Seriously though, try raiding. A single unescorted Small Cargo will bring back about 1600 of each resorce. :shock:

Dang, sky7753 of the Archades Alliance is on his way to attack me.

Really random since he's a lot higher ranked and from several star-systems away.

Alls I got is 6LLs, 3LFs, and 1LC.

I'm hosed.

And this is the whole point of an alliance; Dealer set up circular logging and we should probably start using it now to call for help and the like. (Granted I just got a research lab in U20 about 40 mins ago, so i'm out, but you get the idea.

)

Send the ships out of system; go ACS someone in our alliance. If you're sure you can't win there's no point in sacrafising your ships. Also, load as much of your resorces as you can onto the LC, spend the rest, and shut dow your mines. Save as much as you can, deny him the rest. Maby if he dosn't get much from the raid he won't come back.

It is indeed a very tempting idea. I'll throw together 2 or 3 fighters and a cargo or two, raid me some planets. I'll attack other systems though, so as to avoid an uprising at homebase.

Good idea.

I'm sorry to here that Caelus. If I had any ships, they'd be yours.

Uni 33 is doing well though. I am just about ready to built cruisers.

Just make sure they're inactive, that way they won't attack you. If it has an (i) or (iI) you're golden.

I'd already dispatched the Light Cargo and spent as much as I could of my resources.

Hadn't occurred to me to send my fighters away and shut down the mines. Thanks.

Damn.

The attacker has won the battle!
He captured
264 metal, 267 crystal, and 111 deuterium

The attacker lost a total of 0 units.
The defender lost a total of 14.000 units.
At these space coordinates now float 0 metal and 0 crystal.
7 Light Laser could be repaired.

He destroyed 7 Light Lasers with 3 Small Cargos, 6 Light Fighters, and 3 Heavy Fighters.

I am now naked.

Edit: Nevermind, I just noticed the "7 Light Laser could be repaired" part! Lucky me! I won the 70% chance to survive on all of them! Yay! :grin:

No problem.

Whiner- Gotcha. Let's make it happen' cap'n!

Cal- Glad most of your stuff was okay. We can now see just how valuable heavy fighters are.

So everyone make sure you get impulse research going. It'll take 2 hours minimum, so make sure it's the first thing you check when you log on.

I already have HFs, I just need an oponant. And soon I'll have crusers. :twisted:

Anyone know what expeditions do?

Ok I've been looking through the oGame help threads and I think [url="http://board.ogame.org/thread.php?threadid=13884"]this one[/url] will be very helpful to you :]

You have no idea how satisfying this combat report was, guys:
The attacking fleet fires 1 times with a total firepower of 5 at the defender. The defending shields absorb 5 damage
In total, the defending fleet fires 4 times with a total firepower of 360 at the attacker. The attackers shields absorb 10 damage.
Attacker karamon ([2:193:9]) destroyed.

No way am I going to let myself be a farm
Unfortunately I'm going to be away from tomorrow morning till monday so on vacation mode I go, see you all next week heh

cheers bud

Makes me wonder...does oGame have a wiki page?

Looks like it'll take me 3 hours just for level 2, and it'll be at least 10 hours before I have enough crystal to start it.

It will take a while. It took me the weekend to get level 2 sorted in uni 33.

by **Pot Bot** » Thu Feb 21, 2008 2:51 pm

man, i cant send my resources away while im gone because i cant afford a cargo ship. I logged on this evening to 173 metal 74 crystal and 247 deu'thingymabob'. Ive reported the guy who keeps attacking me, he's done it 8 times today the tube

by **Hellstar** » Thu Feb 21, 2008 3:02 pm

Great... you guys get me hooked on oGame and now IT'S DOWN! :sad:

Finally got the emergency login to work and since no one has attacked me all day I now have 1 rocket and 7 light lasers for defense lets see if that holds off some for awhile
