Attend. As a whole, making the other alliances angry, (say, because we didn't show up) would be a bad idea at this stage, plus, we might get some concessions if you word it right.

I like how I can win a war and: "Otherwise a slow news day..."

Agree, plus that's about the LAST thing *I* want to see from this kind of game - author spending valuable development time on useless graphics.

On a different note, how is our chain of command going to work? We probably are going to need to figure that out at some point.

Probably in the process of switching the server over, so that should only be temporary. Anyway, This should lead you back to the main game page.

bloc.name works as well. I think he just switched over from the convoluted bloc.name/namebloc/bloc/name/blocname.bloc.php/bloc

Argh, stupid people recruiting 10+ men into the army after I reduced them to under 4k but was unable to attack because my army 'needed to reorganize'...

Now I've got no advantages besides 1k men! Before, I at least had some decent training. Not to mention all that recruiting dropped my growth to -2...

Why must war be the only good way to increase GDP in this game?

Don't attack active players with plenty of spare growth, what did you expect them to do other than immediately recruit more troops so as to not lose? Wars not the only good way to increase GDP, having 20 growth would really probably be faster early on, you only get 25% of a country's gdp when you invade them and that usually takes at least 2 turns.

Plus, wars are great... until you either:
A) Look at your reputation and realize you are Axis or Mad.
B) Look at who you are fighting, and realize you attacked someone with low reputation to raise your own, but they are active and going to curb stomp you without help from your alliance.

After getting really close to becoming axis of evil, I think I am done with wars for now. I have 25k troops at elite level, and hopefully an airforce after the next turn, so I will just let stability make my growth hit 15+ before I decide to even think about wars. Plus, I need to get my tech level up, cause 25k troops is nothing at higher GDP levels.

edit: FUUU I WISH WE COULD FIGHT PEOPLE IN THE AU.

I would eat this guys squishy GDP for breakfast. Sadly I would then be curbstomped. The ONLY good targets are in the AU or another huge alliance.

How much does a great leap forward make everyone hate you? Or, if it's a percentage chance of increasing growth/being hated, what're the chances?

Is elite training really worth it? I currently have 33k troops at undisciplined rabble, and am spending my money towards the tech (have like 6/40 I think). Also got a meagre airforce, and the soviet union just put me 10% of the way towards chemical weapons, surprisingly.

From my understanding, the chances are actually just +1 growth, no growth, and -1 growth.
