Trade Routes

I believe they should add trade routes factors into the maps. This would give nations that control high travel routes, such as the Panama Canal, Suez Canal, the Strait of Gibraltar, the Silk Road and other trading hubs, an economic boost in their resources, due to their control of trade in the area. This would also include major trade cities, such as Singapore and New York. Although maybe will believe this could give an unfair advantage to certain countries, this would overall improve the realism of the game, and would make patrols of sea trade routes much more crucial to maintaining a nations economic power

I'm trying. I started as a tank spammer, and I like to secure land and sea before air.

So far. That is until your ally betrays you in your tutorial game and your air force is wiped out by TBs because you forgot to put the interceptors on patrol. Then you drag out the game by 20 extra days and live to get 55 gold.

Simply, kill everyone and don't make allies. As Stalin would say, no man, no problem.

As I said, tutorial game. Plus, Stalin allied with Hitler, then got invaded losing 15 million people, and almost had a heart attack when it happened.

Hardly. Pay attention, the line was "No man, no problem". He did a good job of eliminating a lot of people who caused problems. *cough* Kulaks *cough*

That's why Communism mostly fell. Ironically enough, the world's most hated form of government exists in the world's largest economy. Along with the world's biggest baby.

Actually, it fell because it could not afford the arms race, so it fell apart because it had no money.

That was Russia (or the U.S.S.R.). But most people are also oppressed under a Communistic government.

At least all are equal, whether you want to be or not.

This it's other thread!

"I came, I saw, I conquered" Written in a report to Rome 47 B.C., after conquering Pharnaces at Zela in Asia Minor in just five days; as quoted in Life of Caesar by Plutarch; reported to have been inscribed on one of the decorated wagons in the Pontic triumph, in Lives of the Twelve Caesars, Julius, by Suetonius.
"Alea iacta est" Gaius Julius Caesar.

@Kehsct don't listen to Ocean, he is a massive weeny.

@Quasi-duck and @oceanhawk

Calm in the thread.
