Or you could just mail me ingame ^_^

 

[Kwah]

Sounds good. I'll join soon.

And, Py. RP'ing.

 

[Matt540 sheep god!]

What country did I get? The game says I can't connect to server...

 

[Pyritie]

I keep getting unable to connect messages too.

 

[bounty hunter2]

Wut no way no pvp for 3 day Not fair to nations like Brittain

 

[Pyritie]

Iceland? Belgium?

 

[bounty hunter2]

Still, 3 days is a lot. Marocco can take only two provinces for instance so can Italy. It is just a bit unfair.

 

[Pyritie]

Gives you more time to upgrade. We had two days of non-PvP in g1 and it worked pretty well.

 

[bounty hunter2]

It was the first game so everyone had to get to know the game. Dunno some nations have bad production of wood ore and cant upgrade, some can.

 

[Firelord213]

It allows us to build up and prepare for Wars and allows you to upgrade your economy.
Should we change it to 2 days?

 

[bounty hunter2]

Dunno everything is fine by me, two days are better, I just think it is a bit unfair. Anyway you need to get everyone to agree on this so that someone doesn't randomly start attacking.

 

[PurplePoot]

bounty, trade for raw materials from the nations which produce excess. Everyone needs certain resources and has too much of certain others.

Also, lots of people play 21 days no pvp and it works fine. Hell, someone is starting a 60 days no pvp.

 

[bounty hunter2]

I am Swedden so I have kinda imba wood and ore, which are the most precious resources so I don't consider it much fair. But okay I agree with you on that, you can achieve everything by trading, making the country survive based on economy is an achievement.

 

[PurplePoot]

Pfft, wood is only worth a lot early game. Oil becomes gold later. Iron is meh all through.

 

[bounty hunter2]

Oil becomes gold, and what about gas... I hate gas got like 200 000 in game 2 and its just piling up

 

[PurplePoot]

Use it for all your basic consumption. Trade it to people like Spain and Sweden who desperately need it.

 

[bounty hunter2]

I killed Spain in game 2 xD.

 

[PurplePoot]

And now you will feel the wrath of the Russians whom you have inadvisedly attacked (lulz Firelord is already screwed).

 

[bounty hunter2]

I kinda never cared much about game 2, sometimes I'm afk for two days, I don't have factories or anything xD. I saw this pety chance to get my hands on some provinces so I did.

While wood is useful for harbors to increase income, Wheat and oil are the most precious resources. Iron is good for basic structures, but becomes useless to have a ton later since so many non-player countries have it. Oil is only found in large amounts at two areas (Russia and Morocco), while Wheat is just incredible. It's used to supply barracks which can outproduce infantry.

Personal experience generlaly doesnt count, but I was playing as Austria Hungary, and Germany attacked me from the bat with a massive force. However, defending down to the last man my border countries, I used AUstrias wheat supplies. With 6 fortresses, I produced enough men to conquer all but Berlin and Hamburg in 3 turns...though I was invaded shortly after. Im still alive though, so thats a plus.

After everyone's built loads of barrackses then wheat becomes almost as useless as wood late-game.

 

[Captain Griffen]

The downtime's just decided G3 I reckon...I lost like 41,000 men before I could even reposition shit, and that was in a level 2 fort. In addition, Ottomans also caught Russia offguard, so I wasn't able to reinforce. Silly retarded downtime.

 

[PurplePoot]

Yeah, that was a real pain... I think it may have lost me a different game as well; I had a chance to kill 2 battleships with 1, but then the server went down, and I lost a bunch of men to a railgun.

 

[Pyritie]

Is it still down?

 

[Kwah]

Check?

 

[Firelord213]

4 spots left in game 5.

 

[Kwah]

I'm joining.

 

[Joe-black-5]

when trying to access for a game they say connecting, then application error then activating game then another application error then error not connecting to server.
can someone help me?

The Ottomans had a downtime too, and Russia was expecting it anyway. He just didn't take the threat seriously enough.

Not really, as wheat, if it disappears, just ruins your morale. I'd say I've lost one game already to to to many barracks consuming wheat in the down time (about 1/4 of my provinces have revolted against me, and Sweden is attacking)

 

[Pyritie]

Then turn off your barrackses?

 

[TheDivineBoss]

Built as much barrackses you can hold, not as much as possible. Building to the landmass maximum is good but only for a very short period of time.

Or do what Piecake said.

Russia and Austrians had enough troops to easily take the Ottomans in a decent fight. The downtime pwnt us (we got pounded by artillery, so the downtime hit us far worse).

With high wheat, you can just mass barracks and out-mass your opponent in most cases. That's what I'm trying to get to.

And after weeks of waiting, your grand army is finaly completed and then Poot blasts them to pieces with his railguns in a couple of minutes.

 

[Matt540 sheep god!]

You can split up the bulk of your army into individual groups of one to charge at the railrifle as a distraction for a big group, can't you?

 

[PurplePoot]

That's referred to as cheating and a bug in the game engine (which the devs are working on at the moment), if I understand you correctly. You can 1-1-1 at intervals them to distract them, but you aren't allowed to split your army up into a million groups of 1 all in the same place with the same order to abuse the battle system.

---

Screw railguns. Real men mass artillery with battleship support. I only really mass railguns when I'm Great Britain or Sweden, though usually battleships with Sweden.

 

[HINDYhat]

Yay for attacking during downtime!

 

[PurplePoot]

Hey, wasn't our fault

I lost a game due to it, but meh.

 

[Zombie]

Going 2v1 is not decent in the first place, so what are we talking about?

 

[Captain Griffen]

Try 3v2, France-Italy-Ottomans vs Austria-Russia.

 

[Zombie]

It's more like 2v2, France is no more than a minor annoyance. Also, the Ottomans would have left you alone if you would have done the same to them.

 

[Captain Griffen]

France sent like 200,000 men in? And why the hell would I leave the Ottomans alone to rape Russia? HINDY and I need each other to stand against Poot.

 

[PurplePoot]

France lost everything to HINDY's battleship for free, lol.

Anyhow, it appears that at the moment in game 3 I have about as many troops, and better technology, as everyone else combined.

The lulz gankage in game 2 seems to be turning on Matt/bounty/Firelord.

 

[Captain Griffen]

Ottoman's lost their army as well as the French. We did good, Hindy, given the start.
