eh?

This slower game requires strategic and diplomatic skills as well. It has been discontinued.

The Kraken, which is found primarily in Scandinavian myth, was a huge sea creature. It was said to lie at the bottom of the sea for a long time and then it would rest at the surface....Like the Midgard serpent in the Norse myths, the Kraken was supposed to rise to the surface at the end of the world.

I like COG, but when I'm running Hawks..I tend to get irritated with the lack of turns.

Yeah, I almost never wait for a full run. I normally go about 18 - 24 hours between runs, which gives me 216 - 288 turns. Sometimes I run with fewer, but only occasionally. It's hard to wait 30 hours or so to get a full run. The only time I wait for full turns is when I'm leaving protection, or going on a kill run, which I don't do anymore.

This is how you master CoG turns.

Say it's Sunday and you have full turns. (afternoon) Use them. Then use turns on Tuesday (afternoon). Then use turns on Wednesday (night). Use turns Friday (afternoon). Use turns Saturday (night). Then wait 'till Monday and start the process ove again.
It ain't about how hard ya hit. It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done!

im not trying to resurrect a long quiet post, but i figured it would be better than starting another one :P it is my opinion now, seeing how this is still my first time on the CoG and the low turn rate, that CoG is harder than BFR.
why?
because you have to plan each and every one of those buggary turns.
unlike BFR where you got 500 to burn through.

just a thought.

I wasnt even thinking of him... :rolleyes:

thanks man.

oh, and I'd be more than happy to join someones clan. I played a couple sets here, finished 4th once with like 800 attacks.

CoG will be the only thing I'll be playing though, not enough time for the faster game.
