Possibly 48-60 hours. Either way, No need to start warring on someone just yet. Farming is a lot less painful when they don't have troops.

Basically what we want to do is use the guy as a ladder. slowpoke beats on him, then you beat on him, then I beat on him. Raise ourselves up while sinking him, without giving him time to recover in the meanwhile.

Would it be safe to fight a war with this nation? My own nation, for comparison.

Damn. It said they recently lost a war, which means I can't attack them. How long will I have to wait until I can attack?

Portland has unfortunately lost the upper hand against the oppressors of Watermelonia. Granted, attacking someone with twice my GDP wasn't my most brilliant move, but I get the feeling that this dumb war will drag on for quite a while. Anything you guys have to offer would be hugely appreciated, and I'll pay it back when it's over.

I believe the grace period is 2 days.  On a related note, how bad is the rep hit from attacking Good nations?

Attacking a Ghandi-like nation as a Ghandi-like nation knocked me down to Angelic, so enough to knock you down at least one reputation status.

One rep down, I believe. I went from Normal to Questionable just now by attacking a Gandhi nation.

Ghandi-like is actually about one and a half, I think. (Hence people getting screwed by skipping right from pariah to mad dog)

This is a mistake, always have AT LEAST ~16k troops, more as your GDP goes up. Unless you decide to be online right before every single turn change, all it takes is someone declaring war on you shortly before turn change and then finishing you off slightly after. On the other hand, I recommend doing this yourself for easy GDP.

When does the turn turn over? I think it was every 12 hours right? But at what times?
