But Crafty, don't you know that every player who don't have a nuke want a nuke because they believe just that. Me, I prefer a more conventional war over the nuclear one.

@crafty,
sure an h bomb could or could not made to destroy a whole country in sc, depending on the gm/owner/programmer. just like sending 200 fighter jets to bomb a city, yet no causlties shown--not realistic?

i suppose my point is that if the strategic bomb is made to be the most powerful weapon in sc, then it should be designated that one of them will wipeout a country in sc. but again, there needs to be other variables to consider if a player is to nuke a country, such as that country will not be able to rebuild or use for at least "x" number of game years and everything be declared total destruction.

and make the strategic bomb so expensive, not thec current 14B now, but say in the 10T or more, so that only very experienced and economically strong countries could acquire them. also say your game level must be in the double digits in order to manufacture them too.

it's the most powerful weapon, yet just about

Well, we could get into a long discussion here. A while back it was like you would have but then a new up and coming player called SuperSoldierRCP came along and reckoned he could make nuclear weapons by the score and make a profit out of them by selling them to any old n00b that asked.
Previously, owners, manufacturers, of nukes (which are extremely difficult to make economically), who were generally vets, would NOT sell to n00bs. The weapons were used carefully by people with good judgement (except Wendy, lol).

I told SS several times, as did others, and he agreed to stop selling to n00bs, but by then it was too late.

Have you ever seen the church of SC 10 commandments xiong? No? Then do a search for them. They are not rules but a very good (moral?) code to play by.

@crafty,
yep, read most of what scarlet has posted. the church does have some great things, especially their three areas of focus (econ, military, politics) and i was looking for more details of these but couldn't find them.

as i've mentioned, make the most powerful weapon so expensive that only those who know the difficulty of getting it will appreciate it. say if the requirements include that your country/empire must be at least 100T at the time you want to buy one and you must be at least game level 10, these would eliminate most of the noobs. and also make it that your cashflow must be in the 1Q (1000T) in order to manufacture them, then that would eliminate many more as well.

i'm a noobs and after couple earth months now, i'm still in the negative cashflow. at rate that i'm going, i might now hit those requirements in 12 earth months to buy or produce strategic bombs and strategic bombers.

I see what you're saying and agree in some ways. Maybe your requirements are a bit high, but...yeah.

Luckily nukes are not great shakes in most peoples hands, an experienced war player can use them to much greater effect.

@crafty,
if there are more effective ways to launch military gadgets in sc, i definitely like to know that.

so far i know that just pick your target, your qty of weapons per the selected unit, then click click click...

is there a aim/bino available that i'm not using?

There's more to war than that. Fight smarter it is said. Like for example, weapons deactivate if there are not enough MLM in a country to keep the officers there, so its easier to win...

Just one of many little complications that you will need to know.

The best guide/text book is experience.

You for real, what is MLM? 3 month you have been on forums?

LLW: Low level workers
MLW: Medium level workers
...
The rest you can figure out, I'm sure.
