Isn’t a wise decision. Tried all X rep but that didn’t go as planned. Didn’t think I’d get farmed since last set was never attacked, but was a CI. Still trying to remember how to play. Knocking the rust loose

Yeah there are a lot of people that like to hit humans here. You definitely need to carry some D. All-X rep can finish strong on this server - see the pinned thread for Kingme's server record - but you can get 30m easier with some decent grabbing.

For grabbing, use the new advanced search tool and you can sort by diminishing returns and make sure you always hit the freshest targets. Also try to grab on-strat as much as possible to maximize returns.

Thanks for the advice. I’ll check that out tomorrow

It's been worse the past couple sets. There are some really bad players that have come out of the woodwork recently.
You would think getting leveled multiple times and out netted constantly would make them wonder what they could be doing differently... but I digress.

With that said, It's never wise to run no defense even with the safeguards of express GDI. As an all-x you can usually run pretty low defense since you won't draw the attention of higher acreage though.

You don't actually need to grab on-strat - that's a requirement only for alliance and coop servers.
For all other servers (including express), strat/building-type doesn't affect gains.

This guy wins like every round. If I say something and he contradicts it, go with what he said.

Nah, he's just really really lucky.
