"Mighty of all" Has almost no quests, no battle losses, 344 battle wins, and is only level 10. He beat me down with one character but oculdn't kill me, so he jumped on his other character to finish me off. People are gaming the system. Hey, as soon as someone puts a bounty on me, catt or leisher kill me so we can cheat that way, too.

Isn't this game and Dragon Wars simply interactive advertisements? I mean, half the stuff on my list I can't do because I only have two guild members, plus those who really want to dominate can get free money, points, etc. by doing stuff for advertisers.

Just saw Gordon's post and that's another thing that has me perplexed, how does the fighting work exactly? It seems the attackers have a tremendous advantage.

And how do some folks have very few losses? Are they simply lucky enough to not get attacked or do they know something we don't?

I think this game has more cheats in it than UO did on opening day, and not a single one will be fixed.

And how did catt get the stealth tag when it tells me we need another person in our guild for that?

I assume he has other guild members that we don't have.

Right. Guilds are by individual. I have either 5 or 6 people in mine.

The basic way combat works:
Each person in your guild equips whatever the best weapons/defenses you have available are. Then, they fight.

So, someone with 100 people in their guild, and swords, will basically dominate you.

But the only thing you lose by dying is XP, so who cares. The macro will get your XP back.

I'm thinking about starting up my own second cheater character, so I can cheat in combat, too.

And if Catt would share some of his better friends we would only be that much more strong, but I guess he is embarrassed by us.

Well, if you'd stop showing your penis to everyone you meet, maybe he'd be more willing to introduce us.

I think you have to be Facebook friends to be guild-mates.

A flaw I plan to correct in the Pirates game. Check the discussion board, there is a thread of people who want to be in guilds. (You friend them, ask them to join (or vice versa), then unfriend them, and they stay in the guild)

I have a 2nd cheater account. It's the account I plan to use to release my games so my primary account doesn't get spammed/bothered by whatever happens.

But, I also never attack anyone, so it probably doesnt matter.

God, that happened, like, twice, and the one time she still married you. Let it go.

True, maybe if you were a little more impressive I'd be a single man. Bastard!

There is such a thing as "too big," for some women. Since I know you wouldn't know that.

Bah, that's too much work. How about not handicapping folks who don't want to be your private marketing firm?

Actually, I think her exact words to describe you were "needle dick the bug fucker". (Name the movie)

Add "Jennifer Hewlitt Packard" to your Facebook friends, she is already in my guild. She is my "cheater" account.

I bought 100 defense towers to see if that would help. They cost $8k per 40 minutes to maintain, and 900k up front.

I lost every battle, still.

This game has balance issues, and item issues.

For example, you can buy a small Trebuchet for 40k that provides 13 attack/8 defense and costs 600g upkeep.

However, you can buy a wood tower and battering rams for 29k that provide 14 attack/7 defense and cost 200g upkeep.

So the first is 11k + 400g/40 minutes more expensive, for essentially the same stats. Why would anyone ever buy it?

I always attack the peeps with the lowest numbers of people in their guild, and see what happens. Pretty much my only rule. I'm not even sure why.

Oh, and I'm currently on the big slog to buy my first city street and tavern. Then the money will come in a little faster.

Also, do you have a script to get yourself out of the dungeon? I've had to manually escape 3 or 4 times today.

Remember to ONLY BUY in units of 10.

I use an excel spreadsheet to track what to buy next:

Input prices in the 2nd column, then buy whatever is green.
