How to Join the Army {RE-Post}
Rise
This is a re post of Buzzythecat (NCS director) military news and new format along with a pay scale breakdown post by TGM. I suggest all newcomers join the army its extremely beneficial.
(vote this up, we need the newcomers to see this)
Semi-New structure.
The Military is going to go from a strength-based system to an activity-based system. The most active citizens who are above strength level 2 will be assigned to a Marine unit. The citizens who are less active but above strength level 2 will be assigned to an Army unit. Finally the citizens who are below strength level 2, or those of you who are mayors, party presidents, or congressmen with be assigned to a National Guard unit.
I have decided that the cut off for strength would be 2.0 since below that; you really have no hope of winning a fight even with the defender bonus and a Q4 weapon. I have also decided to base the names of the branches off the real world military to avoid confusion (“Is Bravo division the reserves or the back up military?”, What is Charlie division? etc) Now since that is out of the way, we can move on.
Our Generals
DesertFalcon is the General of the US Marine Corps. If you are in a Marine unit, DesertFalcon is the man to speak to.
CJ Will Win is the General of the US Army Corp. If you are in an Army unit, CJ Will Win is the man to speak to.
Roby Petric is the General of the US National Guard. If you are in a National Guard unit, Roby Petric is the man to speak to.
Soldier Pay
ThisGenMedia, our vice president, will be handling all soldier pay this time around. This will combat the problem of soldiers not getting paid, getting paid late, or for some of the other issues that popped up last time around. The pay scale will be the same as last time. This is important though! YOU MUST SEND AN EMAIL TO THISGENMEDIA ON EVERY SUNDAY TO RECEIVE PAY! No Email on Sunday, no pay for you! His Email address is ceo@thisgenmedia.com
If you have not received pay by Tuesday of that week please send ME a direct PM and I will rectify the situation as soon as humanly possible. I am here to make sure every single soldier of the US is treated fairly and treated well. I am here for you; all you need to do is send me a PM.
Military Recruitment
I have sent a ton of PMs over the last 2 days (actually the number is well over 100 PMs…well over) This has gotten a very good response so far, but we still need MORE soldiers willing to fight for our glorious country. If you are willing to join the military, I will most certainly have a spot for you. My administrative goal for this term is to double the size of our old military. Please help me make this possible. All you need to do is send me(Buzzythecat) a PM and you will be promptly placed in the appropriate branch of the military.
Military Employment
If you are in the military and need a job my company Springfield Armory will hire every single person over skill level 2.0 (we are a Q2 company so I can not hire anyone lower skilled than 2.0) Springfield Armory is a quality company dedicated to supplying the US with weapons when she needs them. We also offer a gifting program and very competitive wages. PM BMTF Holdings if you need a job. No soldier will be turned away if they are above skill level 2.0.
Thank you very much,
Your NSC Director,
BuzzyTheCat

Comments
Voting it up for leetness 😛
fyi it doesn\'t have to be sunday, it can be weekend
Don\'t PM Esoom, for the love of God.
\"Skill\" should technically be \"Strength\". Otherwise they wouldn\'t have to train ever again.
And because I\'m on the subject, I want to ask about high-Skill/Strength. I had thought each integer of Strength brought the increments down by half. .20, .10, .05, .025, .0125, .00625. However, I have heard in the distant past that this is not the case, and now, because I\'m making a little Skill Calculator, I need to know what the real increments are. Does anyone know off-hand?
I\'ve taken the liberty of adding my own stats to the google doc
0.00 -> 0.80: +0.4
0.80 -> 2.00: +0.2
2.00 -> 3.00: +0.1
3.00 -> 4.00: +0.05
4.00 -> 5.02: +0.03
5.02 -> Infinity: +0.01
Is that what you meant Inferno?
Yeah, but are you sure it\'s accurate?
And if it is, I fail to understand why the devs couldn\'t just make it a five digit number and hide the last two digits...
no benn\'s little graph is slightly inaccurate, i think the one you gave earlier is more accurate
And yet I know mine is wrong, because I tested it on the calculator. It said the maximum Strength I can have today is 6.54
... Dish knows, I think. He still Comments now, doesn\'t he?
^ Up ^
voted it up, I\'ll signup for the army, just need to message, been training everyday, should be to 2.00 before a war breaks out anyway, good system, we need a well-organized militay, nice job whoever or which ever people were involved in it the current system\'s making...
Remember to Join the military you need to message BuzzytheCat, not me.
Thanks
If anyone knows if they have made mention of ever expanding the military to specify MOS please let me know, (such as medic, logistics, etc.).
*voted* *sending BuzzyTheCat a pm* 🙂
during wars in the past they have designated players to be medics and such.
How war module looks like? I\'m just curious 🙂
I know from 4 -> 5 is .025 per.
^ Then how do people end up with 4.X9?
