[UPDATE] Important Military Changes Implemented
•
by Shawtyl0w
Dear Citizens,
We're starting to roll out new (and old) features that have been quite requested by the community.
Multiple Aircraft Rounds
Starting Day 4,328 and until the end of Day 4,339 Aircraft Rounds will get an extra strategy layer and allow previously anonymous pilots to distinguish themselves in acts of valor.
(note that the changes are temporary for now)
The Aircraft Rounds beginning after day-change will be divided into 4 distinct Sectors, similar to what the Divisions are for Ground Battles. Every citizen can fight in one or more Sectors of an Aircraft Round.
You can choose at any time the Sector you are fighting in using the Sector Switcher, the same way you can Switch Divisions in Ground Battles. In other word you do not need a maverik pack to switch between air sectors like you need it to switch between divisions in ground battles.
Campaign Points and Sky Hero Medal Updates:
Each Sector will award 5 Campaign Points to the Winning Side. Since there are 4 sectors the air round will offer a total of 20 points (2 points less than normal). The citizens who deal the most damage in Sector Battles (for each of the involved sides) will earn the Sky Hero Medal and 8 x Gold as the Reward. The total gold that can be collect for each country is now equal to 32 gold(2 gold more than before).
Plato also introduced Sky Hero packs! Find them here. Once you buy the Aviator pack S other the Aviator pack M will also become available etc. Until pack XL.
Time to put those Stingers to good use.
Stay tuned for the new things we'll be releasing next week and, as always, we're keen to hear your feedback on Discord or on the eRepublik Forum.
(I'm still editing this article!)

Aviator pack 😃 😃 😃 😃 😃 . This means 24/7 all year round madness in air as well. To all of those that said to new players do air rounds, you can now forget about it 😃 . Platos economy is crashing down.
I hope they are only temporary since the stinguers you buy with €€ have a limited time
thanks!
The same pack buyers will farm in air, no matter how they divide the SH reward. Actually it's a nonsense that wars in a war game are used to farm gold.
This does add strategy to air warfare which is nice.
Also I see SHs going for 30k+ now (since everyone with a few EBs and full FF can reach that) normal was let's say 90k to make it easy for a SH medal. Meaning SH hunters will need to do 133% of damage they would normally do. AND the risk of defending their SHs against other players has increased dramatically. In other words. They will farm yes but there will be room for more people to farm AND farming will be less profitable resulting in less people farming thus giving other players a chance to win gold and medals.
Well, for those who are interested in medals. In real wars air players continue to make no difference. They even decreased the importance of air round in wars. There are a few hundred accounts in that can decide the outcome of any war, as long as it is like this, the game is dead.
The really good news is that they will ban multies. The questions are:
There are a lot of traded accounts which is a case of use of multies, will these accounts get banned?
There are a lot of shared IK accounts used for pre hit, which is also use of multies, will these accounts get banned?
There are a lot of packed bot armies, even obvious cases that are let run with the excuse they do not share the same IP address, will these accounts get banned?
