Nice job. Nothing jumps out at me as being off. I guess your next step is adding a small airforce.

Best of luck to you building up your military.

It wasnt really roleplay, I was checking with other players OOC that this is reasonable for a country of this size and that everything seems to be arranged OK. I like doing this kind of thing so I may as well get it right :).

Actually I forgot to add the airforce, its 50 home-designed fighter/bombers and 10 bigger planes I bought, mainly for use as bombers.

It got moved anyway. Oh dear...

EDIT: Heres the entry for the airforce:

Airforce:

50* GO-07 Mountain Fighter Bombers
10* PEA-23 Fighter Bombers (mainly being used as bombers)

Also note that as a lot of this stuff is being home designed, hardly any of it is built or even designed yet.
