I forgot I could do that! Im going to go have my hawks steal some kerosene in just a minute!

My plan for tomorrow reset

Immediately purchase two pumps, a storage tank and a distrubution center.
next will be an outpost or two
then move onto factorys, and then into upgrades....

My plan:

2 pumps

1 storage
1 distribution

the repeat 3 more times.

Then upgrade EVERYTHING (Except storage) to level 3.

Then outpost. Heliport. military base. Airport. And ill take it from there.

no matter what I will have a virus for JGutierrez in 8.2 hours, well before the end, and I will deploy it on him, bunkered, he can kill the structure but I can still use it, and I have enough to re-build if needed.


I WILL go out with a bang :D

and I will seek him out next round first off

He seems to play US EST time generally, with a few oddities, and I am going to stalk him :p :D :t



plan?

well free pump / dist / and tank, after that another pump, then upgrade both pumps, then refinery, then outpost, then 2nd refinery.

then a separate set of pumps and tanks and dist. then refinery, then upgrade both pumps, the military base, and 2 more outposts.

from there, helo first priority military wise, and refineries to fuel raids.

once selling jet fuel, make sure a surplus this time to not get caught with no fuel for U2. also a major surplus of gasoline until I have humvee's.

once humvee's then work on getting chinook's



this past tour with the short time, the upgrade times of 8+ hours for storage tanks dissuaded me until the end when I really needed the jet fuel, even though cost was only $100,000 or less. I won't make that mistake this time.

thats goes ditto for outposts. didn't want to wait days for rebels, even though it was relatively cheap considering.

I will go for rebels WAY before marines or something. even a lvl 6 outpost only costs $125,000 with is pittance in the grand scheme, I can steal that in 1 raid of 3 on a target.

I will make sure to have more income also overall, instead of only selling 600bbl jet and 500bbl gas each cycle.
I don't know what to put here yet.

I went with 2 distribution centers and built 2 chains. It's a lot of refineries to build in the beginning but pays off double when we get to the 10-16 hour upgrade stage.

If my girlfriend is getting up early, 0200 Hawaii time, (noon GMT) if shes sleeping in, 0600 Hawaii time, (1600 GMT). But, by then, it will all be over I think. I dont mind getting up early, ive built up my tiny military, I might as well use it! lol. Ive already ordered another Super Cobra, 34 infantry, and im whording my oil to fuel the attack.
