So you will blow 180 mill of your WC You have just conducted a spy operation against the nation of United Force. In the attack your spy efforts were successful as your spies were able to gather the following information about the nation: Total Money: [b]$275,680,530[/b] Somehow if you come out of pm you wont put up much of a fight regardless, especially if people spy away what little you have of a WC.

[quote name='Alterego' date='21 July 2010 - 02:20 PM' timestamp='1279747214' post='2383278'] Yeah I spied on him earlier and was going to post something like that. However he needs 2 months and 10 days to buy the pentagon and WRC. If he gets his trades sorted he should be able to make over $400m during that 70 day period. Add his spare $95m after buying wonders and he should have half a billion when he comes out of peace. Its not the greatest ever warchest or anything but it could make a dent over a 6 week period. [/quote] Accounting, or not for the PM collection penalty? Because I know too many to list here that would mobilize in a second if he were out of PM.... Actually, its 40 days... 10 more before he can get a Pentagon, and another 30 to get the WRC....

[quote name='Schattenmann' date='19 July 2010 - 11:28 PM' timestamp='1279607266' post='2380174'] Most spheres seek to minimize raids in their back yard. For example, P.E.A.C.E: "II) Prohibition against “raid*” style warfare against any Purple Sphere nation." NOIR has similar provisions along with other spheres. We are Red, Red is our concern, not other spheres. [/quote] The difference is, NOIR and P.E.A.C.E. are prohibitions on *signatory* alliances raiding in a certain sphere. \m/ and GOONS are not signatory to NOIR, and they're free to raid black as much as they want. That is a key difference. PC can't sign a treaty with \m/ that says you have to give me 10k tech, any more than you can say we can't raid red.

[quote name='Thunder Strike' date='19 July 2010 - 10:27 PM' timestamp='1279603655' post='2380055'] Where is the DoW on all those mentioned alliances? [/quote] I suspect that its not likely to happen... given that it would be akin to what started off the last big war (which I think of as the Facepalm War, because of the reasons that Polar/TOP declared on \m/ and CnG). To the OP: Really in order to block someone from raiding on any colour, it must be either in their alliance's charter, or in a treaty they signed, otherwise, you're being just as bad -- if not *worse* than you peg the raiders as being.

Odd... I found no one in range.... That didn't already have three defensive wars, anyway.

As I understand it: Its one's nation's happiness rating multiplied by two. Monetary boosts from either resources or certain wonders are added, then the whole collection of stuff is multiplied by your resource, improvement, and wonder income modifiers. I'm not sure what other factors effect income, but events often have an impact, either through economic devastation, or boon. (More seriously, events play a smaller role in the developed nation's economy.)

To send aid: You click on the "Aid" button at the top of their nation screen. Also, you can't send aid to some within ten days of either you sending aid to them, or them sending aid to you. Basically, in a typical 1x1 $3 million/100 tech deal: Nation A sends money to Nation B; then ten days later, Nation B sends tech to Nation A; And another ten days later still, Nation B sends tech to Nation A again. Other patterns are possible, such as the 1x1 3m/150 tech, or the 3x3 3m/100 tech (that works by doing everything on the same day). If you look at [url=http://www.cybernations.net/nation_drill_display.asp?Nation_ID=279161]my nation[/url], at the top of the page, you'll see the tab buttons for "Standard Display", "Extended Display", "Search Wars", "Search Aid", and "Charts". Below those you'll see links for "Message", "Declare War", "Trade" "Aid", "Spy", and "Make Donation". The one you want for sending aid is the one labeled "Aid". From there there's a screen to select what you're sending. The first line is "Reason". Then the next two (which can't be edited) or offering party, and the "receiving party". The fourth line is "money offered", that has a limit of three million, (4.5 million if both have a certain wonder). The fifth line is "tech offered", that has a limit of 50 tech at a time. And the sixth line is "soldiers offered", that has a limit of 2,000 at a time. Finally, you must have at least the amount of the item you're offering in order to be able to send the aid. In other words, if you have 49.9 tech, you can't send 50.

Now, it *was* referenced [url=http://forums.cybernations.net/index.php?showtopic=87133]here[/url], but not fully addressed. I use saved nations quite a bit, but I also find the pop-down menus a little sluggish (and annoying) for my liking. Before, saved nations were directly linked from the nav-menu. Just a "put saved/blocked (were blocked ones there before?) nations back in the direct menu for people who for whatever reason(s) disabled 'popup navigation'." request/bug report. Edit: Wouldn't the two clicks (one to get to profile, and one to open saved nations) count as two clicks -- versus the one click to get to saved nations from the old arrangement?
