2) Do I have OK connected resources?
3) What are your recommendations as to the future of my nation?
4) Adequate military? Too little? Too much? What to get if I need more?

[Ganon5]

Lamentations: Tax rate 28% NAO! Sign up for a harbor grant (although you may have to wait a bit I'm not sure) then aim for the fast food construction and beer bonus resources. In the mean time, see if you can drop silver and lead for wheat, fish, spices or gems, Don't worry too much about military yet, just aim to keep your (soldiers) around 30-40% of your working citizens. Same goes with planes, don't spend a lot on them until you can get level 9s

Nitemarebforcrismas: What Dagny said. Also your tax rate should be 28% regardless of losing happiness

[Lamentations]

Cheers mate, but what if I am stuck with lead (with trees, as it is an alliancemate trade so I don't wanna fuck the bloke over)?

I should learn fast, but I will ask many questions before then, so bear with me if you can

Tax rate 28%!
Switch to Monarchy unless your people want Capitalism or Republic.
I'd sell the tanks, unless you plan to raid.
Work your trades out better.
Focus on infra building.  Get a trade set that does that.
Spend no money on tech yet.
I'd sell your planes too.

[Mr_Cynic]

Wrong about planes, Connor.  And as for changing the trade, give the guy a several day warning.

[Suini]

also nitemare, drop your tanks and CM's enless you're planning on being in a war soon, for CM's you can buy them then launch um, and tanks are an unnecessary burden on bills when you're not in war.

2nd as said tax should be 28% always....

3rd, you have a bit to much land i believe, with water you get an extra 50people per mile bonus before they get angry, so only buy land when it goes red on your view nation screen.

and as said government should be monarchy(or revolutionary government if you're people want that, i find the bonus to enviroment=less the +1 happiness from my people wanting revolutionary government)

but you do have the best trades...lucky bastard

[bioakky]

tonicsturbation

lol

[Sir Gerald Goldberg]

Whats your efficency? To me thats all that matters... if you don't know what efficency is its I believe: Average NS increase daily.

AT ONE TIME: old nation: I had like a 1,500 Efficency after 2 weeks in the game and then I was attacked.

[Lamentations]

OK I have acquired a harbour and am now sorting out my trades. Trying to get those resources you suggested, but between the inactives and just plain ol' jerks (aka people who don't need my resources) it can take a while if I want the team bonus (which I do, fyi).

Buying up some good ol' architecture and not much else right now. I think after bills and then taxes I end up with like 90k, but I spend 50k of it and leave the rest so I can be sure to pay the bills the next time before getting taxes (in case I have spare cash and increase stuff between it, so I get more money).

AT ONE TIME: old nation: I had like a 1,500 Efficency after 2 weeks in the game

oh yeah well my penis is bigger than yours, so there.

[Ganon5]

Efficiency doesn't matter in the short term. A 1 week old nation who got 3m in aids and spent it all on tech will have a great efficiency but it doesn't make their nation any good.

[Kaiser]

Your goverment should be monarchy, Your improvements are just...*shakes head* and your resources suck, though that is understandable as you have silver and furs.

[Ganon5]

Dood u need wunders! Or is that what you're saving up for? You should try 1 or 2 border walls. Just make sure you collect more taxes after you buy each one. Rest is good and you already knew that >_>

[Chuck Normis]

I am confused...why is monarchy so good??? why iss it worth losing happiness over it?

[Ganon5]

I am confused...why is monarchy so good??? why iss it worth losing happiness over it?

It gives +1 happiness to counteract it. The -infra cost is the best bonuse from a government

[Chuck Normis]

it does give +1 happiness to counter act it?? that's good. It must be really good when your citizens really want that government


I will change it now. Thanks

[Chuck Normis]

I lost happiness...but what ever. As long as it helps...
