this is a free game in a browser based on 4x expanding and negotiation. im thinking of hosting a custom game so we at the forums can have fun brutally murdering each other and messing around
http://triton.ironhelmet.com/
linky. once i get a few responses we will start it.
-
Alright, let me look through the tutorials so I have an idea of how to play and I'd be up for it. Don't think I've ever played a 4x game before.
-
Browser based 4x? Exodus may like.
-
oh, so that is at least 4. if we get a few more i will get the game posted here.
-
ok, so i cant make a game without a premium account. fuck me. so, we will have to join a random game together.
-
*slurp slurp*
Mmm... sorry those ramens are pretty good. Anyways yeah, this looks cool.
-
So, how are we going to join a random game together?
-
i join it, and post the code for the game here so you guys can flash join.
-
So we're gonna do some party crashing. Sounds fun.
-
yeah, kinda hard to find a decent game.
lemme look, keep pressing f5, i want to get at least a few of us into this.
-
OK I FOUND A GAME!
EVERYONE JOIN THIS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE
http://triton.ironhelmet.com/game/4878427497693184
GO THERE AFTER YOU HAVE MADE AN ACCOUNT
-
I will join! I heard something 'bout tutorials, will have to do them first.
-
I will join! I heard something 'bout tutorials, will have to do them first.
the tutorials are videos.
-
Joined as Tando.
-
Joined, and watched a few tutorial videos, still have no idea, though it may just be I'm too tired right now. Anyway, hope I enjoy this.
-
Vulnussss, wanna be buddies?
-
...maybe, really reluctant to trust people do. don't want to get stabbed in the back...
-
Vulnus, i wont stab you in the back!
*Calmly puts down Macbeth.*
-
Seems interesting I think I might hop on.
-
So, I guess we've started.
I don't quite know how to play just yet but I'm gradually putting it together that I'm going to really love this game...
-
Only thing I'm uncertain of is how combat works, but I'll figure it out...well aside from a couple of questions.
So we get money every X hours, and the amount is determined by our economy right?
And how long research takes is affected by our science?
-
yes, and industry is .25 ships/ hour at base level. combat is just math based on weapon tech.
-
I'm definitely going heavy industry, just seems like the wisest move in my opinion.
-
Well I am Bubbadoo on there, like always.
Also Rhodri there is a premium mantid race you can play as. ;)
-
well, me and Hibou are ahead of yall when it comes to stars controlled.
-
I'm working on it...
-
im worried about red and orange. look at their win counts......
i mean, i won a game by being a complete opportunistic asshole, but 19 games....
-
well, i got a goodish start up here in the northlands. and i bought 6 carriers, so i should grow rapidly.
-
I'm really tempted to join in on this but I'm awful with any game that requires me to check up on it a few times a day over a long period of time, I'd check it for a few days and then just forget about it for a little while.
-
Shhhhhhiiiiiiiiiiiit. My friend and ally got taken over by the Ai, so I am FUCKED. I have to fight him, as AI don't listen to reason, so any money/tech you can send would be awesome.
-
I'm gonna try this. It's not like I have anything better to do.
EDIT: Dammit, the game is full.
-
Huh, so Peri. That guy was your ally? He was making a NAP and planning to tech trade with me.
-
Same here...sounds like he was playing us.
-
I'm kicking the AI s ass right now though, and once he is out of the way I will DOUBLE in size, ship production, and tech. I'm so happy.
-
also, this is what a neptunes pride war looks like.

ok, combat is based on how much tech you have. ships act as hit points, and you always deal your weapon tech in damage every combat round until one or both of you are out of ships. defender gets an effective +1 to weapon tech.
-
also, when i pass you guys the hyperspace tech, make sure orange doesn't get it for as long as possible. i do NOT want him crossing the gulf in between us until im ready.
also, when at war, try to check on the game ever 3 hours or so. preferably more.
-
one hour to money and power.
-
So, whos gonna kick off the first real war.
Also dang, im in the worst position of the game...
-
once im done with red, we can roflstomp orange together.
-
Pay period just happened, everyone come and grab her dough. And pass the leftovers to me, I'm in war.
-
sent you the spare cash I had after upgrading minimally.
-
Pay period just happened, everyone come and grab her dough. And pass the leftovers to me, I'm in war.
I gave you manufacturing technology, so you could produce faster, and terraforming so buying economy/industry/science is cheaper. I also gave you a WHOLE $2!!!!!!!

