A constant problem! I have plenty of Medium level workers, and not enough low level workers!


What workers go to the army to be soldiers?

I know that officers are medium level managers.

I know that officers are medium level managers.

Low level workers become soldiers I think. If you need more low level workers (and have a lot of high level workers), use effectivity upgrades in your corporations. They free up low level workers but use more high level workers.

what about medium level workers? where can I stuff them?

[Malleus]

Couple things...there is promotion of workers up the food chain: lower to middle to high. In the case of high, as I understand it, they only come from middle level.

Middle level managers become officers in your army.
Low level workers become soldiers in your army.

The limiting factor in most agressive play is not enough officers.

I've got plenty of Unis, I can churn them out in droves, and change hiring for my Corps. as well.

War Clouds begin to form, around me. I am currently between two countries at war ( member of the same federation, btw! ).

I am thinking of joining on one side.
It seems very tempting. But then again, it will send my economy down the crapper.

[Datajack Franit]

Remember what happened to Franit Empire and make up your mind

[Az]

Oh, btw, how is Franit doing?

you didn't quit did you?

[Datajack Franit]

no! I cannot give up because some stupid foreign country crashed my economy

(btw_ in this very moment I'm chatting with a gorgeous guy on icq and I still wonder why every single human being who happens to be cute is goddamn stupid as well )

Franit Empire raised its taxes to 50%- corporations are still going pretty good, except some weak ones that I expect to go bankrupt soon- as long as I build more and more clothes companies and keep upgrading it's ok

My govt index is still around 24 and nobody knows when this will change I noticed apolyton federation has LOTS of new members!

[dudemanjack]

The military buildup in Mentop has now begun. I plan on building up my defenses first to a reasonable level, then to build up the offense.

I have my eye on a few countries that border Mentop and will hopefully be able to add them to the Apolyton Empire...I mean federation...

A benefit of having 2 countries under the same login (ie: when you capture another country) is that you can transfer money, weapons and people from one country to the other.

For me, that means my main country is growing by its standard growth rate + 25,000 people each month. I haven't transferred any money or weapons yet as I wanted to experiment with pulling a pathetic computer country up out of a hole it has dug itself into.

And since I discovered that highschools, not primary schools train teachers (thanks Malleus) my education index in the slave country is rising decently. My corps are chugging along improving quality/effectivity, but most don't have full staff yet. Once my education is decent, I'll begin staffing the corps fully. Social security is around 24% at the moment.

Good luck with your military conquests, DMJ.

[dudemanjack]

Thanks. I'm a little worried since the computer countries around me have defense indices in the 90's for some reason...I think they used to be player-run. One of them has 13 million people though

[Skanky Burns]

Nice high population.

For general information purposes, the largest population of computer-controlled countries is in The Republic of Umerna, with 19,345,437.

[Az]

It probably has lots of real ****ty indices to scare people from taking it.



Oh, A market tip for you guys.

Cable TV is now in fashion. Build a corp or two of those.

[Lemmy]

meh...first i want to get rid of my debt, it seems like i'm finally making a profit now that i've 2 Services companies.
My Internet companies profits have gone down a bit it seems.
The High Tech Services also isn't having the best profits now, but it's still a profit, and every little bit helps now.
Maybe once i've payed off half my loan (50 bil) i'll start another company.
