Stats converted into RIOT II stats.

Yugoslavian upkeep is much higher than that. Overall, armies will need to be dismissed and territory ceded to create infrastructure in the remainder.

i don't have much to disband... can i keep one navy and put that in the Balearic sea? or woudl that still result in a negative bank?

You have plenty. Look at everybody else. Khitan's upkeep costs 10x more than it brings in domestically. Disbanding all its navies will reduce the number by $80 alone. Fleets at sea are as much as a drain as fleets in port....but I'm planning on changing that. A fleet in port would only cost $1 in maintenance a turn. A fleet at sea, $2.

Politics in Japan:

Death penalty abolished 67/33
UHC 79/20
outlaw Vindex faith, fails 46/54
gun control 84/16

President Hideyoshi elected to a second term, he gets to deal with the economic crisis, reports of election fraud have been filed.

well then Spain will disband all but 10 Armies and 2 navies. and put those two navies to the Balearic sea AND the coast of Iberia. do nto allow the hegemony through.

Kinda planning soon, aren't you guys? RIOT I is over....and the Hegemony isn't going to be in the transition.

then whats that massive yellow stuff in south America, and some in Africa? local warlords? better plan now than later.

 

[CELTICEMPIRE]

Japan's still in, right.

That's for me. Expanding in RIOT 2 won't work with XPs. It'll work through the use of money and armies. Armies cause econ damage when they invade and former NPC territories will be harder to expand into than neutrals.

 

[Mathalamus]

so basically the money replaces both XPs and LPs?

 

[Sonereal]

Yes and no. Bribing local leaders of a territory can be tricky and it very much will depend if the territory was bombed or not. A territory that was hit with nuclear and atomic weapons will require more in bribes because of different leaders. A territory not hit with those weapons would require more applied military force.

oh i absolutely suck at financial management. please tell me you can bank some money.

You can. Everybody on the list can decom armies and receive $1 each. Navies, $2 each. Territories, one free infrastructure point to invest.

Any money that isn't spend during a turn is banked.

As a matter of fact, with some loans from the USSR or Yugoslavia, even the Republic of the Canary Islands (Sorry. ) can become an economic powerhouse even with its small size. Given that each IP=+1% defense, things get interesting very quickly.

hmm. sounds simple. alright when will RIOT II start?

Either this Friday or the Friday after. Spring Break is coming up!

 

[Mathalamus]

so, RIOT is dead then?

 

[Sonereal]

so, RIOT is dead then?

Yep.

I'm using this thread to find who's transitioning, shrinking their armies, territory, navies, WMD stockpiles, etc.

 

[Mathalamus]

well then im going to assume all the nations that are left will want to reclaim the land that was theirs, and not deliberately claim somewhere to annoy someone else.

also, because of the great devastation suffered in the preemptive strike, i will have to be neutral and indifferent to the world at large.
