Catholic Zone of Civilization and Prosperity | Tuesday, February 10, 2004 - 10:58 pm  Rome, Is this your first country? It looks like it, as you're making one of the huge newbie mistakes: buying too much military too early. If you want to succeed in this game: 1. Build up the economy first. Without it, you can pay for nothing. 2. Buy defense arms. To protect yourself from attack. 3. Only then can you buy offensive arms. 4. Don't build a Navy until you have large Budget surpluses and cash reserves. It is very expensive. 5. Look at opening up a CEO account as well (you can be both a President and a CEO) to contract you the weapons. That way you are only buying small quantities each month, lessening the economic and manpower impacts. |
