top 40 country. 15m+ turrets looking for a D ally about the same size!!

PM me i suppose with how many turretsish u got :)

you probably want to look for turret strength. Last reset, my 25 mil turrets was worth more than jj's 50 mil turrets.

1 turrets strength = 2 defensive points.

and yes i did have 50M turrets.

when i got broken, i had 45M approx with 2 good def allies.

Huh? your ally's defensive bonuses don't give you more defense as far as i know

jj didn't have defense bonus. I did

but if you think it doesn't then test it out :)

Last reset, tdoung's had x1.25 (Dict) x1.5 (Weapons) x1.2 (def bonus). That's why his 25m turrets was worth more than JJ's 50m turrets (and JJ was a Republic too).

yeah i was a rep with 115 pct weap tech.
no D bonus.

so we were pretty even. also had 1M troops and 1.5m tanks.

Yeah I get that, but I mean in terms of defensive ally.

If tduong had 25m turrets, his ally gets 6.25m turrets help and the only factor applied to that is the Pang/Mehul factor, I think.

Squeak! poop, poop

God! There it is again, and it was right

it goes goes by total def points. Not # of units.

Nope.

it's definitely units. Ally weapons/govt does not change anything.

Yup. Def allies are based on troops + turrets + tanks and their relative strengths.

I'd always rather havw a non-dict ally because they seem to think that they can have lower def units and that that's a good thing.

I sometimes spy alliances of dicts to see who their allies are because i know that it is unlikely that the ally will receive lots of def from the dict.

so are you saying their # of units use your govbonus + weapons. Or are you saying allies units does not benefit from any govbous or tech at all?

Govt type, tech, points have no effect on alliances. You have been doing it all wrong all along. Hence why I told you a while back that your "oversending like a mofo to make sure you break on a topfeed" did not make any sense.


WeaponsTech% * GovtBonus * Readiness * (Troops + Jets*2 + Tanks*4) + min(WeaponsTech% * GovtBonus * Readiness * (Troops + Jets*2 + Tanks*4), 0.25 * (AlliesTroops + AlliesJets*2 + AlliesTanks*4)) where min(value1,value2) = lower of the two values

That makes me question my luck as some of these LG where i caculated the gov bonus + weapons of allies and still bounced.

Whatever, at my size, I don't even bother to spy on allies. It doesn't save as much on losses as the spies I might/will lose or the cash I will lose spending turns spying. I'll take the extra loss and walk away keeping my spal up. The extra cash i gained from hitting the cash button more tha cover the extra losses.
In fact, almost 1/2 of my LGs are blind PS this set.

Wow!
