I was poking around on the AW forums, and apparently this round is coming to a close. There are a few ppl with enough points to win the round, they just have to wait the week out.
Just a heads up to all of you, I guess your rank this round has some bearing on the next round. Maybe it affects your placement in the galaxy, or maybe something else, I don't know. But everyone on the AW forums say are going all out and attacking everyone in hopes of bumping up their levels a bit more, for whatever reason.
I think most of us here started somewhat late in this round, but we will all be even next round. Also i read that the dev team will be implementing a formal alliance system for beta 4. So I am anticipating some hardcore NS_ galaxy domination!
Good luck!
BTW I'm in the same system with boggle. Alpha ras al Asad al Shamali (-38/-17) let me know if you need any help!

If you hvae a look at rankings then you will see that the top person is only just under 300. And for those who haven't realised, the scoring happens logarithimically (if thats the right model) meaning that you grow really fast when t is small, but as t goes on, the rate of growth comes to a horizontal.
I would give this round at least another month. So keep at it NS'ers. It's a far cry from the fat lady singing. Ranking had no bearing of placement in beta 3.

They have been saying that formal alliances were going to be in beta 3, but will we see. I would recommend starting late. The competition is far less on the outer rim.

ns_nuketheplace just joined up. I already have a system and I'm about go out and start getting other planets oh yah im at -39/-1 Cheleb system I should be able to help anyone who needs it.
I just did a quick check, it appears you are player level 0. Money can only be transferred between players that have a player level of 1 or greater.
All you need is to succesfully win a battle and kill 2 destroyers = 6 experience points. Then Bob should be your uncle. And you bank account will be looking a lot phatter.
he has a total of 11 battleships 3 cruisers and 2 destroyers now on the way to that planet, I fear I cant sustain this sytem, I have sent colony ships out to 3 diffrent systems in the hope of preserving my existance.
Even if I spend all points to my home planet I wont have enough PPs to defend against that kind of fleet.

Respond with this message should you be attacked. If you are a new player to AstroWars, add this:

Im am sorry to say, but astrowars is not a ballanced game. It is not even enjoyable. Within weeks a far superior enemy will always apear on your doorstep. Heavilly armed and beyond defeating, it would be hopeless. Also, tied in with the fact that you cannot form real alliances with players compounds this fact to a far worse degree.
I resign, but i leave you what little hope i had of this game to you, to hope that you will kick those mother f***ers a**es!!!1
Cronodragon is thy enemy. His home is Denebola. x -37, y 40. Send battle ships to each of his planets. Greywolf, you have my worlds at your disposal once i leave.

You are now a enemy of the NS clan. By launching a attack at one of our clan members or team mates we warn you to stop while you are still alive to hear it. Cease the action or be dealt with a heavy right hand, and a vicious left hook.
This is your only warning.

Respond with this message should you be attacked. If you are a new player to AstroWars, add this:

You have attacked one of our fledgeling members or a fledgling ally. This will not be tolerated. Your only warning is now void. Expect to see our warships inside your solar system's boarders from many galaxies within weeks.

Im am sorry to say, but astrowars is not a ballanced game. It is not even enjoyable. Within weeks a far superior enemy will always apear on your doorstep. Heavilly armed and beyond defeating, it would be hopeless. Also, tied in with the fact that you cannot form real alliances with players compounds this fact to a far worse degree.
I resign, but i leave you what little hope i had of this game to you, to hope that you will kick those mother f***ers a**es!!!1
Cronodragon is thy enemy. His home is Denebola. x -37, y 40. Send battle ships to each of his planets. Greywolf, you have my worlds at your disposal once i leave.
Fight.
Do not win - Make them lose.
edit: also how long will a colony ship wait if it cant colonize a planet? is it forever or do they dissapear? <!--QuoteEnd--> </td></tr></table><span class='postcolor'> <!--QuoteEEnd-->
forever as far as i am concerned, once your culture level is high enough you hvae to send it to itself if that makes sense. And it should colonise after a couple of hours once it gets back
You wont be able to spend points at that planet when he arrives, if you spend all points, 40% of those planets points go to you, 40% goes to him, and 20% is wasteage.

can anybody help me with my situation? i mean, what am i supposed to do with 11 culture
i cant really get it that much higher easily
it sucks...
whats the purpose of astrowars? you can only fight within a certain area, and you can only get like 7 planets, and even that is difficult. any more than 7 planets and you are a serious contender - the equivalent of an empire.
however, theres got to be a better way this game can work
i intend to contribute a helluva lot to the AW game, in terms of ideas/suggestions. right now im working on a way for each person to get like 20 planets each and still be considered a medium level player <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
real empires, not just skirmishes.
it also ties in with alliances <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
Anyone know what the various artifacts do?
Doesn't seem to list them anywhere <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->
BTW, read the GLOSSARY

That why you pump galactic cybernets like no tomorrow. Culture is and always will be the limiting factor, but you can probably get culture up to +60/h easily.

Should I take that as that they boost the different factors by a certain percentage of their current value? o.O
