For ocne, I agree with Rasputin. We can accept his calculator if we want to be strictly realistic, or we can use xiaodave's prposed system if we want to make things easier for small nations. However, virtually anything is better than the one Squeblish tried to use.

Look, I'm all for a military calculator. I think Ras has put alot of work into it. I'm just suspicious with the kinds of numbers it seems to put out.

But if it's used as a justification for Auldoninna holding its own against Al Mastif on Al Mastif's side of the world, then it's not an alternative to god-modding, it is god-modding.

Countries who don't appear to have a second, or third, industry really suffer.

B!tch, b!tch...
xiaodave's one would probably be best, as far as I'm concerned, although it reduces my advantage against Raspie considerably.

Actually, Al Mastif would probably be able to steamroller whatever Raspie tried to put in Apolyton Orii, regardless of the calculator used.

not exactly, it only helps if you have AM or U as 2nd industrys..

if you have the weaker industrys as 2nd or 3rd it could actually harm your numbers...

No, but being on 'home turf', and actually being able to conduct free and open tactics, unimpeded by 100000000000000 miles of treacherous ocean pretty much does.

Actually, Al Mastif doesn't favour 'mob tactics', as has been 'adequately' shown in FCL.

shucks as that region is now mine and under my control, i dont need as much supply.... pleant of resources and such like avaialble there.

We are moving our people into the region as fast as we can, was getting very crowded on our island home anyway.

AS for supply i havent been bad this time and sent millions of soldiers , just 4-6 divisions total so far. I was hoping to get some respect for doing that but no , oh well.

And from what i can see no action has occured yet that deems a huge military build up. and i would hope that if squib attacks that others would see this as an aggresive thing and take appropiate action.

You can hardly deploy any more, can you?
You've already got heaps in FCL, probably some in Tassadaria, and maybe some in Boondi (haven't been paying much attention recently).

Oh, and you do realise that you may soon be fighting two wars at once, don't you?

I haven't seen anyone saying you sent too many troops to be realistic; they're just not going to be enough to hold off Al MAstif if they decide to pulverise them.

Numbers in Azan reduced to allow them to goto the oil state.. None in Boondi war. We got some agents there that all...

Possibly, but in relaity we would stop one war to fight the other...
