Raid #2 is rtb, less than 1/2 loaded. Still not too bad considering this is day 3 for me in the game.
The haul:
M:2030
C:1081
D:0

I'll get another raid, maybe two in this evening. I wasted a 1/2 day building metal and crystal mines past lvl 6. Should have been raiding yesterday .

Read something about something similar to that in the tutes - might just be server lag. (hope so).

yup goin past 6 just means you have to build more power to run them and is a waist (for now)

I got 4 raids under my belt now each netted me 2K plus (EACH) of Met and crys and 1k of deut.  That PLUS what I've produced I've spent over 10K of metal today.  

Got 3 missle launchers now (just incase) and I got a bunch of tech researched as well.

SERIOUSLY.  Don't build your mines past 6.  Get there then start on what you need for a shipyard.

TIP: Start researching for probes. They tell how much of a resource a planet is holding. I found 3 planets nearby that are inactive and hold atleast 50k of each resource.

Yup, thats my goal for today, is to be ready to launch spy probes tomorrow.  By the time I've identified potential targets and done my homework, I should have at least one cargo ship ready to go with my fighter and get me some stuff.

Too bad we cant capture their women too.

And where's the whisky?

Glad  you guys are spreading the hints around it will save considerable time.

FYI I can't post a question on the game message board yet. I guess I am not high enough in points to have the option. :(

Star I've had considerable success "blind raiding".  Pick somone close (within 20 systems+/-) that's been inactive for a while.  The payouts from raids are what's gotten me most of my points today.

I thought it was only based on points for messages. I already got the acceptance message on the alliance. Sorry, not pushing the issue, just saying that I can't ask through the game yet. NP

Dont worry about it. Once Bodhi has a chance, he will give you a rank, and that comes with the ability to send messages.
