Article
Hello citizens!
I would like to introduce you my series of articles! I will publish them every now and again because of other pending things - also that is a reason why there weren't articles for some time. In articles I will describe informations about all the mechanics contained in the game. You - citizens - will choose a topic of next article. Everytime I will add a poll with my topic propositions BUT you can post your proposition in comment section - in every poll I will put two not chosen propositions from last article and one from the comments written accurate or one more chosen by me. I think those articles could be helpful not only for new players but also for experienced - who knows - maybe you don't know something what I know?
Also I am asking for your understanding - people are not perfect - same as my English but I'll try to do my best! End of introduction - let's start!
As you all know and who didn't know already knows, our beloved owner Railman together with developers gave us the opportunity to use buffs called special items. We don't owe them all on start but at any time you can check special items which you owe HERE or in one of tabs on the top:
Those are fastest ways to get in there. You can use e.g Equipment tab too and select Special items on the top. All of them are giving us some advantages (BUFFS) and some of them are giving disadvantages (DEBUFFS) when their duration ends. I will try to explain everything below shortest and best I can.
When we reach place where special items are stored we can see some useful informations about them:
1. type/name of special item
2. amount of special item
3. special item description
4. status of owned items (ready to use or possibility to buy)
5. button which is moving us to special items auctions
6. usage history showing
- Item - type of used special item
- Date - date of using special item
- Price - price of special item (I don't know for what is it existig because this info is useless and prices of medkits, upgrade, reshuffles are not correct)

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.
