lol mass war FTW - DONT COLLECT TAXES in nuclear anarchy
also you can buy a manhatten project wonder for 100 mill that will let you buy nukes outside the 5% you just need uranium then
If you have spies use them to spy away the enemy nukes
also a SDI wonder is a must as it will make some of there nukes miss meaning they will waste nukes trying to hit you (you will still get hit eventually though)
if there troops are kicking your *** and you have basicly no chance in winning theres then use the underdog bonus and deploy enough to give you between 5% and 7% chance of winning and agressive attack - you will lose but cause them the same damage as if you would of won
Ive just bought the fallout shelter
also note you can spy away 2 nukes per day so bear this in mind pete once you get them its important to max out spies to help prevent this
5th day in peace mode and im down to 3 million profit per collection after 5 days it goes down and down upto -9 happyness also been hit with another - 2 happyness event

i have bought the fallout shelter as i have heard a couple of stories about the sdi and how its not really worked for other people so i thought the bonuses that come with the fallout shelter out weight the sdi's
i already have quite a few spies but will max them out
2nd or 3rd day in peace and im still at 7.2 profit that was before i got a quality event 4% citizen increase just when i really need it extra 540k per day
i have jumped to 1638 and i have been growing due to my navy build up to 59,301 ns i only need to get to 61,043 and i am in the top 5% (that has been dropping around 1000 ns everyday since the war started) i should be there by tomorrow or latest wednesday

The aim of the SDI is for them to waste nukes meaning lessdamage overall 25 nukes can soon get used up fighting X wars and having your nukes spied away too
Ive been hit 4 times with nukes and its not fun - that nation didnt have that many either
a nuke basicly wipes off a donation at the minimum
my events
Option 1: Allow the immigrants to enter your nation and become part of your workforce. Citizen count +1%, Citizen income -$3.00. (even I guess)
Option 1: Take action and build dams and levees in the areas prone to flooding. Citizen income -$5.00.
Option 2: Devote military resources to counterfeit detection. Citizen income -$3.00.

cant remember how much my lights were, they are micromark (think they are 42mm) I got the set where you get the junction box that allows 10 lights to be connected and I think I got some lights with it. The blue lights I purchased seperately. I do have some white ones unused still at home that you can have if you get the same lights

ste these are the lights I have
Twilight 66 Individual IP66 Blue LED 42mm Add On - £9.99 - mm70025 - Micromark Twilight 66 LED Decking Lights - BuyaParcel.com - £3.95 Delivery On All Orders! (they are the blue ones, white are the same)
Micromark Twilight 66 LED Decking Lights at Buyaparcel.com - 3.95 Delivery on all orders
the junction box is near the top of the page, I have shielded cable running underground to my decking, then I have a weatherproof box (IP56 I think it is) that the cable goes into, and the junction box is inside there. Then all the wires to the individual lights come out of said box. Youy can buy additional junction boxes that take up a slot for one light, so 1 junction box is 10 led lights, 2 junction boxes is 19 led lights etc

im getting my nintendo dsi "backup" device sent out today but it is being delivered by a company I have never heard of before, Ex Trak, their website is a bit vague to say the least. Problem I have is they will attempt delivery at home (where no one is) and Im worried I may not be able to go collect the goods Because its a small item I was expecting it to be sent royal mail guaranteed next day, in which case I could pick it up from the post office in the morning

i cant remember how to put pics up, pm me your e-mail and ill send my pics over, just bought some spikes for the ground so i can drive them in then put some wood in and lift the frame ready for putting the decking on, want to get all the wiring done first though and also some lights in the pond.
anyone got any idea where i could get hold of some strong wire mesh to go over the pond?

I will check how many lights I have think its upto 4, definately 2 though. They are just sat round in their boxes so you can have em for nothing.
I originally got my lights from screwfix, but they dont seem to do the 42mm now only the smaller ones. Despite what the pictures from the links look like, they actually sit nicely in the decking.
I didnt bother with spikes for my base, I literally just concreted posts into the ground, and then attached the framework to it, and then placed the deckboards ontop. Seems secure enough, Ive had loads of people on it and there is no movement at all.
When you put your frame up, dont forget that you dont want it level otherwise standing water will be a problem (I know you probably know that but its surprising how many people level it off perfectly )
