Either that's a war brewing, or its been set up to shoot for a record. Looks like he dropped the empty land and just kept the free indies.

Oh my mistake~ I counted his PS on the 16th as well.

That's true Primary style LATC. In the old 1B it could just as easily been missiles all day if you hit someone once. It's however you want to defend yourself as per your own rules. And you can't expect anyone to follow someone elses rules, gotta be ready for anything.

I accept the risk that comes with bottom feeding... Eventually it might catch up and bite me in the ass, like it did this set several times. Sometimes it don't.

I wasn't making an argument about 72 hour retal windows or anything else Serp. I was just saying, like everyone else is, that 184 hit 186 because of 186's hit earlier in the set, and so I called it a retal. Jeez, can you people please read my posts for what they say instead of constantly going on rants about why you disagree with me on another topic?

Eff you, I want to net too, but you hit me first.
If you can take the retal and you don't and you intentionally wait for a long time to get more land that's just you being a weasel, and if they hit you back you can't complain.

attacks like that are strictly sabotage. There is nothing for the attacker to gain and it'll cost 5m+ NW to rebuild the acres the attacker will lose on the retal.


Rebuild costs are about $250-300 million, not that bad I think and the cost of jets and oil were less than if I had to bottomfeed those 5k acres. And targets are getting scarce leading to me to bottomfeed targets that can potentially retal like one already did. I know that mathematically or cost-wise it makes more sense to bottomfeed but the lack of targets made me try out this topfeeding thing.
Am I a total fluffhead for topfeeding someone who's having such an amazing set? Well.. yes, I won't deny that. But it wasn't done to sabotage, it was done to benefit myself.


Oh yes, I can now see the wisdom in your words. That really benefited you. Every set the same thing, people never learn. Didn't think through all the consequences, didja?

This is why it is always a good idea to pay attention to the names people choose. With a name like that I didn't imagine this going any other way.

I hate this "Retal" argument. So you're saying that if you PS someone and they don't PS you back within 72 hrs or so that they aren't allowed to PS your country for the remainder of the set? You instigate and expect them to respect that? You have no tag protecting you, and hitting them twice is enough of a disrespect to warrant what you get in return.

Each country is allowed to hit each other once per set under the GDI rules without letting yourself get f'd up. There's no rule stating that if you hit him early that he can't hit you late if you are a viable target. If you're in GDI then follow GDI rules not Alliance server rules.

This is coming from one of the biggest LGers on the server remember.


Each person can enforce his own retal rules.


This this this this this. And let's stop moralizing about what rules are right or wrong. Come up with retal rules you like and enforce them.

BTW I didn't hit back LATC this set b/c there was nothing to hit back. He has a crappy country that won't finish well at all, and based on his posts it was clear that he would be happier warring me then trying to net. Enforcement in this case is letting everyone see him attempt to net instead of wasting my own set warring. But if you ahve a well run country trying to finish well and you don't want to fight me, GL trying to get a retal in on me past a certain window...

Yep, Narcissistic seems to be a player who doesn't want to eat someone's crap. He's having a very good set and someone he hasn't attacked decides to hit him and tarnish it, knowing full well the hit will be retaled, but attacking just the same to profit from all the grabs Narcissistic has busted his ass all set making. The top feeder is assuming he can coerce a better player into getting screwed in the land exchange because he thinks the person will be afraid of breaking GDI rules and will just take the loss. It seems he thought wrong and picked a fight with the wrong guy.

Oh absolutely. I'll take a retal when I can, but if I have the cash on hand and I can buy up to 95% before I make the retal that day then I will. And no, I wouldn't complain if they hit me back after, that's what the missiles/tanks are for.

Like my hit today, I op'ed him yesterday because he was an ally of a guy I hit yesterday. He had 1/2 the turrets I have and around the same NW. Does it make me a weasel for being opportunistic for retaling after seeing that op yesterday?

He didn't keep all the land though. He was 74k land before the 3x hits today. He grabbed 12,745 but his land only went up by 8k. So he dropped around 4,000 land.

This old country didn't exactly obey the rules of GDI. Retals and ROR's are and will always be part of Primary. As will the missiles that sometimes follow. But sometimes a great set is worth the risk of those missiles I guess.

