it can be fairly crippling but you have to really unload a ton of GS strikes on him until the population is really gutted. just a few will actually be counter productive as diminishing returns will kick in and other people can't grab him for like 6 hours or whatever (if that's the way it still works)

10%/90% for the first half of your turns (spies / jets) 20%/80% for the second half (tanks / turrets).

I like the idea of starting as an industrialist and doing a bunch of grabbing w/o building on all of it and building cs and then switching to techer.

does anyone else suspect it is important to keep population constantly growing with a standard farmer start up in order to raise maximal tax revenues?

what about when you recall food from the market? can your people eat it immediately or do they have to wait until the third day to feast (muslims?)

I am ruritania on all servrrs I just think punks who can't take a grab are whiny fluffes. This game is all about shooting for #1 not throwing a hissy fit whenever someone grabs you.

P.s. who the fluff tried to grab me in xpress? I'm a mb reseller. I don't even use turns. I'm probably the absolute worst target on the server. The guys above and below me have 2x as much land. Decision making folks. Maybe retal from tourney?

A particular dubious debating tactic is to build up a strawman - that is to falsely attribute to your opponent a position - and then to hack away at it. Such was the case with Keynes's 'restating' of Saye's law, that supply creates demand. This not what Saye was saying. What saye was really saying was that supply of x constitutes demand for y. and you see this in Earth. if you have a bunch of bushels, and you sell them, you are going to use this revenue to buy other stuff. A supply of bushels constitutes a demand for troops, or turrets, or tech, or oil. This is why there is no such thing as a 'general glut'.

One lesson the anti-communist right never internalized was that communism was doomed to failure. It didn't need to bed defeated. It was self defeating.

john birch society are good people; one of the last remnants of the old right, isolationist, anti-government intervention both domestically and abroad, anti-communist, pro liberty and pro free markets.

Selling the troops out of the gate makes sense. Does anyone keep them? What about waiting @ turn 99. This might be more advantageous in express. How many CS are optimal and in what order do you get them? Do you build farms, industrial, res / ent or other?

I think as a techer it is key to drop 1 or 2 acres sometimes when you are about to batch tech. Anyway back to the original topic I wonder if techer should aim for a slightly lower CS style in order to maximize TPT. i.e. if an indy would aim for 45 BPT techer might aim for 40 or 38.

Which brought me to the subject of catostrophic errors, in the broader context of life. How can they be prevented in situations where more is on the line than the fate of an imaginary country?

I decided I was very clever and instead of landgrabbing I would do a combination of explore / destroy and build as I had over grabbed some research labs.

My destroy 40 / research labs somehow got changed to destroy 40 / cs.

Looks like ya'll get a handicap for this round.

I don't care for dogs personally I'm not a dog person but I am against the idea of a 'pit bull' ban. You have a few incidents, the media sensationalizes it and then the whole picture is twisted out of proportion.
