Go for a calm drive down the nearest busy highway so you can get yourself to relax a bit.

Oh. That might be it. I assume conscription is the main way to gain troops yeah? What's the rate of growth loss to troop gain?
Each time you conscript, you get 2K troops for 1 point of growth, and your overall training level decreases. You always want your training level to be at least at standard, and it's highly recommendable it's kept at elite as much as possible as it's one of the determining factors in how many casualties are taken in battle.

My GDP is $124.
Do you have 15K troops or more?

EDIT: Also, Taricus. I never delegated you as a representative as the U.B.A. I asked you to go to that one IRC meeting to see what was going on, and that's it. It was cool of you to apologize to SAP, but you're not really a representative.

There's really no harm in joining with half of the alliances in a war that will end as soon as a couple alliances are peaced with. Imo.
Yeah, but what I'm asking is do we really want to affiliate with the big alliances at this point? Originally, I was very much for joining in on the W.U.T. treaty, but at this point I'd personally find it better to remain independent and just pick off the alliances we want.

I don't really want to aid any side at this point, because they're both kind of shitty. But if you guys really want to help one side or another, I'll go along with it.

My preferred path right now would be gearing up to fight a small alliance as an initiation into alliance warfare (The African Legion for example.) But to fight them, we'd need around the same amount of high GDP nations they have, so they can't just have all of their non-occupied 1000 GDP nations just produce a bunch of troops/cash/oil to send off to other nations we're fighting.

Again, I don't want anyone declaring war against Yotsuba. The ACE idea was (again) really stupid, and frankly a dick suggestion on my part. I was unaware that ACE had any real leadership, and I assumed it'd fall apart very quickly due to the initial controversy. The thing with the Yostuba war is that it seems the delegated leadership of Yotsuba is actually attempting to reach a peace with the people all of their loosely affiliated nations pissed off, but the members of the big alliances either aren't taking them seriously or not putting much effort forward to do anything.

We should probably just watch it play out for a bit more and see which side (If any), we might want to support. Who knows, the war might even end in a few days.

The leader of the Comintern sent me a message asking to join the war against Yotsuba, which I promptly denied. It just seems hypocritical that all of these W.U.T. signatory nations are declaring war against them, without any real attempts at peace talks. Their primary cause for declaring war now is apparently because many of the nations have racist names, but frankly that's something Rumsrod should be dealing with. I mean, when a war comes by where we have an actual reason to join, I'd be more than happy to let everyone in on the action. But this to me proves that the Goons and Facepunch crowd aren't particularly interested in world peace if it doesn't suit their own needs.

Maybe I shouldn't be so surprised, because they also declared TF2 the greatest shooter of all time.

Skyrim apparently was declared the #1 Game of All Time by PC Gamer, I don't even.

There's no point, most discussions of the good/bad of a video game is done in the topic that is made for the game in question, no need to create a subforum that would be rarely used.

So, if one of our consituent nations were to launch an attack on one within Yotsuba, it would be tolerated so long as we kept it under wraps?
I'd rather you not, the whole ACE idea was sort of stupid of me to suggest in the first place. Who knows, there might even be an extremely slim we'd help them out if things go south in terms of the W.U.T. treaty.

So, what is our glorious leader's opinion on this second world war against Yotsuba? And ae we allowed to take initiative on our own stances in this or what?
A neutral stance. My personal opinion is that everyone is jumping to beat the shit out of Yotsuba primarily because they're the obvious reincarnation of JIDF, and using the excuse that a few of their members declared war on random alliances. They don't seem to understand that since the leadership is very loose and appointed on a rather random basis, it's hard for them to really organized themselves and deal with nations who fuck around.

So does the UBA have any oil production?

And how come we dont produce gold or something? Or any radioactives?
There are a few people producing small amounts for themselves, nothing major yet though. There aren't any other resources besides oil yet, so no to your second question.

Yet?
Yet as in the developer plans on potentially adding in more resources, but it'll be awhile before it's added in.

I really doubt he'll just decide to attack you. Since he has a high GDP, it'll be a mild inconvenience at most.

So uh, accidentally hit war on the wrong tab. Cue me warring with someone 150% my GDP and having a massive growth, but small army. I'm about to get fucked I think. Oh also they are in Mainsail Initiative. They are also one o' them western types, so I don't feel too bad, but I'm probably going to get screwed. At least I can go east and beg for stuff.
Send a message to him explaining the situation, and if you damaged any of his growth/army then pay reparations. If not just request a white peace.
I already smacked them pretty bad before I realized that it was the wrong nation. Did airstrikes and invaded, then realized afterwards. Since they only have like 3 nations in Africa, and the one I attacked is the highest GDP, I think I'll probably just stick it out for better or worse.

edit: I mean best case scenerio I get away and end this with like 1200 GDP.

edit2: Unless you are ordering me Bdthemag, in which case I shall comply swiftly. Though I will probably need help paying him $$$, but I can refund him the 15k or so troops he lost.
Well, wait for a reply from him after you explain the situation, and ask him if he wants any reparations.
