I am probably a newbee but how do you send a massage to any body from the main console, I can view my massages but I don't know how to send new massages ????

Next to someone's name, you'll see an icon that looks like a sheet of paper. Click it

Great, thanks for the replay, here is another one:

I have my first colony & I want the resources it produces, I have small cargo ships in my main plant, when I send them by transfer, they delver what they have put pick nothing..

Sorry about the headache & the stupid questions...

If you choose the "Deploy" mission, your ships will stay at the target planet, allowing you to send them back to your home with the res in another mission. There is currently not a "pick-up" option.

wow, guys you are great, I am really thankful.

OK, here comes another noob question:

In another post in this forum, they say that laser technology is useless + some others.

How can this be true I have 6th level laser technology, does this mean my resources has been spent for nothing ??
why are these technology are in the game then ???

They're useless after a certain point. You need them as a prerequisite for ships and defense, but after that, there's no use in leveling them.

You will need laser lvl 12 for battlecruisers (I think) so its not a waste unless you build it past lvl 12. Something like ion tech is an easy thing to waste stuff on because you only need it to lvl 5 and at that point its still really cheap (same with plasma to a bit lesser of an extent).

thats comforting, thanks.
OK, now I have heard of ninjatsu an attacker, How is this done ????
the travel time between the plants is very long & the fight resolve instantly if I am wrong !!!!

A simple example:

I see a hostile fleet going towards my planet A.
With my current fleet and defense on planet A, I would loose the battle.
So I send (deploy) a fleet to planet A so it would tilt the battle on my favor.
In this case your reinforcement should arrive on planet A before the attacker does.

There are lots more ways to do this using moons and jumpgates and ACS defend.

that confirm my suspicions, I am still way back in tech,
so I can have an alert that someone is going to attack me, does espionage provide this, if so at what level?

One more thing the zorg Rubies, how do you get them? , I found 1 use for them at the merchant, is there any other way to use them ??


Thanks for all the help you are providing.
