Moonshot Methodologies


Method 1. Trading Moonshots

This is typically done between two similar sized allies or friends, BOTH of which have adequate defense to kill all ships. Use Speedsim and simulate if you are in doubt!

Party #1
  • Solid Defense
  • 1667 Light Fighthers (Cost: 5,001,000 Metal / 1,667,000 Crystal)
  • Solid Recycler Fleet (Medar uses 26 recyclers)


Party #2
  • Same as above


The objective is to launch your 1667 Light Fighters at each other, and have them 100% destroyed with minimal loss to your defenses. This exact amount of Light Fighters gives you a 20% moonshot, which is the max percentage. Outcome? 4 out of 5 times you will have blown through your entire 1667 fighters, and all you get is a damned debris field. Happened to Hod twice now, happened to me three times before I got my first moon.

Immediately BEFORE the battle - fleetsave your recyclers or any small ships you don't want wasted.

Immediately AFTER the battle - recall your recyclers and other random ships. You then recycle the debris above YOUR planet, which is usually a 12-15 minute run for a recycler round trip. There is 101 Recyclers worth floating...so do the math. 21 Recyclers will take you 50 minutes to an hour doing back to back trips. More recyclers = less time.

Outcome of Moonshot:

1. Debris Field Only: Consisting of 1,500,300 Metal, and 500,100 Crystal (70% Metal and Crystal Loss)

OR

2. Moon AND Debris Field: Consisting of 1,500,300 Metal, and 500,100 Crystal (70% Metal and Crystal Loss, but you got the damn Moon!)

----- Legality!!!!! -----

Always be aware of the rules! This method is 100% legal because neither the higher OR lower ranked player are benefitting from this in terms of RES gain - they are literally swapping. To make sure I even confirmed with the Admins.
  • Quote:
Hi

yes, its one of the ways to trade moonshots,
and there is no problem, thanks for the notification

- Charmed





Method 2. Purchasing Moonshots (HIGHER TO LOWER)

This is done when a HIGHER ranked party wants a moon, and a lower ranked buddy is willing to help.

Party #1 - HIGHER RANKED
  • Solid Defense
  • 5,001,000 Metal
  • 1,667,000 Crystal
  • Solid Recycler Fleet


Party #2 - LOWER RANKED
  • Facilities to build (and not lose) 1667 Light Fighters - or 1667 LF just sitting around for fun that are already built


The objective is to have your Lower ranked buddy attack you with 1667 Light Fighters that you essentially "paid" for, and as above, have them 100% destroyed with minimal loss to your defenses.

Use the same method as above for fleet saving and recalling.

----- Legality!!!!! -----

Always be aware of the rules! This method is 100% legal because the higher ranked player cannot PUSH a lower ranked player (it is technically a PULL which is fully legal). Neither party is benefitting from this in terms of RES gain - the Higher ranked player is only receiving the DF (which is 30% of what he paid). Again to make sure I even confirmed with the Admins.

  • Quote:
Medar: If I (as a higher player) give an exact amount of RES to a lower player, can that person crash his 1667 into my planet for a moonshot, and I keep any RES DF since I was paying him to build the 1667 fleet?

GM Charmed: Yes that is fine, you are higher ranked, you cannot push a lower ranked player so there is no problem. And yes that is also fine, you can pay someone for a moonshot, as you will not profit out of it.





Method 3. Purchasing Moonshots (LOWER TO HIGHER)

This is done when a LOWER ranked party wants a moon, and a higher ranked buddy is willing to help.

Party #1 - LOWER RANKED
  • Solid Defense
  • 5,001,000 Metal
  • 1,667,000 Crystal
  • Solid Recycler Fleet


Party #2 - HIGHER RANKED
  • Facilities to build (and not lose) 1667 Light Fighters - or 1667 LF just sitting around for fun that are already built


The objective is to have your Higher ranked buddy attack you with 1667 Light Fighters that you essentially "paid" for, and as above, have them 100% destroyed with minimal loss to your defenses.

Use the same method as above for fleet saving and recalling.

----- Legality!!!!! -----

Always be aware of the rules! This method is 100% legal AS LONG AS THE ATTACK IS WITHIN 48 HOURS OF THE RES PAYMENT. Neither party is benefitting from this in terms of RES gain - the Higher ranked player is only receiving the exact cost of the 1667 Fighters, and is IMMEDIATELY "spending" it. The Lower ranked player is the one getting hit, and is the one that will recycle and keep all RES. Again to make sure I even confirmed with the Admins.

  • Quote:
Medar: Is there any way for me to make 1667 Light Fighters...a lower ranked buddy pay me the exact amount for those fighters, and then I crash them into his planet, and he keeps all RES DF? I know it is illegal to PUSH - so we are trying to find the accepted methods of moonshotting when only one person in a team needs a moon!

GM Charmed: Just remember that if a lower rank is sending you resources for you to build Light fighters to crash into him, you need to complete the trade within 48hrs, as it would be seen as pushing to receive resources from the lower ranked player.

Hope that helps




And as for me...I hope that helps clarify what we are working on Moon-wise. In other words...I will be paying some of you a lot of RES to crash shit into me!

SOME DEFINITIONS:

PUSH - A "push" is when a lower ranked player provides RES of any variety to a higher ranked player. This is illegal and bannable. Directly from the rules:

  • Quote:
It is not allowed for any account to obtain unfair profit out of a lower ranked account in a matter of resources.

This includes but is not limited to:
  • Resources sent from a lower ranked account to a higher ranked one with nothing tangible in return.
  • A player crashing his fleet into a higher ranked one for the higher ranked one to keep the Debris Field, and thus profiting from it.
  • "Loans" that are not returned within 48 hours.
  • Trades in which the higher ranked player does not return the resources within 48 hours.
  • Players answering to a higher ranked player extortion by paying resources.
  • Trades that mean an unfair profit to the higher ranked player by falling outside the following range of ratios:

3:2:1 Where each unit of deuterium is worth 2 units of crystal or 3 units of metal.

2:1:1 Where each unit of deuterium is worth 1 unit of crystal or 2 units of metal.

Note that a game team authority will proceed to post other approved trade ratios on the universes trade boards when they need to be updated so this rule may not interfere with fair trading strategies.





PULL - A "pull" is when a higher ranked player provides RES of any variety to a lower ranked player. This is COMPLETELY legal and OK to do.

As fleets drop out of orbit and land to cull the resources of the charred wasteland, one can hear the crunching and splintering of bone as the Battleships ease onto the blackened earth.

It's a lovely sound.

14 million RES later, Stupot has one planet left. His decently defended Fleetbase. A haiku in honor of my latest conquest.

Stupot, inactive.
RES as far as one can see.
