    I've told people time and time again.

    Posting "I need X amount of $A stat" is stupid.

    What people need is first of all
    <u>Why you need it</u> - incoming fleet - need it to get artifact before update
    <u>If its a fleet</u> you need to say what odds you are up against. How much you will need.
    <b>NOT</b> just "I am under attack - send me Astros"
    Ultimately though, if you are alone and <b>NOT</b> near TSA alliance members you need to make friends and work in co-operation with them.
    I would only ever send money to an alliance member to upgrade a starbase at spend all points planets. Other than that I would try to help them out with my fleet. Sending money for a fleet is a <u>WASTE</u> because you lose 25% of the PP when you do. Give alot information if people can't derive a lot from themselves, saying which planets they are attacking, layout of the system.
    If you have failed to make enough of the right friends nearby do not expect the TSA to fully support you (by just sending you Astros) when you are under an attack by an alliance.
    If you fail to give information about the sort of help you need and give updates, then expect people to say **** off and stop begging.

    To all alliance members - the BEST way to help out an alliance member is to send fleet and fight with him. <u>UNLESS</u> his 'spend all points' planet is under attack and you can just massively upgrade the starbase.

    As for inviting any more alliance members in. I would recommend against it as the official AW alliances is only for scoring and has not a lot of ingame potential.

    Now if you keep getting attacked and asking for money you are either:
    A) REALLY S***
    B) Just plain ol' unlucky

    You should figure out what you could improve on and retry with a restart.

    Certainly. I'm only level 7 atm , but eating a starbase 15 should fix this.

    I posted this in the TSA forums as well but Ill put it here to incase anyone else is near an SA member

    I thought TGD had an NAP with SA but well whatever not anymore.

    OK Here is the quick lowdown. The crap just hit the fan.

    TGD members
    Berglund
    xvmiragevx
    JJBurns
    thanselm

    TGD NAP allies
    QBall
    DICEASE
    Nux

    And myself currently occupy 6 Systems.

    VS

    SA alliance members
    Grail
    Bodiroga
    ninjabear
    er_jota
    Sozi

    SA NAP Members
    Kumalo
    LucasII
    MooKeTTe

    [F] alliance Members
    [F]Suminus
    [F]KR

    [F] NAP Members
    Issac
    deebloo
    Toma


    That equals out to be 7 of us vs 13 of them. We won 5 1/2 systems they own 6 1/2

    All of us have known this moment was comming but we didnt expect it to be so soon. There has been a HUGE arms race over the past weeks. The TGD systems that Im in are surrounded on 3 sides by the enemy.

    The TGD members each have several large fleets ready to go. I only have 3 planets so I have meh, errm 6 Crusiers and 480 Destroyers

    SA members and [F] NAPS have just started the initial invasion starting with me. Il be able to fend off the first fleet but all over we are getting incomming. The planet next to me owned by QBall is getting hit with 2 fleets of
    16 Transports
    103 Destroyer
    5 Cruiser
    44 Battleship

    Everyone is mobilizing their fleets, and diplomatic communications between the 2 seem to have ceased.

    The war has just begun.

    I dont expect to last long so Im hesitant to ask for any Money from anyone considering I only have 3 planets. SA members already took out my other ones.

    So Im just gonna fight to the death.

    Ill keep everyone posted on my final moments

    That's your increase in rank, i.e. you've moved up 81 to #442 from your ranking of #523 the previous day.

    starting in about 5 days i will keep 10000 astro wars in reserve for others emergencies and my own, and possibly a trade agreement, just thought everyone should know because too many times have i spent my money when someone else needed it worse than me. (my area is pretty fight free, my system is my own completely now, cept for my 4 free planets around here)

    In 2 days my new account will have a PL of 1 or more. I am attacking a AFK right now but its going to take a long time to get there.

    I am about to lose all but my first planet.
    I didn't want to do this but I spent 3000 Astros out of my 20k to up my 1st planet's SB to level 16. This will keep me safe for at least two days so I can trasfer the rest of my Astros to my new account and have a BIG advantage.

    "This <i>system</i> is DEAD! The wormhole experiments are over!"

    I wish you all luck in your futures! My system will fall in a matter of days, there is nothing left I can do, My god have mercy on our souls!.... <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Alright guys, we've got a NAP with APG and TAA. They've already agreed not to attack TSA members. If they do, lemme know.

    oh yah and a tip to everyone else out there, when attacking going for the strongest planet first is not always a good idea, i was just able to filter all of my money to my big planet and upgrade it quick than build 40 crusiers to boot

  • TransmissionTransmission Join Date: 2003-03-12 Member: 14456Members
    I'm sitting pretty in my quadrant, with enough ally's that I don't need to focus on military nearly at all. I only have 50 BS, and no starbase, but my planets are decked out. I have a few other allies that'll always protect me (I hope). So far I'm doing better than people who started 8 days before me. I wish I was in the centre. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /><!--endemo-->
