Hi from a newbie with some questions

#1
Hi guys

I've played tribes but i was getting bored with it, so i thought i might start zorg empire. The experience has been very good so far, but i have some questions.

a) don't alliances have websites in-game with members, stats, etc?
b) what can you actually lose and win in this game? (planets, score, etc)
c) do alliances have private forums in-game?
d) why is energy so damn expensive? Do you guys have your energy levels always above 0?

a) don't alliances have websites in-game with members, stats, etc?

There are no alliance based web pages within ZE except for the Alliance Page for each alliance. At the bottom of most pages you will find a link to their off-site forums.

b) what can you actually lose and win in this game? (planets, score, etc)

The goal is to achieve points through building your empire or attacking. YOU CAN NOT WIN RUBIES PLAYING ZE.

c) do alliances have private forums in-game?

See answer a.

d) why is energy so damn expensive? Do you guys have your energy levels always above 0?

Energy must always be above zero or production of your mines (metal, crystal, deuterium) is reduced. ZE is based on the aspect that any empire must have energy to function, so costs are naturally higher than most games.

e) how long does it take in average to get 5000 points? Thats what an alliance leader told me i need to join the party and im quite eager to join.

Depends entirely on your level of input to the game. If you're active, it can take just a few weeks- probably less if you pay attention to the guides and suggestions in the Help forum.

Thanks for responding

first of all may i ask what alliance because since ur a new player i suggest an alliance that will teach u but its up to u i suggest Twin Runes since i never got a chance to go into them but they are all experienced players and theyve helped some of my friends reach the top 100 in no time...but 5000 points depends if u want to be fleeter,raider,turteler,etc or a combo of both......im raider / turteler look at my post in help section that says how to be a mean turtle heres url.....but see fleet is the best way to go but u can lose those points fat if u lsoe fleet and turtelerwell no one will attack usince they will destroy their fleet attacking u depending on ur defence

thanks again guys

It's twin runes, yeah, i heard great things about their leader.
ya twin runes good istalris i think is leader and np defences do not consume any energy at all neither do fleet or research... once u make them theyre made u cant destro them they have nothing to do with energyexcept maybe graviton technology...i wan in angels of death too there also good i liked that alliance very much but now they not accepting i think its been like 26 members for a good time now and u need 70k to join anyway
