Are Consumer Goods useful to the Guardian race?
D DarkGuardian

E EvilAbadayos
hehe net is all that matters here anyways. :P
M Moops
although, technically that`d be halved, work out that math, bwaha cgs half guard income !
M Moops
mines pretty close to double as well (gross not net)

Profit / Loss per turn** (without goods) -2,426,553
Profit / Loss per turn** (with goods) -1,185,489

not number crunching...the the right program for the job

Looks like the ability to do middle school math makes you a good business partner, aba. While I DO agree aba would be a good business partner... his demonstration doesn`t require much mathematical prowess, just number crunching...

no House didn`t, that was directed at Ottomans

If I ever need a business partner down under, I know exactly who I am calling.

OK then...100k land/1,100 loyalty, 100 infra guard empire.

Total without goods:

1,133,000 (1,133,000 net profit)

Total WITH goods:

1,663,000 (1,223,000 net profit)

Uses 110,000 goods a turn.

The with goods part with the net profit reflects you only make 110k profit with goods. Why? This is because you have bought 110k goods at 440k credits and sold them to your population for 550k creds.

I can see how people think this is pure profit but they seem to foget you actually have to BUY the goods with money you have previously earn`t from using turns previously so it`s not pure profit, more of an investment paying back with 25% profit margins on said investment.

So really the net profit in this one with goods is roughly a 9% income boost, not 50% like ignoprant people have been saying.

Note to everyone...do the math, THEN state an opinion with the math to back you up.

Nuff said

Hey, I would DOUBLY LOVE to see that math!

First, the N00B will learn something.

Second, the N00B will get to watch the veterans fight!

Two for the price of one!
E EvilAbadayos
you want me to do the math with and without goods on a hypothetical 100k land 100 infra guard, with 1100 loyalty (missions done) TPE?

Cos I can and will prove you VERY wrong
M Maraudian

O OttOmaNS
