So, since my last competition was pretty much a discussion, I'll now close that and move over to this general colony discussion (the others are all specific)

TALK ABOUT ANYTHING RELATED TO COLONY (and beef burgers)

Well, I think pro-teams need to be a combination of the govs. because of my government role theory.

Yeah, the best builds at the moment, I think, are from those two governments. And fascist+Cap can be a good combination as well.

I am so close to cracking 2v2 Communist.

The role of the Communist is to be aggressive.

I have, right now, two styles that might work. I really can't tell when I have really bad partners.

First is the Rush-Defense where you open Hospital, then Outpost with 5 medics. That is all I have got so far. This is exactly like my Fascists Earthquake opening.

Second is the Economic-Harassment where you open Bank, then Outpost; this is known as the Foxer in 1v1. That's all I have come up with so far.



The reason why Communist is the aggressor is because it doesn't rely on a strong economy like the other governments. You get way more resources from killing units than you do from using buildings.

The only problem is, like my Fascists Style, you need to be pro to use it correctly.

The only real way to play Communist, as you said is to be aggressive, you do need to force the opponent to make units early game to make it easier for you to tech and gain an advantage with resources. Quite a difficult feat. and a Cap going for bank post barracks will beat commie bank post I presume.

hmmmmmm? aggressive? generally yes but not necessarilyyy, i like to play cat and play around b4 i finish the job, soooooo why not create a rock solid defense and FORCE the opponent to be smashed to peices whenever u clash.


hmmmmmmmmmmmmm so fun, and delicious

Commie is too slow to be able to tech and play on the same level as a government such as fascist or cap, I mean, if you go for hovers when commie, you will be beat by someone else going for hovers using cap or fascist, without a doubt due to how long it takes commie to tech, if you go for a fast attack then there is more chance of winning because of the bonus cash and influence you get when killing enemy units.

That's my take on the government anyway.

I am almost there to figuring out Communist. Actually, I think I already did. I just need to do some more test with my findings.

I can't believe I am this close to making Communist a useful Government.

I think I might have also figured out Capitalist and Monarchy.

Lol, I am not undermining you at all.:P I was just saying how I play communist and my opinion of how the government works. Also, I think Brooklyn is a bit far for me to travel to hit someone, lol.

I figured out everything I need to with Cap and Mon really, don't see much new coming from those two governments but I would be interested in hearing some good and effective Commie builds.

I think that my quoting is bugged, not sure why it is doing this.:L

was commy NOT useful b4?


I think it has always been there and has been used in EQ a lot so, yeah, I too think it has been somewhat useful.

I hope that quote worked this time.:L
