Note on Economic Production

[unmerged(9422)]

I noticed in the latest "How to Win with.." thing in the FAQ, for the United States, it says that "You produce about 60% of the world's oil". I wonder if this means that HoI will tell the world production percentage for you of different resources...

I can't wait for this game

Yeah, I know..at least Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets comes out today so that is one days worth of distraction...then Saturday College Football, then Sunday and Monday History Research papers writing time, then Tuesday it comes out (and hopefully I will have received some of the Ebay money by then so I can buy it)...It is almost time!!!

This sounds good!
e.g. If you got 80% of rubber, you can control the trade price with other countries

Yes!

U.S. controls about 60% of oil production it says: They should not fight! They should remain neutral and sell oil to the warring parties! Rich rich rich!

I had to edit my last post...looked like I typed in the quoted area...made it look like Meiji was talking about Harry Potter.

Well, they were more or less doing that to the Allies till the Japanese attacked

Hahaha, I hope I'll be able to play the disgustingly rich isolationist US in one of my trips through the game.

No. The U.S. was split between people who did want war, and those who didn't. Roosevelt wanted to join the war, and the U.S. trade embargoed Japan, leading to Japan attacking Pearl Harbor.
