got 3 pumps hoping to be able to upgrade distro, right before I leave for work. then will have 13-14 hours selling 600 Bbls/hour. then maybe enough for refinery. next day or so upgrade or build more pumps (whichever is cheaper) then tank upgrades or build. get to my cash cow shopping center, resorts, stadium quickly as possible.

when cash cow going good build at least 3 outposts and park around 300 camelhumpers at each one will need to build bases for the slots to do it. then set storage for personal fuel uses. then more bases for other troops. then helipad or 2. then airport, biolabs etc.

something along this line.

just wait until you all in the middle need help, and I don't have the fuel to get there cause I'm in no-mans-land.

probably will have no one to raid either out there.

this just sucks major.

It says cartel inactive until the founder logs in

cc, but it should put you back in our cartel. Most of us logged on, and found out we were in ARFCOM.

The link in my last post merely put's you back in Aces High; The cartel's still inactive until meatwad log's in.

bah just messing with Cav, though it is a major bummer.

last tour the longest raid was on Jguterriz and the was only 35 miles.

and remember the new map system, people are 15 away default instead of 10

Just to be clear, I should always count my HQ as producing 100BBL of CRUDE to whatever distrubution facility it is connected with right? So right now I have three oil pumps (100bbl each), + the HQ, meaning I am doing 400bbl a cycle? correct?

cav58d · « **Reply #206 on:** May 09, 2007, 03:48:12 PM »

One more thing. Have we found out whether defensive ranges move diagnol or is it only vertical and horizontal

no HQ doesn't magically produce oil, or am I missing something totally here?

I know there's that whole "tutorial" about changing your HQ to this or that, but it doesn't make a lick of sense to me...

right now I have my 200bbl from my 2 pumps in my tank, and nothing in HQ.

cav58d · « **Reply #208 on:** May 09, 2007, 03:57:00 PM »

I am 99.9% positive that HQ does produce, and has the capability of storing 100 barrells of crude an hour. However, i'm also the guy who had to take MAT 99 and 100, just to qualify for MAT 103 in college, so my calculations could be in outer space.

Anyways, I just checked "no" to the sale of crude from my HQ, so if at :20, I have 100 bbls of crude stored in HQ then we know the answer, but like I said....I'm nearly positive that it is.

do you have a pump going to HQ?

I just re-read the wiki's "getting started" and it makes sense now.

they say to set the 3rd pump to HQ because a lvl 1 storage tank only holds 200bbl so that 3rd pump would do nothing without another tank. the HQ just works as a temporary tank for a new lvl 1 pump (100bbl)
