There are night trains with leeping cars, they are however incredibly expensive relative to just having a horrible night in a regular seat tongue

These night train are however not very full booked, so most likely you can splurge over several seats tongue

Well thats a common problem;

There are some organized tours by bus and boat i believe, they are all relatively pricey tho, but there is not much alternative. If youre up for a challenge i would recommend a bike ride tho, if the weather is suiting.
Depending on what sorta landscape you are normally used to i would really recommend getting into the norwegian mountains aswell, easily accesible from Bergen.

Apart from that, Bergen is always full of life during the summer and with your timing you might actually hit the initiation week of the university and colleges here, should be a good time for a night on the town and some loose fresh female students....

Ron Paul for 2012 please, i believe Obama has the right intentions but he has too much bagage from being a social democrat. Bring in someone like Ron Paul who has the fiscal views of a conservative and the foreign policy views of a liberal, and turn america around

Ye Nandro nice to see you here, and you are really enforcing what i said, with the improved LQs and low OB the advantage of a pop banker at start is that at 100% OB you make the same as a CFer on 300%

Starting pop on homeplanet is 5000 "mate" not 500 wink

And 1,055^13 = 2,01 meaning doubles in 13 ticks for a rev



As for the issue you are adressing;

To use your example of the 250 CFs for the CF banker. Say we have 2 teams, one with 3 CFers and one with 2 CFers and 1 popper.

You assume just 250 on all empires, and thus 136 for the popper; however that team can fix that by building just 20 LQs on the popper, and iinstead like 360 CFs on each popper. Then as the population grows they can gradually increase relative investment in the population banker, to reap bigger rewards from the higher profitability of pop banking.

Well first let me say it is a good discussion, however i believe you are being too narrowminded wink

Remember that this is only a theoretical exercise, you are ignoring so many factors that this is nowhere near how IC actually works.

One fact you seem to get wrong is that the pop banker needs about 50 ticks to double population, it takes only 13 ticks for a revalon to double his population, thus the homeplanet will be at 10k pop in 13 ticks after start

Still you are missing my main point tho, the fact that a constant stream of investment is not optimal in IC, coordinated jumps is the best way to grow!
