You're GOOD at this. World-class at supply chain optimization.
And it's meaningless. Packages arrive Tuesday instead of Wednesday. Consumers barely notice. Your genius serves: Bezos gets richer.
You could solve these. Your optimization algorithms. Your route planning. Your inventory management.
But you'll never get the chance. Modern military doesn't need revolutionary logistics (no wars to fight). Corporate logistics is just... getting packages places.
Rally to Steppe as independent merchant. You're not fighting. You're SUPPLYING fighters.
And armies pay well for reliable logistics.
Your model: Contract with factions to provide supplies
Services offered:
Join faction directly: Golden Horde seeks logistics optimization expert
Your role: Chief Supply Officer—manage all faction logistics
Compensation: $400k/year + profit share
Challenge: Supply 11,500 warriors across 920,000 km² contested territory
Less profit potential but more stable. Salaried position vs. independent merchant risk.
Revenue breakdown (Year 1):
• Food contracts: $1.8M
• Weapons supply: $900k
• Equipment logistics: $500k
• Total: $3.2M
Your optimization = Faction advantage. Faster supply = Better fed warriors = Victory. Your routes = Competitive edge.
Red Banner pays premium for your services. They WIN more when you optimize their logistics. They KNOW this.
You're not replaceable cog. You're STRATEGIC ASSET. They protect you. They value you. They NEED you.
