I have never played a game like this before, and I sure like it. It's fun to blow stuff up and shoot people, who knew?!?! I am stuck on level 6, I play it whenever I can. I'm sure I'll be out of it soon. I had a problem just creating the most expensive machines, thinking they were the best. Well, one time I ended up creating and duplicating a bunch of Dominions! hahah...Oops! That's what I get for not paying attention. Then I did the same thing with one of those other machines, the one that's better at shooting people. So it couldn't shoot buildings so well. I made a bunch of those and then I finally realized.. d'oh! Anyway, I'm kinda sorta getting the hang of it. I really like it. If I could just remember which machine blows up what, I'll be okay! hahaha... Anyway, I would like more information about multiplayer. I have never played multiplayer anything. I have a Kyocera 7135, which has a browser, or do I use the regular computer to play this in multiplayer? I also have a prism with an old Omnisky modem. The screen is bigger on the Prism, but it doesn't sign on so good. He's cranky in his old age.
Thanks,

I must try this sometime! They do have good armor, they could draw enemy fire away from the main armies...

Here, I'll give you a few hints that help me play.

The cheapest way to counter a unit:
To counter a guard, use an eagle.
To counter a rocket trooper, use a guard.
To counter a raider, use a guard.
To counter a eagle, use a hydra.
To counter a broadsword, use a rocket trooper.
To counter a hydra, use a rocket trooper.
To counter a liberator, use a hydra.
To counter a cyclops, use a rocket trooper.
To counter a bullpup, use a anything, but cheapest is rocket trooper.
To counter a dominion, use anything, but cheapest is rocket trooper.

As you can see, rocket troopers are very useful... Try to use them as much as possible.

Hey, thanks for the info, that will be really helpful. I don't make very many people, I figured the machines would be better. Maybe not...! I will look into the multiplayer section ASAP.

Cool, is that another woman? There aren't many of us around here. Good luck on those single player missions. And listen to Verdagon... he is one of the best players (besides me, of course :D )

In order to play multiplayer over the internet you will need either bluetooth or wifi connections. If you have either of those and know how to connect your device to the internet then feel free to contact me or alfex (the love of my life - look up all his helpful posts by his name for lots more info). We love to help new players get started with multiplayer. We host MP games every night over the internet.

See you in a game I hope.

Hey, currently I hold the crown. And besides, overall I have beaten you maybe ten times. You've beaten me at most 4...

Yes, another woman, hahaha... I have no idea what wifi or bluetooth is (are?) so I must not have them... or is it somethign I can download? I have a Kyocera 7135 or Visor Prism, but like I said, the prism is kind of slow, he's pretty much an antique at this point.

You know, UGMC doesn't really say a lot about gender either, and I've never disclosed my name.

Check out alfex post on another thread to see if this helps.

Otherwise you just have to get a new Palm, like the Zire 72 which has bluetooth built in, or the Palm Tungsten C (which is what we use) which has wifi built in.

No, truth is I'm a guy. But never assume things.

Don't drop false hints.
