OT: Cyber Nation

[President_Elect_Shang]

AT didn't I already send you a guide with all that info? I'm sure I did but if not email me and let me know. Also I haven't received those screen shots.

If you aren't aiming to join in the political intrigue I really don't see what the game has to offer to you. Honestly there is no strategy element at all. There must be a reason for sticking around as opposed to letting your nation expire. So what is that reason; why do you bother to keep playing?

For additional game help and information such as getting over the infra jumps try reading over this thread. It covers trade sets too.

Let me know when you need the aid then. Hopefully you get it sorted out soon.

Thanks AZ. I got a PM off an admin today that said they were going after Agent_Zero, and I, as AgentZero got caught in the crossfire. I've recreated my nation, and the admin said they'd provide whatever assistance I needed to get back up & running, so I told them to just give me a buttload of infrastructure and money. Not sure how much I'll get out of them, so I'll wait & see before requesting any help from the Protectorate.

By the by, I've decided to be fairly ruthless about getting my bonuses, so I'm after those resources that will get me what I want. I have a pending agreement for Aluminum & Marble, but if anyone in the Protectorate has: Coal, Gold, Gems, Iron, Oil, Rubber, or Silver and wants to lay their mits on some Lead & Lumber, send me a proposal & we'll get ourselves sorted.

[NullAshton]

Quite happy with my 7 bonus resources.

Your resources are lead and lumber. What is your main export, pencils?

At least Iron and lead is useful to churn out bullets.

[narf poit chez BOOM]

The lack of pencils would have lead to a noticeable slowdown of our technological progress.

I like building something up from nothing. (My favorite start for SEIV is single planet, low tech.) I'm curious to see how big Fiducia can get before someone notices it. I also feel a sense of loyalty to my alliance and my trade partners.

I played Nation States as well; I dropped that when the events got too repetitive. I agree that CN is more detailed than NS. I didn't join the UN in NS for much the same reasons that I don't read the CN forums.

Would someone be interested in being a middleman for a Technology purchase through me?

I have someone who wants to purchase 40 Technology.

We can discuss the fee.

[AgentZero]

Well, I got a generous donation of money and infrastructure from the admin, I guess. I've bought a harbour and a couple banks, and a big swath of land, since my population density was ~5k per square mile, which seemed like a lot. I've bought as many soldiers as my population will support. Now I'm wondering what I should sink my money into. I've got around 2mil, should I just dump it into infrastructure, or what?

[Atrocities]

YES go for infrastructure and wonders like banks, schools, universities and stadiums. Congrats on getting back up and running. What are your resources? Oh ya, pick up at least 25 top of the line fighters and buy some Tech.

[AgentZero]

I've got me Lead & Lumber, freely available to any WP members that need them.
