[QUOTE="Edena_of_Neith, post: 1948182, member: 2020"] I'm almost certain we're going to need a practice Turn 1, but anyways ... Posted by Serpenteye: TOTAL IC OF EDENA OF NEITHS' POWER: 364,55 IC PL: Regular PL: 350 Elite PL: 50 Epic PL: 2 (not including PC) Eclavdra: 2 epPL The Regalia of Lordly Might: 1 epPL TOTAL VALUE OF PL: 1350 rPL From Edena: I am making guesses based on the above that I can do the following: I have 350 PL that can actually be spent to increase the value of my power for next turn. If I spent all 350 PL that way, my power would increase to 525 PL (350 x 1.5) I have 350 PL that can actually be spent on the technological arms race. If I spent it all on that, I'd advance 7 levels in that race (7 x 50 = 350) If I used non-devilish, non-polluting technology, I'd advance 5 ranks in that race (5 x 70 = 350) I have 350 PL that can actually be spent on building Regular Armies and/or building Regular Armies and upgrading them immediately to Elite Armies (or, Elite PL, since the terms are somewhat interchangeable.) So, I could build 350 Regular Armies on Turn 1. I could build 31 Regular Armies, and then upgrade them to 31 Elite Armies. (31 + 310 = 341, so I'd have 9 PL left over to spend another way.) I have 5 (and only 5) PL with which to spend on research in the magical arms race. Any PL spent in this fashion is lost (so if Eclavdra is spent, she is killed.) I have 50 Elite PL that could be upgraded immediately to Epic. (But only 50, since Regular Armies and PL and otherwise must be upgraded to Elite first.) If I spent all 350 PL I have to spend, I could upgrade 3.5 PL of the 50 Elite PL to Epic PL. In other words, I'm saying I cannot use the 50 Elite PL for any other purpose. I do NOT have 1,350 PL for the purpose of increasing my power's worth for next turn. I do NOT have 1,350 PL for the purpose of advancing in the technological arms race. I do NOT have 1,350 PL for the purpose of building armies. I am guessing that Infiltrating my power would cost 35 PL, since that is 1/10th the PL of my power. I am guessing that an attempt on my part to eject ONE (and only ONE) enemy spy would cost me 35 PL (1/10th the PL value of my power.) Thus, if 5 enemy players tried to infiltrate my power at once, I'd have to spend 175 PL to try and evict them all! (And might not be successful, at that!) I am guessing that to infiltrate the whole of any other power on the board costs 1/10th it's PL. So, if I want to infiltrate the whole of a power worth 400 PL, I must spend 40 PL to do it. These costs are in addition to the standard 1 PL spent to create a spy, and the standard 1 PL spent to try and detect a spy. If I am wrong about any of the above, then it can be rightly said I do not know what I am talking about. :) [/QUOTE]
