roll call!

[Nagash]

Ill join a guild run by Gili, Killie or Lak!

I want to be part of a European guild, so I can be the guy who shows up at the random hours.

Gili and Lak are both in BAN.

[Lak]

Blue never feels right - gold then red then blue. But hey I like thwarted colour blue at least.

I'll nag killie tomorrow...

[Sikil]

I would be joining... but... um... all I see are options to join Massacre and Classic. May just be a little slow here.

Edit: Nvm, clicked classic and it showed up. Yep, just a little slow

[Kaz]

Massacre and Classic are game 'types'.

Massacre being a zero turn-rate kill of the hill style game, Classic being the standard age-based format.

Last Standing (e.g. LGS) and Challenge (e.g. PVP) would be examples of other game 'types' that are planned for the future.

At the moment we've only currently got a single Massacre style game (Conquest2), we currently have three Classic style games (Domination2, Bloodbath & Guilds).

[Gili]

I was confused to, easily done i know. Anyway found this thread and viola sorted.

I've made the fact that you're looking at collections of games, rather than the games themselves a little easier to tell at a glance

[Lak]

I'm playing conquest... but I had no real idea what I was doing... However, at least it helped remind me of what did what... please though... someone come and kill me (pssst it's easy... I think...)

[Nether]

Thank God there was a leto guild to join. Now all I gotta figure out
is who all these damn people are

[Masta]

Oh Nether, you have broken my heart.

Here I thought you had purposely sought out my guild, for ole times sake

Tis ok, I shall continue to operate under the former dillusion that you did in fact want to play with your old chum again. Anyhow, good to have you Nether, *wave to Naggiei-poo and the rest*, and um, oh yeah, I'm here. So bring your Leto asses to JustBlind before I start giving unguilded numbers to the heathens! (Kidding... maybe )

Oh and if you wish to blame someone for my return, blame Kaz. His PM found its way to my email inbox, and when I saw guilds back up, well I had to come back and piss you all off one last time at least. Ya know, for ole times sake. Now let's party like its 1999.
Yeah, I went there.

[Pistol]

Well looking at the kingdom rankings I clearly need to relearn this game again. I admit I was thick and didnt click classic to find guilds and just assumed the game hadnt started so started late but how paople have such a high percentage build on high acres is beyond me (or rather beyond my limited skills).

You're very sexy in blue, miss Lakkie.

Pistol, the simple answer is build-rate. If you're still in NPP you could load one of the high build-rate saves, if not then the save screen is no longer accessible. Basically towards the end of Canon/Evernight, either the `elite` building strategies just became common knowledge, or everyone left except for people that knew them. I've promoted them publically for years in an attempt to bridge the divide.

I posted a few good tips in this thread.

If you just take one thing from it, it would be to make sure that you're not wasting early turns building structures that you don't need until war comes around. Yes, a BRT heavy strategy is a risk at the beginning. But you're bigger so can hold more troops, and assuming you make it through the first wars, you're suddenly in a very strong building position.

[Ophelia]

Yee-ah! Hi all hehe, nice to meet you.. looking forward to building up, and ya know plundering the dickens out of you in the name of Leto.

[Gili]

That sounds like a confession

[Ophelia]

That sounds like a confession

I admit to nothing! >.>

[Lak]

*makes a note and taps the pencil against the paper*

I won't have it! Your name is in THE BOOK!

[Lady Aria]

Ok ,so I'm back as well.
An old vet starting out as somewhat of a noob again.
Any volunteers to re-train me?

[Gili]

Thats the case with most of us, but it will come flooding back soon enough

[Lak]

I like guessing... that's half the fun!

[Aeyliea]

Play the high turn-rate Bloodbath game. You'll get retrained mightily fast
