Lets say that someone has 1.5 billion bushels in week 3 of may, What networth can he get ?

at a guess between 250 and 350 mil

but thats a very rough guess

I'd say an unlegit nw.

he gets deleted for cheating :P

So it isn't possible :/

not enough land to get that much stock, food price is too high, cant destock that much in time etc al.

If he/she FA's me 1/10, big. Otherwise, dead.

There's certainly enough time to destock it. I don't really think PM space is going to be a problem if you have that much stock.

The 1.5B bushels would get you ~196M NW destocking in the standard way.

all depends on tech levels - I always assume about 7 mil NW per 2 billion cash if you destock correctly....

which by my caluclations gives you......A FREAKIN LOT! (170 mil on the low end, but I'd expect 200'ish) :-)

In this situation the standard would be no MB theo, so he'd get

(2 025 * 0.8 * 0.9025) / 6.5 = 224.93 $/NW

destocking.

Hmmm, right now I have a little over 100M bushels stocked, so I could FA you 10M per day. If you had a different farmer in each of your 12 ally slots that were running about even with me, thats easily over 120M bushels per day in FA. If you were genning lots of food yourself, you could (in theory) have close to 1B bushels stocked by NOW, by the third week of May you could have . . . well, a LOT. You would have to destock on your private market to drop 3.5B bushels that late, but still . . . that would be a supremely sick ass finish, not to mention your 110B in cash would do to the market. The limitation would be how often you logged in to re-cash your bushels and whether or not the TMBRs could keep up with your buying pace. The other limitation of course would be having 12 friends.

ya, no-one who plays this game has over 3 friends.




j/k

it took me 7 days to destock a little over 1b bushels as a theo on 45k acres with 10k MBs. I have a spread sheet made out with private market prices, replenishment rates adjustable for the land, and cash equivalent of the bushels given public market sale price and adjustable public market tax rate.

1b was about 140m nw (and the amount of sells really effects end nw as 150m nw means you lose $80-100m/turn with each sale of bushels)

Jumping public can be much more efficient when you account for the total loss of cash per turn over number of sales + 6% loss on all sales (as a theo private vs demo public destock)

Ok. you destocked 1bn food as a theo on 45k.

How long did you stock for? and on how much land? What was the food market like?

There arent many if any countries in the game that would be able to go on and stock 1bn food this set. Not with food at 65$. Especially nothing tagged tie.

Military expenses have been greatly reduced for high NW countries.

aponic, I'd guess that quite a few of us would really like to see that spreadsheet, ;)

Torment last set the food market peaked similarly high and stay in the 50s for a while. I still managed to stock 911m food and my country was pretty crappy.
