Money is money, and as far as I know, donations are the only way dollars turn into game money, so I think its fair to reference. Still, don't get too excited about doing damage roughly equal to one guy having a night of drinking in an upscale bar.

The 8 AP to launch is an good counterbalance. An attacker can jump on just prior to midnight with 2 ground wins, and within 24 hours can end the war and beige you, taking a percentage of your loot and your alliance bank's loot. Might he take a lot of infra dmg in the process? Yes, if target have missiles, target might launch 3 against attacker (if active, the attacker is always active, obviously) in the time it takes attacker to beige him and get the loot. That doesn't seem entirely unbalanced to me. Defending with just missiles is a risky move. A gangbang will be devastating as you'll run out of missiles rather quickly.

I don't think more advanced nations should gain a greater benefit from donating then newer nations. Like others, i'd rather see it the other way around, but given how easy it is to move money around, it should probably just stay how it is.

Moving forward, don't panic. Worst case, you lose one "tick" of income, that's 1/12th of your daily total, while you figure it out.

More people voted for Democrats. But Republicans won. An interesting political system where the party with more votes loses the election(s).

Welcome. Enjoy the start of the game for you. Read everything carefully before making decisions. Good luck!

And I got my degree in History/Poli Sci, so there. These games attract a certain kind of person I think.

Pretty enough to pique her brother's interest.

Feb. 1986. Recent experiments by the Iron Islands navy in using certain water-based mammals as offensive weapons. A Greenpeace expose opened the secret program to the world. It seems that they had begun using microfusion devices mounted on a platypus. After the program was exposed, the country's president issued hasty denials of the program. Several admirals disappeared shortly thereafter. The president was overheard saying "Seriously? Platypus weaponry? What were they thinking?"

Alas poor Spade Empire, we hardly knew you.

Nice move. Making friends through war is a tried and true method of success.

Join a different alliance. provide info from new alliance to the alliance of your "main" nation. Yep, that would work brilliantly.

I do

Is there any other drama?

Great OP. Would read again!

You're right. It does seem familiar.

Look, Huff Post has an entire article about it for us cretans. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/10/29/r-word-advocacy_n_6064196.html?utm_hp_ref=mostpopular

First libertarian book I ever read was called "There are no utopias."

French. Entirely a French.innovation.

I'm like that 76 year old who thinks its ok to use the N word. When I grew up, "Retard" or "Retarded" was used to refer to a person who wasn't smart or an action or idea that wasn't smart. And it was totally ok. No one got in trouble for it. No one ever spoke and said it wasn't "cool" or it was "insensitive". But things change, right? Now today, we can't say "Retarded". When I hear the 76 year old use the N word, I'm shocked. So are today's teenagers shocked at the word "retard?"

A few months was the time period I played. That was years ago.

Surprised to see TAC back at #1 so quickly

Unless you like Taylor Swift. Then, not so much every song.

You can always read the newspapers or official ag reports of another nation to deduce that info.
