Ok.
This is my analysis on this game.
Some of the guys went just for dev. points. They wanted to see those R4 units but at a price. no/limited resource plundering
This was the worst option ever. You can have R4 units that are maybe 10-20% better than R3 but you are limited by the number of bases and the by the grain you can produce to keep that army from starvation. (20k grain per base, 5 bases -> 100k grain consumption army, best case scenario)
Very few, and very few (ladyluck, me and others), chose another strategy, and this is a strategy adopted by many NWOL. Keep yourself at captain rank and plunder from lieutenant to the highest rank. Most of deserted accounts are at second lieutenant of lieutenant. (Look at the top). In this case, you get as many commanders and trucks as possible, look for inactive accounts and bring enough resources to have a much bigger army than any top 5 players.
This is called strategy and not cheating. Yes the game needs improvements, needs bug fixed, needs a lot and most of all it needs someone with experience in this kind of games to balance things out.
