well, decided late to join primary...not sure why I didn't join earlier, it's not like I have anything better to do.

Next minute, someone nukes me grabs 17 acres, chem missile, grabs 16 acres...should have trusted my instincts to have a break.

Good luck all!

I always take the free GDI points, just seemed a good thing to do at the start when a few turns didn't seem to matter. I like teching as well, so the booms don't help..or do they?

so yeah, what is the strategy when someone does that? Obviously you're not strong enough right now to kill him off (or maybe you are). One of my allies got nailed by him too.

Well, I snuck into top 10 with my strategy of being scared to attack people as the anger runs deep in this game.

Worked this round, let's see if it does next one.

Also Ko, how do you drop your land like that??

Was trying to see how I fared but wasn't around for the end. I see I didn't make top 25%, as didn't make Game A...got to learn how to jump I guess.

Is there a link somewhere I have missed to see results for last set??

Here's a question. Playing my first set, and I'm wondering if I should switch out of teching as I've seen people mentioning they are cashing. Seems a lot of expense though? I won't, but interesting. Or do people keep buying tech right through?

If you don't, you should, it's good stuff.

I'm pretty new here, but I am very much realizing how mad people get when you double tap. I kind of find it funny how bezerk people go when someone grabs them twice...how dare you attack me twice, here take 50 missiles!

Much easier to find targets now I know about this eestats thing though, handy! Now no hurt feelings or dead boardb countries, yay!

oh no, sorry I meant this reset has been going for ages. only just got allies really, so sure you're correct....as mentioned, super impatient...maybe I should do the express again, but then that was the opposite.

Hey guys, so getting into this thing again...finally understanding the "world view" of things, but wondering how to tell if my tech buddies are any good. I feel they are storing turns, but you can't see their building types to gauge and I'm terribly impatient. Guess I'll just be patient and hope they give me some stuff soon.

Not all, thank you to the amazing tech buddies I do have that are working hard for me :)

Certainly won't be double grabbing folks anymore, now that I learnt to read. I feel the fun for me in this game is to try not to be super fat on the land, I wouldn't have thought it would be that hard to have lots of land? Just attack weak countries that can't retal you and be a commie or casher. I would rather do the unskillful find targets that I can attack and gain a lot of land for...then lose hopefully less in the retal trick (although have noticed people retal quite late in the piece and so it's hard to remember if it's a retal or not as it's not in the news).

I'm enjoying playing the game again though, this is my first go at Primary so we shall see if I need to totally change strategy.

logical, in that the reason why I hit these people as they have LOADS of land and I figured that since they hit me then we are "even".

Logically, you would attack people with lots of land right?

Man, I am only just realizing how bad it is in this game to attack someone twice...I also didn't read the GDI thing so yeah, not smart over here. In my mind, I hit you, you hit me, I hit you so etc. just seemed logically the thing to do. It's not fyi. I also didn't realize there were bots.

Learning fast though with my multiple spankings though, so thank you Earth world for your learnings.

As posted recently, just returning to the game...doing the express again to try and work out the game again.

Is this pretty typical of Express, in terms of retal?

Just getting back into this game after 20 years off, still fun and I see still much banter going on.

Was having a great time until somebody decided to launch 30 missiles at me, oh well. Guess that will teach me for not investing in SDI, here was me thinking if you didn't be a *$%@ to other people then they wouldn't to you.

Live and learn.

Congrats to all!