Jesus. I was not expecting much tech. This helps, I will remember your guys contributions.

Man I am saddened that I didn't get into your guy's game.
-
We are all such ballers.
-
Man I am saddened that I didn't get into your guy's game.
next game lets all try to get in faster.
-
Ok, who here is feeding Orange technology? I know one of you lot is, so....
-
not me
-
After examining more closely, looks like he kicked out on an exparamentation roll.

It's also possible he's sharing tech with Taxion Creel, whom I don't think is any of us.
-
Considered sharing tech, didnt tho. Wqnna kill them both guys?
-

I already have a plan. Basicly I pour tech down a funnel, and we all invade at once here in a bit.
-
Man I am saddened that I didn't get into your guy's game.

Well can't you have multiple games going at once though? The way the menu looks like I would think so.

Free accounts only get two. I'll drop out of my non forum game tonight, and get us another one going. For you bubbadoo.
-
Also, I'm handing this AI his arse on a platter. 10 stars in a day is LIGHTNING fast in this game. I cannot wait until it is all mine! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. You guys should be fine. I've got pink and orange to take out first.
-
Don't worry Peri, I'm growing fine down where I am too. Vulnus is such a nice guy.
-

Thanks for launching that distraction. I don't k ow how you do it, but if you can keep him out of my hair for a while, I'll reward you. Don't fight him though, he is too good at this game.
-
Fuck. Orange is being a bloody vulture. Taking some of that red space.
-
Happens, he hasn't responded to my distraction but it was like 3 paragraphs of the best silver I could spew.
-
...Gee exo, I didn't know buffing up my planets because you were invading my ass was nice.
-
...Gee exo, I didn't know buffing up my planets because you were invading my ass was nice.
wait, are you at war? Welcome to neptunes pride.
-
Also, I had to sacrifice reds homeworlds to the orange scum so I wouldn't get roflstomped.
-
Actually, exodus, take beetleguese. Then, after I trade tech to you, we will invade orange together. I have to divert suspicion now, but later it will happen.
-
Busy eating Vulnus.

Busy eating Vulnus.
after that.
-
Hehe, alright.
-
hey guys, after this is all over, want to do a write up on how it went down from your perspectives at the end? might be an interesting story.
-
Sure. Vulnus, how in blazes did u gain 30 more ships?
-
Sure. Vulnus, how in blazes did u gain 30 more ships?
By buying a fuckton of industry, most likely.
-
i mean like this write up
http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2010/03/18/the-complete-pride-and-falls/
its a great story, and a good guide on how to play. it is quite outdated, being from the original version of the game, but its still a good read.
-
I have my ways.
-
Vulnus you dirty cheater Vulnus, you amazingly well thought out strategist you.
-
look at the numbers. I have more ships then you, by almost fourty or so. I'm merely transfering more ships your way.
-
Can we get some screen-shots of you guys murdering each other?
-
That's fine Vulnus, I'm still playing a bit more cleverly so I'm fine.
-
Can we get some screen-shots of you guys murdering each other?
it just looks like a start chart. plus, i dont want to give away my secrets. after it is over we will try to do a diary type thing.
actually, ill just give vague state of the galaxy things.
here is a screencap of the game
(http://i.imgur.com/y0YJi4c.jpg)
im the massive purple blob up at the top, franticly negotiating with orange and chewing red into little chunks for my empire. everyone else here can say what is happening between them here.
-
I'm dark Blue, currently nomming on Vulnus a bit who is light blue.
Vulnus, you done goofed mate.
-
how about we keep discussion of the game civil?
Anyway, not really.
-
I'm trying to keep it civil enough.
No, but really, pulling your ships out was a bad tactical decision.
-
I'm trying to keep it civil enough.
No, but really, pulling your ships out was a bad tactical decision.
if you learn to game the system, and effective tactic is a strategic retreat where you put as many ships exactly as needed, and you can do an insane ammount of attrition damage that way.
-
That's fair enough. I suppose he's simply regrouping which is fine, but it does mean i'll easily have gained two stars and have an easy gateway
-
uh no. You have to pass a specific star to get to my other planets. guess where a bunch of units are going. Smart decision on my part I think.
-
Indeed, I'm doing the same...though I think I've got a nice plan.
-
Two minutes until pay.
-
Money time!
-
I just traded off about 5 of reds remaining stars to orange in exchange for some of his land on the "Mainland" where you blokes are. I'm coming.
-
...shit...I don't need more people trying to kill me right now...
-
...shit...I don't need more people trying to kill me right now...
I still have to go through Pinkerton first, so...
-
Pinkerton. Lol.
-
I'm the green one, who is caught in the middle of the Vulnus-Exodus war because I'm allied to both of them. ;-;
-
Rhodri, the green one is now fighting me, the light blue one, as well.
He offered to buy me pizza...and then he backed out...cri.

