You can call this the black if you all want to but lets face it, there are those players who are leaving and want to take a percentage of their investment with them. I for one am a late addition and hope to bring new life to Neveron, in some form or way........but first if you want to sell an empire or something of that nature through back channels.....well pm me or email to greg_kris@hotmail.com I will answer you as soon as I can. Posting here is also a viable option and albiet being public will allow others to view it and know the statistics of a particular ongoing sale....and yes if it is possible for me to buy everything up in Neveron........I will even if it means empire by empire for real cash if that is what it takes.

lol, welcome to Nev Machento. Watch the market space, there are plenty of good deals going on for LW empires and very large empires. Make sure you get your contacts on allies and such if u do purchase an empire, before going on 1 man army crusade What happen to NevCom the day after it was purchased wasn't something i'd wish on anyone.

Nevcom started it, Shade knew he was buying an empire in Fwar and what would happen to it afterwards. What he did was just plain dumb

Welcome to the game Machento. Good luck purchasing empires.
1. Don't purchase an empire that is in the middle of war. - Just because you purchase an empire doesnt mean that the newly acquired empire is suddently off of the destruction market.
2. Don't purchase an empire that is in the middle of a faction war that was the aggressor and/or loser of a fwar. Especially if that empire is an known enemy of many many larger empires that are in the middle of a very very important war. - Most of us may be dumb, but we sure are not stupid. Purchasing an empire the day after it lost a fwar, while the real enemies, are parked outside of your city walls...isn't too bright. Especially when the new buying is someone who has been basically running the show for the recently purchased empire already. So beware of the AusNinja and that propaganda machine of shallow tears.
3. If you do purchase and empire that has had a LOT of enemies. Go straight to that empires enemies and say "hey, I am looking to purchase that empire, what can we do to fix whatever wrongs between the two." - Most times, even HoC and the Clans had a respect for those empires and respect for a new buyer. Yes you may have to give up a little, but giving up a little is better than losing a lot.
4. Make sure you are already established in a good faction and/or alliance before purchasing a land war empire or any empire. - If you try to go about it alone, you will become food pretty quickly. There are too many empires out there just eager to eat your mechs and burn your cities. Since you already did the foolish thing by making HoC and UDC your sworn enemies, I may suggest you either going to FWLM, IZW, or SoL. This way you are around mostly good chaps and will get a chance to lose your new empires to HoC and freinds eventually. Or, you can go to WoB and keep your empire out of harms way mostly and be subjected to Chet and his Chetness.
5. Learn the game first. - Learn the art of war, the art of politics, and the art of inf bombs before you spend money on larger empires. Don't let your eyes get bigger than your brains. Then I and many others would have to read your tears of sorrow as you lost your mech force because of something you probably wish you hadn't have done if you had known or were better at.
6. Have fun. - Enjoy the game, enjoy the people and enjoy the lovely forced faction wars.

I saw the war logs and the public mail today...I think he has a better chance of getting factioned as a level 1 rather than the level 3 he was. Guess it will take him a little more time to build up his Malachi Destruction Force.

lol, well I agree, the posts above are sound advice. Military philosophies of Hoc/Udc of 'All or Nothing' are often ridiculed, however they are respected for their effectiveness. Do your homework, know what you're buying into, and certainly work out the transitional details beforehand. Best of luck building up your Malachi Destruction Force. I look forward to seeing it climb up and down and up the ranks... and probably one last advice. play for fun

oh yes truly, I a playing for the fun of it. If anything I call it a jest that so many quickly turned to despising, hating, or even feeling threatended by the WCF. But it is a level 4 now , a mere 24 hours after its destruction. Ive tested the waters, and of course I will heed the advice of buying empires, only those I will take are those I can negotiate certain lomited protections from along with leaving any faction or alliance they are part of. But hey keep me posted on ur views, but as the WCF dying all out only time can tell and how fast I can spend my american dollar. So far its bought 2 batlions worth of troops with more on the way! plus all the buildings nearly equal to what I had before. Im roleplaying some parts of this but I have 2 cousins, 1 that plays newsie on the public mail, and the other that will go around and see what others think about the WCF. and well my friends and brother also new to the game, they have their uses also. But this thread isnt for roleplay,.........im sincer about buying and selling anything here that ppl want to trade in back channels..........cash, dp. nevcash.....its all the same to me.