Oh he hit me a few weeks back. But I wasn't planning on retalling it because of the ops I got previously. But then I saw the op yesterday and noticed he was low in turrets. And then when I logged on today he was close to me in NW so I bought up some NW to be 95% of him. So I didn't intentionally wait to do the retal, but jumped on the opportunity when I saw the low D count. Does that make it a fluff move?

Na, this isn't a fluff move. Any retal regardless of how late isn't a fluff move. A topfeed for no reason I consider a fluff move though. I myself have waited so long to 'retal' sometimes to the point that it just becomes another bottom feed.

Laughter has a great chance at breaking the previous NW record of 165M. But that will depend on food, and I'm already surprised food seems to actually be moving up a bit.

Gotcha. Yeah, blid taught me not to topfeed a few sets ago when I started playing for real.

And Bobby, yes you're right, I would go to war in a second to defend my right to retal when I want regardless of how high I could finish. And like I said before, I was trying out a crazy strat that looked semi-promising on paper.

That's the point. Neither party can complain. You chose to PS someone, deal with the consequences. You chose to "Retal late" deal with The consiquences. You chose to hit twice and leave yourself open, deal with the consequences. You chose to not join gdi and have no sdi or tanks...

Just don't think that everyone else should play like you want them to, because they won't and you'll only upset yourself if you expect them to.

Anyways enough on that crap again ... There's more important stuff to talk about here. :-P

4 cashers, 4 commies, 2 farmers.


Too many crappy Techers playing this set who don't know how to price their goods correctly. Tech prices goes by the thousands.. You do not have to undercut the person in front of you by $200 a day just to sell out moments after it hits the market..

He had a lot of land because he had one of the best countries. His defense was not poor. Just because a top 20 country can break him with 15m jets on PS doesn't make his defense poor. You could have broken anyone in the game. He "gained land on the original exchange." Yeah, I'm sure he was real happy gaining 1000 land (less than he gains on a typical day) and having 6291 acres to rebuild, that only costs $1.3b, what a deal for him. If he had hit you back a second time but no more, I wonder if you'd have allowed it. It would've been undoubtedly fair. But I guess he figured if he's gonna break GDI he may as well go all in. It's a shame bomb buildings is completely broken.

I don't know if he really killed 20k buildings, but the dynamics are totally fluffed. Bomb structures, espionage, bomb banks are all way too easy to get through for the amount of damage they do.

It was brought to the admins attention over and over again that not only had they made ABs useless in Primary with the latest change, but the damage they do in proportion to bomb structures was entirely out of whack. They didn't care because this isn't Alliance.

its not a perfect equation but if you look at the NW that Narcissistic dropped and divide by $35NW/building it comes up to about 30,000k total buildings destroyed. After Narcissistic fights back the turret/jet supply will have diminished by up to 60k buildings. That could change things a couple days from now.

Well he should already have roughly 25,590 empty land based on his captured acres from his last attacks and the chems. If he has 35,000 empty acres now I'd say bomb structures only got 10,000 of them.

Well, I dont grab others because its a good deal for them blid. With the GDI rules and the way spyops are I made the bet he wasn't going to risk his set over it. I thought wrong and look stupid in the process. I'll file this one under failed experiments.
If he had done only one more retal the threat of war would have been bluff.

I do agree spyops are totally broken. The first spyops destroyed over 1k buildings each.

He build up quite a bit after doing those extra retals blid. Bomb structures really is that overpowered.

It depends on building types tho, which is kinda strange. If you have the same buildings as your opponents it does a lot more damage than if you have different buildings.

Nerfing bomb buildings and leaving ABs the same would be dumb.

In the B&S thread I made I suggested they return ABs and special attacks to the old formulas as well

1,000 buildings destroyed per bomb structures, compared to 2780 buildings per CM. Considering a CM takes 2 turns to attack and at best can only be acquired once every 50 turns (if you are teched in warfare), I would say bomb structures not only replaces the need for tanks but it even surpasses the effectiveness of warefare tech it seems.

Should probably spam post this on every solo server board to get as much attention to it as we can. Like Slag said, the developers don't play the solo servers. The only way they will get the hint is if we voice our opinions as loud as we can!
Other than Earth Empires I also play Battlefield games:
