Thanks coreleone

Unless you are 13,000 miles from anything (not possible with this map) being on an island isn't going to even slow anyone down. Even if it was possible, that's what a Navy is good for.

take a country with navy lol. For me navy has performed the worst. The cruise missiles hit buildings not the units. They always get creamed by land units

Just cuz you too stupid to use the navy, doesn’t mean we are.

@mrp8196 I purposely set taxes to 0 in order to ipo those corporations and sell off their shares. I was liquidating my assets into game cash because I was planning on deleting my account and creating a new one, and also wanted to help Hydra federation by gifting Corleone along with others my military assets.

You purchased those shares at peak pricing and lost out massively on value and profits once tax was inevitably going to be set back up to 75%. If you paid attention to those countries before you would've known that they used to be at 75% tax. Those countries you keep ragging on about being run poorly I assure you, Corleone doesn't care. It is not his priority to keep them in good economic shape, he has enough to worry about in other areas. Those countries were taken primarily for the transfer of assets. Since no one owns the majority of corporations in those countries, there's no point in keeping those countries well managed. I ho

I for one actually like these threads. You can learn a lot if you don't get caught up in emotions.

I bailed as soon as it hit 75. All I Knew was gamemaster got a ton of companies

why would you want to throw away and start over

I just leave it at 30% and depending how the auto transfer and loans are going mess with the profit payment a little. Make it so I don't worry about loans or transfers. fo Ceo I am transferring out

Ooooh Drama! Love this!

according to google 75% tax means you want direct revenue and makes it so Ceos get little. However it makes the value cheap and creates a cheap company to buy and move

Due to the premiums, for bidding on a player owned corporation, you'll almost always still be overpaying, but you seem to grasp the basics.

no penalty if you buy public and there is 2300 gamemaster corps available. Some are locked up. You receive a huge penalty if you close in players country for private cos. No penalty for public

You were talking about 75% countries which are player corps. Yes the stock value lowers allowing you to buy and move corps that are already public but, if they leave their shares open like that then they aren't thinking, yes you can gain control and move them.

I've raped more than one economy like that.

I've learned my lesson @Yankee back in the day. In my opinion never allow a majority of shares of corporations you plan to keep on the open market. Someone will buy them eventually, usually a hostile player who is looking to do economic harm. Never sell a majority of shares in a mining corp especially.

If you want 250/250 upgraded public corps, speaking to anyone, I suggest owning 20% of shares in your country. Then splitting the other 80% between two other countries in your empire in their investment funds. This way you still own 100% ownership without the risk of a hostile takeover. Common knowledge on the forum, but wanted to bring it back up to any newer players who may make that mistake many have before.

However you split them, my goal is to own 100% of all shares in my public corps through various means.

On weapon corps I do like a 20% cut through 5 different entities. The reason for that is you can lose a country and only lose temporary control If that happens to be where it's based. With me and weapon corps producing Q336 it's more about where the weapons are going than profit.

I do 24.95 on Ceo and country. When you sell em off you get locked up gamemaster companies with 0 trading. Also I buy with investment fund when I need companies.
