The sUSA's only ELITE Military Unit, Band of Brothers , is ready to add our first member via public notice. As a member of Band of Brothers, you will receive a 20% damage bonus when fighting in our chosen battle orders. You will also receive plentiful rations of food and weapons.
Up until now we have conducted recruitment in private, because our funding has been tied up in upgrading the MU and purchasing companies and company upgrades. Now our focus is on expansion.
It costs 50G to expand a slot in an ELITE military unit. Anyone with 50G is welcome to send a message to either me or Leroy Combs about joining the MU immediately. 50G does not guarantee you entry, as each applicant must demonstrate the qualities that we look for in Brothers, but it will expedite your entry into the MU.
Because it costs 50G and because most people do not have this much gold, BoB will hold open recruiting, like this, from time to time once we have enough gold to cover half of the entry fee. This sets the minimum entry fee paid by an interested citizen at 25G. If you have 25G and are interested in applying, please continue reading.
We currently are only looking to fill one new slot.
Band of Brothers Requirements
- All Brothers must commune. We have communes in the sUSA and sRussia.
- All Brothers must treat each other with loyalty and respect.
- There are no strength requirements, though strength may be taken into consideration when many applicants are applying for one slot.
- If a Brother is inactive and unresponsive for 2 weeks, without giving prior notice to MU leaders, they may be removed from the MU.
Rations
- Our communes operate at minimum wage. In return, we supply more than what one could purchase using market wages.
- All BoB members receive 10 Q4 food and 30 Q1 weapons each day, presently.
- The weapons rations figure has not been finalized, and it may be adjusted either higher or lower based on strength/rank and importance of daily battles, but our intent is to shoot for 30 per day minimum no matter what.
- We can supply moving tickets for soldiers moving around for commune purposes or for tanks deploying to important battles.
Application Process
If you are interested in joining or would like some more information, please contact either me or
Leroy Combs . Below is the required information if seeking to join.
- List your strength, total damage, and level
- If foreign, list your citizenship country
- How much are you willing to pay? The minimum entry fee is 25G, but applicants willing to pay more will be more likely to be considered for entry (A high fee value does not guarantee you will be selected. We look at a broad variety of factors in choosing a new member, but a higher entry fee certainly will help.)
- Are you fine with communing?
- Are you open to future giving (of gold)? BoB promotes a culture of internal giving, as it is the only reason that we have been able to grow so fast and it is how we will continue to grow strong. We have no giving requirements once accepted. It is up to each Brother to decide if he is willing to give and how much to donate.
- Do you have any companies that you would be willing to give to BoB?
- And feel free to list any other information you think we should know.
Thank you for your time,
Abroham Lincoln
Co-Founder, Band of Brothers

About the game:
USA as a world power? In E-Sim it is possible!
In E-Sim we have a huge, living world, which is a mirror copy of the Earth. Well, maybe not completely mirrored, because the balance of power in this virtual world looks a bit different than in real life. In E-Sim, USA does not have to be a world superpower, It can be efficiently managed as a much smaller country that has entrepreneurial citizens that support it's foundation. Everything depends on the players themselves and how they decide to shape the political map of the game.
Work for the good of your country and see it rise to an empire.
Activities in this game are divided into several modules. First is the economy as a citizen in a country of your choice you must work to earn money, which you will get to spend for example, on food or purchase of weapons which are critical for your progress as a fighter. You will work in either private companies which are owned by players or government companies which are owned by the state. After progressing in the game you will finally get the opportunity to set up your own business and hire other players. If it prospers, we can even change it into a joint-stock company and enter the stock market and get even more money in this way.
In E-Sim, international wars are nothing out of the ordinary.
Become an influential politician.
The second module is a politics. Just like in real life politics in E-Sim are an extremely powerful tool that can be used for your own purposes. From time to time there are elections in the game in which you will not only vote, but also have the ability to run for the head of the party you're in. You can also apply for congress, where once elected you will be given the right to vote on laws proposed by your fellow congress members or your president and propose laws yourself. Voting on laws is important for your country as it can shape the lives of those around you. You can also try to become the head of a given party, and even take part in presidential elections and decide on the shape of the foreign policy of a given state (for example, who to declare war on). Career in politics is obviously not easy and in order to succeed in it, you have to have a good plan and compete for the votes of voters.
You can go bankrupt or become a rich man while playing the stock market.
The international war.
The last and probably the most important module is military. In E-Sim, countries are constantly fighting each other for control over territories which in return grant them access to more valuable raw materials. For this purpose, they form alliances, they fight international wars, but they also have to deal with, for example, uprisings in conquered countries or civil wars, which may explode on their territory. You can also take part in these clashes, although you are also given the opportunity to lead a life as a pacifist who focuses on other activities in the game (for example, running a successful newspaper or selling products).
At the auction you can sell or buy your dream inventory.
E-Sim is a unique browser game. It's creators ensured realistic representation of the mechanisms present in the real world and gave all power to the players who shape the image of the virtual Earth according to their own. So come and join them and help your country achieve its full potential.
Invest, produce and sell - be an entrepreneur in E-Sim.
Take part in numerous events for the E-Sim community.
