The United Holds has been given a unfair advantage over anyone else in the Asia region with his 4660 oil reserves. he cant of got the 4000 Oil reserves through legitimate means. 2 other members of Z.E.N incorporated have suspicious amount of reserves outside of the middle east The Dark Side in East indies with 4239 in oil reserves Lemonstan in the subcontinent with 3078 in oil reserves each nation has a link if you click on the nation name

Oil reserves are really not THAT much of an advantage; and Lemonstan could potentially have won a war against someone in Middle East and claimed a chunk of their oil reserves.

Lemon has only bet 1 nation likely and no one has had that many reserves that he would be able to gain 3000 oil reserves from one war
its still cheating and gives Z.E.N a advantage in Asia since they don't need to dedicate oil from ME nations to those 3

You're overestimating how much of an effect oil reserves have.

Honestly, you should be more concerned about the simple fact of their suprapact consolidating somewhere around 75% of the game under their respective banners. That alone REALLY sets them far ahead of any other nation in the game. |

   There's a few like that. But really, in Asia, the wells are more expensive to build than in ME and besides, oil prices drop below RM later in the game anyways. If anything I might chalk it up as rumcode, like every other issue in the game |

it isn't shit code its the admin moving them after they were in the ME and used oil exploration.
i saw United Holds in Egypt on reset.
Lemonstan has admitted they moved regions.

makes sense. but I guess the question then becomes, does it matter and why?
actually if you think about it, it makes those nations bigger targets in their regions

i already pointed out that they wont have to worry about the cost of Oil in Asia besides building wells and likely wont need to worry about spending money on oil in the future due to having a large stockpile to rely on.
they are in Asia but have benefited from the Middle east's bonus

It seems Lemon may ask rummy to reset those.... we shall see if he will reset them or not. I'm almost betting not.

Yeah, they've got *reserves* but that's not the same as spendable oil. The difference to production and economy is so small and so far away that it practically doesn't exist.

Yeah, this occurs when somebody in ME explores for oil and then asks to move regions. I myself did it because oil exploration is naturally one of the first things I do every iteration, then realized some peeps were doing an Asia based alliance and figured I'd join them. I have asked rumsod to reset the oil reserves of the nations listed, but it really shouldn't even be a problem, seeing how expensive oil wells are in non-ME regions anyway.

Damn he's onto my oil plot.
Either way I've dumped all my cash into being the best oil producer :^)
This is more of a crux than a bonus, since it leads to you being a better target later game. As people who have a lot of acs need the oil.
