View Full Version : Borrowing resources for village



gus
3rd December 2007, 04:53 PM
I would like to establish my second village, but I am going to need to consume the following resources to do it:
Wood: 34740
Clay: 29655
Iron: 32065
Food: 21880

My current production rate is: 350|350|350|308

I was therefore wondering if I can borrow some resources? I shall take anything I can get. I shall pay 5% interest per day on anything I borrow. I should be able to pay back all loans within a week at most, but would hope to pay back most within 4 to 5 days. Anybody interested in helping please?

Loan account:
Onyx - 300 crop - 3 December - Repaying 360 crops - 7 December
Askari - 300 iron - 3 December - Repaying 360 iron - 7 December
Stool - 200|300|300|200 - 3 December - Repaying 240|360|360|240 - 7 December
Stoke - 300 iron - 4 December - Repaying 345 - 7 December
Lycanking - 505|100|100|500 - 4 December - Repaying 605|120|120|600 - 8 December
Titan - 300|200|0|0 - 4 December - Repaying 360|240|0|0 - 8 December
SaintMG - 750 iron - 5 December - Repaying 863 iron - 8 December
Craime - 750 iron - 5 December - Repaying 900 clay - 9 December
Firefox - 400|0|450|0 - 5 December - Repaying 270|250|250|250 - 9 December
Titan - 0|0|250|250 - 5 December - Replaying 0|0|288|288 - 8 December
Veer447 - 300 iron - 5 December - Repaying 330 iron - 7 December

I am absolutely fabulously interested. Let me finish the Assembly level 9 and then you can have everything I make. But, how do I get it to you? I'm not allowed to give you resources over and over. So, I am thinking, as soon as I hit 1000 of anything, i'll send my peeps over, but that's going to happen before 48 hours is up ... um ... eeek.

I would prefer not to borrow more than say 300 per resource type from anybody. I do not want to affect your village economies too much. Maybe just send me some if you have a balance before you go to bed tonight.

Thanks for the offers.

I can send you some mielies/crop/popcorn.

I seem to have too much of it (for now) and would rather send to you what I don't need now than have it stolen in raids.

300 on its way :)

(It will get there some time tomorrow - 17:55:...h and counting)

Thanks for the help so far. Busy building level 8 residence. I got a bit of a fright when I got scanned during the night, since I currently need to stockpile more resources than my cranny can protect to cover the big building costs for each level of the residence. Fortunately I thing the scanner figured he will loose more in troop value than he will be able to carry away, since I have turtled up a bit at the moment.

@Gus, got scanned??(how does that work?)

@Saint...had spare, thought u might need some stuffs ;) (rather us guys have it than some other raiding moron)

Scanned = scouted. A player sent some scouts to look at my troop size and resources. If the player being scouted does not have scouts, he does not even know he is being scouted. I have two scouts so that I know I am being scouted, at least for smallish scout forces. Note, for a scouting sortie, one only sends scouts and no other troops on a normal attack. One can then pick to scout defenses or resources. For you, scouts are "Equites Legati".

Titan, if you have spare, please note I am currently paying interest on spare resources. See first post for details.

Tx Gus for the info, I sent the spare resources before your post, if I have more I'll gladly send them along ;)

Thanks Saint and craime. Good thing I increased my warehouse size before I went to bed last night.

gus

Thanks for all the loans. :bow: I think I have borrowed as much as I can pay back, so please do not send any more. I should be able to build my first settler in about 5 hours.

No interest need be payed. At least not to me. Sorry I only read this now. Do you still need anything?

gus

I am currently saved up halfway for my second settler. Thanks for the offer, But better not to send more, because I am going to start struggling to pay back in a reasonable time.

No need to pay me back either.

i also suggest u send what u owe these charity geeks to me :gyes:

gus

Thanks guys, but I promised to pay back, so I have to.

Current status is second settler under construction and I shall hopefully build the last one tonight.

gus

I am starting to make repayments, thanks.

Must say, it was really scary to build the settlers. A raid while I had all three settlers in my village last night would have killed 70K worth of resources. :eek:

Secrecy is becoming quite important. If one of our nu members are a spy ... well ... :eek:

gus
7th December 2007, 09:04 AM
I sent my first settler along on a raid to a dead village 12 hours away to keep him safe. Both settlers also went on a raid while the third one was being built. It was only for about an hour that all three were at risk. :D

Clever.
I wonder ... if you meet another attacking army at the destination at the same-time, are you at risk?

gus
7th December 2007, 09:59 AM
I suspect/hope attacks are considered instantaneous.

stoke
7th December 2007, 10:28 AM
Yea, methinks that would be a tricky war situation requiring extra coding ... nobody likes extra coding.

gus
7th December 2007, 10:31 AM
Yes, my thoughts as well Stoke.

I have only 7 merchants and they are currently all on the road with repayments. I shall have some back this evening, at which point I can make more payments. Sorry for the delays.

gus

Thank you very much for the help. I believe I have now repaid everything. Please let me know if I missed some.

Onyx

Thanks Gus. :)

(I have so much 'crop' that you really didn't have to send anything back ;))

9th December 2007, 07:46 PM
haha u sent it all whilst my warehouse was full ... sigh hehe

gus
9th December 2007, 08:36 PM
Then spend your resources or increase the size of your warehouse. :D Also, I think you had something like 12 hours advance warning before the resources arrived. Good idea to check your merchant once or twice a day to check resource movements.

Tks, Gus. All square then.
