I have never been ripped off a deal, and even felt kind of bad when I was a day or two late when I missed my shipment to them! My neighbors are all good, here are some names.

Names:

MileySmith
RomaDragon
Cobait
Bllama
Chachi4halo

Plenty more around me, but don't feel like naming them all...

My coordinates: [22,35]

Also, I just got attacked on my new settlement (22:34) by a man by Eurofanes. He is part of the H-B alliance, and he pillaged my new settlement 3 times, reaping about 2k lumber, 400 gold, and about 100 sulfur/marble. I don't know if i should put this here or somewhere else.

Thats crazy Kulmar, just pack your things and come move to 10:1 this is a safe heaven for all.

You'll have that. Make sure you've at least got a decent wall on a line of defense for it. Warehouses also help lessen the loss to pillagers as well.

**KillDaddy** · 03-18-2008, 01:03 PM

i only lost 22 wood, but dang. now I got a breach in my wall and can't upgrade till I get marble... I can't even mine sulfur yet. sheesh

The guy that pillaged you is a dumbass. It's double upkeep for him to send his guys out.

The ultimate warehouse is to shift resources back and forth from your colonies or to send them to far flung places and recall them.

true, just send them to the end of the world and then recall them

Careful sending and recalling; a blockade intercepting your fleet will take all of your resources.

Another great trader is Razzor, he's constantly been selling wine at 10g each. It sells fast too. Now that I've colonized on his wine island, he's been more than willing to trade with me for my sulfur, he even sent his wine first.

Razzor - Vox Eternus | Alduos [46:50]

Good marble trader: Hueckmister-2 | Laseios[74:51]

He sent me 300 marble before I was able to return a shipment to him. I plan to have an ongoing trade route with him.

Good Sulfur trader: peterF | GH economy [29:24]

Asked him last night if he wanted to trade sulfur for marble 1:1 in the morning a shipment of 720 sulfur arrived.

We not in your area, for the most part (clustered in the 50:50ish area), but if you ever find yourself in a trade with a Farker and get hosed, I'll raid whoever it was myself to get you back the goods. First dude we clobbered (congor, no alliance) had made a habit of offering 1:1 trades and bailing with the goods. We're still riding him, a week and a half later.
