Im the same way, and BNA just rejected my trade. I think that's a declaration of war. Oh wait, I can't. I'm part of that stupid agreement... hehe, I kid. I'm sure it was in the best interest of his, sulfur-smelling, devil, nation.

Matt · #22 Posted **Feb 27, 2007, 2:24 AM**

I'll tell you what you can do to spend time in the game: Find new members for MAD! The big alliances have hundreds of members each. Some even number in the thousands. We need more people. Go out and find them.

As for tech trading, the basic concept is simple: Tech (like infra and land) costs more the more of it you have, so it's much cheaper for a young nation to buy (say) 10 units than it is for an old one to buy 10 units. So young nations buy tech and then sell it to old nations for more than the young nation paid, but less than the old nation would have to pay for that same amount. Both countries profit.

The game is extremely deep. There are a lot of little quirks like that you can exploit. There is much more to it than buying your 10 units of infra every day and then logging out.

If you want to know the basics for how to do well, read this.

Furs and rubber here. Seeking someone to trade with.

BroncoCSU05 · #27 Posted **Feb 27, 2007, 4:33 PM**

ok, which new nation will accept some $$ for some good 'ol fashion technology? name your price for XX.XX units

Cirrus · #28 Posted **Feb 27, 2007, 4:54 PM**

Keep in mind that you need a middle man for all tech trades.

The game doesn't allow more than one aid transaction directly between any two nations within a 10 day period, so unless one of you wants to wait 10 days for your half of the deal, you need a middle man. It works like so:

Nation A sends tech to Nation B -> Nation B sends cash payment to Nation C -> Nation C forwards cash payment to Nation A after keeping a pre-determined cut. (or vice-versa).

Are you going to declare war on the goons?

Because that would be laffo!

MAD ≠ Farkistan

You reckless tyrant! I'm not defending you if you do that. lol

I only have 27 troops though so it's not like i'd be much of a help anyway.

Dear Leader VI · #38 Posted **Feb 28, 2007, 2:49 AM**

Is MAD a strictly-Skyscraperpage alliance?

Cirrus · #39 Posted **Feb 28, 2007, 2:58 AM**

No. Anyone may join. SSP members currently make up the majority, but it's non-exclusive.

Evergrey · #40 Posted **Feb 28, 2007, 3:10 AM**

this sounds even dorkier than Settlers of Catan
