So what do we have till now?
I need to buy packs or get maybe event rewards to do rnd to unlock building.
Then build and upgrade building to be able to launch armadas to attack stations for loot, to buy tactical cores or uncommon packs.
For that I need directives which I can buy once a week in alliance store, so the amount of launched armadas is limited.
Is that correct?
tame pebble
pretty much yeah
delicate moth
As I understand it directives, cores etc will be available as rewards too.
chrome rune
Armada Control Center upgrade reward, Alliance Store and Daily milestones are sources for Armada Directives.
tame pebble
Events are here
quartz trench
What's the rewards?
leaden cipher
Whatever it is, it is core element to defend your armadas and or disturb others in events
Cauz u canβt launch them unlimited
tame pebble
gray rover
Domination haha

Thanks @tame pebble
abstract gate
Thanks mate @tame pebble
tame pebble
Tactical cores are not enough to research armadas
abstract gate
Just for reference, you're lvl 31?
tame pebble
Lvl 29
abstract gate
Hmmm another mate posted same number tactical cores for lvl 31
How many do you need for research?
tame pebble
1000
abstract gate
So this is half, and probably there will be another event for other half
Also those chests in alliance store
wet crater
maybe dailies?
abstract gate
Yeah, those too
delicate moth
Perhaps there'll be multiple way to get cores. Or maybe we're have to wait more... it's only been 11mths so far π
tame pebble
cant buy those in alliance store without armada credits
gray rover

untold sparrow
Or buy some big packs
narrow crypt
Classic Scopely Douchebaggery.... Make the 'prepare' events just prior to this (Jailbreak/Domination) spend all the things you need (Officer & Ship XP) for the new feature unlock... Which means people are then forced to buy!! What exactly were we preparing?!
teal hazel
what were we preparing? the lube we'll be needing for what they have coming...
cloud grail
Help the fourth event is only 4 hours long and we can't do it cause it's still loading. The rest we can wait on over a day still
cold hedge
They offering Pack to purchase?
abstract gate
you have to ask?
cold hedge
I am sorry.... I should have said... what are the purchased packs.. my guess a $49.99 and $99.99...lmao
torn grove
27.99 and 69.99 for me
and the event only gets you 200/1000 that you need just to research it
split sequoia
@cloud grail update the game client
then clear localisation
but no point seeing it
cloud grail
Thanksπ€
split sequoia
you will be disappointed
cold hedge
we are never happy
latent peak
Uninstal game and go meet friends, better than pay scopely tax for armada
split sequoia
one of them is spend 600 directives, the other is kill 4 armadas
which at the moment , only way to be able to accomplish that is by opening up the store and swiping ur credit card
and buy the ACC PACK
bold girder
@split sequoia so the control centre is locked behind a paywall?.
split sequoia
at this current moment yes
abstract gate
Armadas is free for all with a small delay.
You can circumvent that with a pack as with many things.
lusty oak
How small of a delay?
split sequoia
2 days likely
one event gives 500 cores and runs for 1D
so 2 days later get 1k
do research
lusty oak
D'Vor and Franklin have a small 1 year delay
narrow crypt
Why did all the Prepare events make me spend the things I needed for the Armada event?
split sequoia
ACC builidable
narrow crypt
A good 'prepare' event would have helped stock up Officer or Ship XP?!
That would have been... Ya know... Preparation.
split sequoia
if the 500 core event runs continuosly
narrow crypt
Rather than 'prepare' to be fleeced... Again...
split sequoia
then 2 of those events will allow f2p to get enough cores to research A.C.C
narrow crypt
^^ if they hadn't just spent all of their XPs on the events prior to today?!
split sequoia
well
yes they are but
should catch onto their method of luring u to spend rss
then next event require the same rss again
but already spent most of it so the packs come out for sale
narrow crypt
Somehow meant to find 1.2m officer XP to complete two days worth of events?!
Gonna be a slow road to Armadas... Talk about killing the hype.
split sequoia
yea....
narrow crypt
Strongly considering an uninstall at this point in time.
abstract gate
More things other than officer EXP can be spent.

