Ran 16 this set. I guess it gave me the military and lower land to avoid suiciding but they are not gonna finish nearly as well as I had hoped.

msn -

My techers didn't avoid suiciding :(
60k acres fully built a month into the set ... and then turned into parking lots

Didn't even get a chance to start stockpiling with em, they got suicided right as they were beginning to stock.

I ran 6 and they all lost 10-15k acres to suiciders and I made the mistake of regaining that land, cause by the time I started stocking with them tech was already around 2k and dropping:(

I usually play 4 techers, as i figure a 1:4 ratio, will help me the most, and techers take a tad more time than Casher or Farmer.

<---- I ran 16 too. I was hoping to get 200 mil avg between them,
ya right// i lost 1 early on to suciders, killed 5 myself, and spent around 50 bil to pound llaar

I think i can break 160 mil avg. The market just suxed.

farmer should have rocked.

I mostly avoided suiciding (a few hits from the guy in llaars tag who later killed drinks top guy) and still won't beat 210 mill anw or so. Last set my techers were a little less efficient land trading and averaged about 300 mill. Selling bushels around 44-45 made a lot of the difference, I did not see the bushel crash coming that fast.

I blame it on those running 16 techers, just so you know :p

I ran 6 techers and they sucked.

I ended up out of town at some really inopportune moments and when I got back from my most recent 4-day trip, the tech prices went from low 2k's to the fluffter.

I was expecting a decent 150-160M per, and between the time away, inopportune timing of the price drops and the resulting apathy when I realized my set was going to suck, I fell very short of that.

how did techers suck? i felt like i bought 4-6k priced tech all set long

you just need to read my mind as to which tech on which day i want, and you'll do fantastic
