I feel that it would be a great improvement for the Military Unit to have the ability to write articles instead of the recruitment article being under the name of one of its members because this is for the Military Unit, the overall will of the Military Unit would be felt and have more significance to the reader if it is under the MU specifically. What is the significance you may ask? It is in unity. By creating articles under the Military Unit, it exemplifies that all members of the unit in question are united under that MU's beliefs and positions on issues, as a basic tenant of most MUs is unity and brotherhood, at least I think many people would agree.
I really am drawn to the vast array of options one as leader of a MU can give to his members, from managing storage to directing military orders, and everything in between. The addition of a official Military Unit newspaper editor I believe would be worthwhile because it really add a great responsibility to whomever the leader chooses, as that person is now the voice of as many as fifty people. But this responsibility is quite a cool one, as you will be the main factor in the formulation of the public's opinion of your Military Unit.
The last and final reason the admins may think is just a way for we, the players, to try to squeeze out more gold (it is sorta, muahahaha) but I think in a variety of ways, its not a mere power grab for more gold. We all know how expensive it is to upgrade and expand a Military Unit correct? If the admins were to allow the Military Units Newspaper to be able to acquire subscribers and five gold for every one hundred subscribers, then that creates a huge incentive for MU leaders and their respective editors to write good articles, whether they be about the military units exploits in a epic battle, recruitment article, or just the MU's outlook on their country's current situation. With the gold they acquire from their MU Newspaper, they can reinvest in their Military Unit to make it better. Since this incentive is created, this will increase the amount of articles created, something that I think this game sorely needs, and since the articles will be geared at getting subs, they will be of higher quality.
Now, some of you might say "oh well Sadanaga, what if the MU's just publish sub my MU and we'll sub yours articles?" Now you think you have me, but I have a counter for this. The Admins can place a limit on how many Military Unit newspapers one person can sub at any one time. Lets say for example this limit was 5-10 Military Unit Newspapers. Ok, currently there are 440 Military Units, so the implementation of a MU Newspaper Sub limit on everyone would boost the competition amongst the editors of the MUs, thus creating a better quality (hopefully). But the main problem here is finding the right balance in the limit number, which I would say the Admins need to fiddle around with it to figure that one out.
Overall, this is a rather small implementation, but one that I think could be worthwhile if added correctly. There are more pressing suggestions that I feel should be taken into account before this one, but I hope you enjoyed this article and my suggestion, if you feel that its not a good idea, please state so and why you feel its a bad idea.

大家好，我不確定這個主意以前是不是有人提過，但是我想增加隸屬軍團（MU）的報紙對這個遊戲會是一個很棒的改進。有許多的原因讓我認為這是一個好的改變，這包括下列幾項：軍團可以使用這個功能來邀請新成員，而非使用軍團成員的報紙。軍團的領導者可以指定報紙的編輯來管理報紙，同時也為軍團的運作加入新的元素。另外，我想軍團的報紙也可以有自己的訂閱計數，所以它也可以獲得每一百人訂閱的獎金。
我會認為軍團自己擁有報紙且可以經由自己的報紙來招生，會是一個很大進步的原因是：這會促進軍團中各成員的認同感，同時對於讀者來說，會相對的有影響力。你可能會問說什麼樣的影響？是團結。經由軍團的報紙所刊登的文章，代表了軍團成員共有的信仰，認知和特定事務上的立場，這正是軍團成立的目的，團結和義氣。至少我是這麼認為的。
我個人非常喜愛軍團領導所可以下放的各種選項，從給予成員管理倉庫的權利到更改當日任務。而加入這個軍團報紙編輯的選項，在我看來是值得花時間去完成的。這不但是一個重大的責任，也是相當有趣的一件事，編輯將將成為這五十個人的發言人，並選擇如何表現這個軍團的意見。
最後，管理員可能會想到的一個原因，就是我們（玩家）想獲得多一些的黃金（哈哈哈哈），但是這不光是黃金的問題。我們都知道要擴展軍團是一件很昂貴的事情。如果管理員讓軍團的報紙成為一個黃金收入的來源（例如每一百個訂閱有5G的收入），將會大大地刺激玩家寫文章的主動性，不管這些文章是有關於招生，戰績或是軍團展望。這些黃金可以被用來讓軍團變得更好，而這些好的文章，也正是這個遊戲所需要吸引更多玩家的東西。
有些人可能會說“Sadanaga，那如果每個軍團都只是發些文章交換訂閱數怎辦？”你以為你找到我的漏洞了吧？其實我有解決的辦法。管理員可以限定一個人可以訂閱多少份軍團的報紙，比如說五份到十份。而現在的軍團一共有440個，因此軍團報紙的編輯將會想辦法提高報紙的質量（希望…），而剩下的問題就是管理員必須找到一個訂閱上限的平衡點。
結論就是，這是一個相對不大的更動，但是如果正確地實施卻可以得到很好的效果。也許有另外一些更急切的建議需要被採納，但是我希望你喜歡這篇文章和我的建議。如果你有不同的意見也請告訴我。

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.
