trep, you can only have 3 standing orders for bushels (or any good type) at a time.

So I just have to cross my fingers and hope that when my SO is at the front of the line, I'm the guy who randomly stumbles upon 40 million bushels coming on instead of 20,000? I guess I had thought these could be used more strategically, and didn't rely on luck like that.

It was my understanding that when multiple standing orders are up at the same price, goods were sold to the oldest standing order first, until that standing order has either been met or the buying country runs out of cash on hand (reference: http://wiki.earthempires.com/...ic_Market#Standing_Orders). It doesn't seem to be working that way in game, so I'm curious as to how it really does work.

I have a standing order up to buy bushels at $36, and earlier today it was triggered and I purchased around 9 million bushels.

23.5 mins ago
You purchased 9,235,453 Bushels at $36 for $332,476,308 via standing order.
50,764,547 Bushels remain in your order.

Minutes later, somebody else purchases 15 million bushels at $36.

18.1m ago 15,880,299 Bushels bought for $36
25.1m ago 9,235,453 Bushels bought for $36

Since my Standing Order was activated once, I would think that my SO was the oldest and I am first in line to buy bushels at $36. How did somebody leapfrog me and purchase at $36 instead of my SO grabbing them again? I had plenty of cash on hand, so that isn't an issue.

You don't need to understand the entire Elder Scrolls universe to enjoy the game. The Oblivion crisis is mentioned in passing, and the rest can be learned as you play the game. The main plot isn't hard to understand at all. If people really want to know about the entire ES universe, that is why you can read the books in the game.

A 2 man suicider tag is not an alliance. For all intents and purposes, they are the equivalent of untagged.

Braden, I've never played an Elder Scrolls game prior to Skyrim and am enjoying it very much. The story is self contained and requires no knowledge of the other games. I've noticed references to stuff that probably happened in the other games, and found it fun trying to piece together what happened =)

KKK, sorry, but I refuse to answer your questions because you used the expression "could care less", which I consider an unforgivable sin.

I agree with Duna. The way spying out a country currently works is a little too much. People should have spies to protect themselves from spy ops in the same way they need tanks to protect themselves from ABs.

Running next to no spies and then getting saved because you become immune after ~25 spy ops is silly.

Marshal is correct, but that is more a fault of the pacting system in Alliance than a game mechanics issue.

Oh, I think I get what you mean in this context. Players/alliances should not feel that Game developers/admins are out to get them. I agree with that.

What I've seen in this past couple weeks has been over the top, and not just making opinions opposing politics.

While I'm against personal attacks, what is wrong with conspiracy theories? Given the importance of secret coalitions, political manuevering, and everything RD (the secret identities and alliance infiltration thing may have been cool if not for the rampant cheating), I'd say conspiracies have been an integral part of Earth's history and what makes it interesting. Conspiracies in this game are real and fun. Sometimes, people really are out to get you.

I'm not sure you know what a suicider is. Suiciding is taking an action that you know will result in having your country killed, like a solo country ABing/missiling an alliance.

Going all jetter and taking retals is not suiciding.

Only being able to start 2 RB is the only way BearsFan doesn't dominate this league with McFadden, Turner, and McCoy.

And Chupacabra needs to trade away a QB to get a better RB1.

Just curious, but how many teams are in the league? 10?

Martian, I've never played on those servers on EE, and am not sure what constitutes collusion. Can I Def/Research ally up with people I know from 1A? If somebody triple taps me, can I ask my ingame allies for help with a kill run? Can I ask people who are not my ingame allies for assistance?

I didn't know this collusion rules existed, and think I've probably crossed the line a few times in Express without knowing it.

What level of coordination is allowed between in game allies? I know its an individual server, but I don't know where to find what the limitations are. Obviously it shouldn't be turned into an alliance server, but if my defensive ally is getting farmed, I can help him wage a war, yes?
