Space Centres (this is a good one!) (White Giant)

Hi all,

For those who haven't experiemented with space centres yet: space centres are awesome!

If you haven't bought a space centre in every country yet, the first thing to do is to turn on war protection in every country. Immediately. (I'm serious: if you're still reading and you haven't done it yet, go do it now. The rest of this thread can wait.)

Second step is to go to Space Program -> Country Space Centres -> build a space centre. You only need one per country - I'd go for an immediate purchase because they're cheap and they take about a game month to come online.

Why will you want one? For starters, weapons stored in the space centre require no staffing, fuel, training ammo etc. Unlike an enterprise, however, there are no spending limits on how much you can transfer in and out.

Okay, so that's the only reason ... but war is awesome now!!! You're no longer limited by your country's income or population. You can keep your whole military (absolutely everything) in a space centre and pay nothing but the upkeep on forts and bases; when you go to war, you take weapons out as needed, and if you lose them you just take out more. Your only limits are your RL income (determines GC -> game cash -> number of weapons you can buy) and your ability to be at your keyboard when a war starts.

It's just like real life now! The sooner you get one, the sooner you'll thank me for posting about it here. Have fun!

Don't you have some pipe dream to follow somewhere in 2011?

You mean flowing... full speed.

I didn't think I said anything to you.

Must be a heavy flow. Do you always get symptoms when your friend pays you a visit?

Like I said, I don't think I said anything to YOU

You came on this thread and said something negative and derogatory to me without provocation.

Maybe it is YOU that just can't stop. I don't have to take your bs. Period.

Go find some traffic to play in little boy.

LOL. That made me laugh.

It was without provocation, but as I said, everytime I look on the forum, you are being an ass to someone.

And you said "period". LOL!

So? Problem?

When you make your own game you won't have to worry about it.

In the meantime you are free to try evony or cybernations or your local freeway.

Actually I never used the Space Center as a storage for military assets since I am in the process of getting rid of my assets, but I know many friends that will be disappointed if and when this sound economic advice gets changed.

You see Wendy...if you weren't such an a$$ to everybody as Doublestar points out, then you would know this information already and would be able to benefit from it for the short duration that it is around. I learned about it a month or two ago and have been told by several friends since then...you see friends pass helpful game info along and if you don't have any friends, then like all noobs and asshats you are the last to know about the game tips.

In case you still are struggling to figure this out...online community based games are about building relationships...and the more positive ones you have the better your success in game.

I'm sure you haven't used the space station. But loopholes are closing in on every side for you. That is why you are selling off.

Loopholes are loopholes, not tips.

I don't care for loopholes because I am not that fanatical about having an edge on someone in an online game where I need to find loopholes and exploits.

There are no friends here, there are cool people and not so kewl people, and then whiners like you and flametards like dubletart.

I won't lose a wink over any of you, friend or foe.

Find some traffic dubletar, and find some inner purpose zeb00b, now that you don't have a fed to lead, or an empire to maintain, find something better to do if you can.

fighting from only c3s is the biggest loop hole in the game, jeese...

errr, ok that isn't a loophole. c3s are countries like every other country. Sorry it doesn't have enough value for you to need to exploit real loopholes in order to capture it. Or rather, not sorry.

Fighting from c3s with nothing on the line is a loophole. And for this war engine to be fixed, needs to eliminate that.

"you see friends pass helpful game info along and if you don't have any friends, then like all noobs and asshats you are the last to know about the game tips."

Actually Zeba, Wendy is not a not a noob, and I don't think she's an asshat. She's not thanking me for telling her - she's thanking me for telling everyone. Say whatever you want about her: she's fair, and from what I've seen your friends have earned every insult she's thrown at them.

It's a Saturday and I don't expect the GMs to fix this overnight. But now that everyone knows it, I'm sure your friends with be hollering for a fix come Monday morning.

Oh, and you guys have Orbiter to thank for spilling the beans on this one: he's the one who told me, and he knows me well enough to know that I'd post it here.

Nothing lasts forever.

Actually, your friends are the squealers, if you think about it.

And who are you to threaten me? When the Nob attacked WGC, you sat around and held their econ countries for them. If they're a mob, you're the equivalent of the orphan who picks up their dry cleaning.

Or am I thinking of a different Keto?

I held no ones countries for them baffle. I took 3 countries, stripped them and made a profit.

Like I tell windbag, put your money where your mouth is. If you have nothing to risk at war then shut the heck up and stop wasting everyones time on the forums.
