I'll have enough resources to upgrade my embassy to level 3 in a minute or two, so what do I do? Do I go ahead and get it done or can I devote the resources to something else a bit more selfish?

I personally say keep doing whats in best interest for your growth until we are ready to get more people in. I don't know if anyone has volunteered to take up the reigns as the recruiter to make it worth it yet.

FrogMan · 09-12-2007, 06:04 PM

decided to build a palisade for now, all part of my super-defensive strategy

Some more traps will probably be done soone too

FrogMan · 09-12-2007, 10:12 PM

Castlerock, you care explaining what kind of attack that was where you attacked an occupied valley? I'm intrigued by it.

That's what the game does when you attack someone and then their village is removed for inactivity

FrogMan · 09-12-2007, 10:32 PM

yeah, kind of figured it out afterward. Thought you both had found some untapped valleys to attack or something...

FrogMan · 09-12-2007, 10:36 PM

I just sent my 7 phalanxes on a raid some 4 hours away only for them not to stay home and be killed in any kind of unforeseen raid. Somebody in a population 7 village somewhere will have a heck of a time trying to understand where that came from...

Surtt · 09-12-2007, 11:31 PM

My buddy ender_ is back.
I wounder where she has been the last couple of days.
It is too bad she is going home empty handed, again!

Hey Frogman, I sent you a couple of clubbers just so they would not get killed when I am attacked.

Alan T · 09-13-2007, 05:38 AM

Yellow5 · 09-13-2007, 06:12 AM

Castlerock was hit by Starbarbar, a member from TC who we have a NAP with. I have contacted Combine and asked that he clear that up with Starbarbar, and that any resources Catslerock lost during the raid be returned.

CleBrownsfan · 09-13-2007, 06:31 AM

Any of you guys purchase gold? My upgrades of 25% are about to end and I'm actually thinking about doing the $5.99 purchase...

Oh, whoops, forgot that I had changed names.

Castlerock · 09-13-2007, 08:23 AM

By my calculation I lost 1521 resources last night. 3 troops @ 440 each plus the loot they ran off with. As well as my ability to raid inactives today.

The whole troops thing sucks. I have never had one survive long enough to bring back 440 units worth of plunder.

Yellow5 · 09-13-2007, 08:29 AM

Waiting for Combine to respond. He said he was going to talk to his alliance member about the raid. I made it clear we want resources in return for the attacks, and that guy is loaded right now.

edit: And yes, I have purchased gold once mine ran out. I did it because I like the bonus that I get, and the ability to hurry production.

Yellow5 · 09-13-2007, 10:13 AM

Please read the news within the game. We have formed an alliance with two new groups!

I am trying to get the smaller bands together so we have some defense against the big boys as we progress in the game.

TC, FÅLLEN and CRO_1 are off limits for attacks.

lordscarlet · 09-13-2007, 10:34 AM

For the future, I have a coworker in TAN, but it seems like a larger alliance.

Warhammer · 09-13-2007, 10:39 AM

bull sent me a message about joining our alliance. I told him that I would pass it on, but we're full at the moment. That could change, second alliance possibly, etc., etc., etc.

Warhammer · 09-13-2007, 10:39 AM

A little OT, anyone on server 3 classic?

Warhammer · 09-13-2007, 10:46 AM

lordscarlet, I'll sit for you if you get me set up.

sabotai · 09-13-2007, 10:29 PM

Just sent my 3 Legionnaires on their first raid of an inactive account. Woohoo!

FrogMan · 09-13-2007, 10:55 PM

DAMNIT! another member of TC has attacked one of us after we've signed theNAP, it's Crumpler this time. What frigging language should we tell them so they understand?!?

You guys must have set something in our tribe thing cause his village appears in a blue square, I take it that it means we have a NAP with them, no? Can't he see that on his end or do they need to set it themselves differently?

FM

Brillig · 09-13-2007, 11:05 PM

Actually, he doesn't show up blue for me.

Oh, and as far as I'm concerned, they already used up their freebee. I say they either pay reparations or the NAP is off.

sabotai · 09-13-2007, 11:47 PM

He doesn't show up in blue for me, either.

Alan T · 09-14-2007, 06:41 AM

My response to them is posted on the in-game alliance forum. If they want to continue attacking, then no reason for a NAP. I'm not going to tap dance around their excuses. They either repay or its war.

CleBrownsfan · 09-14-2007, 06:49 AM

Our first WAR!! Nice!! LoL

Warhammer · 09-14-2007, 07:10 AM

Lordscarlet you set me up as WarhammerII right?

Castlerock · 09-14-2007, 07:22 AM

Crumpler is in the space between yellow and I. And we should try farming their weaker members.

lumber: 48
clay: 54

crop: 17, soon to be 25...

I just got a shipment of crops in to allow building one field up. Gotta love those long shipment commutes.

lordscarlet · 09-14-2007, 10:33 AM

We need to have our discussion either primarily here or primarily in the game forum.

I already posted a thread there about production.

Alan T · 09-14-2007, 10:36 AM

Well if we start recruiting non-fofc people we should have it there..

If we keep it all FOFC folks, its easier here, since I hate that forum there

CleBrownsfan · 09-14-2007, 10:42 AM

oops... I forgot about the in game forum for our alliance

chinaski · 09-14-2007, 11:46 AM

looks like they felt bad for the slow server performance the last couple days and gave us all free 2 day access to Plus. Good time to evenly distribute your resources via the npc marketplace and bump up your resource production with the +25% boost.

CleBrownsfan · 09-14-2007, 12:50 PM

Man do I LOVE raiding!!! I'm getting a nice amount of resources from other villages
