you can sell you defences? does that include fortifications?

[dudemanjack]

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).

[Az]

how does one do that?

[dudemanjack]

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.

[dudemanjack]

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).

[Az]

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.

I have a feeling that after a while a bunch of the new people will stop playing, but you never know.

This is a highly addictive game, ones you get the basics. I continuously check the site every couple of minutes.

[dudemanjack]

I've done that recently just because I needed to make sure to buy military products every month, and things of that nature.

[Az]

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?

[Az]

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.

Where did I edit it out?

It's called Menca.
