3BR on Orange Team: We recently lost a trade partner and need Pigs and Fish only to complete the circle! Please reply here, or message the nation below for details Ruler: Ivegottheskill Nation Name: Dystopia Planitia Thanks

Hello to any current / former TOP people still here. I've only just made a new nation after losing mine back in 2011-ish, this was sometime after the Bipolar War and move to Pink team. Unfortunately I messed up a tax collection, and just kind of gave up on CN at that point due to the time and work needed to rebuild from scratch My forum name and ruler name was Ivegottheskill, and nation name was Sequestra

A fair proposal and a great showing of diplomatic cohesion between all alliances who co-signed this offer, well done to the leadership involved

o/ OG Welcome to the battlefield, classy announcement as always. May the outcome be as you hope

o/ NSO Ballsy and honorable; mere Jedi would have sat this out

I'm pleased to see this treaty come to fruition. Special mention for Kiss Goodbye and Baron de Standersted who I know put much diplomatic effort into this treaty. May both TOP and OBR move onward and upward.

I second this suggestion of colonising the sun. We could mine raw nuclear explosions Added benefits would be doubled nuke power and ability to control global warming

I wouldn't call it hate; generally speaking I've rarely see NAPs signed by alliances in CN in recent times. The most commonly signed treaties usually contain non-aggression clauses anyway (e.g. MDPs, MDoAPs, ODPs). I tend to see ODPs (or PIATs as Drakedeath pointed out) being used in the place of NAPs now for starting off friendships as they are not totally binding, but they also express a strengthening level of agreeability between two alliances. o/ Streamlining

Welcome aboard Argent. This will make it much more difficult for us to betray The Grämlins now Our castle is going to need some renovations... o/ Citadel

o/ TOP members past and present Proud to be part of this great group. Also, nice pip

As a member of TOP, I value the treaties we have and I reject your disgust with the OUT. I am proud of the tough decision TOP made in what is irrefutably tough times; during a war where friends stand on both sides. May we fight well and with honor. Best of luck to our friends and respect to our foes. Paradoxia Vult!

Bump. Found someone with Oil and Lead. Still need: Coal - Iron - Gems - Fish -

My current TC has fallen apart somewhat. New TC will be made with the remaining members (reliable people). We're currently on Orange, but are flexible.

I agree with both 1st and 2nd posts. Makes little sense that "tech dealing" would (or should) happen in such a way (i.e. smaller, technologically backward countries selling tech to big countries to make them 'smarter' and more advanced) But it's also a simple and economically useful way to do this in this game :-/

Here comes the ZI j/k

FF, Const and Beer is the best long term set, especially while still buying infra, but I think the Affluent, FJ and Fast Food set gives the highest raw income. Do the math with your nation's current income and expenses to work it out.

I think there are more bad events than good events. Or at least, that's the way it seemed when my nation was new and I collected everyday. I think 5-10% chance of an event at collection is a reasonable assumption. Although the recent events I had were awesome. I had a +15% pop event and a +3 happiness event both at the same time

I didn't used to pay any attention to in-game politics until fairly recently. It seemed boring and really messy to me at the time

My nation is smaller than yours and LC swapping is worth it after 1 day of taxes. That quickly becomes >17million after 19 days. You might be doing it inefficiently

Try using this site to check out trade bonuses. It's outdated now due to the changes to FJ and AP though: http://www.mrfixitonline.com/cyber_nations...ecalculator.php

As a nation with gold and wine, I must say this is awesome

I think when 0 soldiers are reached, the nation should have a "militia" defence, which would still enable enemies raiding abilities on land and tech etc, but would also result in a reduction in attack effectiveness (if only for tanks). My reason being that militia normally are either guerilla fighters or used in urban warfare which often incurrs higher tank and soldier losses than open battles.

I'm at 2999 infra with Gold and Wine, and I was considering deleting for better resources Oddly enough, the thought of "playing with the cards dealt" helped me to decide to keep my comparitively bad resources. Finding trades (especially reliable trades) is a lot harder, but does kind of add an additional challenge to the game. Also, if everyone keeps restarting, our resources will be in short supply
