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.

You better hope he's on now or those millions will be for nothing.

Silence! The Arbiter can do no wrong!

I just hope he has a sizeable vault, with plenty of space.
Still, that is something to remember. I'll check next time.

Well, well, well, he just might. He has an army of 12k of which who knows are workers. All I know is with my 21k of workers I can hold 88 million. It should be proportional so it should all be in there.

I forgot the cash gets banked.

How does one do that?

Headquarter's page, scroll down to Officer Management and click the link. You'll then get a list of your officers which allows you to take action.

Yeah, it got banked. 10K of my army are indeed workers..

What shall I spend it on? Already spent half on tech upgrades and weapons, have 10K left.

Darth Yoshi · Post by **Darth Yoshi** » 2006-02-19 09:43pm

I see. Much obliged, Soontir.

BTW Arbiter, I seem to recall a debacle involving a certain human and a Halo...

Most excellent.... thank you Arbiter!

Battle Report

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 KanoneZiel stormed the realm of Indigogazer!

KanoneZiel sent:
40 WareWarrior and 0 Attack Dogs

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

1 Planetary Sphere of AntiNature reign down from the skies!
40 WareWarrior have Howl of Non Existence

Opposite this, stood the forces of Indigogazer

Indigogazer resisted the aggressors with:
17 WareGuardian and 3 Giants of Resistance
Careful and thourough observation records that the army carried the following arsenal:

17 WareGuardian have Field of Aging
2 Giants of Resistance have Cloak of the Camelion
1 Giants of Resistance came unarmed!

In a fury, the two opposing forces clash!

The forces of KanoneZiel rush in full force, and inflict 517,064 damage on Indigogazer's forces!
It was confirmed that 0 of Indigogazer's forces fell at the hands of KanoneZiel's assult.

The forces of Indigogazer fought back with all they could, and managed to inflict 227,783 damage on KanoneZiel's forces!
They managed to eradicate 0 of KanoneZiel'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 Planetary Sphere of AntiNature went from strength 126,612 to 125,888 (now 125888/126660 and 1 percent damaged)
Your Howl of Non Existence went from strength 2,098 to 1,911 (now 1911/2110 and 9 percent damaged)

The forces of KanoneZiel disintegrated those of Indigogazer
The forces of Indigogazer 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 Indigogazer, it is recorded that
a total of 5,073,937 Naquahdriah was taken from the realm of Indigogazer

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

Also, once one gets up to the triple digits, it becomes extremely worthwhile to upgrade attack/defense technology. Medical is worthless. as is endurance and whatever.

You have no idea what you're missing by not upgrading E&S. It's like upgrading all your stats at once.

Volunteers? Aren't all of us in on this little war by default? And what does the "Unified Strike" thing you bought entail exactly? Please, Arbiter, enlighten your more-than-slightly confused ally/servant/follower/whatever.

Oh. I upgraded once and saw no effect, so I didn't bother... wow, it's doing a lot...

When shall I stop upgrading my unit production? I'm at 23.4K/day, 1.82 %

I think the rule is you never should stop but you will temporarily at some points when you just have to use the money to put into things such as defenses instead.

Update:
Liver Population Growth 44,200 /day
Worker Daily Training Rate 1.87 % of population (5,694 Worker /day)
Income / Turn: 703,215 Naquahdriah

Bad event: I forgot to set my realm level to critical and so 20 million was taken from me and killed some of my units.

w00t, all of my accounts now have mothership class weapons.

Flawless Victory!

BTW Arbiter, I seem to recall a debacle involving a certain human and a Halo...

That was a past life. I am reborn.... Yes, a past life....

Well, technically, you all are at war with Crystalforce, and I expect everyone to contribute to the campaign, but I want some of the more powerful members among us to take a somewhat more active role ('m still looking, by the way). And I'm not entirely sure what Unified strike does, but I think it just combines the attack power of everyone in the Alliance and pours it on the target. Of course, it might also deplete attack turns; I'll have to check.

I'm in it to my eyeballs. I will be in.

Very good.

Ender · Post by **Ender** » 2006-02-20 03:36pm

I'm in a bit of a quandary. See, unlike a lot of you, I can't play at work/between classes. I usually go 12+ hours (closer to 18 usually) between logging on. I also have fairly good naq production (~250K/turn). This means that I build up an account to a good level swiftly, but I'm not around to spend it. Now on the regular server, that's not a problem, I'm just another blip. Plenty of other big targets to go after. But on Chaos, I stand out like crazy. in 13 hours I got hit twice, both for 3 mil plus. Both cost me over 60 defenders. And when I got back to the server, I had just under 3 mil again.

I can't seem to formulate a good strategy. Masive worker production goes for you guys because then you turn that naq straight into other things. But I need to strike some kind of balance between defense spending and expansion.

You need less weapons but more powerful. Try buying the 500k ones, I'll send you everything I've got in the commanders vault to use.

I know I'm not in the top 200 anymore, but I do have 1 mil + strike and my priors are itching for a new crusade with which to bring the joy of origin to millions of new converts.

Muahahaha it continues to grow and it's only been 12 hours.

Liver Population Growth 46,200 /day (up 2k)
Worker Daily Training Rate 2.00 % of population (6,538 Worker /day) (up ~800 workers/day)
Income / Turn: 800,640 Naquahdriah (up ~97k)

Starting tonight and until tomorrow, all my naquadriah will be spent on defenses. There are more people with at least one million in offensive action and I need to start training more defense forces.

Watch out for Destroyer(it's in leet), he has at least 3 million in defense.

npisd · Post by **npisd** » 2006-02-20 10:03pm

Yeah, his 8 mil or whatever its up to now was too tempting so I sent a scouting attack his way:

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 npisd stormed the realm of D3str0y3r!

npisd sent:
33 Prior and 0 Preacher of the Faith

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

3 PlanetShip of Faith reign down from the skies!
30 Prior have Staff of the Ori
3 Prior came unarmed!

It was confirmed that 0 of D3str0y3r's forces fell at the hands of npisd's assult.

The forces of D3str0y3r fought back with all they could, and managed to inflict 2,613,152 damage on npisd's forces!

The forces of D3str0y3r entropized those of npisd
The forces of npisd flee from the battlefield! One could see glory on the face of the victors, and spite on the defeated!

The forces of npisd could not secure a foothold in the realms of D3str0y3r!
The armies of npisd were forced out of the realm of D3str0y3r in a none to glorious fashion! The defending forces were simply too much for them....
There are lessons to be learned here - old cliches of your race abound... biting and chewing...eyes and stomach...enemies and friends... too little too late.. stitch in time...books and covers --- but... one would guess that those defeated who lived were simply thankful for escape at the time, and running to become better prepared for the next excursion. It is sure that D3str0y3r will be considering a return visit to npisd!

Anywho, I'm wondering--is turning in my staffs (my 500k weapon) for a superweapon worth it? Or should I trade up to the shiny planetships en masse?

SyntaxVorlon · Post by **SyntaxVorlon** » 2006-02-21 11:45am

More expensive weapons are more cost effective. They're also more expensive. It takes a days worth of successful attacks for me to make enough money to buy a mothership.
