is there way to make good money?

[cheebus weebus]

cos everytime i got an order i need to take loan so i can order more resource so i can do the order but then i need to pay all the money i make from order to pay the loan and then i have start all over


so two the dev please add a better way to make money cos right now its really hard to keep things going round


by all means this is really nice good so far dont get me wrong devs i have kinda be waiting for game like this for so long but the game dose have money problem also it seems like the rivals are way to aggressive with the contract on easy

One suggestion I have from running two separate campaigns to 1925 is to build a design that can pretty comfortably win in volume in advance, then offer the tank at a far expedited deadline, if you got a good shot at winning the contract, such as "Wire Crusher" and you have the Whippet and the William Foster Hector Mk1 is your opponent early on, well you can upcharge the UK and if possible increases the units sold at the personal cost of a much shorter deadline, just make sure you keep track of what the contract mandates.

So far those two campaigns on the Normal difficulty setting have ended at 19 and 27 million figures respectively at the cutoff point I set of Christmas 1925. And that was with experimenting with funky designs like a bastardized Schneider CA with the final Tier 1 UK hull gun, Renault FT turret and 37mm gun plastered in HMGs to fight the A7V hordes.

That is techno-heresy if I ever saw one!

I asked my Techmarine, as I play Fallen DA on the tabletop.

He said it was fine. I sold some to the UK just before Sweden decided to push from Scotland into England, Willian Foster Hector MkVs lost horribly to "Odin Ausf.C" A7Vs, suddenly these meme post incarnate "Dewm Buses" (Yes I named them Dewm Bus, I was having WAY TOO MUCH FUN SPITING THE MACHINE GOD) went 10 vs 36 A7Vs, 3 A7Vs were left in the Swedish battlegroup after they lost, not a single Dewm Bus was lost lmao.

I will meme on them all for the profit.

It is at the moment pretty crucial to get the first few contracts, but it is also not very hard to do that.

Just design on the first day a tank with all the pre-designed parts.

Then start producing it as soon as it is designed (units produce before the kinks are ironed out at the testing range get automatically "refitted" by the game).

About two month in the first contract comes out.

Buy the info for your competitor, contract for as many units as you can.
If you are not sure how quick you produce, just leave the standard time in place (usually enough to produce the tanks required) and just raise the price until you are just a bit better than the competition (your number should be green).

Build them, sell them.

The next two contracts can be won the same way.

By the fourth contract you should be on solid ground (even on the hardest setting).
By that time you should start building a Whippet tank as contract six or so will be for an exploitation tank.


Since others have already shared their super tanks, I have found that a Whippet body and whippet tracks with the second most advanced engine (of course pimped with the best parts though take care of weight) equipped with the French FT-17 turret and its gun as well as 4 machine guns is competitive for all bids expect cavalry, saturation and rationalized tank for as long as I have played (the most common variant had somewhere north of 50 Fame points).

That is a tank for under 10000 €, under 10000 working hours that can be sold for as much as four times the price, though usually it is around 3.something as a multiplier.

That is basically a license to print money. At this point my main problem is that I cannot possible service as many contracts as I can win, meaning I select for high prize contracts.

Just make sure to keep building tanks and reduce the time needed to fulfill, you got enough tanks to set aside just under 3 weeks to fulfill even with a delay? You can set quite the huge profit margin.

If you wait for a contract you are pretty much doomed.

the problem there is no other way to make money other then contract and while i wait for contract i pay bills so if i dont get contract i dont make money and if i cant make money i cant make tanks

The only way that accounts for your troubles if you are already doing as we describe is that you overspend.
Do you build lots of add-on buildings early on?

Yes.
Under those circumstances I am surprised you are still running.
I would advise you to for high price contracts then:
Don't go for many units but go for the highest price you can get, which most likely will involve only selling from stock.

[jsmxiii]

So, I did a little test run on hard difficulty.
Even then you are on pretty solid ground by contract 10.
