SD.Net Army

Another thing, if they won why did they declare peace back, if their winning wouldn't they press the advantage, and knock all people in their attack range down below their attack range.

They just declared war back after Boba and Deathsreich started throwing potshots. Shall I declare war back?

I say not. Give it a day or two.

If it means a mutual war, then no. I'm still reeling from the last one. I might be able to defend myself, however. At worst, I could just go into vacation mode.

Anyway, I'd be glad to fight in the current war, but it seems that all of the provinces are out of my net worth range.

SDnet just got declared on. I need to hear if you guys are ready or not.

BM has been declared war.

Oh, whoop de doo. And I can't log on.

EDIT: Never mind, somehow I did log on.

--How would I go about joining this army of yours? I just created an acount "Novus" (the masculine version of Nova...). In addition, is it possible to log in without being a gold user?

What you do, is message the CL in Black Mesa (Lambda Complex #118736), and he'll send you the info needed to join BMRF.

You'll be able to log in whenever the user count drops below 900 during peak times, or under 1000 at non-peak. Peak time is in the morning.

--Alliances are banned between clans so does that affect whether I join SDNet or Black Mesa? Which one has the most active members?

Black Mesa is more cohesive as a whole.

--Well I think I'll give the leaders of both clans the opporotunities to present their cases to me.
--At any rate now that I'm online what should I do. In particular, what bonus should I pick? Is there a manual somewhere?

Manual

You should probably join a clan first. I'd recommend Black Mesa. Oh, as a note, the CL for SD.net isn't playing this round... Think about that for a while...

As for what bonus, Money is good, and so is one of the construction bonuses, depending on how you're going to be doing your build.

Extra turns never hurt either... but money is probably the best bet.

Nova, what's your province name? Your login name makes no difference what so ever...

--I have sent messages to both clan leaders and I am reading the manaul. SDNet is bigger, but its leader seems to be patheticly weak. Is there anything I should do during the 1 day I have alotted for them to get back to me?

The leader for SDNet isn't playing this round... you will never get a response back from him.

Build, build, and build some more. Just get your infrastructure up and running before you think about killing people; you've got 48 hours before nuke protection is over, so you can worry about a military then.

Get at least 50 research labs (100 if you can afford them) and use a bunch of turns to research money production.

--Assumming SDNet doesn't get back to me, what type of province would Black Mesa need (i.e., what should the focus of my province be)? I will focus on science/infrastructure related things by default.

Crayz9000 · Post by **Crayz9000** » 2003-04-22 04:48pm

Well, anyone should focus on science and infrastructure. You simply can't survive without them.

Anyway, if you join Black Mesa, check the clan forum (there's a Round 7 Specialization thread there) and choose a role to be. I'm not going to repost them here for obvious reasons.

Could probably use another infantry guy.

--Okay, I was able to buy 50 labs and sufficient power plants to support them. Unfortunately, I will have to wait 5 hrs. before I can buy the other 50 labs and power plants for them since I don't have the necessary cash. I will wait until I have 100 labs to use my turns.
-Does anyone know how conflict resolution occurs?

Don't worry, you'll have plenty of time to make the research labs. Might want to do some research right now though.

-Does anyone know how conflict resolution occurs?

Only the programmers. You'll usually manage to succeed in your attacks. Just remember, you want to specialize, so that you'll be more likely to lose less of your force per attack.

--While this certainly sounds agressive I nevertheless need to know why SDNet is better than Black Mesa when they have offered me the most help so far and your leader is both missing in action and nearly anihilated (no offense intended).
