Just as an aside. is it possible to stea ltechs in this scenario. if so maybe we should do that and spend a lot less on science and save it for the military.

sorry for a asking a newbie question

We can't steal technology until we get Mossad technology.

Anyway, I suggest we buy at least one tank division next turn, possibly two if the treasury allows. They are very mobile, and would allow more cities to build infantry and not slow artillery.

Indeed, we need tanks next month. I feel in my bones, that with tanks, we will be inspired to a new tradition of running down Palestinians in their homes, which will be very beneficial to the Motherland.

As I said in the turn thread, we have more money now, and I suggest we use it to buy at least two tanks and an airplane (spitfire), or possibly 3 tanks.

Well, our AA has *generally* been coping well with bombers, downing two or three before it's either destroyed (in one case) or the enemy gives up.

However, air support is always handy, especially for reconaissance into enemy territory.

Okay, so the suggestions are either
* 2 T-34's and 1 Spitfire
or
* 3 T-34's

Any other suggestions?


The suggestions will cost 1500/1600$ and I think we can easily afford that now that we got 3000$. We will have much money still to rushbuy. I will also increase the tax-rate this month.

Let us know also about some rush buys in any of the critical sectors such as the Golan, around the Dead Sea and south of Tel Aviv.

3000, can also be used for rush buys in country.

Where did the transport off of Cyprus go?????????????

You Mr. Defense Minister could also start a thread for general things to built as well, not just rush buys.

Anyone, the transport is in square 7,25, and was the first thing flashing when I opened the file.
And the immigrants move now, just click on them.

I moved the transport. When I tried to see how the immigrants moved, I spotted an enemy gunboat off the coast, so I decided to run.

Hehe! Hopefully a smart choise El
Anywho, since our party seems to be the only one who cares I will go with the first option then. And of course, there will be money for rushbuys too..

OK, I understand, do we need to get some cover for that transport?

How about that Gunboat you used two turns ago? Is it healed yet? Will that be enough "muscle" to protect the transport?

It was under immigration command, but it seemed like it was being used to patrol the coast and lebanese gunboats slipped past it.

Actually MR PM, I have an alternate plan.

I believe the Econ Minister and myself should have a combined thread.

Why? Because I think it would work better to have all the discussion on what to buy and what to rush in one thread, since the two topics are intertwined.

I go back to my experience in Red Front. After a while when I was Marshall and Gen Secrty I decreed that all requests for builds and rushes be placed in the Econ Ministers thread. It was just a heck of a lot easier to keep track off and prevented cross posting to two threads for everyone.

So if our esteemed Econ Minister agrees I would prefer to call this the Econ Minister and Defense Minister thread.

(Notice Arthedain, I put your ministry first in the title )

Disposition of forces is up to the COS, El Awrence. Go beg him.

El, I want you to move, and if you think it wise, fight with the tanks before you start the next turn. There's no point in letting them sit out of Tel Aviv for a turn when we can move them.

Also, in general, I want the Defense Minister to see to it that there is no wasted production going on this turn. And someone please tell me why Eilat has no city defenses?????
