Cobra you can play to a great level without having to spend anything, yes there are things you can spend money on they gotta keep the game and the servers going somehow, but it is really up to you if you choose to spend anything or not, there is in game currency (Silver Lions) that buys many planes and upgrades but you earn that yourself through how well you do each battle, it is a great game, when you download it, click menu look for Squadrons then type in search box xtremeidiots in planes then apply to join our Squadron and we will accept you.

I am just trying to remember when i first started playing Cobra, think you get a bonus for playing 1 week then a bonus for playing 2 weeks then another after 1 months play, trying to think if i did get some Golden Eagles, you do get lots of Silver Lions and experience points though, If you look through all countries planes there is only about a quarter that you actually need Golden Eagles for, some are not even great planes, i usually use mine to buy a Premium account that gives you a lot more points after every game, just build up your Silver Lions and buy the planes that are available to you and also use them to rank your crews and your weapons and that will really improve your planes, i am still using level 5 or 6 planes and i am level 9 or 8 on all countries, you can play this game to a very good level without having to spend anything.
