Go to Research, it's under Money Production.

However, it helps to have at least 50 labs first, so that you can research at least 2 sciences per turn.

(I can't believe I'm giving advice to a member of another clan ;))
Thanks good sir.

That's because everyone in Sweden is trying to log in at the same time.

Just keep refreshing the login page until the count drops below 1000, then try and log in. You can usually get on that way. But you need to refresh the login page every 30 seconds or so...

Or else get online early in the morning (your time, around 6 AM) or after 12 midnight.

Or just keep submitting. The number of players playing updates every few minutes, so while it may say something like 1077, it actually has less people playing and will allow you to logon.

I made an Autologin script, but it's still under development... Strictly speaking, its working, but you'll have to click some button immediately, or it will keep submitting the information, and you won't be able to play.

Maybe Pu-235 could help me? I think I recall hearing him saying he was trying to develop one... I know how to eliminate the part about having to stop the script once you're logged in, but for some odd reason, it's not working...

--I would like a volunteer from Black Mesa to be my test rat. The experiment is this:
1. Share info. on each other's military, buildings, research, etc.
2. Attack the test rat or have the test rat attack me.
3. Determine how battles are resolved.
4. Share all info. with test rat.

That's kind of unnecessary. Basically, Nukezone works on a damage point system; the person with the most units usually wins, unless the defender has a lot of defense buildings.

Spies can tell you most of what you need to know about an enemy's unit concentrations, but you need the Aurora to tell what kind of buildings they have. And they still haven't put the code for that in yet...

Anyway, if you win a battle, you get a certain amount of money (determined by the defender's security level and amount of cash unspent) and some land, usually >100 square meters. You are also told what your losses, as well as the defender's losses. If you lose, you are only told how much damage you did, but your losses are always higher than the enemy's if you lose.

SDN, please read clan message... Please halt attacks once they take off their sexist clan info. However, until they do so, you're free to attack :twisted:

Wow, it's been a loooong time since I played this, I still remember comign down sick at the top of the clan, two days later I came back and my nation was destroyed. :cry:

Well....

Post by Marcao »

I am a member of the SD.net clan and I am sorry to say I have no idea who it was that killed you. :oops:

However, I can give you a brief synopsis of the legion. We have 15 players with an average networth of 700K or so per player. We have five provinces above 1 million networth with the rest coming in somewhere between 900K to 112K. We have only 1,151 clan points sadly, but we have been unlucky with declaring wars. Generally, we declare war against Clan X and Clan Z which happens to be bigger than us develops and interest. In the current war against the luskan crew, we have dished out a lot more than we have taken. Sadly, our adversaries got jumped by another clan and they had the lack of foresight to declare back. They are currently getting their asses handed to them. We are still at war with them, waiting for them to drop a sexist (no women) slogan thingie on their Clan declaration area.

that is all that comes to mind right now.

--The information you just gave me is pretty much useless. It isn't a straight points system since I can attack and take no losses despite the enemy having significant defenses. The opposite it true. In addition, attack damage is not a 1:1 function of the attack value for the units. It is very unclear what the breakeven point is for two equally matched opponents. A serious study needs to be done to figure this out. We can then optimize our strategy to account for battle resolution system. It is this sort of analysis that wins wars and make you the best player.

Hmm... sorry about that. I forgot to mention that the defense buildings must apply to a certain kind of unit, and there are distinct boundaries between unit types. My remarks about damage points still apply, however, just not in the way you apparently interpreted them.

I was basically just paraphrasing the stuff from the unofficial NukeZone manual.

My prov name is Imladris.
The manual should be able to tell you everything you need to know.

You need to get cheaper infantry as a buffer. I'd suggest maybe a couple hundred flamethrowers, just never attack with them.

Not well tested- also asks for permission to read the iframe w/ nukezone inside it. Say yes.

Numbers are times. Adjust as necessary. Going to add randomizer so people do not get suspicious.
