Can someone explain what we're supposed to do here?
Like a general idea.

Well you are currently a member of the army. The only thing you really can do at the moment is create a thread with a new idea of something that could benefit the army. (It could be anything from a new genre of music to political propoganda to high tech devices) Once done, and if good enough you will be promoted to commander. Then the fun starts. Once you are a commander you may post in all battle threads and whatnot and join the battle yourself with your own legion. (which you can specify in the Soldiers Thread, they may start out in small numbers at first, but they'll increase in size over time) As a commander you can also start a research tech chain for some research you want to add to the army. (can't be too far into the future and has to have realistic-ish limits) Welcome to the army.

If we start researching, then where does the money go?

To research, in essence it gets taken out of the system to pay for the implementing the research into the army. You at the moment can't start research because you haven't made a promotion yet, but if you make it to commander you'll be able to start your own research chain.
(It's in fact the only money sink on the forum. [although its no where near large enough to counteract for the money gains from the Federal Staff Bank and Posting Income])

It dissipears once used. It goes to no one, just research.

Exactly, I thought this forums needed a money sink.
Oh and Rubiksmaster, one thing you should now is that research chains should be 10 - 20 posts long. (And the cost of the research is directly proportional to the posts it takes. 10 posts - > 100DBs. 20 posts -> 200DBs)
Lastly, if you want to start a research chain or have your own legion you have to do something for the army to get promoted to commander. (It could just be a GIMP'ed poster for our propaganda thread, or a new thread with a completely new and well thought out idea)

We have another moneysink. Just look at the Dan-Ball shop. It's a massive moneysink.

Oh yea, money from there goes back into the 'Federal Bank'. So we have two money sinks.
