Well if you haven't noticed yet you will soon. Your economies are going to be hurting a bit more. Admin has increased the cost of some planes (maybe all), cost and upkeep of nukes and CM's, as well as increasing the cost of several improvements to include Factories and Labor Camps.

@GoD: Keep working on those trades but don't start offering money. Aqua is a good color with 2,500+ nations on it. It would also help if you formed some kind of cohesive government to send out ambassadors. There are a number of alliances in Aqua such as The Aquatic Brotherhood which can help you out if you only made an official offer toward them. This game is very heavily steeped in politics and intrigue. It's hard to operate as a serious alliance when you don't have a charter or interact with other alliances. Have you guys even posted on the CN forums that you are an alliance? How much do you guys interact with the CN forum? Did you know one of the top alliances (FAN) is at war with pretty much the rest of Planet Bob? I just took down 4 of them before withdrawing from the war to make the 2999 infra jump.
