Operation Neodymium

Day 3,340, 13:35 • Published in USA Finland • by Seppo Ilmarinen

We’re playing a war game but it often seems more like a Farmville. It’s been like that almost always, excluding few wipes which some remained only as tries. There isn’t much to do in eWorld – never has must be honest. My clicks are maybe in vain and it’s better just hoard things for the rainy day. Maybe rank up towards to an Air Tank but will it all be pointless when if they introduce the perception centres? It’s my time to go for media.



Perhaps I don’t understand much of current situation across the eWorld and the necessity of status quo. It’s good for saving resources, replenishing our endless reserves and boring the citizens who want panem et circenses. There haven’t been any battles worth to tank even a bit. Plus, all the epic battles happen in lower divisions and players without the limited-time-only-Maverick Pack are excluded from the fun.

We’re beating a dead horse with UK. Probably it’s time to move on and start another front to keep us constantly True Patrioting. How about an operation to make us closer to the beloved Neodymium and increase our national bonuses? Neodymium shouldn't be that far away and successful operation to attain it should be plotted by the evil executive.



Current world map is crap and doesn’t let me search for only Neodymiums. The closest one is in Kanada, Prince Edward Islands under occupation of Romania. Slightly too big target for now. Poland has its own and Serbia has it in the Japan. How is that possible even though Japan shares border with us! Ok, we shouldn’t attack Serbia either… yet.

Next Neo is probably somewhere south America… Nope, Chile didn’t have it. Their reign is only a shadow now… A lightbulb moment. Deutcheland erepublik certainly knows where each resource is! After about 10sec searching I found out that there is only 4 Neos available:



After all, it seems that the only choice would be… Iran. Their damage is one third of ours so not much of challenge but the trip all way through the Asia/Europe into their region is quite a staggering. Total distance of 8,000 miles from Hawaii but only 6,000 from London! Anyways, it’s said that it isn't the destination, but the journey, that matters. In this case the destination matters too since I want to increase our missile production.

What do you think about this ‘small’ operation to keep us active? I’m not sure how many MPPs we would break or is this anywhere near to realistically happen. Anyways I had fun to theorize it, I hope you had too while reading it.
