Quote from Tom_Cruise: “Quote from Mih0: “Quote from Tom_Cruise: “... ” ” Thanks, always interesting to hear player experiences. Was your strategy any different to x4 speed games? It may sound silly but I'm thinking of going heavy with AFV's or TDs in x10. They could do a job, at least for defensive purposes. Of course a good player can counter these quite easily. Oh, and is it the same story with players going inactive after 1 real day? ” Not very different, the only thing I made more was coast…

What I'm trying to wrap my head around is this: If I were to meet an atypical opponent like you (in a 10X game) would you really be likely to have 4-5 SAMs parked in each of your home c…

Quote from Tom_Cruise: “Shame I missed it, but looking forward to playing this when it becomes mainstream. Must be incredibly intense though. x4 is stressful enough but x10 must take stress levels into the stratosphere! I guess the good thing is you can complete a whole map in 4 real days, but need total commitment around the clock. This game mode does require very smart thinking and planning than other speeds I would imagine. Can't seem to find any threads from the players that actually experie…

Quote from KFGauss: “Quote from KFGauss: “ ” In the games that count for this conversation (not FP, BGUSA, or PT) (I've never tried Overkill) the handwriting was on the wall by day 20, and the games were essentially over sometime between day 25 and 35 (some mopping-up still needed to be done) - Those were WW3 and a Sengoku coalition wins with friends +/- some randoms. My original comment was not supposed to be bragging - So let's set that aside. Instead I was saying that 2-3 game-days is usually…

Well I think it will be more dynamic and would need to adjust strategies significantly, one I can think of is having to keep a back up force at home just in case someone tried to rush you at night. However if you start in the morning, before you go to sleep it’s day 4 and should be able to secure your borders. My only concern is unit production, however I guess this incentivises us to get a security council and stop being freeloaders (for the people who want to play it of course)

I just saw some new 10X games in the new games tab, has anyone been lucky enough to join? Any first impressions? How are they? I am excited and I am hoping to join one tomorrow morning. Until when is this special even going to be available for us?

Hi Guys, I was wondering where can I find the special Rogue state playable maps? I have read about them on discord, but I never seem to find one? Is it on Blood and oil* only? (sorry for mistake)

Hello All, I have been wondering about the combat mechanics in the game. Does anyone here know how mixed stack units receive damage? For example lest say you have 7 infantry units + 3 armoured/support units, how would the damage of an attack helicopter stack be distributed? (considering the helicopters have 25 damage on infantry and 62 on armoured/support units). Does it make 70% of the damage on the infantry (in this case 17.5) and 30% of the damage on the armour (in this case 18.6). Or does it…

Hello All, I have been experiencing a lot of app and browser crashes on my Iphone recently, which I never experienced on my Android. I log into the research tree in a game, the game restarts, try and do the same thing and the game restarts in exactly the same way. I have noticed that the game restarts the most in the research tree, but it has also happened in cities, messages and diplomacy. Once I tried to send a message to a person in the game and it restart 3 consecutive times and I had to sta…

Yep I use special forces as a highly mobile scout (instead of 3rd level recon) + for hitting behind enemy lines (like planes and anti-air, in the last game I destroyed 12 fighter planes on the ground with them) + for combining them with a main stack to attack a city (because of their high infantry attack and the ignoring defender's bunker bonus) - this works well if I have 5 ,but he had so many SAM launchers that I couldn't use them to destroy his separated SAMs in 1 strike. In this game at day …

I have so far played and won 13 games and this is truly the first time I have seen something like this.. I am not sure if it's worth it though, as there is still a chance that he will loose.. I am all for the security council subscription but spending gold that you haven't won in a game is not something for me.

Hi Guys, I am just playing a game on overkill and encountered an enemy that is armed to the teeth on day 10 (10+ infantry, 4 tanks, 5 SAM, 5 mobile artillery, 7 strike planes, 5 fighters), which seems quite impossible for me (unless they have spent 50k+ in gold). Any thoughts ? Also has quite a lot of buildings of course to accommodate these units, but still mind-blowing..
