Sgt Alvin C York Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 (edited) The best way to earn money is to do tech deals. An alliance helps with this because they will often help organize tech deals, and they will provide you with protection so that you can tech deal without fear of being "tech raided" (the practice of attacking defenseless nations for sport or in order to steal land and tech). In tech deals you typically sell 100 tech for $3m. Going from 0 to 50 tech costs somewhere around $860k (though there are modifiers that affect this). So you spend $1.72m on tech and you receive $3m. It's a win-win situation because it is much more expensive for the nation buying the tech to purchase it for himself, and you get what essentially amounts to free money. However, don't ever buy above 50 tech if you are tech dealing, as tech gets more expensive as the level increases. If you have multiple tech deals to do at once, send the offers to all of them and then just re-buy the 50 tech as they accept. Since you can make $1.28m per deal, and each tech deal requires uses up three slots (over a 30-day period), you can make 1.28*5 = 6.4m over 30 days (the 5 is for five slots, for once you get the foreign ministry). This will help you grow your infrastructure levels quickly. When you're bigger you can get a Manhattan project.

JCFalkenberg Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 I don't have a nuke, I have 18 of them. how willing am I to use them? I used to have 20 and my target didn't have an SDI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goddammit Posted August 25, 2008 Report Share Posted August 25, 2008 I don't have nukes but I voted both options because I could. I used to have them though, on my first nation. I also support the nuking of everything that moves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Statalyzer Posted August 26, 2008 Report Share Posted August 26, 2008 If you attack me I will nuke you. That sort of unrealistic role playing is part of the problem with this game. Any military response is met with nukes flying across the globe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HHAYD Posted August 31, 2008 Report Share Posted August 31, 2008 (edited) LOL, no wonder why so many nukes are being fired every day! Most of the people who own nukes can't hold down their urge to fire a nuke or two... You can't nuke my nation because it is too weak to be nuked! Plus, it isn't much fun to nuke a completely destroyed nation that has already lost over $6.5 million and will lose another $1 million in a stupid war against this other enemy who attacked my nation for no reason... By the way, does anyone here realize each time they fire a nuke, they indirectly affect all of the nations in CyberNation, including his or her own nation from radiation? EDIT: If I get my hands on some nukes, I will shell ALL of them on my old enemies, including the one I am currently fighting right now. Only problem is, I might slammed in the face by any alliance that I will be in... Oh well, is anyone going to risk being nuked back or sanctioned to have some fun with nukes?

Demonic Posted August 31, 2008 Report Share Posted August 31, 2008 if you ansered yes, how many do you own, and how willing are you to use them? if i had a nuke and a random nation attacked me it would not be a good day for them :jihad: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drai Posted August 31, 2008 Report Share Posted August 31, 2008 (edited) I voted yes and no because I could. And because they both applied. I'm able to own nukes and once this war is over I will be able to get them again (surrender terms). I will have 25 due to the Hidden Nuclear Missile Silo. Edit: Oh, and I'm always willing to use them. Edited August 31, 2008 by Drai Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoshuaR Posted September 1, 2008 Report Share Posted September 1, 2008 Well, this is a good example of the types of nations who read this page, generally older nations more invested in the game. NUkes are winning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Manbearpig Posted September 1, 2008 Report Share Posted September 1, 2008 That's because the older nations don't care about the younger nations. They can take an economic hit via environment much easier because they already make such a large amount of money each day. The smaller nations are suffering because when you put a 10% dent into a $200k budget, it hurts. However, a 10% dent into a $3 mil budget is hardly noticeable. In other words: $%&@ YOU GUYS!!!

The smaller nations are suffering because when you put a 10% dent into a $200k budget, it hurts. However, a 10% dent into a $3 mil budget is hardly noticeable. As a matter of fact, the GRL does hit larger nations harder than smaller nations, proportionally. At lower levels, the bills are roughly 10-25% of a nation's income if it has appropriate resources and improvements, while larger nation's bills are usually 40-60% of the income. The "THINK ABOUT THE POOR SMALL NATIONS" argument is frequently moot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
