what are ur strats than? shouldnt you at least post where to find them?...

Since you have been around for a long time, im particulary interested in your CF/TO strat.

fer CF bankin':
it is kind o' necessary t' have droids an' keep agents, an' because o' th' dubloons that they take up ye want yer economy t' be at th' closest ye can get it t' 100%, also t' help ye make more cash ye want t' take a +10% t' pop (remember that a portalted planet has 'tis own plus t' pop), then if ye run out o' space t' raise economy ye can push welfare research fer more pop.
Ahoy, on a dead man's chest!

startin' out:
ye build half CF's half RC's with th' standard 10 MF's an' 5 RS's 5 OC's.

from then on ye only build CF's, with minimal RC's i no nay ne'er put more than 10 per planet.
Fire the cannons! 
always portal before ye OB, an' ye should start at 20 planets (CF's should portal every planet an' keep either a lot o' ground or fighters, not both).

i rarely use TO's when CF bankin' only when we have been in a war an' i dern't have many planets t' do thin's with....  they cost too much an' really dern't do enough fer th' expence.
And swab the deck! 

POP bankin':

o' course everyone starts out th' same with th' CF's, then usualy after 20 planets ye start switchin' them one planet at a time, an' buildin' every planet after that accordingly.

in this area TO's can be a phenominal blessin' t' yer cash flow, be cause ye got pop, an' bonus with out too many buildin's gettin' in th' way o' makin' it a bonus t' ye.

fer TO's t' work th' best ye need t' have 2x th' TO's as all other buildin's combined.

but remember that ye will need more wizzies than anythin' else, Ya swabbie! 
i usualy start with a 75% t' economy 25% t' welfare at BOR, an' 
then switch t' 50/50.

as far as planet build as i said before ye need twice as many TO's compared t' all other buildin's ye have fer them t' be worth it.

i would build out all TO's an' OB LQ's as needed, Ya lily livered swabbie, Dance the Hempen Jig
th' other thin' i would do as a POP banker is not portal every planet in a system, remember ye be very vulnerable as a pop banker, so stay as close t' th' core as ye can, an' very secure systems.

yer pop bankin' strat

they always make me dubloons, an' i dern't need a hella planets t' make it either.

i know it sucks, this pirate thin'.

but the thing i guess you don't realise is that you can go to 200% bonus on TO's, where as everything else is only 100%.
but the best way to make use of profit is to be safely in the core for a pop banker.
the CF can lose a planet and if they keep they're economy to at least 80% will even start to make money, or not lose as much by the loss of a planet.

Hord or (Horde), is when someone keeps something to themselves, they hord it, ie. BC Cougar horded all his strats by not sharing them but he has now decided too.

for CF banking:
it is kind of necessary to have droids and keep agents, and because of the money that they take in up-keep you want your economy to be at the closest you can get it to 100%, also to help you make more cash you want to take a +10% to pop (remember that a portalted planet has it's own plus to pop), then if you run out of space, to raise economy you can push welfare research for more pop.

starting out:
you build half CF's half RC's with the standard 10 MF's and 5 RS's 5 OC's.

from then on you only build CF's, with minimal RC's i never put more than 10 per planet.

always portal before you OB, and you should start at 20 planets building them.
CF's should portal every planet and keep either a lot of ground or fighters, not both).

i rarely use TO's when CF banking' only when we have been in a war and i don't have many planets to do things with....  they cost too much and really don't do enough for the expense as a CF.

POP banking:

of course everyone starts out the same with the CF's, then usually after 20 planets you start switching them one planet at a time, and building every planet after that accordingly to POP, meaning TO's and 10 RC's till you get your 200%, then build 2x the TO's that you build LQ's.

in this area TO's can be a phenomenal blessing to your cash flow, be cause you got pop, and bonus with out too many building's getting in the way of making it a bonus to you.

for TO's to work the best you need to have 2x the TO's as all other buildings combined.

but remember that you will need more wizzies than anything else,
i usually start with a 75% to economy 25% to welfare at BOR, and
then switch to 50/50.

as far as planet build as i said before you need twice as many TO's compared to all other buildings you have for them to be worth it.

i would build out all TO's and OB LQ's as needed, the other thing i would do as a POP banker, is not portal every planet in a system, remember you'll be very vulnerable as a pop banker, so stay as close to the core as you can, and in very secure systems.

Fighters = 3 nw      Bombers = 5 nw
Soldiers = 1 nw     Droids = 1 nw
Wizards = 1 nw     Agents = 1 nw
Transports = 6 nw     Buildings = 4 nw
Population = 0.025 nw     RP = 0.001 nw
Planets = 800 nw

in all cases you need to start watching your NW, because every gain in NW effects your bonuses, so you want to maximise cash, and limit expense.
so every time you build something your research will drop.

it is very funny to me how people have used my strats in the past, but make humor of the ones i have used and not told them about.
and then as soon as there exposed, will still use my strats, but act like they come up with them on they're own... i made the very first banker raid, i did the very first opper suprize, i was the first RC attacker.
and anyone who says different.... LOL i got the defence to them as well... so ask me, and if your not an arrogant prick then i will tell you but i will check with BC first to know who you are.
if they use what i know, i can give you the way to beat it as well.... thats part of comming up with anything.... you always know how to beat it first, before you use it..

you build half CF's half RC's with the standard 10 MF's and 5 RS's 5 OC's.

from then on you only build CF's, with minimal RC's i never put more than 10 per planet.

i rarely use TO's when CF bankin' only when we have been in a war an' i dern't have many planets t' do thin's with....  they cost too much an' really dern't do enough fer th' expence.
And swab the deck!

For the love of G-d, please keep hording your strategies.
