The Way of the Guerrilla
mihail.cazacu
Thanks for all the votes, subscriptions and PMs received for the previous article about fighting the economic war.
In today’s issue I’ll add more tips about effective guerrilla warfare for civilians.
If you are trapped in an enemy territory without means to move to your country here is what can be done:
1. Check who your employer really is. Most of the times the companies you are working for are owned by organizations. Visit the page of the organization and check out the donations lists. Take your time. This way you will find out who you are really working for. Look for the citizenship of the individuals donating to or receiving donations from that organization. If you see the organization is donating or receiving donations from another organization go investigate that organization as well.
2. If you discover you work for a PEACE-owned company it’s time to start sabotaging them.
3. You sabotage them by working with as low wellness as possible. This way your productivity is lower than your wage and you drag the enemy-owned company into bankruptcy.
4. First step is to get your health as close to 40 as possible. Starving yourself takes too many days. Look for the list of wars that country is involved in. Look where the official orders tell the population to fight AND DON’T FIGHT THERE unless that is a Resistance War. In which case you should fight for the Red team.
5. If there is no Resistance War going on, choose another battle than the one recommended by the enemy government, preferably one where the wall is still very high, and FIGHT BAREHANDED . If you still have weapons in your inventory, donate them to a friend BEFORE fighting, then get them back through a reverse donation.
6. By fighting in a war on the enemy’s side you will of course fight against the alliance. Luckily if you do so barehanded the damage you do would be minimal. Fighting barehanded cuts the damage in half. The good news is you would have to do it one day only. And you do it so you can get your wellness slightly above 40.
7. Train AFTER you have fought. That achieves two purposes. First it lowers your wellness with one more point before working. So by training before working you decrease your productivity even further and cause a bigger loss to the enemy employers. Second purpose: since every training day increases your strength, you fight against the allies with a lower strength and cause them less damage;
8. As soon as you have finished fighting and training, go and work. You need to be quick because if your employer finds out about your health level you will be fired before ruining him;
9. Most likely the next day you find yourself fired. Excellent, now you can go and screw another enemy company over. The routine is “Train THEN Work”. Since your wellness level is now close to 40, you don’t have to fight one more time against your allies. Just Train to lower whatever wellness you’ve recovered from eating and sleeping and then Work.
10. If your region had a hospital before being conquered chances are that hospital isn’t there anymore. Unless of course the invader spent money to build another one. Always keep in mind you will eventually have to either fight in a Resistance War. Or to return to your country to help the liberation effort. So you MUST be located in a region with a Q5 hospital for when the time comes to fight again. This is why whatever money you make you should save for buying 3 Q1 plane tickets. Why 3? Because you will need the first one to move to any enemy province which has a Q5 hospital. You will need the next 2 to go to your country (or to an allied country if yours is TEMPORARILY obliterated). Since you can’t fly directly to your country or to an allied one as long as it is at war with the enemy country you are in, you will need 2 tickets instead of 1. The first is to fly to a neutral country (say Peru or South Africa) and from there to your final destination.
11. The time has come for you to pack. If you followed the advices so far, you should have 2 tickets in your inventory, some nice amount of local currency in your savings account and the wellness slightly above 40. Look first if there’s any Resistance War going on, so you can fight RED before recovering your wellness to 80+ and leaving. If there’s a Resistance War take advantage of it. Flying twice with Q1 tickets lowers your wellness by 4 points. Which means if you were below 44 when you land you won’t be able to fight for your country. This is why if possible get on the plane with wellness 80+ or 90+.
12. If there’s no Resistance War going on you have 2 options. The first is to fight once barehanded as advised at #5 above then go to the hospital. The second is to buy the highest quality food which would allow you to recover overnight, convert all the local currency in Gold and then take the plane.
13. The wellness recovery formula is Wellness Increase = (1.5 – CurrentWellness/100)*(FoodQuality + HouseQuality). If your wellness is say 42 before the 2 flights (one to a neutral country and one to your final destination) then at arrival your CurrentWellness will be 38 (you lose 2 wellness points for each Q1 flight). If you have no house then HouseQuality =0. Therefore the formula becomes WellnessIncrease = (1.5 – 0.3😎
*FoodQuality which means WellnessIncrease = 1.12*FoodQuality. You need a minimum of 40 wellness points in order to fight the next day. So one loaf of bread Q2 should be enough. That’s what you need to buy from the local market before leaving. If your savings are big enough and the Q2 food is cheaper at your final destination convert the local currency in Gold, convert some of it back to the currency at the final destination and buy the Q2 food there. Otherwise buy the Q2 food locally before leaving because converting a small amount of local money to Gold and then back to the destination currency might result in having not enough funds to buy Q2 food there.
