    I woke up to this pretty message.
    So basically I just got level 1... 3 destroyers en route to second afk'er right now, waiting on culture 2 so i can take over the planet of unknown...

    I've found myself a potential ally, however he's many many systems away from me, and who knows.

    *edit* in other news, you only get experience for winning a battle. If you do the staggered attacks, you won't get as much experience, but you will almost assuredly win the battle with less casualties/expense on your side. <!--QuoteEnd--> </td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'> <!--QuoteEEnd-->
    Thanks for warning me. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    5 Destroyers off against the first AFK, and waiting for my PP to build up again.

    As a side note, I upgraded my Starbase to level 3; the first upgrade doubles its value. If the other guy ever comes back, I should be in good shape. (He's 1 day idle, with 1 login.)

    Attention !!! We have evidence of an incoming fleet around that time.
    2 Destroyer
    going to attack Alpha Rigel 4!
    We suppose its the Fleet of hustey.

    Yay he has finally sent em - Got to wait a long time for the SU though. My fleet hits the AFK'er in one hour - it would have been faster to forget the firendly exchange.

    *EDIT* Congratulations! Your attacking fleet was victorious at Alpha Rigel 1. You gained 5 experience points from lordalbtraum. The transport that I sent shortly after the fleet is gonna land 5hrs. People of planet1 hail your new lord and master <!--emo&::asrifle::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/asrifle.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='asrifle.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    ________

    Guys - have you ever continued to friendly fleet exchange to gain levels beyond the start up exchange? I'm trying to talk my system buddy into constantly sending fleets to upgrade lvls.

    Also, can you give advise on artifacts - what to do with them, how you afford them. And trade agreements > are they worthwhile/how long do they take to payback?

    Thanks, for any help on the murkier side of Astrowars.

    Just my luck... the active guy seems AFK now, and one of the afkers (not the one I'm attacking, luckily) logged back on. Seems I'm gonna have to deal with at least one person. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    My 5 destroyers hit the AFKer in about 3 hours. I also launched a transport over there to take over the planet; I'll have culutre 2 about 2 hours before it lands. Research lab upgraded to 6, and starbase to 4. I almost got Pop 5, so I'm getting Social Science now.

    Unfortunately, it seems that neither xmaster or Aldheir are AFKers. This might be good for me, because I'm already grabbing the AFKer, leaving them to fight each other. I don't see them managing to catch up with me, as they are about 3 days of production behind me. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Just to let everyone know, us Natural Selection - Astro Wars players have a IRC channel at <b>#tsaaw</b>, so come idle or talk or something.

    I am o_O at (-31,7), in case anyone is nearby. Looks like there is a multiing noob, and two good players in my system, I have already sent a destroyer to keep the noob from expanding. Hopefully me and my ally can kill the other one also <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Woo. Lost 2 destroyers, though.

    Now, I have a supply unit to spend. Get $293 cash back from a Hydro Farm, of $266 from a Cybernet?

    If you sell it (whcih should take affect in 4 hours youll get $600-$500 Id say (or( old price + 2*new price)/3) Which may or may not be as lucrative for you. What I mean is, at roughly 1pp = A$1 it may be beneficial to just sell the SU and then use the PP you buy with the A$ earned to upgrade with instead.

    Hello - first post, wooh.

    Can I join with your astrowars alliance? I might even try Natural selection out! I am in an alliance with 15 other players mostly based in the Alpha region.

    and YOU must play NS it is simply the best game ever...well, except for the warthog jump mini game..

    Great I will call him now.

    My ally is bloody AFK again. My system is way out form anyone else. I'm bio 3, saving for 4 and I can't see any other systems <!--emo&:angry:--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/mad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='mad.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    What does a murky green status box mean?

    Do you people think I'm best off attacking my system "buddy" if he stays AFK for days? As I've got nearby enemy now or a friend to bounce ships off I'm on a go slow.

    cheers for any help - what about my earlier question about artifacts and trade agreements..

    The green(can change to yellow or red) box pertains to your multi status.
    Using multiple accounts for one person is considered cheating, and they have an automatic system that monitors logins and IPs(So like it checks if one guy keeps logging two accounts from the same IP at the same time constantly) or something like that, to prevent it.

    I believe it goes like this...Green = unsuspected. Yellow = suspected, Red = (not sure of this, mostly conjecture), the account is suspended and the owner must submit a defense to the multiadmin guy, or otherwise the account gets terminated and the planets owned go to unknown status.

    i miscalculated. oh well. hopefully i'll get 6 social in time for my first planet to get 7 population. otherwise i'm doing fairly well, 1 planet with 6/7/9/10/12/5, the other one with 2/2/5/3/3/1... 2nd level in 10 hours, 3rd culture in 40-ish hours (hopefully i can cut that down to around 30. Man, I really built too many farms on my first planet. Oh well. I need an astrolabe. heh.
