LATVIA LEAVES THE VETO ALLIANCE
It has just been confirmed that Latvia, the strongest nation in the VETO alliance has decided to pack up their bags and leave. Sure, it is probably in their best interests as they were getting absolutely creamed by Russia and Lithuania, but what about us little guys?
Granted, their new status has enabled them to gain most of their territories back, which is a good move for them, but it is a huge blow for VETO.
The unfortunate thing is that actually VETO Hq had a plan, and when Latvia was a part of VETO they certainly did have a part to play. Look, I apologize if my words in the article seemed 'harsh' towards Latvia. I know that there is the case "well, when did Veto help us?" One of the huge problems is that a huge number of the Latvian battles were not organized and most resistance wars were started by either Polish or Lithuanian's as "drains". This automatically meant that the sLatvia automatically went to fight their resistance wars.
This resulted in a lose/lose situation for Latvia and Veto. Latvia lost their battles and Veto lost their battles as the resources were too spread out.
Don't take this as a reflection of Latvia in general, this is more of a stab at the mercenary MU's that can potentially do over 4 million damage on a daily basis, but when you add up their contributions to VETO designated battles, from about 20 battles, their total contribution doesn't even add up to 2 million! I know on multiple occasions, in closely fought battles, several Latvian MU's have actually fought against us, just to get Battle Hero Medals, and this resulted in us losing closely fought battles. These battles could have potentially changed the tide on many regions, but alas, it isn't meant to be.
(For proof of this, just go and check out a number of battles in Canada! These MU's know who they are.....they could have just as easily gotten their BH medals fighting on the Canadian side which would have resulted in wins for a VETO nation - and they still would have gotten their medals)
When I approached the one specific Latvian MU leader about why they were doing this they responded:
Yes unfortunately, for this MU, this style of playing has been happening for over a month!
"Do you understand that the world does not revolve around you and your "do whatever it takes, ruin as many people's lives, so long as you can make a name for yourself [in e-sim], no matter how many friends you lose or people you leave dead and bloodied along the way, just so long so you can make a name for yourself [in e-sim], no matter how many friends you lose or people you leave dead and bloodied and dying along the way"?

VETO now consists of the following countries, and this is their ranking in damage.
1. France - Ranked 19/29
2. USA - Ranked 23/29
3. Canada - Ranked 27/39
4. Australia - Ranked 33/39
5. Finalnd - Ranked 36/39
6. Mexico - Ranked 37/39
7. Switzerland - Ranked 38/39
8. India - Ranked 39/39
This gives us a total VETO damage as 5,152,435,670
The crazy thing about this is that the 50 members of several MU's like bay, have nearly half of the total VETO alliance damage!
There is no doubt at all that we are the official e-sim underdogs!
So, what can be done! Well, not a whole lot to be honest, but we are trying, and doing things like filling in the form below will assist us in figuring out the best offensive and defensive strategies!
This is what really needs to happen!
1. Imagine if the 3 biggest nations were in 3 different alliances?
2. All of the additional Defense systems in Indonesia need to be removed......it is COMPLETELY unfair. For instance JAVA
Everyone is allowed 26 points of Defense, [b]Java has 80 POINTS
........................................
Actually, the best solution is if a WHOLE NEW VERSION OF E-SIM WAS STARTED[/b]
(btw, this last statement is my opinion!)
Hehehe, while there is some truth to this, this game will definitely reach a bubble where all of the large nations have reached their limit of growth and basically have to turn on one another. Until that time, small alliances like VETO really wont stand a chance, and if countries keep on dropping like flies from the VETO alliance, like Latvia just did.....well, we all know where that is going to lead.

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.
