Plundering newbs and inactives is fun

I used most of the gold to max my sciences...when that was nearly done, i used it on elites, i'm plundering maybe 2 or 3 mil gc/day now...i expect it to drop once i get bigger -> less inactives.
But then i think i'll use the learn attack to keep my sciences high.

What are the other letters between "SMURF" and "ELI" supposed to stand for, or are they random gibberish to make it twenty letters?

quote: We will be using this thread to post possible changes for the next Age of Utopia, set to start around September 7th. Please use the Bugs & Suggestions forum to post your suggested ideas for the next round. At this point, race changes look to include strengthening of orcs and weakening of faeries. Undeads and dwarves may also need slight improvements. Our main project is going to be looking at a possible redesign of the relations system yet again, to make it even more action-oriented rather than declaration oriented. One possible system includes: * Wars would occur when two kingdoms had attacked each other (successfully?) a cumulative number of times - with actions needed by both parties to enable war. * A "Hostile" declaration would provide offensive bonuses and accelerate the pace of potential war. However, War would no longer be limited to kingdoms one is hostile with. Kingdoms could declare 3 or 4 other kingdoms Hostile. * "Peace" declarations would probably still exist, but their exact function hasn't been determined yet. This is only a skeleton possibility of one proposal - we're open to other options and ideas in this area. The primary intent is to make wars a more natural progression of actual hostilities and avoid the "fake war" syndrome in the current system.

quote: Additional possible changes: * Attack gains would be have a relative kingdom size component. That is, attacking a large player in a large kingdom could net more than attacking a large player in a small kingdom. This would help protect larger players in smaller kingdoms. * Possible addition of "Good" and "Evil" ratings. Different races would start with different ratings, but then each player would develop ratings based on their actions. There would then be various bonuses for interactions between certain styles of players (Good attacking Evil, etc). This is an area that needs to be far more developed (obviously) and may be something we look at for future rounds.

ABUSE!!!
Have few (4 or 5) provinces in your kingdom grow to huge sizes, and all the others stay at 250 acres...or even smaller

Attack bonusses perhaps for attacking an opposing alignment.

First thing first :

http://games.swirve.com/utopia/help/

That's the guide, read it.

---

The age is about to end very soon, so whatever you do now is not very important. Use the time to experiment a bit with whatever you want.

Some general advices :
1) www.utopiatemple.com - Download angel and learn to use it, the vast majority of players use it and cant do without it.
2) Post and read the kingdom forums. Your kingdom mates are your only allies. Throught the age, they will be the ones who will fight with you, aid you, etc.
I guess you're on WoL... Most WoL kingdoms pretty much suck, but every one of them has a couple of good players. Find them, and get to know them. They will be your primary source for advices.
3) Read the public Utopia forums.
http://boards.swirve.com/board.cgi?boardset=utopia
They contain the information needed to move up from an ok-player level to a pretty-good-player level.
I'd reccomend you to read this thread first :
