murdering hurts me much more
I agree murder is really annoying when your indying cause your troops are your money supply and if they get killed you have to spend lots of runs recovering
Watching people fight is fun...
...but getting involved is so much better

I concur...
I dont understand why everyone gets so upset over part of the game... sure its annoying... but if the game was super easy, would it be any fun?

Okey well you've misinterpreted me then i suppose.

What i'm saying is not that yes, we're ALL capable of murdering somebody without leaders. But it is a bad move, because you will be battered in retourn. Just as we're all capable of attacking people when they're online. In the end, it works out poorly for both of you.

Now i just got murdered 75 times by shadow (thats NOT approximate, he seriously murdered me 75 times at once!) and he has no justification. This has hurt me - sure - but when i'm finished it will have hurt him much more, and this is why murdering is NOT something you do lightly!

Well peace did spend a great many turns chaosing my army into nothing, so those murders were retal, no matter what i did at the start of the set

Oof that hurt. Guess i deserved it...

Was kind of surprised by the number of people who joined in. I guess I won't post a city stealing guide after all? :-D

You should probably be aware that it was not personal... you were close to the top and I took your net down. It's what I do. Cody agreed to help over msn, I was a little disappointed that he not only didn't help, he tried to steal my city.

Some interesting facts about Shadows attack:

75 murders take 300 turns including health...

300 turns and it wasn't personal?

Thats a burn of 300 turns to kill off less then 13% of my total army (so about 10% of my nw)

He could have taken my land which would have taken 15-30% of my NW.

and could have used the extra turns and the land to produce MUCH more then 10% my NW.


I find it kinda funny now, I shouldn't have gotten so mad because what you were doing was entirely self-destructive, hah!

Shadow

It was mostly retal for killing 90% of my army the previous day...

75 murders at shields up kills closer to 60% of your amy unless I have the math seriously wrong

Whoops, i accidentally calculated for that 21 attacks.

And i can't figure out how to make a precice calculation of it. I know it isn't 60%, because i only lost about 400 mil NW and thats uncluding (i claim that word) the hundred or so other attacks i withstood.

You would have benefited MUCH more if you had taken land and used it for NW. Not to mention you wouldn't have me whomping you for the next few days.

if you are going to chaos away my army then be ready for retaliation. If you continue to harass me i will simply unclan and have my way with your army through open attack op. An indier cannot win vs a leader fighter short of a fast kill.

for exact numbers use the formula y=a0.99^x, where a=the amount of troops you started with and x=number of suicides

you started with 220million rats, so...

y=220,000,000(0.99)^75
y=103,529,061

103529061/220000000*100=47% of your army remaining

without shields, the multiplier becomes 0.97. without shields, it would have looked like this:

y=220,000,000(0.97)^75
y=22,402,823

22402823/220,000,000*100=11% of your army remaining

Be glad you had shields up :-D

Peace Alliance

I had much more then 47% of my army left. Much more.

Shadow

IIRC you started with 220 million and i left you with 90 million rats. you started with 60mil stoat and i left you with about 25mil

id say my numbers are pretty accurate
