Hmmm does it?
Spy-Tech Increases the chance your operatives will successfully execute and/or thwart enemy spy missions.

What's considered a 'fair' amount of turrets to have to defend your land while you grab in DR? Mayb 2m turrets on 10k, 3m at 15k, 6m at 20k, 8m at 25k, 12m at 30k? Let me know so I know how many turrets I should get next time if I get into similiar situations.

[Suggestion to this issue]

Make Special attacks(GS/BR/AB) to no effect to DR. Hows that? Since missles dont even take any effect to DR now.

I'm just asking if a country that gets into deep DR, he is not allowed to run 5:1 jets:turrets ratio and hit someone who can easily hit back.

They should do something about DR in express. They should just remove it, like, GS/AB/BR doesnt put you into DR. Solves everything.

Country A farms Country B.
Country C GS/BR/AB Country B 100 times.

Country B can't retal Country A? even knowing Country A can easily hit back again?

You cant call that abuse, call that making good use of the situation. Why would you continue to run 1:1 jet/turret ratio knowing that even if people grab/retal you, they are not going get good returns? It would be stupid to do so, right?

Smaller example but look at this from Express tihs set. This victim only had 7k land total. Loses 1200 buildings in the first AB. I definitely don't think this was the intention of the formula.

2013-02-01 20:14:05 AB John Birch (#2) The Carnival of Carnage (#79) 1222B


Did 79 has 0 tanks?

Many sets ago in express, I ABed 10-12 guys to about 0-5 CSes that had 0 tanks. It increases really fast but not like the one in 1a posted above.

I have no intention of finishing near the top because my country is screwed with low techs/ABed and #164 has 4% warfare.

So what am I suppose to do when someone GSes me 75 times? I am not allowed to grab anymore for 24 hours till my DR runs out?

I suggested DR to be 6 hours instead but no, nothing has changed.

I Put up those SOs.. Since people were selling turrets so high and when these turrets get sold. I put up an SO that is so high so commies that just logged in doesn't know the current market prices and hopefully sell them at a cheaper price... That is if they don't check market history.


And braden, seldom people in express sets gets to clear their priv market and are forced to buy from public at such a high price.. At least for me, maybe because I always have too much land for priv market regeneration.

I think its the other way round. The attack msg doesnt display ally's turret losses, they only display tropos and tanks losses. So very likely the 2 DAs didnt have troops or tanks.

As long as you're not O ally with the country that is the D ally of the country you're hitting, his def will help.

Example, you are country A, you want to hit country B, country C is def ally with country B.

As long as Country C is not your off ally, he will aid country B in his defence.

I dont think int ally affects anything, his spies will still work for you to take an op from the country you op.

Assuming all ops are successful

Spy - 3 countries
Demo - 7
Bioterrorism - 2
Sabotaging missles - 3

You're left with 10 ops for bomb structures. Definately not enough. At least increase it to 35, like Primary.

Wait, really? I could've sworn I've seen double events but maybe I'm dreaming it or thinking of a missile or something.


I have never experienced double events on booms yet. But I have produced 2 missles in 1 turn before.

Since land trading requires you to have low defence , uou cannot effectively land trade in Primary since you will not be 'untouched' by other people if you're gonna run low defences.

Insane evaluation there.

Unfortunately, goods passing in the market in almost 'unstoppable' because it only happens in the last 1-2 hours, express market goods only take 15-45 mins to reach the market(and it tells you the exact time it will hit the market) and there are so few people playing in express to be camping the market with you.

He had a decent military tech so I assumed the lead in his final networth was probably all the goods selling from his 'allies' and getting his priv market cleared.

Well, good job though. :P

Spyops are different. The sender of a pending ally request will have the alliance cost added/shown in a spyop. The receiver of a pending ally request does not have the alliance cost added/shown in the spyop. Free-GDI is not shown in a spyop.

Spyop is not Advisor. The new saved spyops are shown in advisor format, which is a bit problematic because the advisor format takes into account free-gdi and only counts real allies, not pending ones. So if you go to your saved spy ops right after you spy, the number will be different.

It might be a bug, or it might not be.


I brought this up before.http://forums.earthempires.com/...8836410&z=spy-history

You don't necessarily need a SOA even if they have higher than 0.2%. What a waste, a person with 0.3% are highly to have 2 res/int or 0.45% to have 3 res pact and so on.
