War Against Diamond

War has finally come and three alliances went to war against the diamond alliance. Several top players of Diamond were heavily damage. Some were even knock out of the top 10 ranking and fell way down the score list. Another consequence of the war was 2:10’s wonder were destroyed, not once, but twice! Now those money making planet are now open for the public to rob. Hee hee!

The Diamond alliance could not fight against three alliances so they were force to disband to minimize damage against them. Without an alliance, nobody can use the war status bonus. Raids and destructive operations are limited making it difficult to kill target planets.

Not everything went the way I like. Mr. Richi’s planet the “supernatural planet” was heavily damage and fell down to the 40th place. Don’t worry Mr. Richi you can still be in the top ten. I know you’re a good player so it would be alright. Look at me.

That’s about it for now. I’ll post further news about this war later.

Happy Vacation Mr. Simurg

That’s right! Mr. Simurg, the ruler of the planet Adana, finally went on vacation. His been planning about this for sometime now and finally went through with it.

Before he left, Mr. Simurg sent me a couple of large aid fleet to my planet. The huge cash flow enabled me to maximize my land exploration and built military units. The large number of operatives is now proving their worth preventing aggressive operation against me and the amount of scientist he sent me almost manage to disband some of my starfighters because there was no room for them in the barracks and civilian houses. Hee hee! Here are some of those operations against my planet that James Bond and Jimmy Neutron manage to foil.


Mar 22, 10:14 pm Operatives from MeterStick (1:9) approached our planet, but failed to penetrate our defenses due to defense operatives.
Mar 22, 11:12 pm Operatives from St Lucifer (2:8) approached our planet, but failed to penetrate our defenses due to defense operatives.

Mar 22, 11:12 pm Operatives from St Lucifer (2:8) approached our planet, but failed to penetrate our defenses due to defense operatives.
Mar 23, 1:54 am Operatives from DONT PANIC (2:7) approached our planet, but failed to penetrate our defenses due to defense operatives.

With Mr. Simurg’s help, I manage to climb the ranks from no. 42 to number 8. Alright! Unfortunately, he did not choose to put his planet on vacation mode but instead put his planet in a position that would let others to easily take his land. The result was predictable.


Mar 21, 12:01 am
The planet Adana and all its inhabitants have been totally destroyed in a massive cataclysm.

Wherever you are Mr. Simurg; I hope that you’re enjoying your vacation. I’ll do my best to be the best so that your help won’t be in vain. Happy vacation Mr. Simurg!

Turtle Time!

After the invasion of my planet by several cretins, I immediately implemented my phoenix program and started the rehabilitation of my planet. One of the things I paid particular attention was my military capability, and when I felt I was ready; I assaulted another planet with less than 25% of my military.


Mar 16, 2:59 am
Troops from SmallStick (1:5) assaulted Lord Of The Drinks (1:7) and conquered 288 land.

Unfortunately, I was still within range of the top planets and it is easy for them to attack me even if I just sneeze.


Mar 16, 3:59 am
Troops from House Of fury (1:2) assaulted SmallStick (1:5) and conquered 535 land.

Because of this incident, I immediately formed a committee to study and make a report of how my planet could grow big again. The report was bleak. There is no way my planet could grow by military expansion because we cannot catch up with the bigger planets’ military might. Anytime I attack someone, I’ll be attack too. That leaves only one option and that is to use the turtle strategy.

I find disfavor in using this strategy but I have no choice. So far its working, but its not as fun as attacking. I just hope I will always have enough military for defense so that I won’t be overrun again. Maybe someday, just maybe, I’ll grow big enough and strong enough to attack other planets again.
