My name is
Shylock . I am your current Secretary of the Treasury and I'd like to announce an opportunity for you to help the United States and receive some interesting compensation. As you may know, the recent troubles with Mexico, Canada, and China have passed several key regions back and forth between hands and as such destroyed several defence systems in the process. We are running short on Defense Systems and as such, I would like to implore our military leaders to provide one (1) soldier a day to help with Defense System requirements.
To be quite honest, I think every citizen who participates in the Hell on Wheels program ought to work at DefCon Q3 .
The average participant in HoW utilizes:
100 Q1 Weapons @ .021g = 2.1 Gold
15 Q5 Gifts @ .125g = 1.875 Gold
Total: 3.975 Gold
Don't you think you could spare a day or two of labor for 3.975g in supplies? I would think so! While you can receive these supplies without working in the Defense System companies, you endanger the United States in a manner -- without these Defense Systems, it will be harder to repel invaders.
So, what do you get if you participate?
- Hell on Wheels supplies (to cover your MU supplies that you will be missing out)
- A Comic About Your Persona (7 Days of Labour)
Yes, I will draw a comic all about your persona. While I make make it unflattering, it will be published as soon as you do seven days of labour. I will also pick a random song to represent you to the world. Your comic will be posted in the weekly briefing and featured on the forums.
- A Patent of Nobility (14 Days of Labour)
Sir Strangelove, Surgeon General of the Realm
Ever fantasize about becoming the Earl of the East Coast or the Baron of the Badlands? Well, look no further. With fourteen days of labour, I will come up with a creative title and even draw up a family tree using other famous players. While you might not be related to any of our various royalty, you may find that you inherit a few gold from a long lost uncle (cash reward for your dedication).
- A Religion of Your Own (21 Days of Labour)
Down with the God King! Yep. I will come up with an interesting ascension to godhood for you. Your powers and a devout priesthood will help you make a few more gold too!
--- If you aren't a big fan of any of the prizes, we can work something out! But remember the best part of all of this is that we will be able to defend ourselves from other aggressive nations.
That is all,
Shylock

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.
