This is a Massive Multiplayer online game that deals with you starting your own oil empire. Soon as you get situated, you can start out attacking other noobs and stealing their oil/money.

I think I found another addicting game

I started a cartel called Aces High. You have to register in the SOUTH WEST quadrant. If you join, send me your name and I'll send you an invite.

Does this mean you have to pay real money to use some of those?  E.g. Nukes, spyplanes etc

In as PETROL in the SW quad, tho I won't stick to it if paypaling is the only way to stand a chance.

well I got me 3 pumps, 2 storage and one distribution center.

collected $41,000 so far

seems once you own some oil pumps it costs ALOT more then  the base price to make more. :furious :mad:

current price: $84,375

guess I'll be waiting a while.

I'm going to mine the sea lanes and blow up a LNG tanker in port.

Your stocks should all go up shortly.

Ok, I'm in, just got my production started with a couple of wells, a tank setting, and a distribution center. However, Cash flow will be slow for awhile, and I've got some neighbors uncomfortably close.

first opinion:


this game sucks.


worthless WIKI, and "help".. forums, well I am asking a question now, "how to attack" and basically I have no "Kerosene" but how do you get it???


forum search yielded nothing, along with what the "cards" and "my deck" mean. never heard of that, have no clue.



seems to be a "real life money" pay game, we'll see how it goes, but in the mean time I got troops waiting for "Kerosene" to attack my 4 neighbors that are 9.2 miles away and have no outposts.

I think the game is still in beta.


I think this is how you get kerosene

Build a 3rd oil pump, switch it between your HQ and your storage tank to keep both full.
Upgrade your distribution center, set your 3rd pump to your storage tank and leave it there.
Upgrade one Oil pump.
Build a refinery and connect it to your storage tank, set it to kerosene.
Upgrade your storage tank
Build a second refinery, connect it to your storage tank, set it to heating oil, and tell your storage tank to not sell kerosene.
Build a third refinery, connect it to your storage tank, set it to Gasoline, and tell your storage tank to not sell kerosene and heating oil
