Hi,
Just wondering, are reserves working the way they're supposed to?
I have 650,000 reservists and 100,000 active members as victoria after a night of leaving the game running (almost 8 hours) with 18yr old conscription & coed combat.
I've had my target military size at 400,000 for another 5 or so hours now at normal time, and I have kept getting more reservists... Is this working like it should? How do I get those pesky buggers to get back to work/unemployment figures?
My economy is taking a hammering thanks to them all lazing about, doing nothing! Isn't the whole idea of reservists that they work and train at the same time? Shouldn't they be unemployed/working in a factory UNTIL they get drafted into my infantry battalions etc?
If the above is not the case, and they're unavailable to work, why is that the case? Or how does it work?
I've got 1.9% unemployment and a horrid 26% inflation at the moment, I have taxes at full and domestic spending almost full in an effort to try and get past this but it won't work when a whole 5 or 6 % of my pop is unavailable i don't think.
At the same time I think my GDP is so high now that none of the products I make are competitive on the world market... which sucks!
Enlighten me!! =)
