Support the army of Yendi!

[yendi]

Just a daily reminder that you can join my army once a day by clicking here.

And if you want to support my Officers (as well as their officers, etc). aliza250 has compiled a wonderful list of everyone in my chain of command over here.

As for my current strategy, I've been mainly focusing on my spies. I'm up to level seven, and should be at level eight by the end of the day. My goal is to achieve sabotage immunity before the current age ends.

I have no frigging clue what this game is. I've joined your army, at least I think I did, but if you try sending me over the top, I'm going after my officer with a bayonet. I've read Charley's War; I know how this army stuff works, and simple folk like me get killed while you toffs eat caviar and drink champagne.

I just got a database error. Unfortunately, it generally doesn't let me try again in a few minutes since it decides that I've already tried today.

If it gives you the clock thing telling you how long until you can try again, that's usually a sign that it went through.

Okay, I'm in. I'm a sucker for the "lots of travel, free lodging and upkeep" routine.

Is there such a thing as a guide to getting started? I've been in your army for a week, and I have no clue how to do anything with this game.

I found some good stuff in the forums that are linked from the top of the page. But a lot of it is just experimentation.

I think the best hint I saw was to bank your money in knives -- quick to purchase, easy to re-sell, and unlikely to be stolen or damaged by the enemy if/when attacked.

If you keep your gold balance low, you're banking in either equipment or training, and therefore doing yourself some good.

I joined, and you can throw me at the enemy. I bought some spy points and some armor and a crossbow, but I can't figure out how to do anything else.

The forums at http://www.giveupalready.com/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=23 are a pretty good place to begin. There are some good faqs in the Barracks area.

By the by, if you ever need any, uh, assistance from someone ranked near 2000, let me know. There are few things I enjoy more than beating the criznap out of people who pick on far weaker people, farm, use probe accounts, et cetera. ;)

Also, everyone join my army! (http://www.kingsofchaos.com/recruit.php?uniqid=8258qfws) Muahahaha.

Holy shit! That's a good ranking.

I'm not looking for any revenge myself (I've kicked the crap out of the one person who took advantage of me earlier), but I know that a whole bunch of folks took advantage of sff_corgi when she joined up, and only one of 'em was in a position where I could then kick their ass.

That said, I just came back from dinner to find that a jerk named GreenEggs nailed me for the $200,000 that had accumulated and killed two of my guys. He's way above me on all levels, but if you think you could hurt him, I can't say I'd feel very sorry for him. :-)

So, uh, usually I only break a few of someone's best items, but I must have rolled the worst snake eyes ever, because with zero covert operatives and zero spy levels, he managed to kill a few of my lvl 10 Elven spies.

I got a little... vengeful.

Anyway! If you or anyone else wants to attack him once he acquires some money, I'm pretty sure he won't be doing much of the defending. My spies did a little destructive tap dance through his armory. :)

[yendi]

Woohoo! Thanks!

~100 new army members in a day. That's got to be pretty good...

[bassfingers.livejournal.com]

Did I say "army members"? I suppose that would be soldiers, wouldn't it... ah well... tired...

[yendi]

Well, some of them become spies. :-)
