July 21, 200323 yr When your refined materials indicator is at 0 as we all know your building speed comes to a crawl. Any suggestions on increasing this number. Assault and scrap works but lately i have been playing egzuki_disdira and he is pretty damn good about his internal espionage and trying to sneak a ship in on his sectors can sometimes be impossible. i have scrapped everything I possibly can to give me back those refined materials and I build a lot of troops defences and ships but the build rate is a crawl. Any suggestion or am I simply stuck and need to wait it out Play For Fun.....Play To Win.....But Most Of All Play With Honor
July 22, 200323 yr Didnt noticed yet that refined material on zero decreases the build speed My s are always at zero "I am growing stronger with the Force"
July 22, 200323 yr I didn't know that either... Is there a bottomline value for the building speed to remain normal?
July 22, 200323 yr Author At the top of your screen there are 3 boxes the one on the left is unrefined materials the middle is refined materials the right is maintenence points. Your mines mine material and the refineries refine it. everything cost a certain amount of refined materials to build along with a certain amount of pointsExample: if it takes you 10 days to build a capital ship and you don't have the refined materials the build time will be longer because your shipyard has to wait for the refined materials to become available so the ship that should have taken 10 days may end up taking 16 18 or maybe 20 days to build. when you scrap something you get those refined material back so if you assault a planet and scrap what it has you get the refined materials back because at the time you scrapped it it belonged to you. It does not matter if the planet these items are on is in uprising or not. As to my original question how to increase those refined materials would keeping 10 or 15 more refineries than mines at all times get them quicker or do the mines take their sweet time in doing their job so if that was the case the extra refineries do squat if they don't have any materials to refine. Looking for ideas. Any and all suggestions welcome Play For Fun.....Play To Win.....But Most Of All Play With Honor
July 22, 200323 yr The problem is that I don't have the booklet that came with the game anymore. What does that say?
July 22, 200323 yr I didn't know that. At the beginning of every game I'd always be at zero RefMaterials. The manual doesn't say anything, just that you should build mines.... Perhaps the Strategy Guide says something but I don't own that... http://www.swrebellion.com/~jahled/Trej/banner.gif
July 28, 200323 yr The only way I have found to increase your refined materials is not to use them. When I get to zero I basically stop building anything unnecessary like the Star Destroyer or Mon Calamari Cruiser that I want. If I need them then I have to wait and stop build other things. You have to find the balance in every game. I wonder if the program puts a priority on Ships, Defenses or what ever was started first? Having more refineries than mines does seem to allow you to build up refined materials faster. I find myself having near 0 for the first 250 days most of the time. It really does slow things down. This problem adds a great realism to the game.
August 20, 200323 yr Is there any calculation how much refined material is produced by one Mine and one refinery per day? The only way to increase that is to buld more of them so I want to know how much more. "I am growing stronger with the Force"
August 20, 200323 yr You also could use RebEd to lower the refined material costs for everything (But where's the fun in that?)

August 21, 200323 yr Ok we are on same way but have u also some serious suggestion? "I am growing stronger with the Force"
August 21, 200323 yr Author Hey Dude21 have you tried playing rebellion thru msn? I am assuming you have tried IP games and the msn gaming zone. Also do you have version1.01 installed?
