Opinions from plunder marus?

Either engrish is your primary language, or you`re just a dithering moron. I can`t quite figure which I would like more to believe.

I suggest either A: Knowing the subject matter at hand. Or B: being able to clearly and legibly formulate and type a point, before attempting to argue with me.

In the meantime, I shall continue LOLing at your expense!

Travvivian: you really don`t know what your talking about.. why do you think anyone has suggested putting mining infra on planets? your the one who`s off topic majorly

<3 Hahahahahaha

I`m kidding Trav. Your response to keltard was pretty funny though.

Plunder as you get - strip mine - and hunt others Clusters for food production.

Eden is the exception, but make more $$$ from constant food production than you can from being a plunder Maru..

I agree with TBK - I didn`t have the patience =)

I`m sure Ishy...

Unless he`s trying to point out that you can`t build Mining infra on Larges... In which case I`m still LOLing in incredulity. If you need to mine every time you capture something you`d like to pop up and plunder, you aren`t worth $hit as a plunder Maru in my book. Sloppy planning, that.

*Travv notes his Maru`s typically maintain a 15-40k stock of ore.* Heh.

I think if food prices are low, then yes, it`s worth popping up -- but it takes a long time. You have to decide if it`s worth having the higher base pr for extended period of time, esp on slower servers

sometimes, i like to build infrastructure without ore!

Lmao, Trav... You sure?

*sigh*

...Really?


I understand perfectly well how ore works. You know, having played Maru for something like six years. And having been on GC for around eight. I simply fail to see the relevance to the discussion. Ore is necessary, whether it be a 1 land spaz, or 11,000 land Large you`re building infrastructure on. We all have that pretty well established...

Travvivian : ore is used to populate U.larges.. large Clusters in order to grow population which is how plunder maru would get the most credits out of a plunder

I fail to see where ore came into the discussion?

plunder maru are most effective if you can collect your own ore from the planets you capture. having to buy ore from the market to pop planets is not very effective

Agreed with Treize.

Larges I`d immediately asplode, or kill the pop off of and leave as a border (if staying out of DP.)

Never wasted the time. Edens are a different story.

it`s really depends on the current food prices and how big the large actually is and how high your housing is.

Yes you make your own food (I hope) but even if your using your own food, it could potentially be sold on the market at 1 under the market price, so it still has a cost to use.

For me personally, i just blew up larges as I got them, mainly to deny them from retals, but also due to the long as heck pop time, unless as Jammer said, there is no-one out and about with a counter or even around you to wack.

It`s situational, if you`re out of targets for a while, as is so common these days, and you`re base is just 1-4 planets, and you CAN sit in NP and research, go for it, drop and research till the large is populated, it can`t hurt anything. But if there are a ton of people around for you to hit, just plunder it now, and take the gamble that perhaps something you get from one of the other targets will make your fighting worthwhile.

That`s just my opinion, of course.

Maru are not a race for patient people

Hit plunder repeat, Hit plunder repeat, than hit some more \**/
