>What is BLOC?
BLOC is a Cold War simulator where you are a third world country. As of now, MLPOL doesn't have an alliance. If there is interest, we can make one

>How can I join and bring glory to the board and horse pussy alike?
Go to https://oppressive.games/bloc/
Fill in the blanks.
Post your country name and region in this thread so we can invite you. Preferably we should be in the same region so we can protect each other if we'd be smaller.

Rumsod is a nigger when it comes to the layout, it should be fixed soon. It's been a while since a pone alliance has been in this game.

>Common mistakes:

>HURR DURR SHITTY INTERFACE
The game is supposed to be a cold war simulator involving more diplomacy than actual war.

>HURR DURR ITS BORING AND ONLY FARMING AND BUILDING UR NATION
This is true to some point due to the diplomacy, but a war always comes up sooner or later. Our objective would be to become the strongest alliance.

Well to end the war as quickly as possible, I'd guess navel bombardments, depending on how many troops are left. Then an air attack from Easternside2 who hopefully shouldn't loose any planes due to the size difference, but...

That's way too much, I have only 27,000 pop unemployed now and I'm going to build a factory in two turns, not counting additional mines. Bear in mind though that the three of us will have to send a quarter of our militaries to you to balance things out (after which we can't get any more troops without buying them from outside), so I'd say 148k would be a good amount. We'd each send you 37k which would bring all of us to 111k troops.

I'm working on having a very decent air force then navy. It would be helpful to have weapons production internal to our alliance because it would be difficult/costly to buy weapons from outside.

>>137719
Training is very good but I'd advise keeping only a "standard" level of training in the 40's until we finish our troop sizes, because every time you receive new troops they have 0 training and bring your average down. Four elite armies of 111k each is nothing shabby.

I am okay with having at least 200k troops. Lay it on me boss.
I like to strike fear before they even have a chance. Also having enough armies to send back (which is also sent back with 0 training) so keeping a large stock pile then a transfer the fewest amount of times would be the most cost effective.
Only problem would be fuck tons of spys or a nuke to wipe the nation.
Oh and something about using up loads of weapons per deployment or something.

Actually, scratch that, I have only 1,400 square kilometers left and that's enough only for a factory and a university, both of which I want to get. So, unless if I find a bunch more nations to conquer, I will head into economic decline eventually.

>>137735
>spies
Well, always keep a spy hunter in your country and sweep the country every so often
>weapons
If you're turtling up defensively and providing reinforcements to whoever uses it, that wouldn't require any weapons. It would be impossible to counter a nuke and if someone wanted one we'd need to provide ALL our research for a bunch of turns to get it in a decent amount of time. Chemical weapons would be a more realistic project.

I've run out of usable land and since mines were my biggest expense I'll have an accumulating fortune as I wait for my economic growth to stagnate. I guess this means I don't have to sell research anymore. What should I do with all this money? Maybe I should buy weapons and MG to build up my military? Or maybe I should just donate more to the alliance bank. Let me know if you need anything and I can try to buy it for you.

White peace has been sent. This highlights the direction of attack we're likely to face (Invictus has a few powerful members in Central Europe), and shows that we are outmatched in terms of having weapons. I'm not sure how we can get more, presumably from production and the market, but we should all aim for the higher area of Korean War Surplus.

Agreed. I think in terms of troops this is why I think we should be all around the 200 range, even if it can be hard making that work I think it'd be well worth it in the end. We should definitely aim in getting wep. factories as well as a few normal factories to help produce MG and make ships/planes while having a great number of weapons.

Tbh I'd much prefer a MDP with Mercenaries. If it comes to it we could withstand the storm of Invictus with a decent army, air force and navy. However, Mercenaries are much more regionally concentrated and we simply cannot go to war with them. If a MDP isn't possible with Mercenaries only then should we go with Invictus.

If possible, go ahead and send any spies you have toward my nation. Overtime it'll build experience as you withdraw and re-infiltrate per turn, as well as providing experience for any spy hunters. In turn if you want me to send spies to your nation for you to build experience with your spy hunter as well, that would be fine. Also, you only have to find the spy, not expatriate or kill it. Only do so if it's a spy from another alliance.

Go ahead and withdraw ~20,000k to spend on mines/facs/whatever you need to try and get the growth back on track. I'd go ahead and spend a lot of it on Great Leap Forward since you're Central Planning in order to get your growth raised and the rest of it on making sure that your factories are not only receiving the RM/Oil they consume in order to make MG but also getting more mines in order to increase your natural GDP.

Congrats! I'm still adhering to the rule of specialization because the research and MG I'm producing are useful in their own right. I'd beware of Invictus though because of the programs they have. Most of them just make domestic policies cheaper but their freedom of information gives them a massive boost in research because of the more than 60 universities they have. I'm afraid they'll snowball, but they definitely will be getting nukes before anyone else.