No need for the double down on burning your clients.

I'm off. None of the Armada events can be accomplished by my account. Later folks

Thatβs actually my problem, the cash grabs are petty

no yeti they learn

all the complaining in discord
but their packs are still selling
abstract gate
@narrow crypt bro, mods here aren't employed by Scopely, nor do they have any influence there. So please vent out by sending your concerns to Scopely by email
split sequoia
already an alliance killing armadas on my server
so they learnt very well
ignore the complaints and keep making money grabs
languid cove
The dβvore was such a con job just like the franklin and bb before it
narrow crypt
Yeah, whales be whales...
That's fine...
Just let the non whales have a go as well...
split sequoia
just play the game without trying to race the whales or compete
armadas will be avail to all
in time
dvor is one yr until events are released to speed up bp gain
armadas atm seems like 2 days
for f2p

Yeah, just sucks that they built all the hype and then... Fizzle
languid cove
Now does everyone have to have armada things or just the person who starts it?
split sequoia
Coming soon -> Prepare -> Retrieving
narrow crypt
Yeah, not many FTP have 1.2m officer XP lying around...
split sequoia
at the moment doesnt seem like everyone needs the ACC
someone starts the armadas atk
and ppl join it

Why anyone would expect anything else as another cash grab, do people never lern
shrewd totem
True @split sequoia
split sequoia
from the gc chat i saw on my server
shrewd totem
Someone opened it in my alliance and I can join
languid cove
I have a couple spenders in the alliance, should be fine
narrow crypt
Well that's something at least!!
split sequoia
the directives gonna be heavy on those ppl then
batman can ask your alliance how many directives to start 1 armada?
narrow crypt
(of course why isn't there an ACC starter pack... Instead of a Full bore ACC Big boy pack?)
split sequoia
likely the building requires cores to upgrade
specific rss add ons
like the dvor
bb
franklin
narrow crypt
The directives in the alliance store have a 7 day cool down too.
abstract gate
Wow
narrow crypt
So even if you get 1000 cores for 2 day research... You need cores to build ACC too?
I guess you might be able to earn more whilst Research happens.
These events better stick around for at least 3 weeks at this rate

I assume it comes with the next event refresh in around 1h (on my server)

Events are there or will be soon to get you the items you need to start with Armadas.
If your allies unlock the building faster through a purchase, you'll be able to assist them on Armadas they start though!
proud merlin
I cant see nothing in store to purchase
languid wigeon
update the game first

That is not correct. The only way to get cores is by leveling up officers. No other way unless I spend 100.00 bucks. Not going to happen. This in my opinion is garbage

only the 1 with the building can start
then you can join him, defeat stations, earn tokens, buy
tactical cores and build your own acc

its not as simple as that
when ur in a 70+ alliance
doing this behind a paywall is disgusting to do
but cant say im surprised though its scopley after all

whats the difference between a 40er ally and 70+?

u serious?
velvet dawn
i dont see a problem with it.
or dont you communicate in your ally and all are greedy?

Whos surprised that the prepare for the Armadas events would ask you to spend the resources you need to compete in Armadas. I have not got enough officer xp or ship xp left after spending them on the last couple of days events. Thanks Scopely.......

i dont have enoug htoo, but we got some buyers, so i just wait some houers till they come online and we raid together some bases

hybrid ibex
@abstract gate Youre right I should have been prepared for the scopely drain you to get you to pay to play. π
velvet dawn
@potent hound 5 days for under lvl 28, 2 days for lvl 28+ or even less if you do armadas with your buyers in your armada
hybrid ibex
@velvet dawn assuming you didnt blow all your officer xp upgrading scotty and uhura in the prepare event.
potent hound
@velvet dawn, it says to participate I need the ACC, so how with buyer's in my armada?
velvet dawn
i am in the same boat, i got enough xp to do 1 event and i need 5 -.-
it was written that to start the armada you need the building, but not to join it
potent hound
I can't use building or research upgrades to gain power. How wack.
hybrid ibex
@velvet dawn you can do it in 2 days at level 28 but it will cost you a few hundred k more xp.

