a bunch finally sold :) probably the stuff you bought. lol

If tech doesn't sell I'm going to have to farm everyone I can to gain networth instead

Too many big techers this round I think..

LOL

LOL, finally someone points it out! awesome

I suppose you are right Hawk, I could have hit him with the 40 mil net worth country I had and it wouldn't have mattered how much defense he had :)

DerrickICN.. I've finished top 5 in express.. and top 10 three times, but I've only been playing again since mid January, so that's not too bad .. I don't really have a lot of time to play, since I have a job and a rl family that is more important than this game.. I don't even try for 1st place because I can't log in on Sunday afternoons when express is ending

Who builds a country up to 250k acres and only has 4 mil turrets worth of defense? that's the real question.. #75 was looking to get smoked.. don't be 30k acres fatter than anyone else in the game if you're not going to have any defenses. I grabbed 75k acres with all explore farmer countries that took maybe 3 mins every two days to play

I'm sorry if I hurt his chances at a top 3 finish, but he didn't deserve a top 3 finish anyways with the lack of defense

I play for fun and I like to stir up sh!t, that's for sure.. but I don't really care about how I finish, my networth, or even whether I finish... I made those countries to test dif strategies and see if playing a farmer country would actually be worth it .. turns out its not, farmer sucks

I'm most certainly not a liar.. And you can see the news for the countries I built to test strategies (SUCK) .. I got bored of playing them all and land grabbed the largest country in the game.. he was all rigs, 250,000 rigs or so.. I did quite a few raid oil reserves spy ops which were getting about 8 mil barrels each.. dumped it all for $5 each as my countries were being destroyed.. lol.. thats why I say may or may not, as I'm not sure what happens to good en-route to market when your country gets killed

In about 5-6 hours there may or may not be 20-30 mil barrels of oil coming on for $5 each

You talking about the corrupt mods who have a different set of rules for themselves and their friends versus everyone else Invictus?

yes, yes it was :)

We appreciate that.. we killed the other 4

hilarious

I suppose I could have won.. oh well, top 10 is still nice, good playing everyone!

ya that smelly guy is definitely not me.. I don't even how how to use proxies .. and I wasn't around when he was posting earlier.. this whole thread has gotten way out of hand actually.. lol, I thought it would be funny to make a country named celphi farmer.. and I didn't even get a chance to hit him once.. so this round I had a chance to hit him today and I figured why not.. now I've had my fun, although I think you guys are right I probably could have won the set, but then we wouldn't have all had this wonderful discussion.. lol, oh well.. a new reset is upon us :)

I tried that last set.. I made a country called celphi farmer and you had one of your "friends" create a country to go after me.. instead of simply facing me yourself like a real celphi would

yes, thank you :) it is a non-clan non-ally server.. but countries like celphi and celphi farmers killer are allowed to collude and work together and its okay for them .. and its actually just those who aren't friends with the mods that get deleted .. I understand now

I have no aliases, and I only run 1 account.. I've been deleted in the past, but not for cheating.. it was for so called "collusion" ... which is a bogus thing because anyone should be able to watch news and jump in on attacks if they see someone attacking.. it is a war game after all

seems you have more than one fan.. smelly bad guy is not me

I didn't have a war built country.. lol. my goal was 35k acres and 30 mil net worth.. you were light on defenses for your acres today and I took advantage. then you messaged me saying I was not smart and I should have looked at your turns.. so i recalled my bushels and jumped early :) good luck for your retals.. oil is expensive

I built my country to try to hit 35k acres.. I wont be able to log in later today anyways so I didn't care that much about my final NW.. I hit you this morning with a nice PS.. and you messaged me almost instantly saying I was not smart.. so I hit you again and recalled my bushels and jumped early.. :)

just like anyone can hide behind gdi and stock up to go for the kill..

