Alright, I'll change it.

2x Norinco Class Battlecruisers please!

As soon as the Aequatian Navy gets its order filled, yours will be filled and the ships will be sent to your nation.

Oh yes and 2 aircraft carriers. Greater Torwissen lacks them..... :cry:

The same goes for the Carriers, we're the priority customer since the corporation is owned by the government. But as soon as the slips are finished building our Navy's ships, they'll begin construction of ships for your Naval Forces.

Hi I'm new to this game but very interested in buying military equipment. I was just wondering how you actually purchase them and how you use money and stuff. Could anyone help?

To buy things, you wire money to the nation selling whatever it is you're buying.

However, judging by your nation's economy... I doubt that you would be able to afford battlecruisers and aircraft carriers let alone up-to-date military equipment.

I know that it says "Economy: Weak" but how do you:

a) find out exactly how much you have?

b) make your economy higher?

Due to you having just over 1 Billion, I will give you 5 Billion to spend in either The Pheonix Milita's storefronts, City of Freedom's or my naval one.

Enjoy, and remember, it is ROLE PLAY. Just make it up :)

Thanks that's really cool, how did you work that out? I'm sorry if it's a really obvious answer or that there is a link somewhere that I haven't noticed it's just that I only woke up about an hour ago or something like that.

Ok so that list tells me what I can buy, but how do I buy it and where from?

Its role play. You just say you want to buy it, and you do!! Its also best to keep a record of how much money you have. I think with you you get the amount Pipian says per day. Or at least I hope :)

Through issues that deal with business or the economy itself, choose the pro-business motion, and you're economy will increase.

Took me a long time to get to frightening, but I did get there.
16-11-2003, 14:13
It took New Chelsea little time to be frightning but ever since I breathed life in my ex-nation, Torwissen, my heart sinks to see basket case :cry: . Thank god it is GREATER Torwissen, not just Toriwssen. :wink:

You know the uranium under the forest issue? How many times do you get that. Long time ago, I foolishly choose the keep the trees case... :cry:

Pro-business motion? Sorry to seem like a right dum-a$$, but what does that mean? I probably do already know this but my brain still isn't working properly yet (It's only 13:30 on a Sunday!). How do I know when I get one of these kind of issues? All mine seem to be about Harry Potter or nudity or even one about TV soaps. I know that I'm going completely off the subject of the thread but I don't see the point in creating a new thread just for this.

When you go to choose what decision your government is going to make on the issue, look at the one which business and corporations would want you to make, like letting them donate money to political parties or privatising things like your beaches instead of letting your government do it and lowering taxes. You basically want to be more Right-Wing to be pro-business and to have a strengthened economy, although you can be center or left wing and still have a strong economy, but right wing is the way to go for business.

Hoped that helped in some way, I don't feel I've given you a proper answer and I'm going to get flamed by someone who knows the game better than I do.

Hi thanks I think that might help :? . Is there no other way? I really don't like right-wingers. I'll try it though. Thanks again.
