Uhm...are you sure?
Because 11:8 is a Kd with many provinces carrying "binary names".
5:21 is also a "Binary Kd"...
(Oohh...only 50 honor points before I'm Lord  )

O well...it doesn't really matter
Just now, we have four n00bs in the Kd...and I'm getting kind of tired of one...I told him to stop bullsh!tting around, but my reply got deleted.
Sometimes, I'm really considering defecting...

In 10 minutes I'll finish my first buildings. I'm aiming on 270-280 acres OOP and then two attacks on two newbies which will bring me up to 400 acres.

Go to the kingdom page, select all and copy it. The Angel will tell you how many soldiers are needed to reduce one percent from the Dragon's strength.

I underestimated Paradise a bit.
I'll leave protection with 309 acres, and 14DPA.
Money is a problem for my planned growth, and that's why I'm reducing Libraries to 10% and farms to 6%(I have NB) to get 8% Banks. Also, I'm hoping that my thieves will save me from these problems.

Apparently the Paradise spell became much more effective while I wasnt playing and a new strat developed. I'll try it.

I was wanting to cast Paradise as well, but I never have enough mana, because we're constantly in war.
Some pathetic Kd (41:13) just declared on us.
Makeo, War4ever, there may be some good grabs open for you there
And we're in the middle of peace talks with 11:8, discussing the possibility of becoming allies in the future, but I'll leave all that to our Monarch.
As for now, I'm shaping my strat.
Eli, how do you think this looks for my "All-in-one"-tactic?
40% Homes
20% Armories
10% Watchtowers
10% Guilds
08% Towers
10% Hospitals
02% Stables

There is a max cap, and also the number of sci points needed to get to 100% of the max is aproximately two times bigger than the number needed for 90% of the max, so dont bother.
Check the Angel's science calculator for more exact numbers.

You need to copy their kingdom page before you copy their crystal ball. Then you will get an pretty good estimation on their number of thieves and wizards.
------
Zopper -
Check the Utopia forums. You can get lots of responses and suggestions there. I dont have time to check strats. Hell, I dont have time to make a strat for myself.
--------
Meanwhile I'm stuck in a newbie kingdom... Their level of english is even lower than their IQ, and they are constatly arguing on who should be the king.
But... I found a nice goldfarm with over 3mil gc and pillaged it.  400kgc will help me a lot. But the problem is that I now have only 11DPA for the next 18 hours.

How are you planning to play? As Thief/Mage, Mage/Thief, Mage, Attacker?
Quote:

I think the maximum depends on your size.
Quote:

also, the target finder..is it any good..i don't know how it works..

I think it's good, the data can be a few hours old, the database is not real-time. But don't forget to earn credits by copying Kingdom pages into the designated box (, they tell you which Kd page to copy-paste).
Quote:

First, you have to copy the Kd page of the province you want to investigate. Then do the CB on that province and voila!

I think it is time to to (how should I user the term) "sut up" it is time to get this kingdom moving if we need a new king so be it. But let's get this kingdom up to date no offense but we stink I know I'm still small but hey give me a chance and I could have this kingdom better than it ever was anyone with me or you could just attack me and take my kingdom but this is risk taking.

Banks are pretty useful at this size. When you get to sizes like 1500-2000 acres you can get rid of them.
When you're on 500 acres, every attack, or exploration day increasees your land by 10-15% and it will be hard to build everything and get more military for such drastic growth. But on 2000 acres, you grow by 3-7%, and it is much easier to do everything so banks are not needed.
Basically, your problem is that you use too many building types. 12 building types, most of them in percentages too small to make any significant difference. Get rid of the forts, unless you're a suicider. 10 Barracks reduce the attack time by 1 hour and increase offense by 1%, useless. 4% Thieves' Dens are not as useless, but this land can be used for better purposes, same goes for Watchtowers. Thieves' Dens and watchtowers are useful only for super-thieves.
So what do we have? 90 free acres, 20% of your land. If you want to be an attacker make them all barracks. Now you'll have 40% lower attack times. Or you can add 2-3% to both the towers and the guilds and send the rest to home and armouries.
In general, you need to use as less buildings as possible. I know that by 2000 acres I always end up with 3-5 buildings types.
-----------
Oh, and can you try to bring all the information about yourself formatted by angel? So that we wont need to calculate your buildings percents and DPA/OPA by ourselves.

ah so i have too much infastructure spread around........as it is some guy "loop: 10:1 broke me for 56 acres just as i hit 500acres  he must have been pretty strong..... either that or i think i am stronger than i thought....
ok later today i will raze my lands you suggested.....will i lose my thieves if i get rid of the dens like warhorses.... or will i need to make more dens if i need more thieves......
i would like to be a heavy attacker...... but i guess i need more elites for that.....seems like my army is too small

What race are you?
You wont loose thieves, but your stealth will regenerate slower and the thieves will be more expensive. Since you're an attacker you dont need to have many thieves so the price difference is insignificant.
Also, check the Swirve Utopiaa Strategy forum
http://boards.swirve.com/board.cgi?b...y&spec=4366395
There are plenty of strats for everyone there.

Yes, join now, DinoDoc! 
Wow, the Apolyton Utopia contingency is growing  , maybe we can ask Markos to make a Utopia Forum for us
War4ever,
This may be something you can do:
205-550 acres
25% Homes
08% Farms
30% Armories
10% Guilds
10% Towers
15% Banks
02% Stables
Focus on building up your military. Have about 9 or 10 defense specs per acre and 5 or 6 Elf Lords per acre. You don't have to attack much yet. Cast Paradise if you feel like it 
Train what's left over of your military into Thieves to protect yourself...from people like me
550-600 acres
20% Homes
08% Farms
20% Armories
5% Guilds
10% Towers
15% Banks
02% Stables
20% Universities
Time to do a Science pump here, it should be something like this:
Alchemy 30,000
Population limits 30,000
Offensive war 20,000
Food 10,000
Thievery 10,000
Channeling 10,000
Tools 8,000
Train 10 or 11 def specs per acre and and 5 or 6 Elf Lords per acre.
I hope this will help you on your way. After this you'll have to convert again, but I'll have to think about what is the best end strat for you.
But you can also look on www.utopiatemple.com there are some good strats there and a forum where you can ask all sorts of questions. I'm on that forum as well (as Lord Belthazor).

Hopefully, by saturday morning I'll have 450 acres.
In the next week I'm planning to get to 750 acres, with ~25-30DPA and ~1TPA. Then, a short sci pump investing 15k points in all sciences except War, and 7k in tools - total of 2,680kgc, hopefully it will take 4 days(depends on my thieves  ). Then 2 days of converting all those new peasants to Elf Lords  and then super fast growth until 2000 acres which shoud last 2-3 weeks. Then another sci pump, three times bigger than the first and then a decision concerning my future. Static Super Mage, Static Suped Thief, Attacker, or Exploring till 4k acres.
All this, assuming I dont piss off(yet again) a kingdom full of psychotic Dwarves.
