Why attack a NATO country btw? We are talking about a group that could kick our asses and turn the Netherlands into the Never Existed Lands?

I support more covert attacks on Maurtiana and Finland. Maybe attack ourselves and blame Finland on it.

I suggest not a direct attack yet. But I also suggest we get in the good with Egypt as others have said.

Plus what is the status of turning our universities into compulsory Military Schools?

When I said attack NATO, I meant terrorism framing Mauritania so NATO would then have a reason to hate them too.

Update probably coming at midnight.

I support an Invasion of Africa assuming this will eventually (in the next 2-4 years) will end up being economically beneficial.

If we stay in occupation of the area only, we can steal their resources, but let them keep their population and debt. Annexation may come later, depending on if we can support the land by that time. Or we can just oppress them.

After the terrorism in Africa, I plan on doing it to a couple NATO nations, then finally attacking ourselves to finish it off as we swoop in to "defend our freedom" and play hero. The attack on us has to be significant though, I'll probably end up assigning all of our cells to the task and setting the difficulty of the attack to high.

Cool. What's our funding for covert ops? Whatever it is, if we're going for the energy monopoly, it should be higher. And universities--> military schools= Big no-no. We have a pretty good advantage in quality of education, let's not squander that.

Do we have enough troops to "defend our freedom"? And, for that matter, enough ships?
What's the status of our military, in terms of strength?

Also, could you check which countries are major oil-producers?

Asked that.

Though I am curious about our navy and air forces.

Funding for everything is basically set as far as we can afford to go right now. Any further spending will just force us deeper into the money pit. Besides, I just splurged a bit on them. We now have three elite (lvl 3) cells, two level 2s, and one level 1. If you really want me to go all out I can, I mean it's not like we're going to go bankrupt. I just hate to see that red number get much higher.

10306 soldiers, 96th ranked
2391 armored units, 39th ranked
123 air force units, 52nd ranked
43 naval units, 24th ranked

We would wipe the floor with Mauritania. It wouldn't even be an issue. The issue would be if more than just the west coast joined in the war. But, we really have no choice as expanding the military any more right now would increase our debt even more. I say we take Mauritania. Build up our army there, then move on to the next target.

Nigeria, Angola, and Algeria are the largest producers in the region we're attacking. The ones next door to Mauritania have a modest amount. The largest producers in the world, though, are a bunch of as-of-yet unbeatable countries.

I'm sending the ops out now.

[Edit] Also, I'm a complete idiot. Our unemployment rate is 3.4%. That figure I posted earlier was our "below the poverty line stat".

What's the picture for Nigeria?


QUESTION: How does this game treat resources? Are there listings for everything or just generic "oil, minerals, etc."?

The most important question is: do we have missiles?