In an alliance of 68 none of us cared for armadas and thought it was a joke. What we really cared about is that promised refinery event that was supposed to happen after the next mining event. That still hasnβt happened yet. π’

@outer herald it's a 100 US dollars, or have a few million officer exp or 320k ship exp sitting around. @shrewd totem @twilit imp may disagree, but this game is a pay to play almost. Take forever to get the random UC unless you spend spend spend.

I think this is fantastic! After spending a π© ton of money on this game already Scopely has finally opened my eyes with its greedy predatory pay to play tactics. My personal favorite....they tell you to spend resources on events to prepare for Armadas and then the Armadas require those same resources to advance thus ensuring that you pay more if you want to play. Bravo. You just lost a paying customer for this and all future Scopely products.

@dusky sphinx you can get faster when by joining your friend's armada and get item to spend in ally store to get around 2k cores
@sonic heath eaiser at lvl 28-
sonic heath
yeah but that means you need a whale in your alliance

Either wait for lvl 28+ to get in it 1 day or lvl 28- to get it in 4 days

assuming the event continues past the week (no way I am getting from 24-28 this week)

I asked panic the same question @sonic heath. He did say events on all week

Correct me if I am wrong

@stark vector if someone bought it in your alliance you can get it for free in a few hours by attacking armada targets

@graceful shard by upgrading armada building you get directives

Once you hit the level
You will only be able to start one armada every 7 days?
You canβt even buy directives?
This has to be broken right?
<@&509691205798592532>
There appears to be no other way to actively generate more directives once your building is maxed. And waiting 7 days to earn 1 run seems broken. Am I missing something?
meager galleon
@glacial token do you remember how many tactical cores you got from the purchase ?
graceful shard
10k. Itβs gets your building to 19
shrewd totem
Should be around 2-3k @meager galleon

But you need directives to start an armada

U just got 100 directives .. ...enough for 1 armada attack

I canβt confirm this but pretty sure there are dailyβs to come

There has to be?
Can @twilit imp confirm
Because right now there is no way for me to start an armada for 7 days
Which seems broken right ?
shrewd totem
@graceful shard Panic isnt on now
meager galleon
Armada Directives can be purchased in the Alliance store with alliance credits, and earned by building and upgrading the Armada Control Center and by completing Daily Goals. In addition, they should be available in IAPs for pay players.
We will have to wait and see on the daily income @graceful shard
graceful shard
Thanks for the clarification @meager galleon
Letβs keep our fingers crossed for 500 a day in dailies

i'm getting 15 a day. don't get your hopes up
meager galleon
@brittle horizon you have the new dailies ???
graceful shard
@brittle horizon is trolling
meager galleon
Why you say that
graceful shard
Dailies donβt rest for 8 more hours so he would have no way of knowing
Also I bought the most expensive chest in alliance store with the credits you get from armadas
And itβs a joke
Iβm level 32 so I have no use for common rss and even my miner takes 3hours to repair so 15 min repair speed ups
shrewd totem
@graceful shard already forwarded
graceful shard
Are useless
exotic escarp
My dailies today are giving me 15 if I complete them all. Gonna be a solid week before I can hope to get into this thing.
brittle horizon
the 4th box gets you 10 armada directives, so that's 15..
given you can buy 100 from the alliance store each week.. 15 a day gets you 105 in 7 days - so in total, 205 a week so far
meager galleon
@exotic escarp got a screenshot ?
exotic escarp
graceful shard
Which daily is that?
exotic escarp
Box 4
meager galleon
So 5 at box 3 and 10 at box 4
exotic escarp
Box 2 also has 5

Yep

Months waiting for armadas and seems its a pay stuff, any way to do it without spending atm?

