Can anybody take a guess at why I can’t send out any cultural goods treaty messages? It says I have no diplomatic points but I thought cultural goods were exempt. ---

Yup, one opened up, snagging it now. I’m enjoying this more now that I only check it every 3-4 days. I leave and spend all my $$ come back and its all back. ---

> [@Garick](#): > > Can anybody take a guess at why I can’t send out any cultural goods treaty messages? It says I have no diplomatic points but I thought cultural goods were exempt. What I found out is that if you have less goods than you have available spots, you can send out mass-mails asking for cultural treaties. I have 15 spots used on my four colonies, but I have 19 treaties… I can have 4 extra upgrades because I mass mailed while I had open spots 🙂 ---

I’m enjoying it more every day, the more trade ships I get. I can send out TONS of attacks and get back huge masses of resources now that I have 38 ships! I go for anyone that has a low scoring military that gives me $5000+ gold a pillage! REMEMBER, you can only attack a person 6 times in a 24 hour period!!! So, a max of 6 pillages at a time people 🙂 ---

I’m getting a lot closer to my 5th colony! Sadly, Im still a ways away… I’m pillaging constantly with all 38 ships, just trying to build up my resources! At my main location, I need to get the Palace to level 4. Requires: 49,536 wood, 11,008 wine, 27,520 marble and 22,016 crystal At all of my other locations, to stop the corruption, I need to get them all to level 3 before I get the 5th colony! Requires: 17,956 wood, 6,292 marble and 4,195 crystal. My resources right now: Colony 1 (Clean Baldy) Wood: 35,336 – need 14,200 Wine: 5,671 – need 5,300 Marble: 12,382 – need 15,138 Crystal: 17,205 – need 4,800 Colony 2 (Clean Shaven) Wood: 12,735 – need 5,230 Marble: 6,394 – need NONE Crystal: 1,578 – need 2,620 Colony 3 (Clean Your Room) Wood: 14,489 – Need 3,450 Marble: 1,459 – Need 4,850 Crystal: 2,034 – Need 2,160 Colony 4 (Clean Up Isle 2) Wood: 8,985 – Need 9,000 Marble: 1,172 – Need 5,125 Crystal: 2,563 – Need 1,650 ---

> [@ryanmcell](#): > > I think it’s safe to say Jeff has taken this game from time waster to obsession… lol It doesnt take much time to come on and pillage 🙂 With 38 ships, I just put 12 attacks in queue and come check it in a bit. Im an efficient time waster 😛 It’s fun being in the top 150. I’m also in the top 40 for military. Nobody will fuck with me… so, I just take what I want. LOL I send out spies to find people with 10,000 or less military with level 4 or 5 trading ports! I send 20 flame ships to blockade and get 60 archers attacking. I then have 5 other pillages going with 5 troops each, and they all come back with goods 🙂 ---
