Currently English only, but I can guarantee that a translation will follow...
First of all, I'd like to thank Swooshy for his fast updates to http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/2322531. I've used his article for this analysis. So I'm sure he'd appreciate it, if you vote up his article too.
Air Support 1/4
Conditions:
- You and the citizens of your country, together, must defeat 19,382 opponents (for eNL).
- Defeat 25 Enemies
Rewards:
- Increased energy recovery: 20 energy/6 minutes
Conclusion:
Mainly worth something for D4 (where XP is no problem), but you will automatically meet this requirement if you complete the DO once during these 5 days, so no problems here...
Air Support 2/4
Conditions:
?
Rewards:
- Increased energy recovery: 30 energy/6 minutes
Air Support 3/4
Conditions:
?
Rewards:
- Increased energy recovery: 40 energy/6 minutes
Air Support 4/4
Conditions:
?
Rewards:
- Increased energy recovery: 50 energy/6 minutes
Commandos Squad 1/4: Parachuting Preparation
Conditions:
- Get the reward for completing the Daily Tasks
Rewards:
- Energy Bars: 3
Conclusion:
Just train and work once, and you get a free 3 energy bars. Great!
Commandos Squad 2/4: Break Trough the Jungle
Conditions:
- Recover 1,500 Energy in 1 day
Rewards:
- Damage Booster for 2 hours
Conclusion:
Not really worthwhile, but doable. Maybe the 3rd and 4th mission give something nicer?
In the lower divisions: If you're going for your DO. Do Guerrilla Fights without using any armor each time after making 5 regular kills. If you get hit you lose energy without gaining experience, also allowing you to recover more energy. 😉
For D4: the experience doesn't matter. And the damage booster is a nice extra. So definitely worthwhile, and suicide tactics like in the lower divisions are absolutely unnecessary.
Commandos Squad 3/4: Pass the river
Conditions:
- Recover 3000 Energy in 1 day
Rewards:
- Strength: 20
Conclusion:
3000 energy in 1 day will be possible without using energy bars as the "Air Support" missions will increase the energy restore rate. But using 3000 energy means a lot of experience to the lower divisions, more than the additional strength is worth... If players from D1-D3 want to participate, I advice you to use the Guerilla Fight kamikaze strategy. For players from D4 this again does not apply...
Commandos Squad 4/4: Avoiding watchtowers
Conditions:
- Recover 6000 Energy in 1 day
Rewards:
- +100 Energy Center for 15 days
Conclusion:
Probably only worth it for D4. It will get easier as the "Air Support" missions progress, meaning that this can be possible without using energy bars this time. But 6000 energy is a lot of experience points to the lower divisions, and the reward (temporary higher max energy) is not worth it to them, as this is only useful if you want to fight more...
Naval Support 1/4: Beach Landing
Conditions:
- Increase your Strength with 10 points
Rewards:
- Energy Bars: 3
Conclusion:
Train for one or two days, and you get some free energy bars. Definitely do this one.
Naval Support 2/4: Load the Cannons
Conditions:
- Increase your Strength with 90 points
Rewards:
- Rocket: 1
Conclusion:
Can be completed in 5 days if you have the first training ground fully upgraded, in 3 days if you have the first two training grounds fully upgraded, or even in a single day if you have all training grounds fully upgraded.
If you don't have any upgrades, I don't advice you to waste gold on training with the more expensive training grounds, as it's not worth it (unless the follow-up missions give amazing rewards).
Naval Support 3/4: To the Rescue
Conditions:
- Invite 2 friends and help them reach level 20 OR Defeat 200 Enemies,,
Rewards:
- Strength: 20
Conclusion:
For lower divisions: Defeating 200 enemies will give a lot of experience points, which you don't want. Maybe you have some RL friends you can involve in this game? In any case don't cheat and create multiple accounts, as the admins will probably ban all of them and your current account.
For D4: Killing 200 enemies in 5 days time should be doable.
Naval Support 4/4: Cover Fire
Conditions:
- Defeat 50 enemies every day for 3 days OR Defeat 300 enemies
Rewards:
+50 Energy Center for 15 days
Conclusion:
The reward is probably worthless to divisions 1-3. And take into account that these 300 enemies (or 3 * 50 enemies) come on top of what you had to do for the previous mission.
