Also get on discord, because then we can boost you faster and you can coordinate w/ your fellow browser game friends.

Might want to strike out the part in the OP that says we're Black or at least append it to say "Stay beige for a couple days."

Better than that, you hide your stolen cash in baseball investments so it doesn't get stolen back when someone invades you.

Worth noting that this game is 5 years old, and in just a month GOONS has already managed to crack the top 20 strongest alliances, and keeps gaining ranks by the day.

Also, once we get 30-40 or so more goons on board, we will have enough people to vote for and change the name of the black color trading Bloc to whatever name we want.

Yes, whatever name we choose. Decided by goons...

We should've gone brown so we could change it from Typhon's self-aggrandizement into something they hate.

It'll look like this: https://politicsandwar.com/nation/id=180163

This helps the bot recognize you and do other things that help beat nazzis.

This sounds like exactly my jam. What's the bennies for referrals, and who needs one the most?

They pretty much just go into the warchest so just click whoever in the OP. It's a relatively small amount of cash and resources (non-goons would probably consider it a lot) but it'll keep our expenses low a couple months from now.

The game's mechanics are basically "bigger number wins battle", "gaining ground control weakens planes", "gaining air superiority weakens tanks", and "major sea victories block the opponent's ability to trade with other nations until they win at sea, you lose your ships to other nations' attacks or the war ends".

There are also missiles and nukes but you probably won't have to worry about them until much later.

Jumped on an officer of an enemy alliance right before he was beiged by another goon, he won't be able to rebuild before more goons are allowed to declare war against him.

Typhon just lost six more members in the past day and dropped four places in the ranking as a result. We might be able to knock them out of the top 50 with enough time.

All you can do is build things, amass troops, attack (and spy on) players and play baseball. That's the entire gameplay.
