DeMolay, don't attack anyone with a military score of 0. EVen if we're at war, we merely demaded that they move away, and if they build up military then we'll strike. If they don't build an army then they'll be safe for sometime, but thats it.
OK I'll take my lead from you. I see MMIMGrup MS is back over the 100 mark I'll go beat up on him
Now I have a decision on Gamma, I'm ready for colony #6, I have 2 Marble and one of each so which is better a 2nd wine colony or a 2nd Sulfur or Glass? Thought from those who have been before would be appreciated.

Hot Damn! I should read the end of the forum before going back to where I left off. That explains your reply to my message. I'd be making nice with "Hammurabi"
who is the diplomat of LAW and get a non-aggression treaty going with them asap. I'm certain the "beating us into submission until we join them" attitude is not a shared alliance value.
7000k and 3000k?
Thats 7.000.000 (7 million) and 3.000.000 (3 million).
Just wanted to say...

Well, to be hones Hnk, the conversation didn't quite end there. He ended up responding to me saying, "i noticed, but u guys wrote that awhile ago, noticed u have not gotten much bigger, what u might call stalling out, thought u might like a boost, thank you for writing
bigal"
At this point I should not have said anything. But being the rambunctious little scamp that I am, I replied, "Our growth is pretty good actually. And we're more concerned about keeping our current members active and happy instead of just climbing the ladder. Some of you really huge alliances will just accept anybody as long as it means more points for your alliance."
To which he replied, "your right, we wont accept you now, u just pissed me off, i will be over to say hi, soon, count on it."
To which I replied, "Interesting. I think you've shown your true colors all along. I was right never to even consider your offer."
And so that's that. Except for it's not. As I write this, the guy is on his way to attack Qappa Planitia with 45 battleships for a blockade, and 40 land units with 85 tradeships. When I first noticed his guys on their way, I began taking my usual measure of sending all my resources out, buying an expensive building upgrade, donating wood to the island, and changing my wine rations to lower my amount. But halfway through this process I suddenly stopped and thought to myself, "Wait a minute. He's sending 40 units? Seriously?" I knew none of my own battleships could get there in time to defeat his, but what I could easily do was send my own land troops from other islands to help defend my city. I've already got 10 gunsman at Qappa. What else am I sending you ask? Oh, not much. Just about 140 Gunsman, 50 Bombardier, 35 Mortars, 10 Doctors and 10 Cooks. What do you guys think? Will this be enough against whatever 40 units he's sending against my city?
I've decided to keep my remaining Battleships at Qappa though. I was originally thinking of sending them out so I wouldn't have to take any losses, but this guy's military score is huge and I need to take some of the fight out of him while I have the defensive advantage.
Another thing strange about this player is I can't tell if he's any kind of ranking member within the LAW alliance. Based on his maturity level and typing skills, it's hard to believe he's anything but a regular member. And I know he's not their diplomat cause I tried writing a message to LAW just to see who would receive it and it wasn't him.
Anyway, the battle will be happening soon enough. I'll give you a screenshot of the outcome.
that is a retarded reason to attack someone, u hurt his trany pride. he is only sending 40 land units to calculate ur military score and what units u have i think. c what u got, and then he wiill prob send a bigger and stronger wave, is he far away from u? or close by?
thx for sending me stuff btw, now i have 220k sulfur lol
So what makes sense, to have all your military in one place or spread out between your coloniies, or to have a standing force in each with the bulk in oner?
Holy crap! That's a ton of resources! What server was it?
this was on GAMMA!!! lol.
then i see another fleet of ships. so i dumped all my building resources into the wine area. and send the rest of my wine to my capital.
i wake up today to fine the fleet of sihps was going for my capital. so my ships got there and then it was blockaded. and they just turned around. lol.
also freaking busta kappa.attacked my capital with 100 swordsmen. i had 86. i won.....dumb ass!!!
so yeah. i checked out the guy who got all those resources. and they said stuff about pillaging on there alliance page. and i can understand. but if more then one perosn comes to attack me from there. then it an alliance thing. lol. so whatever.
i had 34 flamethrower ships at my sulfer colony. now diversing them to all my colonies.

wtf did he attack u, hes got a shitload of points he should be attacking stronger ppl imo
Hehe, so something interesting happened today on Eta. I was attacked something like 10 times in a row since the last time I logged on and checked (yesterday), and I noticed I won a battle! The last invasion, the guy only sent two slingers, and my wall killed them both! MWAHAHAHA!
oh no no no no no no no no no NO!!! if I was going to go to a forum with terrible posers of slang I wouldve but I choose this one. in hopes of anyone neding extra wood marble and sulfur (I hold the right to stop this at any time)

Yes, please all of the above, I've got lot's of glass to trade
What can you guys tell me about Doctors and Cooks. Are they worth the overhead and do they make a difference?
I would gladly trade anything for more of your glass.
I'm not entirely positive how doctors work since it's not like units have hit points or anything. But basically they increase the number of units that survive per round. But I don't know how many units a single doctor my save. They will work better on human units than machine ones too obviously.
I keep no more than 10 doctors total in all of my military. If I am about to go on a major offensive then I'll train some more.
Now cooks, they basically allow your troops to continue on for more rounds. You can lose a battle with superior numbers to your enemy if you still don't have any cooks. The more cooks you have, the longer the battle can be prolonged. Smaller battles will only take one round. But if you're sending lots of troops against several others, you better plan on a battle that will go several rounds.
I've had people attack me with huge numbers before but they actually went home early and I won the battle because I had more cooks than they did. My town wall didn't hurt either.
OK I'll take my lead from you. I see MMIMGrup MS is back over the 100 mark I'll go beat up on him

And Siaynoq, Rob is right, those 40 units aren't meant to beat you, they're their to gauge your land strength in Qappa.
and major LAWLZ at "trany pride" that made me laugh, seriously.
