Why do I need Contracts?
Negotiating Contracts grants you access to new Buildings, Units, and Services.Build the Contracting Office to begin negotiating new Contracts.
Upgrade the Contracting Office increase the speed of your contract negotiations. Negotiating or renegotiating a Contract will cost Rations, Fuel and Munitions. The more advanced the Contract or the higher its upgrade level, the more each negotiation will cost.
After the first few Contracts, you need to start acquiring a set number of Contract Referrals to before you may begin negotiation on new ones. Each day you visit your base, your contracting office will write you new Contract Referral towards a new private military Contract. You will need to collect all Referrals required in a set before you may unlock this Contract. (Example: If you have 3/6 Referrals for Logistics Support and 5/6 for Maintenance, you still can't start negotiations on either one. To complete each set, you can trade with other players for the Referrals you need - so in this case Trade 3 of your Maintenance Referrals for 3 more Logistics Support Referrals, then you can begin negotiating Logistics Support.)
If you negotiate all Contracts that don't require IPs, you will receive a boost to your Fuel and Munitions production. Your boost will begin the day after you have negotiated all Contracts. Once a new Contract appears, your boost will be placed on hold until you negotiate the new Contract; in which case the boost will begin once again.
What do I do with Referrals I don't need?
You can trade Referrals you don't need for ones that you're still looking for by visiting your Contracting Office or your Logistics Exchange.For example, if you have 3/6 Referrals for Logistics Support and 5/6 Maintenance, you can trade 1 of your Logistics Support Referrals to complete the maintenance set.