Chests in the daily milestones @graceful shard

Like all events and new things....the rich get richer. Everyone can get it, but it takes a long time. Itβs an incentive to drop big dollars.
graceful shard
What is the task in your daily milestone@that gives credits
I am not seeing anything in mine
meager galleon
Snakke youβre being very dense π
abstract gate
Not a task, itβs in the chests you get
meager galleon
The mile stones for completing x amount of dailies that lets you open chests
Like the last mile stone that gives you a loyalty badge
abstract gate
Seems exp officer and ship its the only way for getting those blue pieces, not?
exotic escarp
graceful shard
Perfect that is what I wanted
merry fulcrum
@abstract gate yes, unless someone else has the armadas building, then he can launch armada attacks with everyone, and you can buy the blue things from alliance store
abstract gate
Nice, thanks u mate
graceful shard
The rub is that you appear to only earn enough tokens to start 1 armada every 5 days
So make them count
merry fulcrum
Tbh, they need to add something else to destroying those stations, like uncommons for everyone in the attack
Or, rss, recruit tokens, etc
abstract gate
Agree, the rewards are not worth the time involved. Maybe the chests in the alliance store will be.
graceful shard
And what you can buy for the credits in the alliance store is hot garbage
abstract gate
Ah well there goes that hope. Lol
merry fulcrum
The uc one gives ship parts, which I will love to get my hands on, along with repair speed ups
graceful shard
At level 32 it gives 15 min speed ups
merry fulcrum
So, it's not all bad for free to plays
graceful shard
Which are more than useless
As even my miner is a 3 hour repair
Hopefully the scaling is just off
merry fulcrum
But everything else about it is bad, wish they had more involved, though we have yet to see these "tournaments"
Idk how they'll differ from leaderboards
graceful shard
Also there is no uncommon in the box that says uncommon
abstract gate
Lol, so months and months of anticipation for armadas, and itβs a flop basically.
merry fulcrum
Maybe it's just like the free chests, you can get great pulls from them, or crap
warm bobcat
Most over hyped, least well thought out event in STFC history
forest rampart
Is there a calendar for this? Is there gonna be alliance/solo boqtds?
thin compass
A lot of the disappointment around armadas could have been avoided if there had been some details of how it was going to work and what rss you'd need to succeed prior to the launch. Then running domination events leading up to the launch, draining us of xp needed for armadas events was uncool.
hushed hornet
Tbh yes, the event to get tactical cores is kinda crap, but you only need one player pay for some packs and build the things, and all other alliance members can join... I joined 4 armadas and I already have enough tactical cores to start the required research. For now yes, at the end of the day the things you get in the armada pack could be better... hopefully they'll adjust them
dreamy tide
Why do alliance members at level 20 have the Armadas event?
hushed hornet
No... the more the better, otherwise there is too much competition to get into a 2-4 ship armada
Only the strongest ships get picked to fight so... better to have a few armadas going at once if you have an active alliance
dreamy tide
competittion not a problem our alliance is pretty chill
alpine yoke
Am I misunderstanding this or is it saying for each armada you launch you'll get 1 point? The armadas that take 15 minutes to complete. To get the lowest tier would take you 30 hours, and it's a 24 hour event, and appears to be solo rather than alliance...
hushed hornet
Rewards though... mmmm... yes nice ship parts but they could put some uncommon materials in there really
@alpine yoke I think you spend more than one directive to create an armada. Didn't try myself yet though as I am still researching (f2p)
alpine yoke
Hm ok
tame pebble
No it gives you 100 points for each armada launched
alpine yoke
ok so it's a typo
hushed hornet
Well it's right, it just costs like 100 directives or so to launch an armada
Level dependent I guess
tame pebble
You need 100 directives to launch an armada
alpine yoke
...
hushed hornet
Never seen a game with so many different currencies in my life π€£
alpine yoke
Oh, you get 100 when you buy it for 250 alliance credits. I thought you got one, was about to start flipping tables
Ok never mind me then π
hushed hornet
For now though, I'd rather buy shields and relocation tokens than armada directives really
Seem to be a bit overpriced.
alpine yoke
Someone in my alliance got alliance credits off a chest drop, 500 or so. So they may be farmable now. I couldn't get any off separatist elites though

@tame pebble games mostly start out with small number of currencies.....as players hoard them they need to make new ones to start the new lot of grind...give SG enough time the same thing will happen there

can they just give us the bonus refinery without the rest of it? π

yeah, mining and station raiding @mint adder . I got all excited when I saw it announced cause I confused it with Act of War

act of war is the good faction one right?

