I tried posting this on White Giant Forum but never got a response. I have three countries on white giant, a little over a week ago all of them had their military costs sky rocket, multiple billion SC$ increase. I have not purchased any weapons and military staff did not change. Also no wars were started. Only thing that changed was I started using the mobile app.

Has this happened to any one else? Does anyone now if theirs a fix?

This wasn't caused by any recent changes to the game.
I'd suggest to have a look at the markets and see if any resources the military uses have large shortages.

If that's not the case let us know and we'll investigate the issue.

There are some shortages on a couple items but nothing too strange. Two of my nations have very small military's and they shot up multiple billions in defense costs. My nation with the smallest military had the defense cost about double. Just went up another 10% in past game year.

You haven't posted your country to allow anyone else to take a look. I can answer your question that I have not seen anything unusual with military costs, and I maintain the largest active military in the game.

Here is the most important question.

Why do you have an active military on White Giant?

Its small, one nation if pretty much just Fortifications. The nations are Kingdom of Hodg, Second Kingdom of Hodg, and Third Kingdom of Hodg. I know I'm very creative with names. The second and third kingdom have the military I got with the nations and defense fortifications.

You have an enterprise and a bunch of weapons sitting around, particularly in your secured main. Send weapons that you currently don't have a use for to your enterprise using direct trade or shuttles. In the enterprise, they will have no upkeep.

As far as military costs, since you are mostly forts, your costs will mostly revolve around the expense of acquiring the military bases maintenance product. Your finance page will reflect consumption of the product at the current market price though your actual cost will be what you pay when you acquire the product. So, if you can find it on sale..

I dismantled all units and moved all weapons to Space Center. However, the number of troops still in the army. What is wrong here?
