The most important reason why this war should stop is that's it's boring as f%&#. But the numbers are probably true, I'm still making more than 20M per day at 800 Infra. This could go on forever unfortunately.

Why do you care? just keep making profit of the war you dodged. and if that did't work go to VM and abandon your alliance. you should know these stuff you are the expert

Yeah got blockaded and plundered by the very same people I joined the war for (Odin and the tCW guy was begged by BK to hit me as well BK has no whales), just like everyone else who left the war got hit for not wanting to remain a meat shield for BK, as for a war dodger, you might want to check your stats, willing to bet i took and did more damage than your nation but sure call that a war dodge.

You lack knowledge of the truth, I would say you need to spend more time to gain knowledge then come back with your name calling and silly claims.

... but your model still does not account for upkeep, which as I just demonstrated would flip even these numbers.

Also that steel gap is absolutely incredible (and kinda the main reason why you guys are so far ahead number-wise here). Hopefully my coalition will start using less steel...

It's net, not gross, it literally accounts for all upkeep. Get your head out of your ass lmfao.

I wasn't talking to you when I said being blockaded and plundered. I was talking to @Inconnu who bragged about making 20m a day. And I with 18 cities have higher net damage than you with 33 cities so don't bet on that. I know what happened to Yakuza and that's enough "knowledge" for me.

No it doesn't, actually read the chart, i know reading is hard for you. It doesn't actually mention units or upkeep of anything at all.

Could we normalize this on a per-city basis?  Obviously, if you guys are bigger it's gonna have more net profits, but the per-city comparison will be able to actually show opportunity cost.

Also, as for upkeep costs, I can extrapolate on a per-city basis using your stats for unit breakdown.  These are net additional costs for coalition b cities versus coalition a cities.

Soldiers: (8740 - 3349) * (1.88 + 149/500) = $11,523.80

Tanks: (152 - 25) * 75 = $9,525.00

Planes: (71 - 9) * 750 = $46,500

Ships: (3 -  0.5) * 5625 =  $14,062.50

Total: $81,6111.30

All military, improvement and other upkeep is included in the model. Its been tested against multiple alliances and it's usually at most a few cents off per nation per day.

Where's the upkeep shown, everything is labeled as resources. Closest it gets is milcashcost which I assume is the cost of buying units.

Upkeep isn't shown, I just gave the net figures.

All upkeep is already included in the net numbers.

Should include that so people don't assume it's just of the numbers shown. :P

It's truly incredible how much effort you put into deepthroating NPO and acting as if you have any intelligence.

First, Everyone used the Stats
Then, Everyone Mocked the stats,
Now, We have devolved into arguing what is included in the stats against stats that where posted by MRBOOTY.
Next we're going to be arguing if the . or , is the right separator for the place mark. Is it 1.000.000,00 or 1,000,000.00

Half of your active wars are negative net damage, so perhaps you should refine your strategy chief.

Victory!

You have defeated your opponent by decreasing their Resistance to 0! You looted $9,564,229, 122 Coal, 9 Oil, 411 Uranium, 135 Iron, 83 Bauxite, 316 Lead, 278 Gasoline, 83 Munitions, 230 Steel, 37 Aluminum, and 47,368 Food. You also destroyed 4% of the infrastructure in each of their cities. Additionally, you have looted 0.07% of your opponent's alliance bank, taking: $57,804, 0 Coal, 0 Oil, 0 Uranium, 0 Iron, 0 Bauxite, 0 Lead, 0 Gasoline, 0 Munitions, 0 Steel, 0 Aluminum, and 0 Food.

 

Maybe I should refine my strategy.

Yes I was clearly referring to raiding a zeroed inactive for loot as bad.

Certainly wasn't wondering why you'd bother keeping enough score to get downdec'd, and then nuking the guys that did it for -4.5m net damage a hit. When all you really needed to do is run a single boat to do that same looting.

Going into 8 wars at once will do that ? and damage is irrelevant at this point.
