Ah yes, apologies- you can always calculate your own military results. Your 3.2 Might versus the NPC 3 Might means that you take 93% of their casualties, which are 100% of their Might. So you lose 2.8 Battalions, rounded to 2 due to complete kills. All you need to do is assign losses, which you decide as the primary attacker.

Thanks!

Note that Holy Lykos provided the bulk of the troops, so I think he might be pissed that he's taking the bulk of the casualties...

Well, it is formally your decision whether to give him both of the casualties or take one yourself.

Well, I only have one battalion committed to the Invasion, and he was going to take back said battalions once the Invasion was done, meaning that if I take one myself, Western Europe will have 0 Battalions.

This is true. Though, of course, it does leave no natural garrison, so you can always occupy it later.

Perhaps, but that might not be optimal. Far better to compensate losses with what one has than to have nothing at all.

Also, can we have two Minor Achievements per IC page instead of one Minor Achievement and one Major Achievement per two days that can be converted into a Minor? Because I am going to have to use next Page's Minor on (Edit: Modify Laws) and the next two Majors on Taxation, filling up my things to do...

I’m not sure I follow- you’re already allowed to swap Majors for Minors.

Though, you might want to note that you can only conduct Taxation every fourth month, tops. So back to back isn’t actually possible.

So, if I think a major is no use for now and the IC is slower than one page per two days, I can use my minor for major

No, it’s not backwards compatible

Majors can be Minors, but Minors can’t be Majors!

What I mean is, I promised Holy Lykos' nation half of the revenues from taxation until he's rebuilt his military forces. So I have to use my next Major Achievement for Taxation, and as my Minor is already pledged towards Modify Laws, that means that my next available actions are filled up and I can't do anything on my own.

>Though, you might want to note that you can only conduct Taxation every fourth month, tops. So back to back isn’t actually possible.

Then that means that although I technically have a Major Achievement free, my agreement to give half of my Taxation Capital to Lykos will have to last until one week IRL.

Technically true, I suppose. If you see that as being a problem, you might want to consider better terms for your agreement- not that I see anything wrong with RPing out the reconstruction and reparations that getting the armed forces of a corporation killed off will necessitate.

This might work. Same for that last part; it can increase the pace of the IC.

You wot m8? I have stuff there!

I will be fair to the corps that are there, just need to have taxation and to have more land.

Yeah? And what does taxation entail?

Its only for the taxation Major Advancement as I get +5 capital per capital. All corps in Cossack lands are hear to the policies unless otherwise.

G-Tech: Has Auphelia quit playing India? Their last post was for Happy Milk Company.

If they have quit India, then there would be no one to form an Internationale with me...

[Dragos Bee]

Ralnis: Sorry about the Secret Message, but you and Empire of Tau are too powerful now.

Edit: Your facilities are still safe, though; they are a source of free profit.

Anyway, if I give one of my custom Advancements, can I still keep it? I plan to give the collect satellite data to Clan Ishtangr, because the research satellite is pretty inefficient in the first stage, with high launch cost for three innovations per satellite

You can still keep it, because Tech Sharing isn't allowed, only Innovation Sharing, and only between Corporations; the Innovation that Powers use and the ones Corps use are different.

Good question- they’re probably just busy, but hard to say. Feel free to TG them to poke for activity, or I’ll do it when I get time.

[Saxony-Brandenburg]

Slowly working on that post Bois, should be today.

Also, are the inactives still allowed to chill out, or do you start to purge them?

Ah, Dragos already gave you a perfectly good answer- I didn’t chime in to correct him because he was right.

As for inactives, I dropped the most egregious examples several days ago.

So, is there any open power?

There is, in South America, if you know someone who might be interested in joining.

So, a modification I might be making to the combat system: Replenishment.

Currently, units with Might that aren’t completely killed in combat lose nothing. They are at full fighting strength the next time they are used. An idea I’ve had is to make them actually lose partial strength (so you can have a Battalion at 0.2 Might) and slowly recover to their full value, at an initial rate of 0.1 Might/Major. Might added from armor and weapons wouldn’t need to be recovered, so if a Battalion with Advanced Arms take 0.2 damage, it won’t need to recover.

This will buff weapons and armor significantly, while also making combat more costly. Thoughts?

To be honest, it might slow down the pace of the IC all the more, as people not only have to wait to invade other regions but also to replenish themselves after invasions.

Mm, yes. I was just considering the mechanics of weapons at present- they're pretty useless unless you mass them on large amounts of Battalions.