pretty pathetic I guess :) those are some nice grabs though

Don't worry.. if my goal this set was a high net worth .. i could have gotten a lot higher

satisfying

Hey celphi.. i broke gdi :P

haha nice, and celphi that's the problem with gdi.. it gives you way too much protection.. what KoHearts did would be considered even more fair play than what you suggest above.. its you hit me twice so I hit you twice.. and now its game on or move on... but at least its a fair fight either way .. no hiding behind gdi

grabbing is never done, there's something way too satisfying about hitting that Send Attack! button

what a great idea.. I hadn't thought of that.. haha

I spied my target.. did all the calculations, and then.. wah wah no oil for sale on the market

Trumpoz I disagree, I'd say it looks more like two attacks and two retals fair and square, although your right.. both broke gdi, but KoHearts is being generous with the ball

Panda is dead

good I was getting worried he'd hit my hobos :)

seems to be just playing foolishly on purpose... hence the name I guess

lol, I saw that he hit you three times and was wondering if we'd see a retal or 100..

Sorry aboot that eh, lol

Looks like Darkness and Darkn3ss came out of no where after PANDA as well .. lol

The funny thing is that the PANDA clan fights just like the real life Panda probably would ..

Pandas are useless creatures.. There have been conservation reserves set out, well publicized captive breeding programs, and yet the Panda is still endangered. The Panda is basically a wildlife equivalent of a depressed guy living on welfare in his moms basement.

Polar bears are also preferable to pandas

Pandas are a third rate zoo animal, Canada prefers real bears like the grizzly or the brown

#53 looks pretty land fat.. might be a good target.. lol :P

GDI gives you the ability to basically not need to purchase troops or tanks.. even go light on spies and go 90-100% jets if you want too.. it takes out so many aspects of the game... you can join gdi and top feed one of the best/fattest players in the game.. and even though you only have 100k turrets and no tanks/troops.. that person can only hit you back once.. and if they hit you back twice or three times to try to get their land back they basically become a sitting duck.... because of gdi they can only hit you back once unless they want to open the door to their country for you while not being able to damage you at all.. in the old days if you hit me for 3k acres and were way smaller than me, all jets with little to no defenses I would farm you and then AB you, take our your missiles and jump my networth as much as I could.. it was a great deterrent to top feeders

St0ny
I think the 50% PS bonus is too much as well.. 10 mil turrets is useless against someone with 5 mil jets and better tech.. seems a little unfair.. maybe 25% bonus would be better?

also I agree with you on the 360/360.. it could be 275/275 or something? I dunno.. some combination of adjustments might help make the game play more as it is intended .. tanks and troops should be important .. gdi shouldn't give you so much power just because someone hits you twice with SS/PS..

I agree with Bizzy.. the one thing about Express is that GDI is terrible and it takes away so much of the game.. I just started playing again recently but I was a diehard e2025 player back in the day.. And in the old days you had to think a little more about attacking .. because you might get smoked by someone with tanks, or missiles.. whereas now.. basically you can 1:1 retal an attack and thats it.. so someone can go all jets and top feed you.. and you can only retal once or you're opening yourself up and making your country defenseless if they then decide to stock turns and smoke you.. you can't properly retal or you become a sitting duck.. and even if you spy and see them stocking and prepping for war you are defenseless basically and so much of the game is removed because of lame gdi rules.. in the old days you could declare war and bypass gdi if you wanted too.. and it was a much better game back in the old days ,... it's still fun enough to mess around a bit while its -30 outside but once golf season starts again i'll be outta here unless gdi changes in express

Nice job, great playing st0ny, I snuck into the top 10 with my first try at Demo Techer.. I was #15

It seems to me this guy wanted Celphi to hit him.... like he was baiting him into a fight, and it looks like fun actually.. I've net gained the last two express sets, top ten last set and hopefully top ten this set as well.. netgaining is getting boring so maybe I'll get in on this fight next set.. lol

Exactly Trumpoz.. well said

Sorry about that.. I've been playing my tourney country quickly and doing all explore so I probably looked like a newb.. understandable

I'm casher again and I had to build 1000 farms.. $50+ food is bad for casher...... also I had to cash turns and buy jets and retal your grab against me bug
