Oh OK . I just meant do you attack a computer opponent.  PvP stuff opens the door to to much cheating.

God Halo 2 has ruined my online experience.

No cheating in this game. It's really a simple game to pick up. And a very straightforward program (6th iteration). It seems to me that they've cleaned up any bugs they may have had...

[Mezmoron]

I restarted because I didn't know what I was doing...

Hopefully I'm doing better now.

Yea this game is pretty impossible to cheat in.
Since it is browser based and the whole site is java(or flash?).
The closest thing to cheating has been a single clan(The Apostles) dominating the top 10 and much of the front page at one point. There are generally 2-4 big clans that fight back and forth on the few pages.
The second closest thing was ALOT of people got pissed off at a guy who joined payed for a gold account and then payed for a bunch of ingame money. They were pissed because he "ruined the game". When i pointed out he allso essentially payed for a few month of server time people seemed to chill out about it.

They are fix any kind of bug or mistake that comes up VERY quickly.
And if it effects a persons money there is a spot were you can withdraw it to recoup your loss.

I was asked my buddy and he said i could invite you all.
They are a more serious and competitive clan.
As for the RFGen clan lets just see how my buddies clan works out for us.
If other members are taking it too seriously (which has not happened in the past) i will break off for sure.

During round 3 or 4 i was helping essentially the same group of people organize bomb strikes against The Apostles with the help of the 2 other major clans.
This was to the minute percision across a few time zones so that the bombs would go off in certain guys bases at certain intervals.(One guy people even had a members online activity figured out for the perfect plant time)


And to top off the long winded and probably mostly unnecesasary post,
if you need some help don't hesitate to ask Ken.
I am on AIM, MSN, and also YIM(thanks to phoenix).

[Izret101]

Added a little help/faq section to the first post.
Probably should have done it earlier.
It would have helped some of you out more
My bad :-/

It would be really cool to see more people get into it
Interacting with more members from the site is cool.
Also i should have sent out clan invites to everyone who has signed up below me already.
Except scoops.
Since he has a clan. If you want in with the rest of us scoops just get ahold of me

Get the oil facility upgrades while you can!

Upgrading my Village cost me something like 9 grand to go up the two times today. I probably could have done some more effective building upgrades...
But at least this boosts defense

[phoenix1967]

would you recommend gettting the next oil facility upgrade ($12K) or upgrate my fortification to a palace ($9K) first?

[Izret101]

If you can get the money fast enough definately the oil facility.
If you think it will take too long or think you might get hit just upgrade to a Palace

[phoenix1967]

Getting the money to do a significant upgrade is getting tougher and tougher. During the day, I can't access my game at work, so I'm getting sniped (although I'm getting experience). And when I get home there's always a few players within range of me that could snipe me and take my $$$ when I'm attacking someone else!

[Izret101]

Since i have been out of school since i started back up i have been lucky.
I check it many times a day and see how many players are online within atack range of me.
When i am going to sleep i move all my guys on defense.

Also something i usually didn't bother to do before i am doing now.
Using agents to see a possible targets # of heroes and such.
I got lucky today though and i hit a guy for roughly 10k when he was still attacking people.
I left him with around 2.5k

edit:
Oh yea my buddy finyno11 quit the game. Sometime in the last 24hours.
Though he could have started a new account.
I must not have been the only person he was getting hit by daily.
