***The (renamed) official Ogame thread***

Finally got a shipyard!

Metal Mine (level 7)
Crystal Mine (level 3)
Deuterium Synthesizer (level 2)
Solar Plant (level 6)

Robotic level 2, were should I go from here, start getting some ships built? Start raiding none defensed places?

I dont even know how to raid lol, best start reading up, Im suprised I havent been attacked yet? 40k Metal sitting around.
 
just finished my first raid got, metal 5618, crystal 5618, duet 3762, not a lot i know but i only have 3 small cargos as yet :D

a bit puzzled by the galaxy screen, if you see (i) next to a player it means that they have been inactive for 2 weeks, but on a few that i have looked at they have also got a time next to there name which i thought was how long since they were last active, so how is possible to have both?

The time is the last time there was fleet activity on the planet (so that could be someone else raiding them, espionaging them etc), after an hour it disappears

cheers, i just want to keep raiding inactives for now till i get stronger. :)
 
never thought id be in this situation but im actually struggling to spend my illgotten gains. 330k/185k/100k and i cant spend ought as im upgrading shipyard and im researching already. and ive got my fleet out on more raids so prolly 500k+/250k+/110k+ ... arghh...

not making myself much of a target am i??? lol.
 
I am wondering if I am using the right tactics, it seems most people tech up to colony ships and then concentrate on getting loads of colonies up and running. I have mostly been concentrating on my main planet to start with and I am a couple of upgrades away from getting battle ships. I only just started my first colony and that is in the next galaxy, while most people seem to colonise their local solar system or systems near by. Or does it not really matter a lot how you do it.

were should I go from here,

you need some small cargo ships

to raid all you do is click your fleet tab, select the number of ships and type you wanna send out, punch in the co-ords (you should have espionaged them first to check... to find targets use your galaxy tab, go for ones which are totally white, dont go for any with green bits next to them, last thing you need at this stage is an alliance on your tail :) --- although the TNG tag should keep you safe for the time being :)

any other Q's or summet your not sure on feel free to ask :/

i had that problem for 2 days while my nanite facotyr was being built

i ended up with 1,000lk metal, 600k crystal, 300k.. then it got nicked :p and my defences battered :p

lol... to add more problems to it i cant store more than 400/300/200 lol.

might just put off the shipyard for now and build a load more battleships. :)
 
I'll be building my nanite factory tonight - luckily I have two other colonies that are at a reasonable level and capable of building battleships etc themselves. I'll be taking any surplus away and raiding from those colonies to allow my homeworld to build the nanite factory without holding up my build queue - plus any excess materials can then be fleetsaved back to homeworld to arrive just as the nanite factory comes online.
 
just a quick one, when using the galaxy screen some of the planets have the letter t next to there number what does it stand for.

hover over it and it tells you how much metal and crystal debris there is floating there

of course crystal is spelt with a K (guess it's german)

you send your recyclers to that debris field and they'll collect it :)

I guess the circular message is only for paid members then cause I don't have the option to do it.
you have to be there a certian length of time first - think it's five days

you can still message individual members, just click the message button next to their name on the members list

It's done by score I think, ensigns can't because it turned into loads of people asking questions

andy i wouldnt even go there, he has a moon which suggest a large fleet and he's an alliance of like 45 members :/


oh i probably didnt probe him first then but i was probing people nearby so maybe his phalanax spotted me.

i always stay away from people with moons for the obvious reasons :(
 
How much damage can I expect an IPBM to do?
My target has these;

Fleets
Defence
Small Laser 25 Heavy Laser 25
Gauss Cannon 1 Ion Cannon 12

Which should I go for?
It would be nice if I could remove the heavy lasers, but 1 IPBM won't take them all out will it?
 
from what i've seen it'll probably knock out 75%-100% of those defences...

give it a wurl... if it doesnt you havnt lost that much really, alternativly get another IPM first, if the first one doesnt do it launch a 2nd soon after !
