I think that we can all agree that about 90% of the activity in a majority of most battles occur in the last 3 minutes. In my opinion, I firmly believe that if there was a method where we could make the battle module abit more "time" friendly, the activity on esim would further increase, which would benefit the game as a whole.
This is extremely straight forward, and would be easy to code and implement.
1) Each Round lasts 1 hour.
2) This means that there will potentially be 29 rounds.
3) BH medals accordingly would be changed to 2.5 gold.
4) Accordingly, the amount of defense points available should also increase. A good compromise would be 26 points available for Defense Systems, and 26 Points available for Hospitals
No doubt we would see a steady increase in activity, as the amount of potential "3 minute windows" of pure activity and rage are doubled!
There will no doubt be a few complaints especially in regards to the BH medal gold reward being reduced. Well, it is simple mathematics. Currently there are 15 potential 2 hour rounds. Thus 75 gold available for BH medals. If the change is made to 29 1 hour rounds, this then makes each BH medal worth 2.5 gold.
Also, no doubt people will also say that the BH gold to "how much I need to spend" ratio is decreased, but we have to think about this sensibly. At the moment there is 1) way too much gold in esim 2) the developers probably wouldn't want each BH medal to be worth 5 gold for a one hour round, as it reduces the likelihood of players investing in the game in terms of purchasing gold. 3) If it stays at 5 gold, the strong get stronger, the rich get richer, its as simple as that!
Alot of people will be against this, but I will say it again.....there is far too much emphasis on gold, and not enough on the actual achievement. If you want to win a BH medal and the gold you need to make an investment. You don't "have" to fight, no one is telling you to spend the money to win a BH medal and he gold, it is up to you. Basically everyone who is saying why decrease the gold just wants to basically have the chance to win a BH medal and get paid for it...ridiculous!
Look, the BH medals are something that people take pride in. The fact that you invest money to recieve the pride of having a BH medal far outweighs the gold that you potentially receive. Personally, if we are thinking about this rationally, the fact that 5 gold is given every single time a BH is given is in my mind ludicrous. Just think of all the time and investment that goes into getting 100 subscribers, or logging on every day for 30 days to get your worker medal.
By the way, if you are going to write a comment, rather than just writing something stupid like...."it costs me 4 gold to get a BH medal", please take the time to actually think about what you are writing and form a legitimate argument. Remember getting a BH medal, that is your decision. If you want a medal, you have to invest in it!
Also another factor is the building points available. I mention that a solution could be 26 Defense Systems points, and 26 Hospital Points available. Hospitals are one of the most under utilized elements in the game. Using this system it would add yet another element of strategy and increase the potential market for company owners.
Rather than just writing "No", would those people please care to provide some reasons why they would be against such a change?
Cheers,

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.
