want some gold???

buy a few attack weapons.
pull up users TheVoice or ImustDIE
attack them.

to get the most out of it, don't attack ImustDIE unless he has over 1 million gold.

TheVoice returned about 97 damage.
ImustDIE returned about 68 damage.

Yeah, there are quite a few super-rich:low-defense people.



Anyhow, I need more feedback on what sort of shield we want. At the moment I'm going with the idea of three-top-points and a cross, like the one below (which I think is poo, but it'll do to show the rough idea what I'm thinking).



Is that a good type, or should it just be a circular one, a plain boring flat-top, or something else?
Personally I want something less charicaturish, more sleeker, but the type is probably okay. (Although I'm toying with thoughts of a round one; can be fancier with less effort)

Also, what colours/materials? (Again, those above are just for show, I'm intending for proper metallic/whatever textures on the final thing.)

Does anybody get the banking thing?  What do they mean by "You have 3 deposits remaining"?  Can you only make 3 deposits ever?

Might want to put the links in the first post....or make a new forum for Dark Throne *winks at SS*

[SS]

I think it's probably 3 deposits per turn or day, but you lose 10% of your money by putting it in the bank so I can't be arsed to test it.

And links in the first post will do for now, but I'll create a new forum if (when) the alliance grows to more than just a handful of people.

[underruler]

How are we supposed to grow when there's like 100 alliances for every letter of the alphabet?

[SS]

Because once we get into the top ten, people will come flocking to us.


(Or we promote ourselves on their forums - once we've got some more TGA KoCers to come play )

[Uber Peasant]

i would play teh game but is it as slow as it used to be?

[SS]

Can be slow to load initially (When loading both it and KoC with seperate Firefox sessions), but otherwise it seems mostly okay (on 512 ADSL).
Oh, and the battle/spy reports do that stupid make-the-player-wait-a-hundred-fecking-years-for-the-info-because-we-think-it-causes-suspense thing, which is very annoying.
Actually, thinking about it, it can be slow sometimes. Just slow enough to be annoying, but inconsistant enough that I'm not complaining (yet).

I'm having trouble with the alliance profile text...we don't have that much going for us.

A. we don't have our own forums for Dark Throne
B. we don't really have a working clicklist other than click the stuff in the first post
C. we only have six members.....(hopefully 7 w/ Uber coming )

SS that sheild looks good but it's too round looking...it kind of looks like a turtle shell.  I think you should use a different colour besides yellow.

[SS]

Gah, I knew you'd compliment the shield whatever I said!

The colours are very quick gold/silver, but what we have in the final thing depends on whoever suggests the first thing that looks good.


As for the text, maybe mention that TGA formed back in Jan 2003 (because no other alliance has been around that long) and has never lost a war in KoC and we're going to do even better in DT. (use nicer words. )

[underruler]

I could tell it was silver but the gold is not so clear.

Hey are we race biased or what?

[SS]

Nah. We're against Orcs in KoC because we were RPing how the LotR storyline goes (The Great Alliance was from something like: The Last Great Alliance in Middle Earth of Humans, Elves and Dwarves ...bit of a mouthful).
DT doesn't have a storyline (so far?) so there's no justification for being anti-anything.

[diskreet]

anyways, there are no orcs or dwarves.   :blink:
