BLACK MARKET FOR MILITARY TROOPS
All country names and troop origins are scrubbed out so no one knows who made or making the units.
The only way to pay is money the seller demands or what the buyer offers in return.
This can show a list of unit types, unit level, manufacturing time, and arrival time and total cost.
The cost can be paid all at once before receiving the troops or a payment plan could be made based off both the receiver and sender's choice?
Example: Payment up-front
Example: payment per unit made
Example: payment per unit received
Example: payment once all units produced and received
The troops could be shipped using completely invisible transports that not even the sender or receiver can see but are only told the arrival time.
Or
They could be seen but are marked as unidentified or unknown by everyone else, only the sender can see the transports at all times.
When they do receive these troops, they will be disguised as the receiver's troops and not those who sent them.
The sender can use his/her own units to be disguised as unknown/Unidentified to escort these transports to the receiver.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Unit bidding can also be a thing for the black market?
Units that come in bundle that people are interested in can be bid
Example: ICBM launchers with Nuclear warheads can be sold together to the highest bidder
Example: 20 National guard units
Example: main battle tanks and 5 motorized infantry
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PUBLIC MARKET FOR UNITS
This could be a public section that is different from the black market
Receiver and sender's names are visible for both parties or the world in current deals
unit transports are visible to both the receiver and sender and those who can see them within visual radius.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This can work with people manufacturing warheads
People set a price and request or build
all names scrubbed
transports get sent
It's a good way for smaller countries who aren't fit to join in a server war to make money and build their own military
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This could work with those who wish to sell intelligence information for a price, in return for resources or cash.
Information seen from Military Pacts shouldn't be in this and only information agents gathered can be used.
Maybe add some kind of daily payment for those requesting the intelligence instead of full payment straight away, this could help those who have a lot of upkeep from agents and wish to somehow balance it with selling information
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Or those who wish to fund and arm local rebel groups against their enemies
Could be a section where rebels can request certain units, those who want to keep their enemies distracted can either pay to send units to rebels or donate their own units and have them be disguised as rebels without cost.
But this can show where the troops will be sent, that way they know which group they are arming and not some how screw themselves over in arming rebels in their own captured territory
This should have no effect on rebel status: peace or at war.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This could reduce the amount of players who wish to join the wars and start making profits
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Maybe add a coalition market
I'd like to sell resources only to my members at a cheap price without the world trying to grab it...
