yinner Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 I was wondering, i'm about to infra jump to a point that would finally give me enough land to start buying navy. I've been very confused as to what determines how many ships can be purchased. I've read the info on it and i'm still unsure. Is it based on the number of your improvements, dockyard/shipyard. or is it based on the amount of infra you have to support "ship infra." this has just been a really annoying problem for me and i was wondering if someone had a good answer for the me the poor n00b. thnx guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schmutte693 Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 (edited) If I recall correctly, the way it works is like this: whatever the infra requirement for a particular ship is, once you have that amount you can buy that ship (provided you have the proper improvements). Once you max out on that improvement, you can purchase up to 5 of them. BUT, if the ifnra requirement was... let's say 1000, and you had 5000 infra, then you could purchase a total of 10 of that type of ship. 5 from the improvements and 5 more from the extra infra. I hope that makes sense... and that I am not just completely remembering this wrong. Edited December 30, 2008 by schmutte693 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yinner Posted December 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 i guess that makes sense. of course this brings up the problem of is it better to buy more smaller weakre ships or fewer more powerful ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schmutte693 Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 Or all of them, if you can afford it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yinner Posted December 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 well thats obviously not possible because there is a limited number you can buy. or you can keep buying LOTS and LOTS of infra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverHawk Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 Well, there isn't a hard cap to the ships beyond what your Infra and Tech allows. But you can't go wrong with minimum of Maxed out Nuke Proof Ships. I recommend getting both Naval academies if you are really interested in having a worth while Navy.

schmutte693 Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 Yes, but if you wanted you could purchase 5 of each type of ship. Your total is not the value that has a cap on it; it is the number of all of the individual ships which is capped. Yes, this does put a cap on the total, but it is not as if I can buy 10 more Aircraft Carriers just because I do not purchase any Battleships.

zzzptm Posted December 31, 2008 Report Share Posted December 31, 2008 Navies are very expensive. That's all I'm going to say about this. The rest is TOP SEEKRIT! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steelrat Posted December 31, 2008 Report Share Posted December 31, 2008 Navy below 7K Infra and not all Navy Improvements = waste of Cash in peace times. Navy needs all Navy Improvements, without the Imps you shouldn´t have any Navy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyperion321 Posted December 31, 2008 Report Share Posted December 31, 2008 (edited) The infra requirement is the minimum mount you need to buy 1 of any ship. You need to get that infra requirement again (on top of the other requirement) in order to get another one of those ships. The infra requirement for a corvette is 2k infra. So in order to get 2 corvettes (not including improvements), you would need to have 4k infra. That's 2k infra per corvette, since the required infra per ship is 2k. Each improvement on top of the number of times you fulfilled the infra requirement lets you purchase one additional vessel of that type. So 4k infra with 5 (maximum) improvements could get you 7 corvettes. 2 for the infra, 5 for the improvement. pretty much the same thing schmutte said, but I hope that helps.
