We have Venezuala and Saudi Arabia, we have a a huge exporter of oil right now. What I would do for a suggestion is to ramp up the cost of oil as we have a near monopoly for sale to the international markets while we work on renewable green resources.
|
Considering how trigger-happy everyone seems to be, raising oil prices might be a very bad idea.
|
Alternatively, use the oil to raise our international standing; nothing makes friends like cheap oil; make them want to get it from us, and then they'll ignore our...indiscretions.
|
Yeah, it's time to rest, rebuild, and recover. Let us solidify our holdings, and rebuild our navy.

This is excellent!
Not just the land gains, but look at those staging areas! And all of them in oil-rich regions! God, had I known something like this was possible, I would have suggested it much sooner... Pity about our navy, but we can rebuild that when we're economically stable. I'd definetly advise that we let our holdings in South America and the middle east remian constant right now. Consolidate, fortify. Right now, we should focus all of our resources on continuing in South Africa. See if you can't do the whole covert shmick which we screwed mauritius over with again- Only this time do it for all of Africa's west coast. It's ok if it takes a while, we can use that time to reinforce our ground army. And why the hell is propaganda so high? Can't you cut that in half and put whatever's left into education? |

The world just went through some big changes, that's why everything is spoilered. There's lots and lots of screenshots.
Herein the US goes fucking nuts. At one point, during the initial invasion of India, the U.S. had 200,000 of its units against 1,500,000 units from 65 different countries...and somehow won...then just for good measure took their still #1 ranked navy and drifted over to South America, taking out most of their navies. Then they went back over to Indonesia and finished their navy. They even floated to the arctic circle north of Russia to take on Turkey and Tunisia's navies. Bad. Ass. On October 31st, 2018, the U.S. signed a cease fire with Serbia, eliminating 35 countries from the war. They were in the straight just south of Saudi Arabia for what seemed like years, as every fucking nation on the planet sent their navies in swarms, 300-style, being taken out one by one. On April 10th, 2019, Japan declared war on Venezuela and took over the coast that we had lost. On October 5th, 2019, they signed a cease fire. Other things of note: -Germany allied with Spain -Denmark allied with Hungary -Japan allied with Ukraine, meaning they are now allied with Russia by proxy -Greece allied with Germany -Latvia allied with Moldova -Colombia allied with Liberia -The USA, India, Luxembourg, Lichtenstein, Kuwait, Lebanon, Libya, Oman, Papau New Guinea, Phillippines, Singapore, Slovakia, Australia, Mexico, Albania, Belarus and about a dozen other random ass countries researched missile defense. -Slovakia declared war on the UAE -_- Can someone seriously educate these people that they can't go to war with nations they can't a) physically reach b) physically occupy or c) even compete with? The war is still "on" as much as India being a smoldering crater and the ocean being filled with scrap metal and blood can be described as "on". It just isn't officially over yet. And after all that, the US still has the #1 navy. I'll just let that all sink in. |
Well, it seems like the programmer of this game has some secret Neocon ties. Wouldn't be surprised to learn Dick Cheney had a hand in Superpower 2's creation process.
Still, it seems like your empire's crumbling a bit at the scenes -- it looks increasingly spread out and piecemeal. I wish instead of spreading out on so many regions, we could concentrate on solidifying power in just one region and ensure we kept opposing forces out. As is, it just seems like trying to hold all your possessions has resulted to all of them being equally vulnerable. To me, Venezula's close proximity to the United States (a close ally at this juncture that you do not, Neocon jokes aside, want to fuck around with right now) makes South America the least attractive region. Not that it seems like this game follows actual real-world political strategies, but allowing historical realism to seep through, we shouldn't portray ourselves as a threat to the U.S' beloved Monroe Doctrine. Besides, I imagine South America is the most distant territory to latch onto. I prefer a North Africa strategy. Our meddling in North African regions seems to offend other countries the least, it's furthest from United States possessions, it's closest to the Netherlands, African countries can be gradually picked off with minimal casualties, and we can develop what we conquer. (Note: I've never actually played Superpower 2, so forgive me if all my assumptions are completely and utterly wrong.) In the end it's not my choice, but that's my two cents on the matter. If we slowly but surely built up Northern Africa to be an impenetrable fortress, we'd have an ideal staging ground for a double-pronged invasion of Mediterranean Europe, and the United States would be too busy worrying about enforcing its territory in Iraq and India to give a damn. Can we trade territories for favors / increased relations / alliances? If so I'd consider outright "giving" the United States Venezuelan and/or maybe even Saudi Arabian territories in exchange for tons of financial and diplomatic support. At this point being the U.S.' lapdog may not be such a bad thing -- the apprentice can eventually betray the master, but for now, playing Darth Vader to the United States' Emperor would at least make for an exciting experience (and who the hell is going to fuck with the Netherlands if the threat of war against the U.S. runs implicit?) |
Wow.
I mean jesus christ what the fuck? |
Um...World War 3 anyone?
