And another now :eek: im just glad i spent a lot on defence before i came out of noob protection, it should keep most away,
useing speedsim i think i would have got a draw after 6 rounds from the first one, would have made it a bit pointless.
time to start building more cargos and keeping the res off planet.

Good plan. Then, get yourself an attacking fleet and make sure everyone around you hates you :D
 
Well, I have just done my first proper attack.

I gained:
161724 Metal, 88551 Crystal and 82558 Deuterium
using about 30 attack ships and 20 cargo ships.

I have been carefully avoiding any fights until now, just picking on those with none or minimal defenses. Still, I want to research all the important tech's before starting a large army.

But anyway:

Do people use bombers? Do people just build Battleships? Are Destroyers worth the effort? I need some advice before I start on an army.

bombers make mincemeat of planetary defences, you don't need many to make an incredible difference, and the hyperspace engine research is not out of your way if you are aiming for destroyers
 
I have a few destroyers, they kick ass. They are incredibly expensive, eat loads of fuel, but I love the idea of having less ships and still pwning, so it really is up to you :)

Bombers are decent enough, but I've only got 15, whereas I've got 50 Destroyers. Destroyers are expensive, and marginally faster, but they kick much ass, and are very cool as well :)
 
Up to 3500 points now and growing pretty quick. I've got Hyperspace Engines 4 on the go, about 20 hours left, then its one more Computer Tech and nanite should be on the way, and eventually battleships. How much does Nanite lvl 1 cost? My storages have overflowed, I've got like 2 mil of everything after a pretty successful chain inactives raiding the past 2 nights.
 
Nanite level 1 = 1mil metal, 500k crystal and 100k deuterium

Edit: And if you've got 2mil deuterium, trade it, you'll get tons of metal and crystal for that, you'd have a canny fleet in no time.
 
Right... So i've managed to manage my power and i've been building more power stations and putting certain resources down 10% or more.

I've thought that I might just go for a lot of resources at the start, so basically to keep building metal mines and so on. But i've also thought about attacking but can't see how to.

I've got 15 Light Fighters at the moment, so maybe I could just attack people with nothing?

I've also heard about probing planets and such? I can't work it out :o

Metal Mine (level 14)
Crystal Mine (level 9)
Deuterium Synthesizer (level 8)
Solar Plant (level 13)
Solar Satellite (quantity 1)

I'm managing to understand the resources and what to do and such, just still not clear on the attacking part. Anyone? :)

Thanks, Sinque.org.
 
To attack people, you simply need to send ships to their co-ordinates, and select the attacking option.

To probe people, you need to build some espionage probes first. Click on the technology link on the left of Ogame and you'll see what you need for various ships and defence, including probes.

So what kind of information do I need to know? Their co-ordinates obviously. Defence, ships, resources and so on? This is all found out by probes, yes?

Spot on. All that can be found out via probes. Sign up to the alliance forum and read the sticky in there by Fizz, it's got lots of useful information.

Too slow ;)

Paramount, it takes 2 days 6h 32m 43s to build, and will cut ships/defence/building time in half.

Well I almost typed in 16 million metal, 8 million crystal, and 1.6 million deuterium and realised my mistake so that made me late. There's my excuse :p
