Well that was fun, wasn’t it?
It started as a random Resistance War by a UK citizen,
ishabad98 , it finished as an epic battle to the very last second.
The Run Down
The battle started pretty straight-forward and looked promising for the UK. The UK managed to take the lead 5-1, however a lot of damage was used up during the day and the UK started to flag. France came back into the fight around day change and brought the battle back to 5-5 during the night. Things were looking bleak and heads were dropping. We couldn’t see where we’d scrounge damage from during the early hours of the day (GMT
).
The next two rounds saw it taken to 6-6. France then took a 7-6 lead and during round 14 it all looked over.
reincarnate stepped up however and dealt 2.2M damage to win the penultimate round making it 7-7, and taking it right down to the final scrap.
Round 15
The gloves were off, this was an all-out brawl.
France took an incredible 5M lead during the round, heads were down and morale was low as the minutes ticked away. I tried to scrounge as much damage as possible from Bonkers and our allies, knowing full well what I was going to drop.
The wall sat at around 4M going into the last 5 minutes, it was going to be close.
Archduchess Diablo I contributed with a cheeky million, Rein showed up again with another 1M and I ended up hitting a total of 6.5M.
It was all in vain however, Lithuania had decided to show up to the fight. They hit a total of 7M damage, we fought well but ended up walking away covered in bruises with a loss. 700k damage was all that stood in our way of liberating London.
The Stats
In total, 58.9M damage was dropped for the UK. 40M of that came from UK citizens, a tremendous contribution. Bonkers contributed the greatest damage of the whole battle with 27M, in contrast WTC where second for the UK with 3.6M
Well fought!
Considering this was just a cheeky RW without planning, we showed that we can fight well as a nation. With a bit of proper co-ordination and a little bit of help, who knows what could happen.
Let’s use this as encouragement that we are improving. If every citizen helps drive us forward we have a chance of reclaiming at least some of the regions we once held.
Hail UK o/
Hail Bonkers o/
Keep up the good work!

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.
