Yessssss .. but .. having no NE has its recruitment and citizenship bonuses - literally.

I actually voted for an infin article!

TJ,, how does having no NE have recruitment and citizenship bonuses? Active players don't want to live in a pacifist country with no wars.

Mack hasn't been an eAus cit for ages and infin. You will find, him, Sav and Henry are not cits because of the resource bonus overseas, not the 0.5 str bonus.

Larni I know the reason because I have been told personally by both Sav and Mack about their reason why so shut ya pie hole.

I didn't leave Aus, I just changed citizenship 😛

Making 20 Q5 tanks a day at each of my tank companies is more of the reason. Also didn't sav leave for other reasons???

No doubt the resource bonus is also important but 0.5 strength is money for jam. And I don't own companies CBF

now now infin, even Mack just said you were wrong. The strength bonus is nice but its not a deal breaker.

Considering our NE options its a lot wiser move for us not to do anything with it until we have a clear vision of what we want to do.

If you feel the need I suggest you move to an allied nation, as many others have done. We won't hold it against you, done it a few times myself.

the solution to all our problems
a training war, with ..eIndo
😃D

strength is boss

First of all, you know the answer to this 😛.
secon😛 The current nations we can NE atm are: Indonesia, New Zealand and Argentina.

Indonesia: They are core ONE nation and Australia has had a lot of bad blood with them. There is almost no trust between the two people and in this day, where anyone could simply add 1 million onto a mini battle. It could turn nasty and led to a re-wipe.

New Zealan😛 The previous few training wars has lead of a lot failures. On paper Australia and NZ is pretty similar, but there has been a lot of communication errors in the past. New Zealand has worked with Indo in the past to drain and wipe us. Things has changed slightly now that we are out of Eden, but there possibilities of TW will need more careful planning (if there is one)

Argentina: Argentina is currently NE with Spain in the big alliance war. I do not think i would be smart to NE them and be involved in the bigger scale of things personally. The old saying "if you play with fire, you might get burnt"

srg91 please do not use logic to derail infin's whinge article : P

I prefer the thrills of winning and losing, rather than waking up each day to same ol' same ol'. Oh I yearn for the days of SC when we actually had proper training wars.

you mean before he robbed us blind?

but infin, the peace with eIndo is what you have been wanting for almost a year.

You need to make up your mind and stick to it.

😁

Resources > .5 strength

Doesn't have to be Indo, just sayin'. I think a permanent NE with NZ is the best outcome. It will go up and down but we are well-matched.

Oh and I like the "Too hard" atttitude from everyone!

NZ would be better

Is it more boring when we do something and have regions or when we do nothing and have no region?
Its not a matter of too hard. It is about feasibility.
With the new bonus, our tax has seen a tiny increase atm. This suggests that more and more citizens are purchasing once again.
We are trying to do our best to make this country grow again. NE will be apart of it in the long run, but it is not something we should be looking right now.

srg don't be a baby, NE NZ for fuck sake, if we had a senator it would have been done already.
You cry about strength all the time.

If Plato took 182.5 strength of you every year and not everybody else you would scream.

Politics holds no place in erep anymore, it's purely strength and war, we are a small nation and need all the help we can get.

182.5 strength = 13.87 golds
(climbing centar ratio)

I think that an NE TW would be a good idea but we have to be cautious about it all. I mean we have only just gotten some of our regions back and if we get wiped then you'll see more people defect to countries with bonuses.

If you want NE

First of all, I dont cry about my strength as much as you assume. Second, I am trying to look after the welfare of an entire nation, not a few elites who wanna catch up with the top players.

"Politics holds no place in erep anymore, it's purely strength and war, we are a small nation and need all the help we can get. "

Politics was the thing that got us 5 regions with eIndo, not military might henry. Dont give me bs about how it doesnt work in this game anymore. Do your research then talk about stuff. Simple as that.

An NE is on the cards, but can't be rushed into. Rest assured that we will be pursuing this. We've been discussing the issue over the last couple of days in the Cabinet irc room.

Lets PTO the kiwis, they need a good kicking

I guess eAussies would prefer to play Farmville rather than a war game ....

I don't really give a shit, honestly.

lol
My people don't whinge like this and we have been without NE longer than you have. 0.5 str bonus is nothing.
But we're here if you want to talk about it.

everyone can get NE bonus then? is it that hard to comprehend??? /facepalm sure sometims the TW goes off the rails but it all washes out.

let me guess srg91, your favourite ice cream flavour is vanilla?

"lol

Oh bullshit and you know it, i had lengthy talks with your Defense leaders on numerous occasions on how badly they needed NE for strength while their Serbian cousins were starting to leave them behind in strength, we were even NE'd without our consent because NZ just "had to have" the 0.5 strength.

This whole game is flawed but the only thing you can't cheat on or buy is strength, therefore the longer you miss out the further you get behind, simple.

Of course you can buy strength by using all the gold trainers. Its just you can only buy a little bit each day.

Lets be honest.. Its not about 0.5 strength - We are boared here in eAus.. Nothing to actually play for - apart for fighting for alies that generally didnt help us in the past.

Winning or loosing for your country is what the game is about now. The excitement of actually winning.. Remember Peru? Good fun and we did it as a nation on a number of occasions.

So, what do we do while we wait for something to happen? Leave? I'm an Aussie so here is home (Brazil would make a nice holiday)

NEED SOME FUN SOON!

Make a deal with eIndo that we can fight in SA. They will always win, but you never know. With team work we might WIN - then they will take it back. We dont need a NE to get the fun back in the game!

EXACTLY MGB, it's ok to have a little friendly competition but don't shake things up too much. Everyone is meant to have some FUN, it's like it's super serial every time the wrong country wins a SINGLE mini battle. Chill the F&^% down people.

and dont forget, the missions N.E for the news players

You do realise if we open a war with Indo we will be wiped, time and again we have seen that no matter how often people on every side say it is a TW it always gets out of hand as allies come into it. We can counter the NZers but Indo, no chance.

We can have a TW with NZ once things have settled (as srg has said), just seems this is pointless point scoring over a small issue they are already moving to address.

😁 This

MGB Guy is spot on, we need to either have a personal war or not be dictated on where we fight, after all Indo has shown to take on the big boys and actually hold their own, why would they care what damage we throw on top at them ..... unless we do actually put up a good fight in their opinion and they know we can kick ass if we want to.

Either way it gets boring and extra resources don't mean anything if we don't get to use them, I say we NE NZ ..... but also being able to set orders for our Bro's would also be nice.

Just get something sorted ASAP 😛😛

I would like to say that it is nice being at peace... the feeling of getting up in the morning knowing that ur nation hasn't been wiped off the map.
However, I would in some ways agree with MGB (and Scotty), mostly because our epic struggle with eIndo has been going on for so long. (and in some ways made the game what it is for me).
I do however think that a well thoughtout TW with NZ woudl nice...

peace is sooooo exciting. i wake up, work, train, kill 25 enemies of allies. done.

Some good points here.

I think Yioryos point about new players is important.

When starting out .5 strenth bonus seems like a lot. Also the missions are important.

But the fact that Aus is between Indo and NZ puts us in a very bad spot. Don't know if there is a right decision.

"New Zealan😛...but there possibilities of TW will need more careful planning" go, make a plan and realize it, with so many people in gvt you can do it...if you need help i,m here too

What about South Africa? Would Indo region swap (salt for salt) so that Aus could NE South Africa?

AL you are assuming that Indonesia considers Aus friendly & would be interested.
They don't & they also don't consider it in their interest to allow Australia any benefit
