Would chronic commandment-breakers who are vets be subject to retroactive renoobification? Thus, in effect, sending them back to square one?

Ying and yang.

Good and bad.

Vicious and docile.

Its the combination of both philosophies that make an interesting game environment.

Over the years the most memorable points in the game have been when these two positions climaxed in epic struggle.

Ive grown to appreciate both sides really.

Real life Wendy...it's a problem for those of us that have one. Luckily I discovered today that sneak attacks work just fine from my iPhone ;) Yay!

regarding rule #1, what if ALL the corporations in a country were not producing anything due to a shortage of materials?...and this had been going on for about a week?...and i already had a substantial stock investment in this country BEFORE this occurred?... is this a hostile takeover or protecting an investment already made?...would this make me a pariah? (and not a member of the lower caste in southern India)...comments please, ty...

first, you can only take over corps in a country with your ceo, not a country in your empire. if you're asking if you can take over cheaper corps with your ceo you should ask the president of the country. the way the game is now it's more of an advantage for a pres to have all ceo's anyway. you will still have to pay a penalty of at least 50b to take it over. leaving the corp in the country is usually advantageous to the country since you have to pay a fee to use resources of the country. if you decide to move the corp, that might be considered a hostile move but if the corp is doing poorly you might be doing the pres a favor by moving it. also, you'll have to pay a penalty to move it. it's important to be working with a good pres for the benefit of you both, so if you want to buy a corp, just message him/her to see if they are okay with it.

Some CEOs buy enough stray shares sold by investment funds to get control of corps of active players. Some of us regard that as another form of hostile takeover.

Those of us who buy control of public corps of inactive players don't always succeed at getting 50%+ of the shares. We can't monitor investment fund sales 24 hours per day.

If CEO A takes uninvited control of a public corp of active Player B by buying shares, Player B might tell him to stop the takeovers. If CEO A continues those takeovers, he's being hostile.

Hustling away someone's public corps in which he invested time and effort deprives him of that investment. Unless invited, it's wise to leave the public corps of active players alone.

Communication is the key. If a failing CEO/Pres refuses to co-operate after you have asked them to, then any action you take could hardly be considered 'hostile'.
