    Majin, use the Print Screen key (by scroll lock) to take a picture of whatever is currently displayed on your monitor. Then paste it into paint, crop, and host it.

    Also Majin, I would suggest finishing Physics, then boosting economy one level since the benefits are great, and then work on your energy since it is so low. Don't worry about having a large fleet if you're not under attack. I went from 2 BS to 20, really shocking my opponent.


    However, I have a question for es_quatro. If even 1 of planets is under siege, when I use the spend all points function on intersteller trade, does the sieger recieve 40% of my total points, or only points from that planet?

    Thanks

    How do you people see each other and send each other money?

    And how do I take over someone elses planet? Ther'es some AFKer who has level 2 starship thinger... that's it. Do I need to send destroyers and a transport, or just a transport? (And colony ship?)
  • Marine0IMarine0I Join Date: 2002-11-14 Member: 8639Members, Constellation
    Teflon, if that guy is afk (ie lvl2 starbase and 1 population) you will need a minimum of three destroyers and one transport to kill his starbase and take over his planet. You dont need colony ships for anything but uncolonised planets.

    Ahh okay, so the starbase acts as an orbital defense system... now I understand.

    Only the planet that is being sieged will be taxed. There for if you have 8 planets that all have 50 PP and 1 is being siege you will only receive 370 PP...... 20PP(40% of 50PP) will go the sieger of that 1 planet and 10PP (20% of 50PP) will be wasted.

    This is interesting point, Although I have told Marine01 that three should win. I have found an interesting topic on the AW forums that might suggest otherwise.

    ok someone help me, i sent a colony ship 15 destroyers 1 cruiser and 2 bships to another galaxy on a free panet, it said my fleet was victorious and i gained 0 ex pts but why isnt my colony ship colonizing on the planet?
  • TransmissionTransmission Join Date: 2003-03-12 Member: 14456Members
    I've discovered this too. When attack ships go to any planet, they "conquer" it for exps. However, if you send a colony ship with them it will not colonize, maybe because of the intense "battle." All you can do now is resend the colony ship and waste a few hours, and next time delay the colony ship by a few minutes.

    Hay I need some backup. I was just attacked by unnamed01. He just sent 92 Destroyers 5 Cruisers and 8 Battleships to two of my planets. My main fleet is very small at the moment only about 35 destroyers 4 cruisers and 5 battleships. As you can see I'm pretty screwed. I could use any help that you could give me. I'm ns_nuketheplace @ Cheleb (-39/-1). Unnamed01 is at Rucha (-39/-3). Any ships or astros you could send me would be put to good use.

    save up your money, and upgrade your starbase as much as possible

    if he has no transport ships in the fleet, do not split your own fleet, but send it to the first planet being attacked. when you have fought off the first fleet, send it to the second planet to be attacked. you get like 100% speed if you are sending to your own planets as well, so you may even beat him to BOTH planets!! <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    although, its a lot harder with limited funds. leave it overnight or something, then buy up and protect.

    Once you're making a battleship every 2 1/2 hours, battles become a whole lot bigger. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

    You can send stuff even when I cant use trade?
  • eedioteediot Join Date: 2003-02-24 Member: 13903Members
    You should be able to.

    You can only send at lvl 1, etc, but recieving should be at any level.

    Right now i'm trying to help my ally defend himself against a guy whos throwing wave after wave of huge fleets at him... Quite honestly I'm scared, I think my ally has almost given up, and this isn't his native system. If he gives up, I'm screwed. I don't want to have to restart <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Help... in my system, there's one guy whose really REALLY closely matched to me. We're both pathetically weak right now, but should I prepare to crush this guy with a 'preemptive defensive strike'? I just sent a colony ship to a planet and it'll be there on the 18th... I'm saving PPs for the new colony, but should I invest in a fleet instead?

    BTW: We also have an AFKer. Is it better to take empty planets or existing ones?

    nope, no way unless you get the planets first on list sieged and use spend all points

    hardly worth it =/ unless in a crisis

    just stop using 'spend all points' until youve spent the points from the weaker planets <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Hehe

    I am almost finished splitting the system with my mate... the problem is, theres a hardcore player in here who WONT GIVE UP!!! He is sending huge fleets to my ally's planets, and sieging him constantly. i am amassing a reasonable force to take out his lvl 13 starbase, and assuming he has a fair fleet there.

    i already have 20 battleships, 11 cruisers, 71 destroyers

    will this be enough?? :|

    if not, can anybody donate me 2000 PP, i will buy 4 destroyers for 520 PP each [using my funds as well, of course]

    thanks...

    what do i need to kill him?

    eediot,
    you mean 4 BS

    I have good new!
    I HAVE A PLAYER LEVEL!!!
    My plan to kill off all the AFKer's worked.
    But I also found that there is a player on the out reaches of my sector who is all over the place, hes in 4 systems already.
    I sent 2 BSs to one of the planets that had an AFK player, he beat me to it and sieged the planet before my 2 BS got there. When my 2 BSs (72 attack points + level 13 phys) arrived, they were destroyed and only did 5% DMG. He must have sieged that planet with a Fleet that makes you cry, to see coming! <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo--> The funny part is I tryed to trick him into putting ships there so my BS would destroy something and I would get a PL. I mailed him and warned him that my M8 was attacking (when it was really me).
    He mailed me back after the fight and was like "what did he send 1 destroyer?.. LOL" <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Also Good news.
    My native system just went GOLD STAR.
    We have become the most powerful system in the near sector!

    What PP you getting per hour in total?

    edit: I think i just condemmed 5 BS and 2500 PP to death =/ argh. the guy came online, with like 10 hours left to go on the trip. he has ample time to send a few BS over to his planet, upgrade defenses, and get a few SU and experience points off me. Bah.
