The great Llama Migration: Most people are well aware of this, but just as SBoL moved to Pakistan (or Pikestan as it is now known), the MU Blitzkrieg moved to Peru. This was done for many reasons, but ultimately the MU members were sick of the same old, same old, and this has given them a chance to make a real impact against VVV. Straight after the migration, Peru was accepted into Delta, and after a fruitful meeting, Spain also joined the fun bunch to make it an alliance of 4 nations.
There have been a number of MU's recruiting and making articles about it lately. The one thing that I can never understand are those MU's that offer full sups! Some even offer more based on if their members own estates and houses. So let me get this right. 15 Q5 food, 15 Q5 Gifts, 150 Q1 Weapons, + Tickets......is anyone aware of how much that costs? And especially for 40+ people? I am. But without telling you all, go and investigate yourself. Just a quick hint, even if MU's own all Q5 companies and have 1 person working in each company they are not even close to meeting the supply. Kinda makes you think, how is this possible? Here are some answers, VISA, slave labour, and multi's. Enjoy trying to find them.
Portugal Portugal Portugal......what are you guys doing? When it comes to this country, to be honest, nothing surprises me. A resistance war is started in an area that could provide surround penalties to the rest of their regions, so what do their strongest MU's do......they accept merc jobs elsewhere.....what the? Then when a RW is started in a useless area they decide to fight! Now, maybe I am missing something here, but I have never been able to understand nations where a majority of their MU's are mercs. It just ruins it for everyone else who is trying and counting on their damage. If I were these disappointed souls, I would look elsewhere.
Norway is back on the map! Norway has actually been a hype of activity this week. They got their territories back, and then they had one of the most heated elections ever with only 1 vote separating the winner from the runner up! Things are about to get tough for them as Lithuania have just set their eyes on them.
Oh Canada! We can hate all we like, but the fact remains, Canada is one of the most successful nations in this game at the moment. After holding UK, Ireland, and now after declaring on Netherlands, it will be interesting to see if this conquest can move to the lowlands. Currently sitting in 6th position in productivity, some of the other nations must be thinking...."why are we getting the short straw". Especially those who have been ardent supporters of their allies. *cough* *cough* South Korea *cough* *cough*. Well done to Canada, but it will certainly be interesting to see how the dust settles when the resistance comes.

Lithuania is yet again on a war path. This time the victims were Sweden. After Sweden successfully held off Poland a few weeks ago, this sudden insurgence of VVV force was just to much for them to handle. Time for Sweden to go back to the drawing boards and coordinate a good ole RW's in key areas while getting your territories back by buffing up with Q5's. With Delta re-shuffling, VVV took the bull by the horns and took the opportunity with both hands.
Slovakia gets my official "Thumbs Up" as they defeated Poland to gain one of their core regions back . Now this is great! Only a few months ago I was giving them a flogging by awarding them the nation of shame! Now look at them, 142+ million in a single battle! Enormous kudos have to go this nation. In the firing line of pretty much every Polish attack, this is a big win for them and their country. And after such a hard fought battle a referendum is in order for a little NAP with Poland........mmmmm...I understand why Slovakia is doing this, but as soon as any countries show VVV any pressure, they agree to a NAP, and all the pressure is taken off.
It was brought to my attention the other day about the Game Operators. Look, as a game master in another online game, I understand the whole concept of impartiality. But obviously since I don't have that role in this game, my requirement to be impartial has gone out the window so to speak.
Now, not to throw too much of a monkey wrench in the works, but I found this fascinating, I give you your GO's.
★ Anqa - VVV MU
★ BrucePD - anti VVV
★ Chasely - pro VVV
★ DannyD G - VVV
★ danyeo - pro VVV
★ KILL - VVV
★ kMeel - VVV
★ qba - VVV
★ Tasos - VVV
★ TitanSmash - pro VVV MU
★ Tremolite - anti VVV
Anyone see any trends?
What does this mean? Not much? The GO's do a great job and knowing from experience it is extremely difficult to monitor everything, but I have to admit that I get a little wary when it seems that favourtism is given, especially when you see a fellow player get muted for using a vulgar word (which he was rightly banned for), but then you see the same word being thrown around the SK shoutbox (VVV nation) like there's no tomorrow and the offenders get nothing except a few thumbs up.
For obvious reasons, I have deleted the word in question from the image.
United We Stand. This is interesting, why, because 1) it seems like the same old anti-VVV alliance and 2) it came a day after
But actually, looking at the nations involved, it looks like a very very strong force, complete with fantastic borders where nations can be easily secured and then they can play a complete supporting role, which is essential in alliances. It will be interesting to see what comes of this in the next few days, and to be honest, if this is done correctly, this alliance should be able to break up alot of VVV's strength.
This week spelled even more trouble for USA. After all of their past CP's fleeing the country, USA had high hopes for

About the game:
USA as a world power? In E-Sim it is possible!
In E-Sim we have a huge, living world, which is a mirror copy of the Earth. Well, maybe not completely mirrored, because the balance of power in this virtual world looks a bit different than in real life. In E-Sim, USA does not have to be a world superpower, It can be efficiently managed as a much smaller country that has entrepreneurial citizens that support it's foundation. Everything depends on the players themselves and how they decide to shape the political map of the game.
Work for the good of your country and see it rise to an empire.
Activities in this game are divided into several modules. First is the economy as a citizen in a country of your choice you must work to earn money, which you will get to spend for example, on food or purchase of weapons which are critical for your progress as a fighter. You will work in either private companies which are owned by players or government companies which are owned by the state. After progressing in the game you will finally get the opportunity to set up your own business and hire other players. If it prospers, we can even change it into a joint-stock company and enter the stock market and get even more money in this way.
In E-Sim, international wars are nothing out of the ordinary.
Become an influential politician.
The second module is a politics. Just like in real life politics in E-Sim are an extremely powerful tool that can be used for your own purposes. From time to time there are elections in the game in which you will not only vote, but also have the ability to run for the head of the party you're in. You can also apply for congress, where once elected you will be given the right to vote on laws proposed by your fellow congress members or your president and propose laws yourself. Voting on laws is important for your country as it can shape the lives of those around you. You can also try to become the head of a given party, and even take part in presidential elections and decide on the shape of the foreign policy of a given state (for example, who to declare war on). Career in politics is obviously not easy and in order to succeed in it, you have to have a good plan and compete for the votes of voters.
You can go bankrupt or become a rich man while playing the stock market.
The international war.
The last and probably the most important module is military. In E-Sim, countries are constantly fighting each other for control over territories which in return grant them access to more valuable raw materials. For this purpose, they form alliances, they fight international wars, but they also have to deal with, for example, uprisings in conquered countries or civil wars, which may explode on their territory. You can also take part in these clashes, although you are also given the opportunity to lead a life as a pacifist who focuses on other activities in the game (for example, running a successful newspaper or selling products).
At the auction you can sell or buy your dream inventory.
E-Sim is a unique browser game. It's creators ensured realistic representation of the mechanisms present in the real world and gave all power to the players who shape the image of the virtual Earth according to their own. So come and join them and help your country achieve its full potential.
Invest, produce and sell - be an entrepreneur in E-Sim.
