Round 1 of 12
zsteelersman: wach and learn
zsteelersman: yo0u must catch the wampus
zsteelersman: he is always oin a mountain range that is unowned
zsteelersman: he blips twice on the screen so you can see where he is at
zsteelersman: then you go up into the mountain where he blipped and you press space bar
zsteelersman: he gives you 100 dollars to let him go
zsteelersman: good players always catch the wampus so you will ave extra money
zsteelersman: then you can "assay" property to see if you have any crystite on your land
zsteelersman: i will do that now and then you must always end your turn in the pub
zsteelersman: if you do not end our turn oin the pub you will not win any money at the end of your round
zsteelersman: watch
zsteelersman: go
zsteelersman: ok great you caught the wampus
zsteelersman: but missed the pub
zsteelersman: do at least one of the two
supertrouper02: what is the pub
zsteelersman: the pub is right next to the station where you buy your mules
zsteelersman: you gamble at the end of your tuern
zsteelersman: energy down food is u[p
zsteelersman: did you see that
zsteelersman: ?
supertrouper02: no
zsteelersman: nobody produced smithore
zsteelersman: smithore is used to build mules
zsteelersman: when the store runs out the price goes way up
zsteelersman: nobody produced crystite
zsteelersman: food is $50
zsteelersman: you can sell
zsteelersman: if you want
zsteelersman: if you hold onto the food it spoiuls
zsteelersman: you should have sold your food
supertrouper02: i couldnt move
zsteelersman: watch me sell
zsteelersman: see i sold my energy to the folks for $45 a share of energy
zsteelersman: if the colony runs short i can set the price real high
zsteelersman: everyone made food noone produced energy
zsteelersman: thus i am in first plae
Round 2 of 12
zsteelersman: you want to keep your colony close together if you can
supertrouper02: you stole something
zsteelersman: what did i steal?
supertrouper02: idk
zsteelersman: i caught the wampus planted a mule and assayed some land
supertrouper02: it popped up on my screen and said you stole something from me
supertrouper02: weird
zsteelersman: you need to decide now what you will plant
zsteelersman: ready?
zsteelersman: go
zsteelersman: the price will go high
zsteelersman: i dont have any food but everyone is growing it
zsteelersman: i shouldnt have been talking to you
zsteelersman: he sold his to the store
zsteelersman: $10 is super cheap for energy
zsteelersman: so i will buy it if they sell it
zsteelersman: you have to press space bar to move forwrd
Round 3 of 12
zsteelersman: when you find a high crystite
zsteelersman: the four adjacent plots of land are all mediums
zsteelersman: then the ones farther out are lows
zsteelersman: there are four highs on the board
zsteelersman: at the end of each prduction something bad (or good ) happens
zsteelersman: u r up
zsteelersman: go
zsteelersman: good
zsteelersman: when you assay property it plants a sign for you to remember how much crystite was found
zsteelersman: fire in the store
zsteelersman: bad
zsteelersman: everythingi am not going to let them sell to the store
zsteelersman: i want the proice to go high
zsteelersman: the price for smothore and mules is about to skyrocket
zsteelersman: no do not sell unles they go high
zsteelersman: i they do not pay
zsteelersman: they do not get to produce
zsteelersman: it takes one thing of energy to run a plot
zsteelersman: so if you look at your stats you have 7 energy bars
zsteelersman: you could run up to seven plots of land with that
zsteelersman: energy mules do not require energy to run
zsteelersman: if someone ever refuses to sell you energy you need to convert your muiles to energy or you will not produce anything
zsteelersman: on a random plot o land
zsteelersman: adam and bill will plant energy this turn because they are short
supertrouper02: i don't understand that
zsteelersman: ok if i am running a food mule
zsteelersman: it requires one bar of energy to run it for a round
supertrouper02: oh i think i get it
zsteelersman: now food affects how much time you have
supertrouper02: you change it to an energy mule
zsteelersman: if you do not have the right amount
zsteelersman: you will not get as much ttime
zsteelersman: so if no one sells you food and you do not grow any then you will have no time to work your plots
zsteelersman: if you do not have energy you can not produce on your plots
zsteelersman: if there is no smithore the store cannot make and sell mules
zsteelersman: if you notice the store is down to 6 mules and the smithore in the store nurned up in the fore
zsteelersman: therefore the smithore that i and my colleagues posses is the only smithore available
zsteelersman: the price will skyrocket
Round 4 of 12
zsteelersman: you got the plot i wanted
zsteelersman: ervey time a plot is sold
zsteelersman: u ru up
zsteelersman: after two blips the wombat moves to another mountain
supertrouper02: oh
zsteelersman: he is always in the of the mountain
supertrouper02: i was wondering why that happened because i saw it there
zsteelersman: you do not need o press the button at the bottom of the mountain
zsteelersman: if you noticed i bought all of the remaining mules and released them
supertrouper02: yes
zsteelersman: a trick to drive up the proce
zsteelersman: also i did not allow the fellow after me to buy a mule
zsteelersman: he was stuck
zsteelersman: the store has no mules the proice will go very high
zsteelersman: earthquake halves the production of minin
zsteelersman: mining
zsteelersman: im loaded
zsteelersman: the price of mules will now be much higher
zsteelersman: the store has to sell the mules at a higher price becasue smithore is so hiugh
zsteelersman: they want to sell but they do not want to sell to me
Round 5 of 12
zsteelersman: ok i found out the plot at the bottom was high crystite so i switched my production
supertrouper02: how did you switch
zsteelersman: i now am mining on the bottom for cyrstite
zsteelersman: you can pick up a mule off a plot of land by hitting space bar
zsteelersman: then you walk him to anoher site and set him down by pressing space bar again
zsteelersman: u
zsteelersman: u
zsteelersman: u
zsteelersman: if you notice the price for mules is at $290
zsteelersman: its medium bcuz the spot below is hight
supertrouper02: that's why i went there
zsteelersman: there is no need to assay it htough
supertrouper02: can i go to the high one
zsteelersman: everyone will know it is medium bcuz the spt below is high
supertrouper02: so you can just go there
zsteelersman: you assay just to see how much is on the land
zsteelersman: to determine if you want to mine it for crysitte
zsteelersman: you have to buy the land
zsteelersman: or get it throuhg the pick stage
Round 6 of 12
zsteelersman: ?????
zsteelersman: u missed land
supertrouper02: oops

