Your faction can't ensure they have enough dough in the bank to keep the war effort running. As such, what's the first to go in times of need? The New Conglomerate, in an effort to save costs on magical repair guns they keep losing every time their Engineers drop dead begins deploying them instead with a roll of duct tape that is surprisingly more effective. Your take?
NC command tries to cut both the respawn cost and armor cost. All infantry frontal armor is removed and 25% extra armor is added on the back. NC death toll was reduced by these measures.
Spandex uniforms haven't reduced the cost of uniforms adequately. To further reduce the nanite cost Vanu soldier uniforms have had all non protective and modesty materials removed. The new uniform will consist of thongs pasties and hardened ballistic nanoweave plate. Enemy soldiers have proven so distracted by the nearly naked Vanu forces the Terran Republic and New Conglomerate have issued a cease fire and initiated peace talks. The end of the war is a real possibilty. History will record it as "Vanu *** Saved The World".
due to low resources, the NC were unfortunately forced to fire the woman who sits in the office whining at the troops.
To lower ammunition costs, Terran Republic SOP has been revised so that soldiers only fire nearly all of their bullets at a possible threat, rather than all of them.
what's this cost nonsense? when faced with budget problems the TR merely takes what they need from the civilian population and if that isn't enough they convert to a food to mouth economy. the peace of aruaxis is at stake! a TR where you can't dakka dakka your clip empty is no TR.
Seeing that their very expensive technologies are only marginally better than conventional weapons, the NC and VS switch back to gunpowder and bullets instead of gauss assisted firing or lasers. In addition, the VS uses wheels instead of levitating. Due to these budget cuts, both parties can field a ton more infantry and tanks while still paying less, and having double and even triple barrels for their MBT.
Papa Vanu in the need of nanite savings simply harmonized the VS armory to be NS weapons which is what they all use anyway. Papa Vanu decided to harmonize the gender to all VS to be female only for that famous booty... Papa Vanu decided in the name of the war effort to remove the Harrasser as the Magrider full fills the same function. Papa Vanu has declared in the name of science that no more disco MAXes to be used to save energy.