I love that one. could do without it for a few weeks though. finally working on rom for the 3 faction lock

Once someone in your alliance has it you can easily get it though by participating in those armadas
Events also give the required stuff but can't get all in one day
zinc kindle
Yes but how does the first one get it, though purchases?

The first ones that got it today, yes purchase with real money

So one of our alliance members has to outlay cash and then we all can piggy back off them?

slim aurora
So, after a few of my team bought and upgraded, we got into groups and ran around killing armada
Within 1 hour i was making my own research and armada without buying the pack. Once i.got upgraded, i took a few folks and helped them get theirs, etc. 5 hours in, and most of my alliance can summon armada.
This is still incredibly disappointing event. The hype was crap...really, 10+ months for this? Rewards vs time spent (roughly 20 mins from search, warp, wait and kill) is terrible.
We would be better off if armadas were still coming
merry fulcrum
@slim aurora posted some feedback in events feed back think most people would agree with it, compared PokΓ©mon go raiding to this event, which are similar, except raiding Is a lot more fun

Sorry if itβs already been asked, if Iβm the leader but join with a really small ship, so long as my ship stays in the circle I donβt have to be one of the ones that hits it right? Just queued? Or will that cause the hit to cancel?
tawny coyote
@twilit imp <@&509691205798592532> I would like to say that after waiting all this time is not very impressive. Regular base raiding is much better. You actually get resources that we can use in the game. You have to waited all that time and just get armada credits, not what I was expecting.. I was hoping we can get some uncommon gas, crystal or ore, even some rare but we get armadas credits. I was hoping for something much better.
mortal fiber
Maybe Armada credits will be used to buy 4* materials?
inner cave
The armadas credit can be used in the alliance store to purchase those two pacs in the store, one of witch looks like uncommon materials @tawny coyote
@twilit imp <@&509691205798592532> i thought we were@meant to get armadas directives from the dailies ? I donβt see them as any of the daily rewards??

@inner cave you should be lvl 23+

I see it now second last chest on the milestone one @shrewd totem
But only 10. Canβt even start an armadas with that
shrewd totem
@inner cave then it is lvl dependant.I am ops 27
More ways to get directives can be added soon
inner cave
Im ops 28
shrewd totem
You only looked to the last chest.Please look at the chest which gives 4h shield
inner cave
I think I did get another 5 directives from another chest. But that only makes 20 a day.
Iβve done the firsts 3 chests so canβt see what was in them
Will look again tomorrow.
dapper drum
yeah make sure you do big outposts though
lvl 30 needs atleast 1800 creds for 3225 cores
inner cave
You get 20 at lvl 28
dapper drum
so 7200 cred base with a 4 ship armada can carry 3 players into getting their own ACC
inner cave
A 15 and 5. Talked to another 28 in my alliance
inner cave
Cost of creating an armadas is 100 ??
dapper drum
100 directives
and if you don't get the kill most likely there are 2 or 3 other alliances already on countdown to finish
so don't bite off more then you can chew
inner cave
Ouch. Iβve heard 2-3 times the power of the armadas is needed to defeat it
shrewd totem
Noo

no

Half is enough

And what ships you have
inner cave
Nice to know
dapper drum
guessing more if only 2 ships
payflower sucks btw
my cent 100k lower does 50% more damage then payflower
shrewd totem
No it doesnt
dapper drum
payflower just has a higher shield cap
shrewd totem
Because Cent is T2 and Mf is T1 faction ship
dapper drum
my kumari does more damage then the payflower
and its 370k payflower was 500k
it has no firepower still
thought they were going to fix that this update?

On our server we take down a 5m boss with just over 2m power in a 4 ship amarda.

