I read on the official forum that the dev changed the growth decline. Now instead of growth above 3% declining there is a sliding scale starting to decrease growth above 20 a month.

[WealthyRadish]

My current strat is to raise stability while in the cushy nooby period, gimping growth with military expansion, and then spam humanitarian at the last minute for rapid growth.

[Scelly9]

So, what should I have before attempting to start a war?

[Mono124]

Thing is, at above 14k troops you can be attacked. I'm currently at 107 GDP and have 8 growth, so next turn in a couple hours I will be at 115. I'll probably sell blood diamonds again even though my QoL is poor (I just built a hospital hopefully that will help) and will build up 20k troops asap, as well as keep my growth at a stable level where it shouldn't decrease unless I do something to decrease it (whatever that might be).

[Remuthra]

If all goes well I should have 8 growth and 121 GDP at the end of the turn. Should I focus on Quality of Life or GDP after that?

AFAIK a low quality of life means if someone is looking for a squishy nub target, yours will be that much more enticing... but I think trying to keep both going up, even if it means one is going up only a little, is probably a good idea.

That's good to know... fortunately demobilizing the military doesn't always increase growth, so I can keep growth at zero and the military at 12k troops.

Edit: Nope, it always increases growth. Oh well, I'll still have plenty of time.

I focus on quality of life because I want my little Aygurs to be healthy and happy. You people sicken me.

[Mono124]

Well, just read the forums and yeah, apparently above 20 growth you will lose it. Time to cut my growth down, raise a ton of troops, then spam humanitarian to get as high of a growth as I can before I hit 115.

edit: and as of right now I have 22k troops. My growth is only 3, so if I manage my money properly I will have about 260k (blood diamonds ftw), or 3 humanitarians, plus 100k during the turn and 2 more at the end of it, so I'll end up having 8 growth at 114 GDP and a niceish sized military.

Glorious People of Hatvia wear regulation hat. What livelihood is there besides wearing regulation hat and working for the betterment of Glorious Leader?

It's Reputation, Qol only has impact on your nation, afaik. But Qol is good for Growth, and stability (especially if authoritarian).

I think the noob protection doesn't work. Or maybe you can abuse it, because you can attack if you have less than 115GDP and 14troops (was at 114, 10k).

Anyway, anyone could lend me some cash ? I'll give it back, but if I could do a lot of spending at once, that'd be great (just warn me before)

Do they have developped quality of life, like the Boscis ?

I just so happen to have almost 100k on hand. Not much, but I'll send it over.

[Mono124]

Alright with my current plan 3 turns from now I will have 122 GDP and 9 growth, as well as a niceish army. I guess that's a fairly good amount of growth considering I have a low GDP.

Edit: And only 10 oil, which means I can't realistically support a growth of over 10. After I get a growth of 10 I will probably focus on getting troops to 30k and trained up, and QoL and stability maxed out.

I'll just wait for the next turn to do Blood diamonds, and then spending everything. Thanks anyway.

Well, I just won my first war, got a nice boost of GDP from it too, and I only lost 3k troops too, compared to the 6k I took out of the enemy.