supertrouper02: yes
zsteelersman: you have to get the hang of the economy
zsteelersman: what causes prices to go up and down etc
zsteelersman: TOP PART OF THE MOUNTAIN
zsteelersman: you keep trying to catch him at the bottom
zsteelersman: he is in the top part of the mountain

zsteelersman: tite is a random price between 60 and like 140
zsteelersman: you never know wht the price will be
zsteelersman: i but the energy so that i do not have to produce it
zsteelersman: that is what makes human opponents much tougher than bots
zsteelersman: they will not sell you food and energy cheap
Round 8 of 12
zsteelersman: opponents will also buy all the energy so that you cant produce
zsteelersman: buy up all of the food so you cannot have time to work your plots
zsteelersman: it is a cuthroat style of business
zsteelersman: use up all of the mules
zsteelersman: by letting them go after purchase
supertrouper02: did it run away
zsteelersman: yes that is called radiation
zsteelersman: it makes one mule on the board go crazy and run away
zsteelersman: it usually happens to the person in first place
zsteelersman: bad events almost always happen to first or second place folks
zsteelersman: good events happen to third and fourth place folks
zsteelersman: SELL SELL
supertrouper02: whoa
zsteelersman: i am selling to keep the price low
zsteelersman: bcuz they made all of that smihore
supertrouper02: how
zsteelersman: if the price goes high they get rich
zsteelersman: so i sell to keep their price low
zsteelersman: the tite price is making me rich
zsteelersman: see you could hurt me by buying the food in front of me
zsteelersman: uh oh
zsteelersman: energy shortage
zsteelersman: u should never sell energy that cheap
zsteelersman: if you buy a plot of land at auction you will not have the energy to run it
supertrouper02: that was as high as i could go

zsteelersman: four players who know what they are doing will tear u up
supertrouper02: i cant beat the cpu
zsteelersman: they make great decisions and you are trying to stay one step ahead but it is tough
zsteelersman: go
supertrouper02: where
zsteelersman: or change what you are producing
zsteelersman: see you can pick up a mule producing smithore
supertrouper02: should I?
zsteelersman: walk him into the store and change him out to be tite

zsteelersman: in the auction and in the land grab
zsteelersman: if two players are trying to buy food at the same time from the store or from an individual the person ranked lower in the game at that time gets to be the first to buy or sell....sometimes it is a disadvantage to be ranked higher
zsteelersman: space
zsteelersman: bar
