could be not so good.
With regard to the moving tickets, they aren't exactly useless, but it should be noted that their use depletes a certain amount of energy, which is annoying for fighters.
the incoming updates are good,
Except one, the farmville.

I love JamesW
Well,he and kualkerr are the only players i respect in this game the most.
Great analyses. These changes will affect the strategies that dominant countries enjoyed before.
Vote+ sub o7
Great article and points well made...i am still nervous about the changes though as history shows change only comes about because Plato is hungry for more of our money
some changes can be a good thing...this might be so, at the very least it will split the Imperialists up as they will need to find good RW fighting nations to combat the RH hunters

The bigger countrys will get richer due to the new tax system. Meaning the lower occupied nations will get less and less tax each month. This not only means less handouts to its people esp if they have a gov military. But also means not being able to afford MP's in the future so they will actually have less and less countrys being able to fight for them without moving.
Of course you can put on CO's for battles to make them move but again will less and less money this will also not be possible to have enough of a effect.
This new tax in my eyes could be the most single damaging thing that small countries will have to fear
yeah,I just saw the new update. Keers will really have to write an article about it,did not geta thing.
Good article. Interesting to see what the effects of this medal are too. Voted 🙂
