    Ouch, apparantly 3 of my allies were not as strong as they claimed. 3 fleets were defeated, and 3 planets were taken. I really hate starbases. 80 BS vs a lvl 15 SB, and I lose about 30 ships. If we manage to keep half of his planets sieged, we might be able to take him out, but it's looking pretty bad.

    [plug]

    So if you want to send some cash, send it to Crisp! <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    And Heart of Rana is overated, my Memory Jar is just as good for a third of the price. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I made a big mistake lastnight.
    I was impatiant and I sent my fleet to the next target planet.
    it had 1400 attack point total.
    a few hours later I saw that the guy who was suspose to attack that planet 2 days ago, finally arrived. My fleet hit his fleet of 16BS, 1C, and 40D and smoked it.

    I destroyed my alliance members FLEET!
    I mean SMOKED IT!
    I only lost like 6 BS, 1 C and 3 D

    When I saw my mistake I send as many alarts to him as I could but it was too late!

    This morning I gained 1000 exp but had killed off the main fleet of my fellow member... I felt very bad!

    So I sent him 4000 ASTROs to make up for it.
    I got to be more careful!

    bad news
    the first place player has 415 points.

    the game resets once someone has 500 points for 1 week!

    SU's are at the highest price they have ever been.
    1453.87 per SU.
    Bad time to buy, good time to sell!

    Also

    PP are at an all time low, only .95 per PP.
    Great time to buy them!
    for 1000 Astros you would get 1052 pp!

    Heh, yeah, Majin, I magically predicted the price of SUs a couple days back. Bought them at the average of 700 and 800 or something, and sold them at 1500 the next day... wewt to me.

    SU's are bad this low, more is spent on transfer taxes and artifacts are more expensive <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Though it is good when you get an SU from player lavels and sell it for PP
  • uranium_235uranium_235 Join Date: 2002-11-20 Member: 9478Banned
    You only pay taxes when you give money to other players. And artifacts will only get more expensive. Look at the trend. They rarely, if ever, drop any appreciable amount in cost.

    I have one transport heading to another planet in my system, and I have a colony ship almost done which will be directed to another planet. Then I'll build a warship....

    I've just begun and that's ALL I've got! I figure I should expand first (while everyone in the system has little to no weapons) and when I have 3-4 planets, I'll be able to build stuff up much faster.

    I've been concentrating on energy upgrades so my ships can get from place to place faster (to protect all 3+ planets)

    Whats cool is that if all of us (on the front page) ganged up on anyone who messed with any of us, we can't really be stopped. Even if we can only contribute a single destroyer each, thats 41 destroyers. Or cruisers, or battleships. (and my name isn't even on the first post yet)

    Dont worry about the game ending fellas - when people start getting close to 500, they have to hold it at 500 for over a week. And they cant recieve any donations when they are over 450. As you can imagine, this leads to massive battles, as desperate people try and take down mr 500 before the week is over. This game is FAR from over.

    Updated front page, please tell me if you havent submitted your details/addy/I've missed you.

    Not entirely correct underdog, you will only lose your colony ships if A) they are attacked or B) you send them to an unfriendly colonised planet. If you show up at an uncolonised planet and you dont have the sufficient culture, they will just tell you they refuse to colonise.

    My transport just arrived, but evidently the planet is not yet mine. What gives? Can transports colonize uninhabited planets, or do I have to have a colony ship for that?

    Can one colony ship colonize several planets, or is it a one time deal thing?

    Transports Kill other ppls population and if you have the culture, the planet becomes yours.

    Colony ships can only be used on uninhabited planets, and sorry, each Colony ship can only be used 1 time. But the good news is that unlike Transports (where you need as many as the planets population), colony ships work alone. You can send only 1 and it will do the job!

    Give the game a week and watch as you become MUCH stronger!

    There are 4 people in my system now, I'm in the lead at the moment but just barely. 1 seems to be AFK and never logs in.

    If I could get an upper hand, I could probably take over the entire system. I just hope I'm faster or that the other two start fighting each other.

    Well as was metioned in my previous opst, 6 of us (down from seven) were attacking another player who owned his entire system. 3 of my allies underestimated the power of a lvl 15 starbase, and got smushed, lowering his starbase level to 14. The other 3 each managed to take two starbases out, but then one got his fleets wiped out. I retreated with 10 battleships to recoop at my home system, and am returning tonight with 50 battleships. Luckily for us, one of our allies won a shocking battle:

    ds:32/c:19/bs:37 vs. ds:139/c:10/bs:13/sb:14

    or

    2772 CV vs 2601 CV

    While it may seem like he had the upper hand, realise that the defense from the starbase (1164 CV) counts for almost twice as much normal CV. This battle elimated all of our enemy's fleet.

    Here is the current status in his system:

    <img src='http://server2.uploadit.org/files/311003-attack2.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image'>

    Hopefully as we return with reinforcements, we can resiege the 6 planets without starbases. Then, we can start colonizing in his system and use spend all points to own him.

    To conclude:

    Give me money/wish me luck.
