    Burncycle we cant lend you money until you have gained at least one player level - have you done that? If the answer is yes then I'll send you what I can.

    BENEFITS of SIEGING.....

    I recently have had a discussion with Marine01, about the pros and cons of war. For the most part of I have recommended peace everytime, conceding that the spoils of war was good, however if you lost the cost would not be worth it.

    However recently I have taken two systems, where I am sieging every active player. I must admit that it takes very careful planning and I watched my opponents login times very very consistently over a few days. As Marine01 has said, there is nothing better than spoiling opponents breakfasts. I managed to take over but 6 of his 11 planets by the next time he had logged on and he spent all points to me and I received $14,000. He is now daily spending points, which is turning about to be $2,000 from the one player this time of the day everyday. Now I have plenty of 'property' to sell other players and very strong bargaining material.

    So war is great, is good when it is done right. Peace can't last forever, people run out of territory. I am building up my fleet to take over a third system. Poor guy.... oh well, he will learn. do it right, and let these noobs become sieging PP farms for you. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    - BTW : I must say, do NOT get destroyers for the muscle of your fleet, only get them so you can leave one behind each planet that is not yours to launch from. People think twice about launching to a planet that is red. And it gives you information about enemy fleet movements. And it pisses (can i say that?) people off who are getting sieged with a destroyer at each planet <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    OK. Ur aliies now, nice and safe.
    Eediot if you need them i can get battleships to you in less than 1 day. Let me know.
  • Smoke_NovaSmoke_Nova Join Date: 2002-11-15 Member: 8697Members
    hehe...I've got 3 Battleships right now. I've got a pissant small fleet,

    7 Destroyers
    3 Battleships
    3 Colony Ships
    2 Transports
    0 Cruisers.

    I'm gonna sell off my last two SU and use them to buy even more PP to pump up "Hiigara" (My so-called homeworld, aka Beta Ancha 1) or use them to buy more Transports/Colony ships.

    attack a planet/someone. the experience will boost up your levels.
  • Smoke_NovaSmoke_Nova Join Date: 2002-11-15 Member: 8697Members
    build 3 destroyers, go attack someone with a lvl 2 Starbase. One player level right there, assuming it's an AFKer.

    I wouldn't remember, I killed the only true AFK'er in my system with 3 destroyers. and 2 transports to take his system.
  • BurncycleBurncycle Join Date: 2002-11-24 Member: 9759Members, NS1 Playtester
    Alrighty

    I've got a few destroyers, I think even a level 2 starbase would own me <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

    The good part is I have 4 planets, and the other 3 players each only have one. If I do get attacked, it'll buy me some time
  • Smoke_NovaSmoke_Nova Join Date: 2002-11-15 Member: 8697Members
    A lvl 2 Starbase only has 5 defense
    a single destroyer has 2 offense.
    3 destroyer > lvl 2 starbase.

    Finally, considering MArine01, had 6 planets when I was just restarting....

    I am finally beating him in rankings

    Avenell - #288
    Offensive - #270

    w00t.

    Keep in my mind, that I am several player levels in front of him though, so if he goes to war, it should see him overtake me swiftly.

    I owe the leap much to this........

    13:55:25 - Nov 04 Congratulations! Your attacking fleet was victorious at Alpha Marfic 4. You lost about 65% and gained 3456 experience points from (<a href='http://www.astrowars.com/0/Player/Profile.php/?id=15133' target='_blank'>profile</a>)
    D:101/C:0/B:54 vs D:263/C:17/B:36/S:8

    I had no idea there was a fleet there that big, jsut thought I was killing a SB. Oh well....suckt it RAMROD!!!

    Well many of you know about my narrow escape from doom last week. When this insanely larger guy decided to invade my tiny newbie planet. Then you all knew how just 4 min before he came and wiped me out I sent out some colony ships to other systems and one to another planet in my origional system.


    Well as it turns out that planet in my origional planet is now going to be invaded as well by his huge fleet.

    However little does he know that I have since made several small victories against some other people. So I have some SP to throw around. Just before his fleet gets to my planet. Im going to dump a whole crap load of PP (like over a 1,000 into my starbases, bringing it up to level 16 and I have some cruisers) His giant fleet has just gone strait into my trap!

    MUAHAHHAHAHAHA

    Based off al the charts from the AstroWars FAQ stratedgy charts Its gonna work too.

    Revenge is sweet. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    LOL
    Someone in a system above me (that I cant see) just sent 3 Crusiers to a planet I have sieged, this planet just happens to have a fleet of over 3000 Attack points in orbit.
    LOL

    Hey I got a Supply Unit last night. I sold it at 9:30 EST. Its now 21:26EST (12 hours) and I still havnt gotten any A$ for it.

    How long does it take to get your money? And when I do get it and I buy some PP with it, do I have to wait to get the PPs as well or can instantly get stuff when u purchase it?
