Soooo...

I was looking at this country, and I noticed it has -8Trillion in Army assets.

Question number 1. How is this possible?

Question number 2. What does this mean?

I've seen negative country assets, but negative Army Assets? Is a first for me.

How does a country go into -200T assets and yet still not bankrupt?

You got me there with that one too CC.

Has anyone noticed that you cannot transfer goods between countries? At first it was telling me I couldn't because my country has too much debt. Solved that now the function is gone altogether.

I have an idea based on the countries I left unattended for some years.

I have (had) negative ammo stock in some countries. If you have weapons, those consume ammunation in training. If your country fails to buy the ammo to replenish the stock - orders may linger -, you can get negative army stock, because they just keep on consuming.

You can go negitive in a number of ways.

If you war and you have no assests and a large demand of construction after war

As for military the only way "I know of of" Is you tell your nation not to buy ammo. Then you have a large stock of weapons they still use the ammo but it drives the stock to a negitive number

I had similar issues with that, I have adjusted units to balance out the negative stock. It is a more cost effective way to do it, then to try to replace bombs and such without taking into consideration the cost of the weapons.
20 mil for a precision bomb vs 4-5mil for a drone missile in an air unit. for example. it helps at least some in case of imbalance. in a very bad case it could mean the difference from borrowing vs controlling it with your own assets and money.

if you put up units, with less than the default ammo, you will get negative ammo, and negative military assets.

i saw that country with -200T. and it didn't happen until he put up his wings.

lol Josias. I can show you about 40 of them, all belonging to one player, and it has nothing to do with wings.

agreed crafty... drones are the cheapest to satisfy unit count and ammo is cheaper. bomber, helicopters, and jets are most expensive to maintain. needed in war but expensive. drones use less men too.
Crafty that is yet another subject... lol
I'm not gonna go there, i am glad you did tho.
Hopeful for peace and a return to fairness soon.
