NATO Standard is a Double Double, you're just odd. I don't even drink coffee, so I guess that makes me even worse.....

Actually NATO Standard is Black with a couple of seconds of Bailey's being poured into it.   ;D

Mike, did you quel the insurgency or something to surge your power that much?

I have spent all of my CR points on quelling it and it's down to ~30% in KAF, but before I did that I did a lot of Tim's missions because the rate of CR vs experience looked favourable.

That's the only thing I can think of that you could have done to leapfrog me...hmm...

Petamocto... haven't touched the insurgency yet, but I was able to cash in some medals and get a higher max Combat Readiness as a result. Specifically the MilPoints Balance medals, I cashed in the first 3, you should be able to get the same ones. (Note: there was a bug yesterday where those medals didn't show as available at first, so you might have missed them...)

Ahaaaa!

Yes that is the trick.  Just saw the new medals today and the attributes skyrocketed.

KAF insurgency locked down, woohoo!

I'm liking it so far. Pretty awesome game.

I've always wanted to make a Facebook game, but I didn't have the ideas, nor the spare time to create it.  :-\

Gotta say. I've never been interested in facebook games (or even facebook) but this game is pretty addictive!

It takes a few turns to really get things going but once you pass about level 4 or 5 it's a blast. Tactics really start coming into play.

To all you guys who designed this game, frigging amazing.  Thanks, I hope I can sneak it by the filters at work lol

There were a few Facebook games that worked through the DWAN firewall when the programs were changed. They've since tightened the security but this may work as its new. Hopefully someone that works on the DWAN Firewall is also a member here and plays the game, surefire way to keep it open!

I finally broke out of level 4, feels good being the only level 7 in the entire game. ;D

And now I am poor.  :(
