i might get that even before to trice i found good town to pillage from and i'll be finished with researching glass

and does anyone need wine i have like 5k to sell

Heh, you wont beat me. You need glass -> Mechanical Pen, Governance -> Bird's flight.
and unless you have stacks of 30k crystal, you'll have to wait some :d

Can someone tell me how to speed up research with crystal?edit

Trice · **Posted:** Sun Jun 22, 2008 2:45 pm

Once you have researched glass, if you click on the academy and scroll to the bottom, it will tell you you can spend a certain amount of crystal immediately jump to the end of the current research. Its about 3k crystal per 12 hours.

If you attack a town or city or whatever it lets you occupy it basically letting you take that town over and make it your own

doesnt do anything yet, but it allows you to research other things, like getting Gyrocopters.

I know. I'm getting it up right now as well. :)

By the way, I have a spy in your base as well. What information do you want to know about your own base?

& you really don't need to waste your spies on me, Gemini. If you want to know something about my base, you can ask me yourself. We're in the same Alliance. It's not like it's classified or anything.

that was a suggestion btw

I took it. I'm upping my walls. :)

I've never been attacked yet, though.

What's your island's luxury resource? (Other than wood).

By the way, I'm skipping Gyros, Trice, and going straight to Gunmen & Steam Giants. I think it's a decent idea, since Steam Giants are about the best land unit that there is.

yea, well what actually trice meant was that in the future revisions/versions of the game one would be able to take over and occupy enemy towns and claim them as your own...right now all you can do is pillage and attack to cripple your enemy's economy and army...

btw, been away for a coupla days and imma wondering what happened to the alliance thread (in all probability imma one of those who didn't read the memo huh?

)...

edit: found it...its just not stickied anymore...hehe...

Just visited my research trees and am now doing the same, theres nothing past Gyros in the science tree that I would want to get before steamies.

Congratulations. :)
Mine is too, but I don't need it to be that big yet. I mean, my population isn't that large. I have a limit of 1420, but only 1164 people in my capital.
I just wanted thew new look that you get once your city hits 16 from the island view, heh.

I think I found a better colony to pillage. It's level 16 with 0 military points.

Singapore 62:6

Tanos on the same island got 1 mil gold sitting around :shock:
