Correction, I meant buy and dispose of a defence of about 20mil of each unit type. I would tend to aim for maybe:

Cyborgs: 25,000,000
Juggernauts: 20,000,000
Hovercrafts: 20,000,000
Dreadnoughts: 17,000,000

Carolus Rex · May 15, 2003, 13:26

Quite a long thread so forgive me if this is posted already. What are the system requirements? I'm running Windows NT (service pack 6) at work and a lot of free games out there are out of bounds for me...

So, what do you need?

I have a Pentium II 400 Mhz CPU, 128 MB RAM, no clue about the graphics card...

Carolus

Lazerus · May 15, 2003, 13:31

Its web based and a very simple game so anything faster then a spectrum will do fine

Barley · May 15, 2003, 13:47

Yea, im running a P3 600 Mhz and have no probs, like Laz says it should run on anything.

#46 has attacked us, hes not doing very well, took land off ottomania but im hammering back hard.

Need to keep up the attacks, as soon as he attacks again he will be open to more attacks. Hit him contsantly with Standard attacks. If anyone needs money or units let me know. Its cost me about $15bil already but look what damage ive done. He's already used all his turns. lol

Barley · May 15, 2003, 17:03

Laz, looks like our defences worked! this went well I must say. I was able to get on the counter attack straight away. Hes in protection again with few turns.

I only have about 30 turns left so could do with some of you other clan members holding the fort.

Barley · May 15, 2003, 17:05

HIT ME FOO! (#46) attacked you! You held your defense and your enemy was repelled, but you lost:
40,506 Hovercrafts
You managed to destroy:
605,817 Zeppelins

Barley · May 15, 2003, 17:17

The war reports above shows how vital the counter attack was. Thr held defences of Laz and I must have took out about 1mil of his units, my standard attacks probably took most of the rest. Thus another of his attacks against Ottomania failed.

Hes basically bought about 5mil Aerial units lost them all and lost 4k more land than he had before he started.

All told he used about 500 turns, guess the first 400 were grain harvesting. We were lucky he did that harvesting as id only 70 turns left (20 after I recovered my health). Keep an eye on this guy and if you see his Net Worth suddenly jump (up to 100mil in this case) watch the stats and as soon as he attacks - buy up extra defence if needed and go on the counter attack.

Barley · May 15, 2003, 17:41

Just rebuilt my defence, this little skirmish actually cost me about $20bil but it was worth it, I kept my land this time. A big defence cost a lot of money but I can earn it back in about 600 turns cashing.

Cyborgs: 20,162,877
Juggernauts: 20,209,146
Hovercrafts: 23,044,535
Dreadnoughts: 12,532,346
Master AIs: 3,342,517

NB. At future level vs past, you are most vunerable to Aerial attacks, then bombardment.

The relative attack:defence values for each unit type (future stated first)

Guerilla 2:1 (attacker needs x2 units to succeed)
Bombardment 3:2 (attacker needs 2/3rds units to succeed)
Aerial 3:7 (attacker needs about 2/5ths units to succeed)
Hydro 7:6 (attacker needs about x1.2 units to succeed)

Barley · May 15, 2003, 18:03

Tip of the day

Instead of selling units on the black market (at a massive loss) before you take cash turns put them on the public market.

They probably wont sell (if you do you make a profit), however they are removed from your army, and I think you dont need to support them. You can remove them from sale when you want them back.

I just noticed I had 1.5mil hovercraft on sale, clicked remove and they have just added themselved to my forces. I think you can only put up for sale about 20% of what you own at any time but this is a way of reducing your sell/buy margin, it also provides an alternative supply of units in times of crisis or if the black market doesnt have many left (a sort of unit bank).

Barley · May 15, 2003, 18:07

Update on tip of the day.

Looks like you can put 80% up for sale

Unit Owned Can Sell Price Sell
Cyborgs 24,162,877 20,417,631 $32
Juggernauts 22,209,146 18,766,728 $68
Hovercrafts 26,753,535 22,606,737 $145
Dreadnoughts 14,532,346 12,279,832 $229
Batteries 33,279,328 33,279,328 $6

Lazerus · May 15, 2003, 18:30

you can put 80% up for sale but you lose 20% of the forces if you recall them.

Stole 2bill, will try get in another hit before i goto bed. Any americans/asians who will still be online over the next coming hours keep hitting him (prefer embezzle, if you cant, then take the land)

Barley · May 15, 2003, 19:32

Ponderosa #77 (RPMisCOOL) is an Apolyton member and as such I gather we are automatically allied with him.

I just sent him this in game message.

"i there, got your message at Apolyton. As an Poly member we will not attack you (just need to confirm that with all the others). Though we are running out of people to attack lol. Some of the members may not read the forum or get the message for a few days so please bear that in mind. I also suggest you forward this message to all Warrior members as a precaution."

Back.

Thanks for the money, and thanks for the rcon--nationofryan tried to attack me once (I held my defense very strongly, 386-8748 loss of Zep/Hover.) With that information, I think a little payback might be in the order.

mrmitchell · May 15, 2003, 21:01

Attack nationofryan (#18) while he is weak!

And offline!

mrmitchell · May 15, 2003, 21:13

Black Flag is actually being a pretty good milking empire for me--don't kill him. You see, every time I get on, he's got back up to 10,000 acres or so but still not a good army, so I cream him, and take most of the acreage. Then I run out of turns or money or health and I log off. Like magic, when I'm back on, he hasn't attacked anyone, but he's back to the land where the gains can be made!

(If this is a problem for any of you, i.e. SPY is more aggressive because of it, then let me know.)

mrmitchell · May 15, 2003, 21:23

Is it ok to get rid of 46? I tried attacking him and I don't think he has any military left at all (that of significance.

) Well I'll keep raping his land--er, reaping his land--unless someone says "no".

EDIT: Only able to get one in. *sighs*

Barley · May 15, 2003, 21:50

Yes keep on at #46. hes only got about 16,000 military.