So the uncommon armada pack in alliance store has no uncommons? Is it dependent on acc lvl or just a waste of 10k creds?
Any <@&509691205798592532> or <@&509690795536941056> care to weigh in on this? It's a bs reward if there's no uc in there tbh

A bit untrue information
@meager galleon I bought two packages and was enough to level center to 28lvl of course I took the alliance store pack also with core,
meager galleon
Okay, will edit - was second hand information on that one
abstract gate
10k cores in the pack I bought...now it's 35k wtf is that about? @meager galleon
Don't have a ss of original pack but here's what I woke to this morning...another slap in the face from scopely
meager galleon
Donβt know, we have no info on Packs that go on sale
That might be where my old Info came from about 4-5 Packs being needed to get to a high lvl
ebon galleon
3 packs needed to get it to lvl30
meager galleon
They probably upped it to 35K cores after

Iβve just changed the wording to multiple packs π

@meager galleon nice review and I agree.
atomic moss
I wonder how much Scopley hopes we will spend per month on this game. I do not begrudge them the right to make money for their work. It is a free game, so they need to recover costs and make a reasonable profit. However, I have never seen a game where people with liberal credit cards can gain such an outsized advantage. I can see people getting cool ships, base bling, etc. It should still be possible for a minimal paying grinder to excel. This game is great and fun, but this kind of thing makes me think about quitting all the time.

You can skip first pack or you get enough cores from alliance rewards and event rewards and build the ACC.

First pack gives 10k, guessing subsequent purchases give you 35k. Or if youβve won enough cores to do the research and build the control centre you move straight to the 35k pack. Just a guess

I don't have the money to invest and we don't have enough people who have purchased the packs.

In order to get a spot the your alliance needs to be organised and everyone has to cooperate...gl with that

Yes

@sweet sapphire 2k for lvl 27
abstract gate
After many weird things happening in my head I have concluded that every time someone upgrades the ACC it gives 25 cores to the alliance. It's either that or buying those packs from alliance store. But it should be building.
Coz it happens a lot

@vapid hill no no, not the cache ones. The ones you buy for these new green tokens

The pack will tell you what the pack gives the alliance.
abstract gate
I am not talking about packs for real money. And those packs in alliance store show nothing of the sort.
vapid hill
In the alliance store. That's more specific to the question, thanks
IN that case ,the packs in the alliance store aren't giving the alliance anything.
shrewd totem
@abstract gate those gifts are from buying core pack from ally store
vapid hill
LOl. Well, ok, that's where they're from.
shrewd totem
After I bought one,someone said thanks for gift that is how I understand it
vapid hill
Well since we can't view what's in the packs before we buy a pack....which is unnecessary since there could be a 'view' button.....
shrewd totem
@vapid hill agree
abstract gate
@shrewd totem negative, those uncommon core packs also give 25 cores, not just tactical
shrewd totem
Packs bought with $$?
abstract gate
Nooo maaan both of those packs in alliance store. Not just one
abstract gate
Yeah, I'm stalking my alliance for an hour now xD some bought Tactical Core some Uncommon Core pack from alliance store.

Hmmm, if uncommons were guaranteed then I would be all over it, lol

Not worth it at all.

@viral pawn it's random
tawny coyote
That is all I need at my lvl 3 uncommon and rare. But the refinery even after upgrade and upgrades give the same lousy result. Plus donβt bother buy the prime refinery pack, I did and it was the biggest waisted of money. Did not see any improvement. When the game ask player for in my case about 500 rare of each kind to do ships research and base station upgrade, you just star think if they ever want player to stay for the long run or just give up.
merry fulcrum
No guarantee on common, or uncommons
calm stream
We will have a great game
thin compass
Given the 100 directive cost to start an armada, a message should be added when you are starting an armada allowing you to cancel if another alliance slipped in before you. Just had another one happen. The other alliance had a 10 sec lead and we wasted the 100 directives.
Please add a cancel option to armadas that gives you back the directives.