worry not. you still have a massively powerful ally up here. expect the tech to flow.
-
also, what happens in game, stays in game.
-
well, the dang game forgot I edited a course for one of my ships, so it's now hurtling towards Tando's planet...yay.
-
Ay Perigrin, when are you making the second game?

I am tempted to go play F:NV but I can't or I might miss Perigrin finding the empty game. (finally)
EDIT: How about we all join the 64 player game? That sounds like fun.

money time in game 1
-
Hate missing money time...
-
MUHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAA
-
Did something happen?
-
oh, i got FUCKED in the new game. look at my start. i cant reach most of those stars until i tech up. FAAAAAK.
also, in response to evil laugh, some plans with the non forumites are coming to fruition. basically i traded two of reds stars for 6 of his.
-
Meanwhile im fighting a two way war and surprisingly dealing with it well.

because i am holding your mouth open and funneling tech down it. you have a MASSIVE advantage on them you know

Yeah. Peri is my lifeline.

Dang Rhodri.

Money time in both games.
-
Money for the money gods!
-
Money for the money gods!
I made you an offer.

Ballsy move Bubbadoo.
*Evil plotting* >:D
Anyone have $7 in-game? I could use it right about now. $7 in-game dollars could win you a powerful ally. (In the second game) EDIT: Nevermind, [REDACTED] gave me some money.
-
I am in need for $63 to help wreck Rhodri's shit. I will pay you back payroll but I need the money as soon as I can.
Nevermind, someone awesome gave me the money! Thanks person who knows who I am talking about. ;)

You do realize the planets of mine that you're attacking are right next to my main planet? Any shit of mine that you wreck will be quickly recovered.

Well do YOU realize that I have more ships and industry then you? Also the fact that you are fighting a 2 way war with me AND Perigrin, whom are allied to each other.
-
You have BARELY more industry. In the long run, if he plays his cards right, he could outrun you Industry wise, if he spends cash smartly.

I may have barely more industry but I also have 21 more ships, his forces are also split fighting Perigrin too and maybe you? Or are you allied to Rhodri because you seem to be holding the choke point over there.
-
While everyone's at war, I'm just sitting at the edge of the galaxy playing this on repeat.

Double-posting because fuck you that's why.
A warning for us all:
mrnich04 seems to have a lot of tech-trade agreements. I think his plan is to use the resulting technological advantage to kick everyone's asses. I advise you to refuse any tech-trade offers from him, if you haven't accepted yet.

Let me kill you already dammit. You and your pesky 2 carriers and 16 ships.

Hey, what happened to sharing the game with the rest of us?
-
Nothing is happening first game...just endless war.

