Plan

have you guys created a basic plan yet? If not, I would suggest this one...

Step1: Find strong Allies to harbor the alliance until we can defend ourselves
Step2: Begin raids on lesser, prefferebly solo players
*spend time searching for poorly defended player that have built up a large stockpile*
Step3: Colonies, fortress systems and stronghold systems

Colonies - SPeaks form itseld

Fortress systems- fortress system is comprised of two or more planets of the same players controll

Harvesting World - One planet will have a shipyard(for solar sattelites) and several other constuction facilities, but will almost entire focus on Metal, crystal and Dueterium production.

Fortress World - The second planet should have high level shipyards and high level robotics facilities. This planet will also have a high level of defense, as it will be your main shipyard in the game.
*note-keep a large transport fleet in-system to transport materials to the shipyard*


Stronghold System - The last phase of step 3 would not fully be complete untill late in the game. several alliance players will fill up a system or two and establish adequate shipyards, resources structures and research facilities on their planet. Moons will be created for jump gates.

Step4: While it may come before or after step 3, war is needed to exterminate the status of the competition.

Step5: Ultimately, our goal is to get more players to join our clan and to make the top ten or better.

Also it is a good idea to raid inactive players as much as possible before raiding active ones, this way there will not be resistance.

this is why we need a hwf thread: to recruit more players

........we already have a halo wars thread their.....

it's nearly off the page though!
no i mean a ogame thread on hwf

Yea its there, just post in it to bump it

ok when you start, you want to raid players that are inactive. they are more likely to have no defences.

Just be careful who you raid.

Like I said, when you start, you should only raid inactives.

we can also recuit on the ogame forum. i can get one started..

um... *had a thought.* if we are the Spirit of Fire. which is a Halo Wars forum alliance... should we require that all members be part of that forum before they can be a member of our alliance?

I don't think we should really be recruting. We are a moderately large sized alliance full of members that know eachother. Do we really want to add a bunch of people we don't know into it?

We could for a shock army(we could put them under a seperat branch, like SoF:ST[Spirit of Fire Shock Trrops)

We could use them to take the brunt of enemy froces while we support them and focus ont eh harder ones.

Sorta like if we were immmortals and they were Slave infantry in the persian army.

that's always fun.
i did my first raid yesterday, and im already ready for another.

We may just start up a branched alliance in the futer if we become really successful with us senior types running the original.

Well, my entire system is filled with people who have been inactive for almost 28 days. There all gonna get kicked out one by and i'm gonna control the whole syetm. =D. But i have 3 worlds already in which 2 all just purely Harvest planets.

Well you need to raid the hell out of them and tell me their coords

I can't their all under newbie protection or in vacation mode.
