So long GC/RT

tsk i'm aminer and i hit on agressive =D

miners can win if they spam and attack on careful most of the time, thats whats ive seen most commonly, f.axe, flysch, some others, attack on careful, its difficult to lose

so those people who like tooting their good miner stacking horns, ive never seen a STACK done successfully, a few nice half spams and several pure flysch spams for the offense

HOWEVER, there was one miner whose name escapes me who i could never kill, what a great defense, full stack too, he sat around 4mil PR all the time... i would tip my hat to that guy anyday ;)

Yeah i can understand that you quit RT omeg

*slaps Dreamland EvilLoof and Omegian

i did that once omeg, didnt use that tactics the first 3 times, so shut your trap...the last empire i did so because we needed more high pr empires fast as BC was fighting a big war against 5-6 full feds without us having any allies...

Omigian be like me and stay at high pr on a server in vm lol

miners arent soo bad, well, at least as long as you do NOT build a.miner ships ;-)

miners blow

miners aren`t all that difficult to win with

I was also a miner and well over 400 planets at my peak


I just don`t have the time these dayz to build stacksfor 10 hours everyday

so i choose an easy race aka viral so i can build quickly log off and still have some fleet in the morning

TBK some miners like drew, ishy, loof and myself cound go toe to toe with virals at even PR and walk away with 2-3 colonies on the offensive. it doiesnt need the ranks to be controled by the fed your in, just skill at knowing when to waste several hours building past 10 mill and when you see someone out to ge ya drop and take out a newbiey.

also if ur smart u use ur missions for emergency borders to protect the clusters should u ever stuff up.

yes getting 100+ low pr counters and getting 2-3 c2`s explored then collecting counters is tghe easy way to do it but wen i was miner at my peak i only got 100 of my 297 planets from counters, all the rest i got from slugging it out toe to toe with viral spammers, terrans and guard and the occasinal miner that decided building 10 mill pr kyros was a good idea.

ion short if u know wat to expect wen ur getting hit u will know how to stack with miner but its a pain in the butt race that takes forever to build to high prs and chances are if u stuffed up the placement u will get wiped out in an instant.

sad to see u go mate and u will be missed. i always enjoyed battling u wenever we met no matter the race u were.

see u on msn hopefully and remember, if u cantr beat the borries, use fodder lol

Miners need fed support or powerfull alies to prevail. If BC had an active miner right now i`m he/she would have well over 300 planets and be good on borders

Miners are not agressive they get their plaet through high power counters

lose 1 or 2 colonies fighting at low power
cash in a counter later in the week while fedmates control top ranks and get 3 colonies perhaps even clusters if you catch them off guard

Miner is not easy because it s a race that requires thinking and out smarting you opponent into a false sense of security

I use to whck lorddrewski all the time get 1-2 colonies just to find myself down 3 colonies when he hit me with an urber counter

be like me Omegian, and stay around to remind everyone how crabpy the game is right now

yeah, i hate spammers, especially guard spammers >:(

sorry to see you leave the fed and rt

So shouldn`t you have named the thread So long Aspha?
