| J-Roc[LoC] Quote | Reply | | Homes in Protection posted on: 6/4/2003 3:22:50 PM whats a good homes % for an oop attker? ive run a few dwarf sims so far. first: using 12% homes i was at 116% employment at hour 60 when troops training began, and that rose to 126% when i came oop, and itll continue to rise for at least the next 12 hours until my conquered land comes in and i start building on it. second: i went 25% homes and at hour 55 when they finished coming in my employment sunk was down to 82% and then rose by a little less than 1% each hour so that it was 87% at hour 60 and like 98% when i came oop, and then it would begin rising over 100% until i got my conquered land in. so my question: which is the best way to go about things? go the first route with low homes (= more smithy/alch)? Or, since it looks like i cant do much about a 30%+ emp swing between when all my buildings from protection come in and when my conquered land comes in just try to center that 30% around 100%? and then, which of hte 2 is best at maximizing what you come oop with. im inclined to think that to leave protection with the best op/dp u can id want to use the number of homes so that when i finish building everything my emp is 100% and then it rises up to ~130/135 until my conquered land gets in. thoughts? |

replied on: 6/4/2003 3:57:33 PM Having a high employment for 12 hours will mean little if you can fix it all with the first influx of land. Take a look at what your DP and OP were when you hit hour 72, and go with what ever strat gave you the highest values. If they come out equally well, go with the 25% homes strat since you'll probably be running homes later anyhow. No sense in rezoning later. I suspect however that the Alchs will help you just a little more than the homes will though. |

replied on: 6/4/2003 8:25:44 PM alcs are much better. 10-15% homes is about all you should need. If draftees arent a problem, you should probably just stay with the original 25. |

replied on: 6/5/2003 10:45:17 PM Mickles is right. I run 10-15% depending on race and how many draftees I need for troops. Enough to get employment near 100% when full, because it will reach that point before my first new land comes in. -Regis |
