Steel in Zion

Post by Kitchen »

Did all the ore mines die out or something? Me and henk are both out of steel and have no ore in the factories. Which means no steel no tractors! Why did everyone dissapear from Zion? All your buildings are dying and no one is making money. I guess you all went to the other islands. Mabey its time i went to another one too.

Yup. And nobody's got the money and skill to build a new one. The end is near.

Come to think of it, has anyone seen mit recently, there's been no updates on zion, no sign of him on zion and i don't think he's posted here in a while.

Im still around :] I jus don't currently have a lot of free time available, and the little i have is going into getting the galaxy ready for ya guys to start playing this month.

Its always been the aim with Zion to create an island that will last for a long time without too much intervention on my part.. I checked out all the stats for it at the start of this week and i reckon theres still plenty of life in it yet.

Remember also, there are a number of knights on the island who have the ability to give cash to other players, and even without that, there are plenty of players with enuf cash to be able to build up a new ore & steel chain.
Even relying on just unemployment benefit or a standard-rate job, it wouldnt take much more than a week or two and a couple of visits before a new player could do it.

In the long run, there will still be another stage to Zion to further test the skills of the richest players.

Well, in the last week or two i found a bargain here and there and have started to play the island again, I thought i could revive it a little since it was a bit dead, i obught a weapons shop and then was able to aquire the weapons factory! this was yesterday and even though these arn't making me much money at the moment i'm hopeing that people will start to buy more weapons :) then i'll have a bit of cash.

anyway its something to do while nobody is around for crowing.
