CW farming
After last CW in Australia I have feeling that lot of players didn't get idea what CW gold farming is all about so I decided to write article to explain it.
What is CW farm?
First of all CW gold farming is way to make gold out of thin air. Idea behind this is that cost of starting CW is 55 gold if you extend CW to maximum 15 rounds players can get 30 BH medals (2 each round) which equals 150 gold so in ideal case profit is 95 gold. Since individual players can't start CW for this purpose (because lack of organization players would just waste more gold on supplies than actual profit) government takes on itself job organizing this.
We had split 4 gold to org 1 gold to player in last CW. That one gold is given to player to cover costs of supplies needed to win BH. BH should be won with 2 berserks (100 health) and 10Q1 guns so with about 40K of damage in ideal case or around 100K damage, anything over that is waste and I will explain why later. If we assume that all players donated 4 gold to org that's 120 gold minus 55 gold for starting CW that's 65 gold profit for the org. Since I run finances for org when we had all of our provinces we had monthly taxes ~100 gold so income from CW farming is really good.
Now to get back to unprofitability, when you take BH with over 100K damage you will spend more supplies for BH valued more than one gold. You lose money that way and that's bad because next time we have actual war you may not have enough supplies to full fight or buy buffs. Last time we had couple of rounds where players used high quality weapons and make ~500K damage to get BH which is huge waste of resources. Even players who didn't donate gold to org made losses because supplies have very high price right now.
For what is used gold from org?
If you keep track about our war with Indonesia you will see that we resisted them successfully for over 2 months which borders miracle since they have over 8 times more players than us.This is no small feat and I don't think any country can say they did better than us. This was achieved by dedication of our citizens, lot of help from our allies and mercenaries. While we can always count on dedication of our citizens our allies can't babysit us all the time because they have problems of their own so employment of mercenaries is necessary and this requires gold.
We had 3-4 months of peace before this war with Indonesia so we accumulated lot of gold and we were able to put lot of Q3 defense systems in most important provinces and buy mercenaries when needed most. Because of prolonged war and closing other Indonesian front against Iran our citizens just didn't have enough supplies to fight and org didn't have enough money to pay for mercenaries.
Effects of CW on citizens
If CW farm is successful that means org will receive gold out of thin air which will lead for new options for our citizens. This means that org can give refund/supplies/gold for buffs to citizens when we have war. I think everyone agree that it would be nice to have full or partial government supplies for free.
System for getting BH gold in CW
It’s based on prepaid system, you donate 4 gold to org to buy your BH medal in CW, also you should arrange with person in charge in what round and on what side you hit . There should be spreadsheet online that every player can see, but only government can edit . This spreadsheet is where you can see what rounds are available to buy and who hit what round (we had this list last time but it wasn’t made public which caused lot of troubles and damage waste).
Priority for BH should be given to players who want some achievement or don’t have BH medals but I don’t expect any trouble with this because our players are spread out over different time zones. Government should provide players to watch rounds and prevent players who didn’t buy BH from getting it (we also didn’t have cover for all rounds in last CW since it had unexpected start and players who should watch CW had debuffs at time).
If someone takes your prepaid BH you can be moved to another round or org can give you gold back. Rounds in CW should be in balance during whole war with no more that +1 lead for any side and CW should end up with loyalists winning so we respect our citizens elections regarding CP and congress members.
That’s about it regarding CW farming if I forgot something write in comments and I’ll edit article.

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.