How are the armada credits distributed after winning
merry fulcrum
@potent yarrow divided the ammnt awarded, by the ammnt of players
potent yarrow
Thatβs what i thought initially too. But as we went on. I noticed Out of 857 I got 107 and there was only 4 of us. Mind you I was the weakest ship at 287k
merry fulcrum
Hmmmm, so it's distributed by power of ships, what were the power of the other ships?
potent yarrow
Let me check.
412k 430k and 694k
What I havenβt checked is the ones Iβve started. Does being a leader give you more or is it just purely power based.
potent yarrow
Last one I did I got 125 out of 435 and there were three of us. A 425k 227k and me at 285k. Itβs not damage dealt because I checked the log and saw that I did the most damage in the two rounds.
carmine lily
the reward is divided among the participants based on the percentage of total power they supplied to the attack.
that's the conclusion we came to. did a litte math
merry fulcrum
Yep, with the touch estimate, it was close, didn't seem fully on, but I didnt get all the numbers
"rough" not touch
carmine lily
it's very close, there's probably either a randomizer in there, or a base amount given to everyone then what's left over is split.
merry fulcrum
Yep
carmine lily
wasn't motivated enough to do calculus to figure it out, just got as close as we could.
potent yarrow
Thanks guys!!!
You guys are right. I did the rough math on my last one. The percentage rate for both how much I got and how much power I put in matched.

Has anyone tried participating in an armadas attack below level 23? Will the game let you?
I'm below level 23 and the game seems to let me queue for an attack, but I my alliance always has stronger ships show up so I don't know what would happen if I was one of the 3 ships selected to attack.

Same here. As burn said we already had to give time out to 2 players.
The worse are the casual and silent players π they dont follow alli chat so crash runs without understanding why it s a big NO
abstract gate
Rn we are trying to help as many f2p to unlock acc as we can most of the crashers are p2p's with acc unlocked
@abstract gate absurdly enough, same situation in my alliance
As it stands now it's just another nail in the f2p coffin
rough frost
We start spreading ACC like a virus too. 1 Player from a friendly alli came help 2 of us who helped 2 others ....
By now with the gifts everyone in ours should have enough to build it and upgrade it to ten without even having join an armada
abstract gate
That's our aim too
rough frost
And all that without any pack bought πππ
abstract gate
A few of us bought a pack or two myself included now some of those are trying to spread the wealth myself again included
modest rivet
teamwork and friendship is always the best way
rough frost
There was one pack bought by a friend in another alliance. It was enough to spread armada in 4 friendly alliance. Some others probably took one, but as far as I know no one in mine even if we have some spenders ( myself included )
Hopefully before the end of the week even the more casual of our f2p will have armada π
Hope you Will manage it too @abstract gate but you seems on the good way ;-) πͺ

How many xp officer or ships do you think we have? Billions? Ffs at least give us a chance to do it with mining or hostiles farming

You can also get help from other. I got my building done today, did a kill with a friend 4 level lower to boost him.
He can get credits and buy the core pack in the alliance store

If they make the uncommon 3* Iβll buy it

526k latinum. Mate, you had enough. Now go and buy a boat and go fishing. π€£

Donβt know why they put those there
abstract gate
Nobody does... But if they ever make it possible to convert them to g3 as we requested... Man oh man it will be a good day

I actually do all the survey feedback just to tell them stop putting 2* mats in the packs
abstract gate
It's called bloat...on a casual scan through it looks like you're getting a lot of stuff, closer inspection reveals you're being conned...oh scopely you devious rascals
De ja vu?

Just for continuity's sake

If I accidentally launch an armada with one of my Envoys, then send a Kumari to the armada location, should the attack use my Kumari (the stronger ship?)
stone grail
Yes
silent torrent
I didn't. It used my Envoy. I didn't actually "join" the armada with my Kumari though
stone grail
Ah, thats because you started it with your envoy
sorry i didn;t see the "if i launch" part
silent torrent
If I moved my Envoy out of the bubble (and had joined with a stronger ship) what would have happened?
abstract gate
You can join with multiple ships only the strongest will fight

Not sure if this is the correct forum to posse this question... But I was wondering why Latinum is not including in the Mega Mining Event?
abstract gate
Coz it's too easy to do. π€£
