Crack 99+ day(s) ago | be miner.. they`re rich.. :) hmmm.. a trillion.. dang juz for a uw.. :s what some pple do for glory..
see mine in 3 christmas time if i`m still playing this game and have time off from werk..
cheers n merry christmas.. :) |
{ching} 99+ day(s) ago | only because it started at 80 mil, it still lasted a lot of attacks cuz I was online switching the stacks and watching people bounce. If I had built the stack I wanted it would have lasted a lot longer, 80 mil really isnt much to start from lol but I had the time off work and had to blow :P
... didnt use most of my arties. Each to his own, can`t really say it`s a bad idea if it worked. wouldnt have lasted as long with as many turns worth of fodder/maru ships - no chance. The fodder just lets u go off and sleep for a bit i guess, but it was fun switching stacks all day |
DrunkenMasters 99+ day(s) ago | Flaming snowman`s UW wasn`t balanced at all. And I had over 150 historias used on me, that was the main reason it to succeed(me, grono and omeg were with very very very negative turns :P). Ching`s was balanced, completely bad idea imo but hell, UTU has more members and diggers than all other feds on the server combined... |
Sinarya 99+ day(s) ago | damm i only wanted to have some fun ;)
i won t be making UW now at all, it is way beyond game i think ;) |
DieOewerBoontjie 99+ day(s) ago | but money and politics walks hand in hand. |
Deiloche 99+ day(s) ago | Probably a good idea. A UW is less about fleet (though fleet does matter a lot) and more about politics, however. The game is long past the point where any individual empire is capable of doing a UW, and on most servers, well past the point where even a single fed can. |
DieOewerBoontjie 99+ day(s) ago | to be on the safe side i think i am going to try to amass a great fortune from my booming canned corn enteprise |
Ragnarok 99+ day(s) ago | Of course he was a viral too. |
Ragnarok 99+ day(s) ago | Then again, building to max pr is gonna drain a lot of cash no matter what race you are.
I seem to remember that rubber nation did a 800+ million pr UW 2 years back on normal server, and the server was only able to put it down to 550 million pr (although I think some people let it go, while others got loads of historia). |
Ragnarok 99+ day(s) ago | Yea, you can blame lower-than-average build rates for the cash drain a collective would suffer on the way up. |
Deiloche 99+ day(s) ago | I wasn`t even thinking about the possibility of captured ships when I estimated a trillion. |
DieOewerBoontjie 99+ day(s) ago | thank you |
Infernal 99+ day(s) ago | yes easily in excess. the last time i made a trip up high, a million PR or so cost about 1 bil..and that was just at around 50+ mil pr. throw in captured ships, and you`re in for a painful ride |
Deiloche 99+ day(s) ago | Depends on the ships. The UW I did on RT consumed some 1.4 - 1.6 trillion credits, using hoko/lakko/large strafez fodder/lictors as the bulk of my fleet. Collectives are a relatively cheap race, but still, building to max PR - assuming you have a decent fleet as opposed to fodder spam - would consume a lot of cash. Easily in excess of 1 trillion credits. |
DieOewerBoontjie 99+ day(s) ago | uhm around how much money would a collective need to build to max pr on rt? |
Deiloche 99+ day(s) ago | Yes, ching succeeded. Because of your historias, though, not because of his stack. Due to that ten stack I was able to shred him to pieces repeatedly. |
Yoshi 99+ day(s) ago | you should listen to Deiloche...he`s the UW King after all lol |
Ragnarok 99+ day(s) ago | Oh i dunno about that. FlamingSnowMan and Ching managed to pull off UWs that started off as a balanced fleet.
And to be honest, i was hoping that I`d actually win the first battle with no planet losses from 3x pr lol. Shoulda gone with brig spam tho considering he prolly hit on careful, but i wasn`t exactly trying to win. To be fair tho i *did* only lose 2 colonies instead of 3. =P |
Islander Game-Admin 99+ day(s) ago | Deiloche is quite right. Anything more than 5 balanced stacks in a UW fleet is going to get you decimated and laughed at =/ |
DieOewerBoontjie 99+ day(s) ago | i only have three ships that i can use. i am not proud of admitting this but i spam |
