New resources

[unmerged(11610)]

There are two new resources, first is with lighting-icon and second is money icon. Any idea what they are?

Second is money/gold of course and second...?

Ready fuel? Air fuel? Electrcity?

# of lightning bolts as recieved from God of thunder and rock n' roll

The first I would hazard to guess represents all forms of electrical power and resources that drive it, except oil of course. Such as coal, wood, hyrdro-electric, etc.

The last one....at first I thought it was money, but it could also be something along the lines of strategic minerals.

After winning enough battles, you can call down a miracle from the Gods, just like Age of Mythologies.

Cool. So if a country has like 21 mana he can throw a fireball with 20 in damage and the other country can then throw a counterspell if he has 2 blue mana.
Finally another computergame with Magic!

No, the highest level on the Tech Tree would be Toblerone.

Snickers-Hershey-Kinder Egg-Toblerone. Thank you.

No, no, no. After Mars comes Bounty. It is common knowledge...

It would be great if when you use your miracle you would hear a booming voice say "Moooooossssseeeessssss!"

Well, for anyone playing Germany it would be quite scary experience...

Getting back to the topic. *hrrm* What possible use could money be in a game like HOI? That second icon must be something else.

 

[unmerged(14683)]

I guess for the same it is used in real world - to buy things?

 

[roberd]

"money icon"-diplomatic icon

Yes food was more strategically important than money. Germany tried to starve Britain in the Battle of the Atlantic, and food was an important factor for most nations.

Money was pretty much generated as it was needed during the war through borrowing war bonds...... With the overall cost left to the next generations. Britain finished paying her war debts to the US only a couple of years ago, but I don't think money ever was a limiting factor in the British war effort and starvation was certainly a greater risk than banruptcy.

Just my own thoughts though

Yes, of course, but in HOI you have IC for "buying" new units and research, DI for "buying" diplomatic actions, and supplies that represent the beans and bullets that keep your divisions fighting. So what would you need money for?

So what would you need money for?

Maybe for buying from wourld market?
