I've played this game for a while now, but never been in the top ten this far into the set. Honestly at this point in past rounds I had pretty much given up, so I'm not sure how the end game works in primary. How many acres is a good target for a commie/indy? At what point should I stop growing/grabbing? Any opinions/advice appreciated, thank you!

Unless you are highly skilled at playing a commie/indy you need a minimum 50k acres to break into the top 10

Whoa OK that's a lot more than I was thinking. Any thoughts on how many days from the end one should stop grabbing?

Ummmm so yeah last set only #1 and #2 had over 50k acres and the rest not much over 30k. I plan on being there with most likely less than 20k. I got 27 last set with a Theo/Indythat got into a war then switched to demo farmer for the ast couple weeks =\

if you look back past the last 2 resets there were plenty of countries over 50k land by the end of the reset

i'm hoping this reset is a return to those days

but there are too many damn commies in my opinion this set, everyone seems to think they are the next serpentor or something

good to know

Well it looks like I'm done growing now as all the countries I grabbed from before are now retalling and getting all their acres back plus interest. Lesson learned. But still hoping for top 20. Thanks.
