Sorry, my math is not working out :(

Can someone please tell me what the basic nuke upkeep per day is (non-adjusted) for 20 nukes and again for 25 nukes.

I read it was 5,000 per day for one nuke with a 5% increase per nuke after that. That would mean that for 20 nukes it should be 10K per nuke per day or 200K or for 25 nukes it should be 11250.

But this 5% increase per nuke is not even close to what I am seeing. So either I TOTALLY misunderstood what I read or I am just being plain stupid with my math (after my day at work this is totally possible).

I appreciate any assistance you guys can offer.

Thanks.

The upkeep cost increases by 10% of the base upkeep cost for every nuke after your first. 20 nukes = +190% -> 290% of $5000 = $14500 per nuke.

It's actually 10% for every nuke.

See here: http://www.cybernations.net/about_topics.asp#Nuclear_Weapons

this is the formula I use:

total upkeep = 10000*(1 + (n - 1)/10)

uranium multiplies it by 50%, lead by 80%

Hmm, dont know why I was thinking it was 5%.

Thanks.

So at 20 Nukes is 145000 and 25 nukes would be 17,000. Is there any reason why a nation would be stuck at 34,000 per nuke?

upkeep doubles if you don't have a uranium source either via trade or as a basic resource
