REQUESTS- I posted these in the forum, and sent them in direct PM to Natedog, and he wrote me back saying he really liked a lot of the idea's. Incase you don't have access to the forums, here is what I asked for.

Voice Vox Between Squad Members

Attack Ledger - (when clicking on an individual structure, telling you how many times that structure has been used in outgoing attack during past 8 hours)

better ledger- give over all stats on 1 page - total fuel refined, stolen...troops...killed... etc...

My personal favorite are the last two; hack and destroy ledger

Hack- For a major sum of cash, have the ability to hack into your oponents combat ledger, and manipulate who he see's as attacking him. ie- you type in any name you want for what he will see as incoming attack

destroy- ability to destroy incoming attack ledger, so he is blind to who is incoming attacking

JGut was hit, smashed, bashed to the end. he didn't even have a camelhumper left to his name by 15:00.

my camelhumpers took out 2 of his A-10, and 1 F-22, in one of my 1st attacks on him.

costed a fortune in fuel to hit him.

me and Frode cleaned up.

heard that Cmat1 helped

I think CMat1 and Tenchi would be good cartel mates. they seemed impressed by our coordinated multiple bashing attacks. when we do get together and pound someone.

was fun. next round we gonna be a bunch of

guys.

and yeah what quad we joining next round? same one? might need to be if Tenchi and CMat1 going to be in it. up to yall.

guessing Meatwad needs to call it.

WHICH QUAD????????

68slayr · « **Reply #156 on:** May 08, 2007, 05:05:06 PM »

how about some starting strategys?

Economy:

i think 2pumps, 1 storage tank, 1 dist, one refinery, if money allows since natedog is lowering the price another refinery

i will build atleast 2 maybe 3 strings making jetfuel and selling....that is my main income.....

then i will have 1 string making kerosene not selling

1 string making gasoline not selling and if it gets to the point i will try for another string to make but not sell jetfuel.

in the 1st 2 strings i hope it sells 800-1500Bbl

Military:
outpost :50 milita
outpost: spys + a few milita

Military base: infantry + humvees

helipad: cayuse
blackhawks
cobra's
chinooks

i havent gotten into WMDs yet but it sounds like natedog nerfed them.

i havent really thought to much past this

let me know what you think and some of you strategys......BTW which quad??????

are you inviteing tenchi and cmat?

2 strings is 8 refineries and beyond that it starts really costing to look at 4 more for the third string.. right when you want to start thinking about military expenses. I found 2 to be great, I ran 4 oil wells off each and gave each their own tanks/distibution center. You can always disconnect a refinery if you want a turns' worth of kerosene puddling up for an offensive and still have cash coming in.

I got all pumps up to L5, dist ctrs were L7, tanks were L3 before I started adding a rig on each string. Each string was pumping around 16000bbl today. Beyond that I think shopping centers & stadiums are going to produce more cash.

read this to learn why my camelhumpers laid a hurting on the planes and choppers.

ATK hits them when they are on defense, meaning my 17,000 ATK completely overwhelmed his 3,400 DEF. thus he dies.

Meatwad · « **Reply #162 on:** May 08, 2007, 07:41:42 PM »

The call for right now is to get situated and then go from there

There is something new going on

Casual Server 1 - Start Date: May 8th @ 23:00 System Time (10pm central)
Casual Server 1 - End Date: Sep 4th @ 15:00 System Time

Casual Server 1 will close to new players on Aug 1st.

Pro Server - Beta 2 Round Start Date: May 9th @ 15:00 (2pm central)
Pro Server - Beta 2 Round End Date: June 7th @ 15:00

Apparently, you can use your registered name and can play in both servers as long as you have one account. Two different servers, two totally different situations

yeas we will have to choose...

I was reading the :casual" server will have bases 20 apart instead of the 10 last round, pro will be 15... and are accounts seem to default to "pro"

and Natedog PM'd me back he gets asked if he is "natedog" this or that from all sorts of other games, he is not the natedog from here though.
