you can sell you defences? does that include fortifications?

	Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

I don't think fortifications - you can only direct sell your weapons, and it looks like only to other countries. I wonder what the minimum is, because the defense index is 60 (higher than Mentop).

Go to the "trade" section on the left hand side (it's towards the bottom), then click "trade directly with countries and corporations". It's actually a nifty little way to get more money into a second country, as long as you have spare cash (which I have a TON of) in your original country.

Good thinking.

I am actually planning to break off Apolyton, and form a federation with my vassals, or something. When I have vassals, that is.

I'm keeping my main country in Apolyton, while all my vassals will have their own federation.

I think this should actually be a rule, so nobody can swing votes in their favor if they have a huge empire).

Maybe, if most of us will become really kick ass, we will use Apolyton as a world headquarters to coordinate our plans, and to take up arms against the masters of the world, like Derrick chang.

You know, I look at all those indices, and it's rather clear to me now, I've got to build me a Nuclear Missile corporation. I'll build me a couple of batteries, and will just order lots of missiles from them, with contracts.

Replying on Azazel's question: I had to swallow the debt of my electric power corp after all, but that didn't prove to be as much of a problem as I had feared. I'm getting balanced budgets regularily now, the value of my state corps has soared to double the previous record.
I have employment problems though, way too few workers and way too many managers and hi-tech folks. Upgrading corps had had its effect (and I'm continuing with it) but I still have a couple of troublesome companies. (although others are surprisingly profitable, like my 2 household products corps)

My economic strength is still meagre, but I'm on the right track.

Question, is there any point in upgrading quality if you sell most of the production to other state corps? Does the quality of the supplied goods affect the quality of the produced goods?

	31-03-2003 01:42									#464
	Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

That's a very good question, and I don't know the answer. That's why I generally don't do contracts. my own corps are too damn good.

say, Colon, what's the name of your country again? You edited it out in that thread.

Yes, if in order to produce a certain good, you use high quality materials, the produced good will be of an higher quality.

Hey, is anybody in the Lynx Minor continent? Specifically , the Auruga Deserts region? That's where I am and I might need some military backup in about 1 game year if possible, but I don't want the whole fed involved because there aren't many with offensive capability.

This is probably more of a "pre-eventive" strike...heck, a war of aggression, but I believe this particular federation to be a possible threat eventually. They have 2 countries on my border and another close behind.

I just want one of the countries for myself - my partner in crime could keep the other, bordering, country just as long as he/she plans to keep it. I want to surround my main country with slaves/friends.

I just created a heavy tanks corp to supply myself with tanks...offensive AA batteries, and heavy artillery also. However, I built them in other countries with my Enterprise. I plan to build more military corporations also to supply my military needs with contracts.

try to bid at THAT price, I guess.

Ok, I am now switching to a new target, since it appears that the C^3 has purchased some weaponary. Therefore, and due to that fact, It seems that I will attack uncle Joe aka "Heimat Al Kabir".

this guy, it appears, doensn't know that I can see all of his indices.

Azazel: If you're just gonna use tanks, you will need a lot more than 1500. 500 helicopters...

I would buy like 500-600 offensive AA batteries, like 2-3 thousand tanks, and 2-3 thousand heavy artillery.

Attack with the AA batteries, then go in with the tanks/artillery
