Shall I spend 11K on the most expensive weapon for defense or offense?

Offense. The Arbiter needs crusaders.

Oh, and PSICOLIX is a bit beyond anyone in our Alliance, or those of our allies, for that matter. I recommend boosting your security rating to reduce excess naq and focusing on funding through some farming of your own.

For 11 mil, the super weapon rules. They're very, very potent, but the real cost is trained workers to man them.

Though, that didn't stop me from loving my hiveship. I've got 450k strike now thanks to it.

2.7K units/day- no problem w/ the units

Although the stats increase didn't go up as much as I expected it to... kinda disappointing for the monetary cost-

Stealing 3 mil back from someone who hit me was pretty sweet though

Make sure that the top two classes of weapons are ALWAYS crewed with super-soldiers. It makes them so much more effective...

He didn't. I sabbed the unholy fuck out of him beause I was gonna raid him. You just beat me to it because I was waiting for turns.

I can't seem to sabotoge anyone- always get

hmmm... not so much of a trail of disaster at all... your troops report the enemy had no weapons, hoping that either they tell the truth, or at least that nobody finds out otherwise...

, and this was against someone w/ only 200 spies.

Beautiful

As with all battles, this one has been recorded for the official history of your realm. You, of course, are the first to know the results as they are reported directly to you first. This is the official report of the battle:

The army of Lowkey stormed the realm of Holdfast!

Lowkey sent:
13 Prior and 317 Preacher of the Faith

Careful and thourough observation records that the troops were armed as follows:

13 Prior have Fire Creation
7 Preacher of the Faith have Fire Creation
310 Preacher of the Faith have Heat Generation

Opposite this, stood the forces of Holdfast

Holdfast resisted the aggressors with:
0 Doci and 12 Defender of the Faith
Careful and thourough observation records that the army carried the following arsenal:

4 Defender of the Faith have Pyres of the Ori
8 Defender of the Faith came unarmed!

In a fury, the two opposing forces clash!

The forces of Lowkey rush in full force, and inflict 12,000 damage on Holdfast's forces!
It was confirmed that 0 of Holdfast's forces fell at the hands of Lowkey's assult.

The forces of Holdfast fought back with all they could, and managed to inflict 9,208 damage on Lowkey's forces!
They managed to eradicate 30 of Lowkey's troops.

Putting down the chronicled battle report, you cross reference and call for the corrosponding military armory reports to see the state of your weapons after such a battle...

Your Fire Creation went from strength 120 to 112 (now 112/120 and 7 percent damaged)
Your Heat Generation went from strength 9 to 8 (now 8/10 and 20 percent damaged)

The forces of Lowkey disillusioned those of Holdfast
The forces of Holdfast flee from the battlefield! One could see glory on the face of the victors, and spite on the defeated!

Considering what was available at the time in the realm of Holdfast, it is recorded that
a total of 3,215,632 Naquahdriah was taken from the realm of Holdfast

Many wonder if Holdfast will consider retaliation, but - when force meets force - there will have to be some changes in the preparedness of Holdfast before such a feat should wisely be considered!

Goes to show you how useless low level weapons are. I only have 47 offense warriors (all priors) with 4 staff of the ori and a few lower level weapons. 6 are unarmed and I still have triple your offense power. I'm concentrating on defense and covert right now.

I also haven't touched my offense in over a week. Everything I have goes into increasing unit production, and maintaining a semi decent defense.

Oh it's not your offensive power I was dissing, it was the weakass 1000 naq weapons.

Who wants to be my commander? I don't play this this game right now, so you can make the tax rate as high as you want.

Ok, set your tax to the max, happy earnings!

Pu-239 · Post by **Pu-239** » 2006-02-18 03:43pm

I keep getting farmed repeatedly- may I have an emergency infusion of cash to upgrade defenses? I'm an even bigger farming target now thanks to the offensive weapons upgrade.

Again, I'd like to, but it would require me giving you the entire clan stash (hopefully, that glitch will be resolved soon). However, if you can wait a day or so, I'll have enough to buy a Unified Allaince strike, and I can give you the left-overs, several million.

Soontir C'boath · Post by **Soontir C'boath** » 2006-02-18 03:52pm

We should probably set a good time for the commander's vault to be redistributed not just to Pu-239 but to everyone. Ire has 23 million in there.

Another way is for me to become your officer and tax me at 25% if you like. The only requirement I have is that the cash is to be used on the 500k weapons as best as you possible can get. In the end, those come off as a better deal.

You should get at least 40k per turn if you tax me at 15%.

The only thing is that I'd missed out on getting any cash I put into Ire's commander's vault.

Oops. Sorry about that . . .

At least you found better target. His naquahdriah did go to a good cause, though. Namely, my new Planetary Sphere of AntiNature!

I just bought a Unified Strike with most of the naq in there, but I'll distribute the stash when it gets back up to 25 or so million.

In other news, plans for war are proceeding. The assault is tentatively planned for Thursday, and I am also extending entreaties to our two other Allied groups on the subject. Right now, the plan is to sab and then assault the top half dozen players in their group, while I add my Unified and Alliance strikes to the mix. Then the less powerful among us will attack their lower troops, finished off by whoever has enough attack turns.

I need a few 200 or lower members to spearhead the assault, and anyone who has Commander strikes. So, who will take up the banner of our cause?

Necromancer of Rath · Post by **Necromancer of Rath** » 2006-02-18 08:22pm

I'm back under 200, I might be able to do something to help. At the moment it would be largely spy related, but I can revise that closer to Thursday. No commander strikes for me, though it wouldn't do much when my officer just now seems to have become active.

Pu-239 · Post by **Pu-239** » 2006-02-19 04:51am

Shopping spree of weapons and tech upgrades- now up to 126.

The superweapons aren't cost effective relative to their equivalent in supersoldiers+500K weapons.

1/4 mil per turn now >D

What kind of ratio do you need to successfully sabotage? I keep getting no weapons destroyed (and losing ~100 spies/500K to pay for them)

Ender · Post by **Ender** » 2006-02-19 01:54pm

I apparently picked up an officer. I have no idea who this guy is, so I sent him the following.

er, hello.

You know, usually, its customary to make mention of the fact that you want to be someone's officer. Particularily seeing as how I don't know you from Adam. I mean, if you are just hanging on for the Naq and aren't telling somone, well that' just a bit rude.

Anywho, gonna set the tax rate at 10%. If you are part of SDN, feel free to join the guild. Otherwise, whatever. Either way I'll ask them to leave you alone.

Name is Gretesh Jeap

Soontir C'boath · Post by **Soontir C'boath** » 2006-02-19 03:01pm

Check his battle logs and make sure he doesn't incite anything. I had an officer too but I immediately kicked him out just in case he made any stupid actions and wanted me to cover him or get his enemies to attack me.

At this point, those tech upgrades are quite useful.
I've also noticed lots of people have excellent covert ability but no actual defense, so I do probing attacks.

Noble Ire · Post by **Noble Ire** » 2006-02-19 08:50pm

Well, Pu-239, I sent you a sizeable defense subsidy. Apparently, they still haven't fixed that glitch.

In other news, I still need volunteers for the coming battle. You will be... compensated for your efforts, although I don't think that should be necessary.
