just trying to figure out exactly how that pop bonus helps.. I have a few ent heavy which worked well due to pop cap.. started buying tech and ent seems to definitely trump res at this point in time

I've tried a theo casher in FFA and I was running rep cashers at the same time, and once you get fatter the Rep. PCI bonus makes it just too much better..

ZDH: It's new. The development team added a population bonus for Theo that makes it a decent strat.

On the bigger clan based servers where there's more opportunity to get big fat countries, rep-casher will smoke it every time, but on the solo servers, like express (as ford brought up), it's at least competitive against rep-casher.

Does require more food though, since you've got 50% more population.

I just ran a theo casher in express and did decent with it but the lack of tech I think would make a big difference in a long server.

and technically *if* I switched to rep still making out with a +6% pop bonus and only 6% deduction to PCI... plus the explore rate bonus will be big help towards the end I suppose =/

If you're running any rep cashers as well, I'd be curious to see how those two compare to each other by set's end.

I won alliance with a theo casher.

It is a very strong strat at the beginning because of the +50% population bonus, make sure you use that to grab like mad - else, you're better off with a rep casher.

That makes sense. Use it to get out in front of everyone and grab to stay ahead.

I think it'd be rough to keep yourself with enough military and still keep expenses down, but if you won alliance with one, apparently you pulled it off.

on express i have played fasc/oiler, great start to get out front. But i always end up losing ground. Also part of the problem, you have to play turns like every 8 hours, or you get too far behind, and greater chance to be hit.

theo casher is actually way stronger in games like express/tourney where there are less turns, or even primary... I doubt it will be that useful in FFA due to the grabbing environment here.
