i know your not speaking to me, but its going to take me like level 20 to get a descent movement speed... my race has a wonderful -45% movement speed

ZiGGY · March 2004

I believe a 1 planet jump is 24 hours, if that were true it would require lvl 11 energy with no other modifiers.

Wheeee · March 2004

Man, the price of PP's is going way up. Hopefully the people at the top will soon start to sell them instead of buying them; and holy moly SU's are only worth 366 A$, that's quite a bargain. I might start investing in them like in the stock market <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' />

NScombat · March 2004

I'm confused. How else can you get A$ apart from selling SU's. I can't see an option to sell PP's only but them with A$.

Trade agreement aren't an option unless you have A$10,000

>confused<

Is there another forum somewhere where the TSA people hang out?

ZiGGY · March 2004

when you have a combined total of 150 idle pps or more you are given the option to sell them

NScombat · March 2004

Hmm, I have at the moment 343 PP's in total; split 284,41,21. I'm on the trade screen, I can't see an option to sell PP's for A$. Is there a level limit for selling PP's for cash?

EDIT>< Ok I see what you do, click on spend all points. voila I have 360 A$ must remember that I brought em at A$1.02/PP

Wheeee · March 2004

read the FAQ and glossary

then scan through the two or three AW threads there are, paying attention to the parts where people like you go "hey what do i do" <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' />

--------

as for + %production, say you are getting 100PP an hour

you will then get 124 pp an hour, with +24%

Edit: typo on the number

Wheeee · March 2004

hm. So i'm expanding out from my system now; sent the guy one over from my system a message offering an alliance. we'll see how that goes. The system one north of mine apparently has a lot of infighting; i'll see if i can pick up the leavings after they get done killing each other.

Har_Har_the_Pirate · March 2004

ive just about got the guy wipped in my system, nuke the place is in there with me and doin fine, and the afk guy is all but gone (yay 5 planets in 5 hours)

Wheeee · March 2004

so i have the choice of either getting 5 SU's or buying an astrolabe. Which should I take? I understand the SU's will probably have a more immediate benefit; however, i really really want that astrolabe, and it would take me 3 days before i could order all 5 of those SU's.

Transmission · March 2004

SUs will be better in the long term, since they are at the lowest point they will be this round, so you are guarenteed profit. And how can it take you more than 1 day to buy SUs?

Wheeee · March 2004

cause i can only hold 2 atm, so i have to get them, spend them, then buy more

Transmission · March 2004

Oh, in the case, just buy 2, and hold on to them. Then wait a day or two and buy an artifact. Or the other way around, whichever you prefer. Buying and selling SUs is more hassel than it's worth, and profits are slim.

Wheeee · March 2004

oh...oops...i already spent my 2 SU's on research, guess i'll get another two. I don't think i'll try to play the SU market - i don't think it's worth it. I'm happy with how it turned out anyway; i spent 750 on 2 SU's and got back around 400. Just gotta wait an hour for that fourth planet now...argh, culture 5 will take forever. On another note, I'm now allied with this "TitanBlade" fellow, who claims to be part of a fairly large alliance...anyone know him and want to comment on whether he's trustworthy?

Salaman · March 2004

What's this doing on the 3rd page <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' />

Is anyone going to start a TSA alliance thread in the AW official diplomacy board? Most of the other serious alliances have one...*remembers the "what is TSA?" thread that arose last round*

NScombat · March 2004

Culture 5 in 4hrs. I'm feeling in a bit of a rut at the moment.

Have lvl 8 social and have been pushing energy > trying for a quick planet hop time.

I have bio 4 but can only see one other system, have befriended two people in the next system, they wanted to launch an attack against the third. I tried to talk him into making a co-ordinated attack with me but was told no, its ok I can handle it. This person had just sent 40ships against my allies main planet and he could raise his SB to lvl 10.

The allie launches his 40 ships against a similar lvl7 SB - The fool I cry, if you can raise your SB in time, don't you think he can do the same - especially as he has been away for 20hrs. Lets co-ordinate and hit him simultaneously, my attack isn't ready yet, just wait a little.

Now the enemywill have SU's to spend on ships or SB....

- where do I go from here? I have fools throwing insignificant fleets around bumping each others position and just feel I have nowhere to go.

advice please anyone.

Edit, they enemy raise SB to 10, got hit down to lvl 9, it is now rasied back to lvl 10. grrrr

Wheeee · March 2004

i laugh at your "allies". tell them to attack me so i can get a free 120 xp, please, i want to be level 7 too <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' />

slashburn · March 2004

I'm going nicely at the moment. My Philippino allies have got themselves sorted. The system above me has three of them in it. All 4 planets each > very well built up, they are attacking their right hand system. My system buddy and I have killed off our 2 system people.
We are attacking the system to our right.

I wonder how they all managed to get grouped together so tightly. 4 people in neighbouring systems is very lucky.

Notice the price of SU's is getting better. I brought 2 when they were rock bottom.

slashburn

Salaman · March 2004

Just took my 5th planet from an unknown. No artifact but the person who was there before was kind enough to have gotten the level 12 startup lab <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /> .

Wheeee · March 2004

Things are going slowly right now...hopefully tonight i will have enough A$ to buy that astrolabe. exchanging destroyers with my neighbor one system over; we exchanged 9 but mine got there first, and somehow i managed to kill off his starbase (i think he probably took a race penalty to attack). i wonder if i should backstab him....but no, i already pulled that destroyer out of orbit.

*edit* he definitely took some penalty to defense; i managed to take out 20% of his level 6 starbase with 3 destroyers.

CplDavis · March 2004

Hi guys Im not really doing that whole NS alliance this round so Im free to do whatever <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' />

Ill Have 5 planets by tomarrow. Im in a system with an old TSA player from the last beta.

We are at war with 2 french guys who attacked us first. We have alliances with 5 people in 3 other systems. So we are in good shape.

I have a fleet of about 100 destroyers.

Har_Har_the_Pirate · March 2004

143 destroyers
level 6 culture
5 planets, getting 6th in 24 hours, than 7th as soon as i get a high high nuff culture, which i will get in 70 hours,

Wheeee · March 2004

ZiGGY · March 2004
