Is this the prisoner's dilemma? If we all waited and just take turns hitting once we'd all be better off?

Could be in play for those bigger targets, but for the robot countries that don't buy turrets it seems last one to the free meal loses

Nite, thanks for those pointers I'll keep in mind to be converting the buildings as I get them.

How many CS would you try to build for a 50k land target? 400 or more?



Personally, I've found it pretty difficult to get to 50k by turn 1500. Granted 1500 turns isn't the absolute answer to when to stop, but it's a good starting point. I wouldn't focus so heavily on land if it's at the cost of not stocking. Different strategies require less land to be successful as well. You'd be surprised what you can get away with if you have great production levels (good tech, fully built, etc.).

What I'm trying to say is, don't be afraid to experiment and try 20k, 30k, or 40k as a goal and adjust your CS accordingly.



That makes a lot of sense, thanks for that. Maximising the efficiency of each turn played instead of land gaining seems to be my learning point this set. It's nice to be able to reflect with feedback in this somewhat complicated game :)

I think my approach for now will be to just build CS as I gain land as a way of cashing turns earlier on and not be too focused on a fixed target.

Something I wonder about this set Selling bushels on PM. is it a 50/50 investment in agri and military tech as I grow? Or do you target a certain % for each

Thanks Kingme, ARod and NiteIL for the generous offer of advice. NiteIL I think you win this server every set? so it's amazing to be offered tips from the best player in the world haha

Can't figure out how to make my profile visible on mobile so I think this is the page I need to share

I usually play a techer but this set tried farming

I felt in strong shape with 24 h to go, 60k acres and no vendettas.
I wasn't carrying any stock at this point though as all my production went into build cost and tech.
Maybe should have stopped grabbing earlier and focused on building a stockpile

Definitely didn't build enough CS early game either and made the mistake of building them in the endgame rather than say cashing my turns

Bought a bunch of mil tech, Traded in oil rigs and ent/RES for 5k mil bases and jumped off the private market without switching govts at $36/bushel

50m seems a stretch but I am game to try if you got any suggestions!

I farmed the robots to oblivion, didn't get attacked all set, and still couldn't crack the top 3.

acres don't matter? Skill does though clearly.

If he grabbed humans and got the win, that would be getting away with it.


Still, what are people doing with their missiles
