Sorry, I'm totally hijacking the boards at the moment. I'm absolutely fascinated by this game!

Ok - another Q:

I'm in the process of rehabilitating a C3 that I captured. There is a public corp in the country that's unprofitable, and with a low welfare index. It's basically parasitic, taking up space and workers without contributing.

My host country can't buy shares in it as too many loans outstanding.

Can my leader country buy out the shares in that corp, and then rehabilitate it?

Cheers!

It's not that your hijacking the board, it's the fact that nobody ever posts here.

You can't buy shares unless they are for sell. Usually, players make sure all the share are controlled by themselves or another player. They generally won't just sell them.

I don't know if you can force the nationalization of a public corp or not, but you can look to see if the "Nationalize this Corp" button is available. Not sure how that would play out, though.

I'd try to contact the controlling player and see what you can work out.

It is a very interesting game, isn't it?

Some times it gives me that Railroad Tycoon, Zeus or Europa Universallis vibes.

Cris, make your citizens richt, increase their wages (government wages too) and see in financial index investment funds. use that money to buy shares on the market and you receive dividents in that fund. As your fund grows, 1% from total assets is paid out to population and they will buy more stuff, increasing consumtion.
also, if you have privately owned corporations in your country, set up special clinics (about 10) and back to work schools (about 5) and you will get extra workes you can use.
with your main country you won't get attacked by other players. dump your weapons as they cost too much. save up as much as you can deppending on how patient you are and build up an army when you are ready to conquer another country.
max wellfare in a country is 130 so you don't need to get over 130-140 with education, health, transportation. High salaries also contribute to wellfare
This game is full of tricks like this.