Nothing is happening first game...just endless war.
I love how, despite the tech funnel, i STILL managed to cross the galaxy, take out an AI, have a plan to take out another AI, and start invading Vulnus before you could eliminate him.
-
He has Rhodri. I havent lost any ground against a two front war and they match tech almost immediately.
-
Ahem, in first game: ATTACK! ATTACK! JUST FUCK IT ALL AND ATTACK!
Second game: I am unsure of what is going to happen, time to reinforce the border with a couple hundred ships.
-
IM COMING FOR YOU MADDAFAKKA!
also, sorry for killing your ass in the second game Rhodri, but you almost literally asked for it.
-
Welp, first game is pretty well lost, and second I'm beginning to wage war with Bubbadoo. All in all I think I'm doing better then I thought I would.
-
Mother of god I am stuck in a three way war with Vulnus, bigman, and Mr. Nich. I am SCREEEWWED.
-
hey, im not involved in the war with bubbadoo. i will sell to both sides, just send me the money.
-
If you ever played FarCry 2, you're basically The Jackal right now, Peri.

[Loads a' Money playing in the distance]
Seriously though I haven't been in any fights. Like, at all. It's kind of boring, actually.
-
If you ever played FarCry 2, you're basically The Jackal right now, Peri.
one of my favorite games ever right there. with a few mods, of course.
-
What mods? I haven't been able to find any.
-
Question: How much money is gained from each point in economy we have?
-
10$ per cycle per economy, and farcry 2 has a moddb page with some neat mods and ENB. a certain graphics mod, a mod which makes enemies die faster (they are SO bullet spongy in vanilla), and a coupla others are my current presets.
-
I'm sorry Bubbadoo, but us vultures gotta eat too.
-
Literally everyone wants me dead. Vulnus, bigman, Mrnich, my own fucking ally Perigrin. The only one who is not killing me is Hibou, I am giving him 4 renown for not being an asshole.

Did killing Rhodri mean nothing to you? Maybe I should have helped him kill you, he may have actually been a better ally, who knows, he might not 've stabbed me in the back.
-
Isn't Neptune's Pride 2 like 99% backstabbing anyway? The only reason you should be making alliances is to buy more time so you can kill them later in the game.

this. Dude, I'm sorry, but allegiances change momentarily. I showed a friend both games I am in right now, and explained what was happening to him. He said this.
"Jesus dude, you are the ideal ruler. Completely without empathy or remorse. How do you sleep at night?"
Advantages dear bubbadoo, trust no one in this game.

Perigrin confirmed for future World Leader.

PERIGRIN WHAT WILL YOUR POLICIES BE ON NON-FURRY SEX?!

PERIGRIN WHAT WILL YOUR POLICIES BE ON NON-FURRY SEX?!

Hey Perigrin, bigman decided to spare me and just fight you. I have also given him some intel of your carriers and planets I see as thanks also for the fact that you stabbed me in the fucking back. ;D
So I suggest you,
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=geHLdg_VNww
-
I'm proud bubbadoo. You learn well. He is going to back stab you hard-core though.
-
Well. it seems that there are two candidates for winners in the 1st game: Court Larls or Perigrin. I'm voting Larls, for no reason other than to be a bastard.

Your next after Vulnus now.
Actually, he will win if we keep fighting amongst each other like this. I think I recall you losing ground to him if I looked at the Peri/Larls border correctly. He is a force we must work together to stop.
-
I have two planets left in the first game.
-
I have two planets left in the first game.
And nearly the same amount of ships as me. You can still do this with some aggression to Larls's planets.
-
Just gonna fortress down for a bit actually.
-
AHAHAHAHAHA! ALL YOUR BASE ARE MINE VULNIS!!!!!! ALL OF YOUR BASE I SAY!
-
Welp looks like bigman and Mrnich have basically won.
-
Welp looks like bigman and Mrnich have basically won.
yeah, I conceded deafeat. I didn't want to sit through 6 days of roflstomping.

