Oh great...

well am I ever in a bind now. I cant ship materials without action points, and I cant get action points unless I can ship materials...

Catch 22.

Anyone want to send me some marble?

exarkun1178 · 11-30-2008, 11:50 AM

i will as soon as i get some action points my self....lol

exarkun1178 · 11-30-2008, 11:50 AM

chapster? did you start a new city in lambda?

DrJ · 11-30-2008, 11:55 AM

Ok, for some reason I had some action points just now, so I sent some more wood to my colony to upgrade my governors residence.

exarkun1178 · 11-30-2008, 11:55 AM

timmah, can you make me a regular general? as ive come to understand, i will be able to have a much more viable role with regards to milt. i will be able to see everyones armys, work in attacks, view attacks, and being attacked reports. etc. i think it would be much more usefull then being able to promote and demote people... doesn't seem to do to much anyway.lol. or id even enjoy the diplomat role, as a second place prize...

DrJ · 11-30-2008, 12:18 PM

I found a source of marble, lol...

I found a town that seems to be idle and well stocked, without any military and have been pillaging the hell out of it.

I dont know how long that gravy train will go, but it seems to be working for now.

no alliance affiliations either.

exarkun1178 · 11-30-2008, 12:19 PM

do not attack him more then 5 times a day.....

gt3guru · 11-30-2008, 12:20 PM

I'm getting one of my games back, but unfortunetly its the one far away from Dr J so I'll be of no help in that fight.

exarkun1178 · 11-30-2008, 12:21 PM

Why?

exarkun1178 · 11-30-2008, 12:38 PM

there is a rule against it. if you attack a player inactive or not 6 times or more in a day, you are in violation... and your account is subject to ban.

DrJ · 11-30-2008, 12:41 PM

ok then, no more pillaging him today.

ZJChaser · 11-30-2008, 12:42 PM

What if I am attacking 3 different towns all owned by the same guy? and I use a couple of my colonies to do so? What are the limits on something like that?

exarkun1178 · 11-30-2008, 12:46 PM

.. i believe you run a risk. if you are reported then they can ban you. but it does not throw a red flag like attacking the same city.

i have been doing the same. a large player near me went inactive a week ago. he has 4 large(22-24)lv cits with in an hour of me. so i attack one with 5 waves, then the other...etc. then from another city of mine i repeat. so far so good... but i would not be surprised if i was banned for a few days because of it.

chapster5 · 11-30-2008, 01:29 PM

I have started a new city lol forgot to mention it, here:

Omuos[26:39]>Cheese Island 2

ZJChaser · 11-30-2008, 03:50 PM
