Joint attacks.

[Moshulel]

Just spoted a planet with 500+ resources? Most of the time *especially now at the start of the game* you won't be able to take it on. But there's always safety in numbers!

Find a couple of allies asemble a fleet, keep your fingers crossed and... enjoy the loot!

*NOte that several attacks might be required for heavy defences to be obliterated due to the 70% chance for the defence to regenerate.

So... use this thread to plot your strikes.

Alternatively, if it's supported in Uni14, you can use the Federate Attack option and launch a single, massive attack with multiple fleets that will then equally divide the loot.

An alliance is a group of people who have banded together, like a guild or clan. Alliances are mostly used for solidarity purposes. Currently, as most of the universe are under OGame version 0.74b, alliances can do little tactically; however, an ACS (Alliance Combat System), a system allowing an alliance's members to station their fleets at another member's planet, has been added to the English OGame in universe 5 and from universe 18 and beyond. The ACS system has been also added to some universes in the Polish and Portuguese versions of OGame and to most universes in the German server. It has also been added to the 8th universe of the Russian version of OGame.

It doesn't seem so.

I got a tough enemy in 1:9:11. He has a crapload of defenses and is LOOOAAAADEEEED with resources. I could use some help with him. Anyone want to help?

Is he an inactive or an active? For the beginning, loot inactives.

I think my cruisers can squash this guy, though. Want me to attack for you? I can arrange it... Let me check SpeedSim.

 

[GenocideHeart]

Aw shit, never mind. The guy shows in green to me. I'm too much stronger than him to attack.

 

[Unknown-common-827]

Thanks for checking GH. I'll just attack other weaklings and inactive right now. At least until I get a few Heavy Fighters.

 

[ttestagr]

He isn't for me, and I could probably break him but he is part of a decent alliance. He's active too, so if we team up on him it is very possible we will have problems with an alliance that is stronger than ours at the moment. It would probably be best to leave him alone for now.

If you see someone without allies who is stronger than you, I'd give them a look to see if I could beat them and soften them up for you.


Edit: by the way Unknown, planet 14 in that system has decent loot totally undefended and inactive.

 

[TerraBull]

I was curious, can you time something to arrive at the same moment? *heh* I found someone.

Think he once had more defenses and a fleet that was worn away? *LOL* Look at the levels for all that.. wish I could take it over...

You can't take it over... but you can use it as a "farm" :snigger:

 

[ttestagr]

Indeed, me and Teko have two inactive players near us who have multiple planets whose resources replenish to about that level a few times a day. Totally undefended as well.

Zaizo's Ragnarok worlds in 2/71 & 72 and Cogalli's worlds in 2/80 & 81. Their presence has allowed for very rapid buildup.

Heh, that's good... yoou never get enough resources just out of mining.

 

[Unknown-common-827]

ttestagr- I'm not really going to attack that planet that much. I overpower him by an UBER amount. Not to mention he isn't as loaded as other inactive's I've seen/ raided.

Wait, I misunderstood your statement. My bad...

Indeed. Gotta love those inactive player's who leave farms for us to use.

 

[ttestagr]

Speaking of which, I just launced a joint attack on all of Zaizo's worlds with three of my fleets. They should be getting there in about 15 minutes. When they get back, I'll see if Cogalli's have built up again to make hitting him profitable. If not I'll start looking for appetizing single targets.

 

[Unknown-common-827]

I found a guy in 1:36:8 who is LOOOAAADED with Crystal and Deuterium. I am sending thre fleets and am raiding him. Anyone want to help or share the wealth? He only had Anti-Ballistic Missles and Interplanetary Missles.

 

[BlackSun]

Aren't there rules against members of an alliance attacking someone over and over?

 

[SimmyC]

Well, concerning attacks, their rules state...

V. Bashing

- Attacking a planet or moon more than 6 times in any 24 hour period is considered bashing, and is not allowed.
- Moon Destruction missions count as attacks under the bashing rules.

Exceptions
- Bashing is only permitted when your Alliance is at war with another Alliance (the War must to be announced on the official Ogame board, in the correct forum).
- attacking fleets that are completely destroyed do not count towards the bashing rule.
- Fleets whose combat is affected by the no-fire bug are exempt from the bashing rule.
- Interplanetary missile attacks do not count towards the bashing rule.

Doesn't say anything about it being attacked by a fellow Alliance member (besides the idea that if the alliance declares war on another alliance member, bashing is allowed). So, as long as the individual member, or I guess a joint attack, it is no more than 6 times a day.

 

[ttestagr]

We can't do joint attacks in this universe unfortunately.

He still has 12 cruisers in reserve while he's hitting you though Teko. I can't match that, right now I can only field 6.

 

[teko]

I wish he attacked my homeworld instead, I'm setting up some Gauss Cannons there, and want to see how effective they are.

 

[Unknown-common-827]

Anybody want to help decimate 2:84:7? They have good resources, but I think it's well defended. I just sent a fleet to raid it, but it would help if I knew what I was up against, or if I had a friend to help attack it.