In other words in a different game not involving the forum I had a good ally who didn't stab me in the back and let me get 2nd place.
-

You could have gotten 3rd place and get the rank up from that.
-
Why, why, WHY is Rhodri doing so well against me in game one. I have five times the ships, I just can't get them to the front as fast as he can, GODDAMIT RHODRI!
-
GODDAMIT RHODRI, WHAT KINDA TERMINATOR SHIT ARE YOU? DIIIIIIIIIIE!
no hard feelings, I'm just bad at long term management.
-
The first game has been going on for nearly 40 days (about 20 minutes less than 40 days) and still counting. These sure as hell take a long time.
(http://i.imgur.com/Sb8xc5K.png?1)
I remember when Peri nearly took over my all of my stars. That was so long ago.

-
Can we make a new game meanwhile? I missed the game :(
-
At just an hour short of 43 days, the Neptune's Pride game, Iota Sualocin, has ended with Peri having only has 2 stars remaining. Court Larls was the winner, with me in second and Hibou in third.
With the game now finished, I shall reveal that Court Larls was funding me during my war with Peri.

Aside from Rhodri pumping me full of weapons tech with our anti-aggression agreement, I ran pretty solo that time around. So far that tactic hasn't been going very well for me; I got decimated in the other game and in this one I didn't get rekt just because both my neighbors were pretty cool.
I was wondering how you were funding yourself, Rhodri. That 15 economy you had for a while was looking pretty meager.

I, umm, dropped out of that game because i got bored of it. will try next game to paly better. not tonight though, too tired.

There's an experimental 64 player Neptune's Pride game that we can join. 50 more players are needed before it can start. I'll join as "Rhodri the Coward" with the same race as last time.

Not when you end up like me playing it and get caught in a four way war and only last 4 days.

That's why diplomacy is important.

That's why planning ahead is important. You may have had a chance at diplomatic stuff before they started being asses, but it was too late.

Shameless necromancy ho!
I have a story from a 64-player game I was in:
So I had an unlucky start, as nearly all stars were out of my reach, so while I was safe from attackers, it means I would be at a disadvantage due to a lack of expansion. I decided to ally with a purple-elf guy south of me, but he was soon overpowered by some robot-insect guy, who was kind enough to ally with me. I eagerly agreed, as he was strong and could shield me from other players south. I soon got some tech that allowed me to reach stars north of me, and the first person north of me had a dozen or so stars and was just an A.I., so presumably he quit the game.
The A.I. is nothing special, so I ended up taking its stars. There were other A.I. even further up to my north and some to the east, but I let them be as they shielded me from some extremely strong players, and had many ships per star, so instead I attacked a player west of me. (Who wasn't an A.I., for once.)
He was about equal strength to me, so it ended up a stalemate. By then things have taken a turn for the worse. My ally down south was beginning to be overtaken by an alliance of two or so players, and the A.I. east of me was being taken by the player it was shielding me from. The player I was attacking was being taken by someone north of him, who allied with me. The only way I could expand was east, towards a player who was producing thousands more ships than I was, and greatly overpowered me. It seems 10 or so people let me join in on a joint effort to take him down, which was convenient.
Unluckily, the hope that the amount of players attacking him would make him pull back his ships didn't work in my case, as he took the difference in power to his advantage and took nearly all my stars, and my new ally took the my stars that were on his border.
Soon I realized my new ally's reason for doing this, as he left one of my stars alone. It was because he didn't want to let me completely die to the hands of the enemy that took most of my empire. Thus, he kept my one star protected by surrounding it and keeping it safe from the enemy. In gratitude, I sent him any tech I could.
I soon forgot about the round and didn't see it through the end, though.
So, anyone want to try and claim a galaxy for the UMA (Utterly Mad Alliance)?
We could do a 64 player game and get obliterated hope that we end up as neighbors to protect eachother, or at least try to survive until we end up neighboring eachother to steamroll everyone.
Or we could do a regular game and steamroll much easier.

Mabye tomorrow. I'm too tired to do anything but idly post right now.

ARISE THREAD LONG DEAD
I just got thinking that we should do this again, once we gather a few people i will start it, much like last time
-
I'm up for it. Still probably suck at the whole politics thing though.
-
I guess i MAYBE MIGHT try something.
