Join the Anandtech Alliance lol. God that sounds lame. Either way, it'll be a good way to while away the hours at work. Apparently it starts off a bit dull (it takes a while to build stuff/get resources) but gets better later on. I'm still in the building stuff phase at the moment 🙁

We have 154 members so far! If you want to join, register in Universe 13, and then search for alliance tag AT. We're 68th of the alliances on points, but we started at 580th, and aren't even two weeks old yet. We already have the most members (although whether they're all active at the moment we don't know...)

******* Anandtech Alliance is in UNIVERSE 13 *******

As of last server update, we're at 68th points wise, 35th by fleet number, 6th by reseach level, and 1st by member numbers! About 3 or 4 ahead of the next biggest, and then about 50 ahead of third place.


And yeah, it is slow to get going. Once some more of us get up to thousands of points, we may be more willing to through free resources at new members to help out.... 😀

I signed up.. now lemme go figure this game out

 

[letdown427]

If you check the thread in the OP, there's snippets of advice near the end. Basically, go for metal, solar, metal metal, solar, crystal, etc

ignore deuterium for a while.

I can't find the Anandtech Alliance in Universe 13. I'm registered. Username is Distemper. I tried searching alliances for "Anandtech" and "Anandtech Alliance" and nothing returns.

This game is remarkably similar to Planetarion.

Is there a [age with General Instructions somewhere? I didn't see an FAQ or anything that tells the general purpose and how to play. I can just click Build and such but would like to know what I'm doing first. heh.

Read both threads. Everything is explained thoroughly.

Somebody spare me some metal so I can finish Turkish's suggestion? The bolded part is what I'm waiting for. I don't seem to make enough metal fast enough 😛

Here's the recommended build order:

M is for Metal, K is for Crystal, D is for Deterium and S is for Solar Plant:

S1 M1 M2 S2 M3 M4 S3 K1 K2 S4 M5 D1 S5 M6 K3 S6 D2 D3 S7 K5 D4 S8 D5

Woot! I found the thread in software yesterday and have been playing.

It was like Christmas when I woke up this morning with lots o' resources under the tree!

 

[DaTT]

Can you give resources to people in your alliance?

 

[DaTT]

I also have a wedding to go to soon, therefore when I return home...I should have lots of resources to play with. 🙂
