The war against the TGD has been going well, however I suspect a few members have some moves before this beta ends soon, rest assure we will be ready.
It's even sadder when I take over planets, and see how poorly people have managed them. Focusing on robotics and research while negating hydro/cybernets is the most common trend. I just hope next beta a) I dont need to go on vacation in the first 3 days b) I can make a quick alliance. I made one this round with a person named Tempest who's still doing well, but then I needed to reset due a week's vacation. I sent him about 14000 PPs though, so I guess that helped him early on a bit. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /><!--endemo-->
It's also really hard to get TA out in the rims, since nobody thinks it's a worthwhile investment. So far I only have two, and am looking for more. The fact that I'm only lvl 12 doesn't help, either. So I've decided to go hunting for exp.
Its a bit late for TA's, by now you are probably better off investing in ships to take another planet or something, they just wont pay off this late in the game.
As nice as my planets are I'm aiming to hold them for the entire beta. I have allies willing to help me to that end and a nice little defense fleet ready to greet any would be visitors to my planets.
Rest assured, taking me out may be harder then you think.

w00t, my enemy was trying to take his planet back over and my fleet was in transit to another system so i had zero defenders there, his small fleet took it over and i sent my small fleet that i had in the same area to clear him out, in response he sends his whole fleet there, but than i send mine, he sends me a message saying hahahhahaha i am gonna waste your fleet, but mine ends up arriving 27 minutes earlier than his so instead of fighting 250 destroyer and 15 battles ships, he ends up fighting 1600 destroyers 50 cruisers and 38 battle ships

first thing to do is use your friend the battle calculator to find out how many battleships you will need to repel this attack, and how much BS's cost you, that way we know how much cash you will need

He has a 100% chance of winning with what you've got. If you could get a level 18 SB you'd have a 71% chance. If my calculations are correct, you'd need $13000 to buy a level 18 SB from level 13 or $21000 in ships ...
*edit: marine beat me to it. $50k eh? I guess I must be way off :O

es quatro
13 planets, a 14th soon, and ranked in the low 200s overall
robo/cyber are the way to go, cyber being slightly more important. Farms are good, but theres no real reason to get them past level 13 or so.
Hydro 12
Robo 13
Cyber 14
Reasearch 11
Starbase 0
