Vic's RD thread made me realize we didn't have a Primary discussion thread here yet. :P Just wondering, do you guys think the dicts have a shot at the win? I think we can count out farmers and techers so that just leaves the dict cashers and commies. I think a dict casher does have a chance to win.

Also are the Express tier one players involved in Primary this set? I myself, of course, have a country there, wondering about some others.

lol this IS funny and there's nothing wrong with it.
however this is a little less relevant than my RD thread, blid, as there was no degeneration of the game changes thread into primary server talk :p

but hey, if it brings more eyes to express forum, and potentially more activity and players - that's a plus!

It's designed to bring express players to primary and to give us primary input from the "Express Krew"

How can a Dict Commie win. You generate less units so therefore you get less cash/acre.

You would need 35% more land than a Commie.

Also a Dict Casher is worse than a Dict Farmer because of the multiplicative layers of Net Income vs Expenses.

That means a Dict Farmer or Techer (ugh) is better than a Dict Casher :P.

Dict casher might be "worse" than dict farmer in a vacuum, but what about in a really good casher set? On a server where casher is generally pretty powerful? Because say what you will, dict cashers are dominating this reset:
http://www.earthempires.com/primary/ranks

I was talking about Dictators and Commies, btw. Those are different gov types, they don't combine unless you're converting or something. But the Is and the Cs are the ones with a chance to win this reset imo.

I don't remember the stuff you just made up but I do remember when he won with that 34m or whatever it was score, and I was like Holy crap, who's this guy? It was a very impressive round and made his name on the scene in a big way.

Guys, there is no such thing asa dictator commie. It is impossible, I think you were trying to be smart with words, didn't work though. Try dict indy.

How is everyone doing? I think TDA may have self-deleted a commie country, and I think Getafix got in a war with Bibigon and suffered a few grabs.

i would not play primary. 1A is enough for me anyway. The only reason i am here in express is it ends fast and smooth. You can play 3 days only and improve your gaming. I would not put into my life 1 extra month of EE ( or whatever time primary takes ).

Primary is 2 months! But only 10 minutes per day, way less demanding than Express

I figured that, but I don't know where/what that is. It probably doesn't work if it has you bouncing 4 hits in a row, though. That or you're using it wrong.

Maybe conservative means the low end estimate you can send if the pang factor goes your way

more bonus's, cheaper tech, more land grab targets, more food on the market

<~qzjul> it gives you a good introduction to orbital mechanics and a good appreciation for how central delta-V is and thrust to weight ratio
<RaTSFYA>The only thrust to weight ratio I'm worried about involves the women I pick up at bars

spread the words I want to have a beast commie next set and I need to attack lots of noobs if possible. Some come one come all If you are looking for a challenge to see how many times you can be hit and how good you can finish come on over. If you want a new challenge and can contend come on over. Primary you can play 20 minutes a day. Half that if you want. And given the right direction of your people you can contend with 10 minutes a day.