Marines Squa😛
1/4: Beach Landing
Conditions:
- Complete Daily Order
Rewards:
- Energy Bars: 3
Conclusion: Finishing your DO once these 5 days is relatively easy so these are practically 3 free energy bars.
Marines Squa😛
2/4: Into the Jungle
Conditions:
- Fight in 2 different campaigns and defeat 25 enemies in each.
Rewards:
- Strength: 20
Conclusion: Can be combined with the DO on two different days, in which case it should be doable. But take care that you need to kill 25 enemies in 2 different campaigns, which is not automatically guaranteed when doing the DO. A campaign may end before you did enough kills, and the same campaign may last over a day. The 20 strength in any case is worthwhile, especially if you don't need to fight more than you normally do.
Marines Squa😛
3/4: Fall back
Conditions:
- Fight in 4 different campaigns and defeat 25 enemies in each
Rewards:
- Damage booster for 8 hours
Conclusion:
Not really worth a lot. If you do this mission, check your progress while you're going, and after finishing your fourth campaign, don't immediately claim the reward, but instead wait until your energy bar is full again, and you're planning to fight. Of course, don't wait past the end of the event...
Marines Squa😛
4/4: Hold Them Back
Conditions:
- Fight to inflict more than XX,XXX,XXX damage! (different for everybody)
Rewards:
- 10% of the damage you do as rank points
Conclusion:
- This basically doubles your rank points for the fights you need to do the required damage. But as this will involve a lot of XP, it's probably not worth it for the lower divisions...
After completing "Commandos Squad 4/4: Avoiding watchtowers", "Naval Support 4/4: Cover Fire" and "Marines Squa😛
4/4: Hold Them Back" the following mission will be unlocke😛
The Final Battle
Conditions:
- 600 kills
Rewards:
- +200 energy center for 15 days
Conclusion:
Maybe useful for D4, not recommended for lower divisions. And I don't know how much time you have to left when you arrive at this mission. 600 kills is not that easy...
Finishing this mission will also reward you with a decoration on your profile.

This time I'm staying off, not fighting.
This event is about the total performance of eNL, not the average. So it is totally up to you how much you want to fight. But be aware that the only collective missions are the "Air Support" missions, which give more energy recovery.
I would advice you to fight, well at least to do the DO a few times. 😉
You can get some free energy bars without a lot of work, and some strength bonuses, etc.
And this advice applies to everybody... Don't spend too much on this event, especially not your energy bars and gold. Just finish the easiest missions.
Hmmm, okay. I'll do fights twice a day to help e-NL.
I think the rewards are pretty useless, I don't know about you but I'm not doing missins this time! To me It's just the waste of gold,energy bars, and money.. Ye you can do the easiest missins but i recommend that you don't go for those "harder" missions..
it looks that ay indeed. certainly in the lower divs
Air Support: Collective effort, rewards not very useful, especially considering the food prices...
Generalised reward/effort rating:
Commando Squa😛 1 great, 2 reasonable, 3 good, 4 skip
Naval Support: 1 great, 2 reasonable, 3 reasonable, 4 skip
Marines Squa😛 1 great, 2 great, 3 reasonable, 4 reasonable
The final battle: skip
So that's 3 definite skips for me personally...
I wouldn't put in too much effort. 😉
Great analysis!
And indeed most of the rewards are useless for D1-3 and for most D4 as well. Only players that are in the top of their div with strength could consider going for the health centre's as they would mean more ff and thus higher chance on BH without the use of EB's. They could use the health recovery increase as well that comes from our total effort. Air support is nicely chosen as the name as that's what it is; Al players could support a few to have more ff...
