#11 has it in for us alright, I was wondering today if its worth disbanding the clan to stop the unlimited attacks? (at least while some of you recover).

#48 & #54 - do you need anything? units or money?

Got this in game message:

At Mon, 19 May 2003 22:42:22 -0500, a messenger from Clan Deadcactus (#15) brought this to you...
Does Warrior have any open slots for a new member? I would like to join if you guys do. Hope to hear from you soon.


Let me know what you think?


I replied with:

Im not sure mate, without sounding eliteist our clan is formed from members of a gaming forum. I will discuss it with the other clan members. Not sure that Warrior would be a good place for you to be at the moment we are getting battered every day. By the way our attacks on you are nothing personal, its just the way the game is (dog eat dog) - sorry. I will let you know when ive heard from the other guys. Wish you luck.

********************

we need to take his LAND, storming is having a small effect given the amount of grain he's generating. We need to reduce the land so he has to attack to get the land back. It will be slow but more effective than the max 24 storms a day we could do. 10 land attacks should knock 10000+ from him.

Don't worry, that's whut happened to my first nation since the reset (Park-n-Flush Trailer Park) too. The server went down, I had to go somewhere for a bit, came back, dead Empire. (See the some mofo killed me while I was out post. ) Anyways, that's the game--just start a new Empire after you've deleted your old.

Well, I'm gonna try and hold on as long as I can.

If anyone online right now has money to spare, please send it to me!

There is a protective shield on my empire for the next 12 hours, so that would lessen the effects of any embezzelment attempts.

68 now has no military--I'll leave the killing up to someone else of you (Jonny?). And, Jonny, I sent you $1bil.

68 got back online, he'll probably buy something back up.

Also Jonny once you've made an attack you are no longer in protection, throwing caution to the wind and hurting the enemy so much that they can only hurt you a little in the counter attack is the way to win this game.

I WANT to support you. Get MSN Messenger, to do this all you need is Hotmail account.

Please read:

I'm now back at the no money problem, my $8000000 per turn defecit is really hurting.


As ive sent you so many units your having negative cash flow problems, the money I sent was to support this for a few turns whilst you sold those excess units.

There are 2 basic concepts:

Defence At the end of your turns buy the best defence you can, spending two thirds of your cash. The remainder is to support negative cashflow if youve lost land the next time you log in.

Attack / Cash Harvest When you log in its usually necessary to sell a bulk of your defence on the public//black market to even out your cashflow. You then are free to attack those players who will present the best land grab opportunities i.e. large land/small networth. When attacking keep your health above 70% (40%tax = 85% max health) make 3 attacks, then spend turns building on the land you capture, then 16 turns as cash turns. Repeat as necessary using up to 200 turns max. If you want to maximise your attack potential buy a specific attacking unit type and concentrate on using that.

There are loads and loads more tips and advice Laz, MrMitchel or I can give you. We can talk you through many more advanced game concepts.

Stick with it mate........

Im sending you $1bil to sort your cashflow out. Follow the advice above, and most of all - try and get yourself a hotmail account and MSN Messenger (ive sent you an in game message with all our ID's)

I sent you 3mill juggs #20, guess they weren't enough to hold him since they have a dump defense but atleast you've got plenty of good attacking units to use now, or to sell if you need a few hundred mill cash.
