You should tell whoever offered that 1K per troop to post in this thread. That way I can properly outbid it.

They will post if they want to. If someone PM's me I'm not going to reveal their name for your amusement.

For my amusement? How about to ensure that you actually got an offer for 1K per troop. I couldn't care any bit less about who the other buyer is. If this isn't possible, then have him send me a PM stating he offered you more. If I believe the guy, I'll offer 1.2K per troop.

I just had a unnamed secret bidder on the telephone who informed me he wanted to bid 10k per troop.  He wants his name secret and it totally isn't me just trying to jack up my own price.

Except that I can look and see when the account was made.

Nobody forces you to do anything. You can just ignore this thread and leave. If I have a bidder he will get his troops for 1k as promised, if I'm lying I wont get anything, simple.

Edit: Bid is 1.3k per troop.

True, but when it stops someone from bidding 20% higher than your highest bid, I think I'd be motivated to release the name of my highest bidder. I'll do an extra 10% if you can give me his name or have him pm me.

When you feel like having people post their bids in this thread, I'll resume bidding, until then, my offer is 1.1K(Just in case the secret unnamed bidder can't manage 1.4K).

Greetings,

I am sorry to inform you that there is a certain flaw in your calculations. Not the math itself, but the concept behind it instead.

You see, in Strategus, you are passively earning Strategus Troops/Gold every hour. While in cRPG itself, you have to make yourself active to get at least an average of x2 or higher multipliers for the duration of that hour.

As others have mentioned before,
Erhm... you can recruit and earn gold in crpg at the same time dude.

Why, you could just have your Strategus character sit in a village having 90%+ of chance to recruit 1 troop while doing something else other than playing cRPG (Which is what I'm doing right now).

So, is there a reason why such passive gain would require an enormous amount of active playing in cRPG to substantiate the cost of Strategus troops?

Please enlighten me.

Yours truly,
A Nerd.

P.S.: I hope OP truly understands the sarcasm behind this post..

Kenji, i think that SkyrayFox understood that like hours ago.
Moreover he wants CRPG gold for it. So, no problems here.

Sold to a private buyer, locking topic before more trolls can get in.  :)
