Its now been a few days since I joined the game and its still a bit confusing for me since I havent yet got my finger on the game yet. (and havent had much time to do detailed research) I have learned a few things though, of which some were pleasant surprises to me.
1. You can actually gift yourself! In the other game, you could only be truly gifted by others. Seems here gifts just basically mean additional ways of earning health beyond the daily limit.
2. That MUs actually mean something! the better the level of the MU, the more damage %age you receive?

Stuff I found of interest...
-the stock market. Whilst not exactly the easiest to master, its definitely interesting enough for its possibilities and to me who cannot quite make much sense of economy, its the quickest possible way to make money. I have invested in a couple of companies, wonder how that will go! I also realised that we do not have a single Q5 Indian company? (correct me if Im wrong) Perhaps Q3 owners might think of listing their company publicly and collecting a pool to make their Q5s?
- Civil wars - very interesting concept! more so when you realise that only a nations citizens can participate - which makes perfect sense.
- Newspapers - Amusing that I can even sub to my own newspaper. Basically means that no one shall be unloved and EVERYONE will at least have one reader
********************************************************************
and finally ...Some things that NEVER change...
- Hamturk - always acerbic, always the Scot. Welcome
- MOMC - poor Ishabad plugging away on his own. All the best to him!!!

thats it from me for today - more when I find something of interest in the coming days

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.
Take part in numerous events for the E-Sim community.
