Topic: A round without resourcers

just a thought, with the new bonuses resulting the the higher income of resourcers and the apparent decline of market prices could it be possible to complete a round without resourcers.  If saying, the leader was sensible enough to maintain high stockpiles of endurium and octarine and could dictate the market.

Re: A round without resourcers

what you are sugesting makes no sense...

market prices are lower since resourcers produce more, thus their income remains the same cash wise.

That being said, yes you could play without resorucers

True, for within a fam.

But we all know Orbit plays in fams with no coordination and mostly SSness.  In which case doing what he suggested will raise the prices of resources on the market and benefit his style of play!

Re: A round without resourcers

Wouldn't work. With this few players and fams being overall SS-ish as a group it leads to a dead market.
You wouldn't be able to buy at a good enough rate to sustain growth without having your own resourcers in the fam.

Re: A round without resourcers

Yep, not so much the rate - but the amount of available resources.

Re: A round without resourcers

Well ive done this regularily the last 4-5 rounds, having wast overproduction of cash in my family (you may remmber the 4 popper families being twice the nw of the 2nd family for instance)

What you do is you just put the market at a relatively high price that you can actually afford and sustain (say 15-20 steady) have large bids there and you will eventually have stimulated the galaxy to overproduce and you will be able to buy up alot. However, if your banker of choice i CF bankers, i dont see why this would be attractive.