Now go get them tiger! It ain't over until the fat EDEN/FORTIS lady sings 😉

Soon, when new company tools will be added, those who works with low wellness will be fired immidiatly.
And if such kinde of "guerrila war" will continuse - the speciall black lists of people will be created, to inform every company owner about such kinde of people.
ха, сколько такие работники продержатся на работе? В результате только небольшие неприятности для начинающей компании (сам недавно столкнулся). Эти "партизаны" сами же себя тормозят в развитии. Потом им будет только хуже.
есть гораздо более эффективные способы ведение экономической войны, но глупые румыны никогда не догадаются
Не догадаются румыны - им подскажут кадеты. Пятая колонна всегда была и останется.
ну дибилы....
Думаю, лучше будет набирать новых работников только днем, когда американцы спят - меньше вероятности нанять саботажника.
>Не догадаются румыны - им подскажут кадеты. Пятая колонна всегда была и останется.
эм, "Хьюстон, у нас проблемы" (с)
впрочем, нас это меньше всего касается, у нас не населенные штаты под контролем. А вот Индонезии и Франции будет туго.
Еще одним выходом из ситуации может быть размещение объявлений о работе на русскоязычных форумах по игре. Джоб офферы в игре ставим по минимальной зп, подъём после первого дня работы с компенсацией за первый день.
Ну в общем наверное всё будет зависеть от распространенности проблемы. Возможно что американцы и не будут составлять сколь-нибудь заметную часть работников в России
всё равно не понимаю в чем проблема, достаточно поддерживать зряплату работникам на должном уровне, текучка раб.силы это плохо
I'll answer in English since this is aimed anyway at the Americans living under Russian occupation (though ya govoriu po-russky 😉):
The new company management tools won't help because the trick is to get hired and immediately push the "Work" button. The company manager can see even today who has low wellness. So you will get fired no matter what. The whole idea is to drain the enemy company of its money.
The black-lists won't help either. The guerrilla warrior would get hired, sabotage, get fired. The next day he'll do the same 😉
As for offering the minimum wage (SnowCat's idea), that would be great 😃. The Russian state would only collect the taxes for the minimal wage in the first day of work. Every day would be the same for all the guerrilla workers AND the legitimate Russian ones. So by all means, go ahead 🙂
mihail.cazacu, even though you govorish po-russky, you don't read very well 🙂 My idea is to increase the salary after first day. The only taxes Russia is going to miss - is for this single day. Companies don't hire their entire staff everyday, most of workers stay with their companies for quite some time.
For every problem - there is a solution 🙂
Oh but I did understand your idea. So here it is the succession of events:
1. ALL the companies will have to advertise their job openings at 1 RUB. Guess how would that attract the best workers? 😉 There will be no differentiation among companies, no way to attract the best available workforce.
2. During the first day on the job the Russian government would collect the minimum income tax for all the new workers. The problem is every day is the first day for somebody 😉 So every day the Russian government would collect the minimum income tax for both the "guerrillas" and the hard-working citizens.
The purpose of such guerrilla actions is to maximize the harm a person on foreign territory can inflict.
If one person can cause the enemy government to collect minimum wage taxes from a lot of legitimate users and if the presence of the guerrillas would cause ANY job to be offered at 1 RUB disrupting the Russian labor market then I guess the advice works 😉
Ok, especially for you. The jobs will be advertised not in the game, but in the russian forum. Most of American don't know Russian so they simply will not know about them. Even if they obtain russian citizenship, a simple question in Russian (in the forum or PM in the game) will reveal their true identitiy.
Yes, the salary will be one rouble for the first day and this one day will be a loss for Russia taxwise. However - most of employees stay with their employers much longer than one day. If the salary is to be INCREASED after the first day to the true level - there will be no more losses taxwise. Therefore it is not going to be critical for Russia. And americans who decide to be saboteurs may enjoy their 1 rub salary - should be enough for q1 loaf of bread 🙂
Whats more - I don't think that americans will hurt us too much. There are not many of them on the annexed territories. Whats more - not so many of them are active 🙂 They are abandoned accounts mostly
I guess time will tell, don't you think so? As long as there might be Americans in the Russian-controlled territory this piece of information will be put to good use.
If there no American then you've just had something to read in English 🙂 But I've got 15 votes so there are some people considering joining the guerrilla as we speak.
Resistance!!! Voted