These rewards stink 🙁
what happened to all to cool bombs in the earlier ones!!
as a non fighting nation.. who cares about 15 days of more energy..
and 20 strength?? thats the work out i get while i sleep! make it at least 100 or something fun..
very disappointed in the ER.
at least make us work for a DECENT strength. this sucks. Firing 4 Q7 already makes this too expensive in terms of XP
that's quite simple; Admins first tried to let people use more weps in an attempt to cope with damage of the bombs. That way they tried to stop the ever declining wep prices. Once it became finally clear that didn't help enough they came up with the Co so the weathy nations could pay easier for damage and thus let people use more tanks plus the health boosters to use more weps ànd more food so the abundance of resources is used and we may finally go towards a more healthy economy again with rising wages (and thus tax income) and rising resource prices so people are perhaps able to gain some money again. The only thing missing until now are rising gold prices.
i understand depleting excess resources can help stabilize the economy.. but the cost of food and weapons is increasing at what seems at least the same rate as wages.. so its a bit of a wash.. & at this point it seems to me the rate of increase in the price of goods exceeds the rate of the wage increase.. it seems to me admins are just trying to get more 'paying' players.. especially with the gold specials always going hand in hand with their new missions.. ... and i think it was use more weapons to win the bombs.. their power is much greater than anything you can do with weapons.. hence in my mind decreasing the incentive to fight against.. lol not that it matters 😉 Now they are all energy missions.. eating up all the food resources.. which obviously weren't stock piled in the same fashion.. as their prices have sky rocketed! I miss the old economy.. thats the only reason i joined this game years ago.. and why i left when they moved towards using war as the principle device..
I agree djirtsdew.. but BH are easy in every div but d4.. 6000 energy or 300 kills in my situation is more difficult.. either way.. the rewards are a joke.. so im not doing anything crazy this time around.
The rewards are not worth a lot, but also the missions are easier than in previous quests like these.
No need for a Battle Hero this time, unless that would be part of the requirements for the next stages of "Air Support".
So basically the conclusion is: take the rewards for anything you'd normally do, maybe do slightly more to get an additional reward, but apart from that, forget about the missions...
thats it. Awesome analysis bro. And im really really happy you thoroughly incorporated X/S in the advice. This is extremely important and glad it gets picked up.
QUESTION....
The "Damage Booster for one day" that is rewarded for commando's #2.. do you get to activate that anytime.. or does it activate immediately once gained...
Rant..
It almost seems like these type of mission/ rewards only give D4 a benefit in gaining a larger gap(in ranks (& exp)) between their counterparts in lower divisions.. thats no fun! so when i do get to D4 i will have more catching up to do.. which is impossible! Admins are like governments.. i'll stop there.. 😉 lol
that intel is outdated. It's 2 hours.
As for higher ranks benefitting more; It's quite normal that if you ar older/more exp/stronger that you can do more. But you also have to do way more for most things. When I started I didn't have a change with this kind of missions, while now every d1-3 player could accomplish at least half of them. Wouldn't be wise, but it could be done. Without using gold that is.
thats not what i meant on the rant.. but thanks for clearing up the booster!! i could complete the missions, easy.. but no rewards worth the experience gain at this point.. & no important battles coming up, or ever these days.. its the gap between more experienced and not.. its being changed in an un-proportionate fashion with these type of missions.. & can never be closed (w/o inactivity) thats all 🙂
oh! and the booster.. it starts immediately .. or can you choose when to activate it?
The booster will start at the moment you click the mission again. Typically when you complete the requirements for a mission something starts flashing on the left bottom of the screen. As long as you do not click the mission, and ignore that button, the booster doesn't start.
But as soon as you do click on the mission or that button you will automatically get the reward (and the next mission). In this case that means starting the 2 hours.
Recover 1500 Energy has just 2 hours damage booster as reward.

Fixed the article. 🙂
sigh, gonna sit this one out again....
without any big wars in the next 15 days, all the rewards are junk.. other than the rocket.. but thats small potato's anyway.. disappointing for sure!
gives you some time to digest this: http://tinyurl.com/pxcvsbd
me thinks we'll have a heavy rw soon 😉
air supprot 2/4 for canada:
You and the citizens of your country, together, must defeat 95,534 opponents.
All the citizens of the country will receive the reward once the requirement is completed.
The number of defeated opponents is refreshed every 10 seconds.
And you persoanllly have to kill 50 oppnentns
I don't know how the 95k translates to the Dutch equivalent. Is it around 4/3 of the requirement for the previous mission?
I'm not sure either
I guess we'll find out today, we're at 14,449/19,382
Slechte prijzen man.
Regarding Marines Squa😛 4/4: Hold Them Back; GF damage does count.
