first subject
i need somebody to hold my UU-Naq-turns while i hit EAG, nobody is on hve forums and my msn is dead

second and more warranted for the faq section:
when giving UU in an ammount that will boost a person over the trade cap, does the broker system allow it to continue so it can be rejected?

is there any point (other than if the reciever of UU already has over the trade cap in AS of course) where i am unable to broker all of my UU during ascension?

Unless you broker them 2x, splitting it, or even 3x, then no, it won't let you. Sorry.

Along the same avenue..
If you set a 100m UU broker to a 100m army person, the next broker you try to set to that person won't go through. The game will consider your broker partner as having 200m army; 100m actual, and 100m 'virtual' in open brokers.


Or so I am told..

I could be wrong, but i think i did it once. 2x 80m to someone before, cause it wouldn't accept 160m. But maybe wrong :/

It wont let you set a broker if they will be over the trade cap. It also counts any pending UU brokers against both accounts until its accepted or rejected or expires.

You need someone very small, or can set the broker on an inactive for your UU and 99T of their naq (so they cant possibly accept) and let it expire :) Just make sure your on a PPT and around to get it after it expires in 2 days.


If your trying to broker over 224M or the current trade cap, then you need to use 2 people. You can always send the turns to a friend to hold and send back so you have 2 brokers to use for the UU with 2 different accounts :)

Hmm.. I heard a story about someone who thought they set a broker for 999T to some -by the looks of him- inactive guy for 230m UU.
Turned out they had set a broker for 999B, and strangely, the guy had that available, and chose that same moment to come online. *click* Accepted. UU gone.


So yeah.. watch out.

Always a chance, but since UU goes for around 500b per M 99 X 2 = 198M just be sure you have 4 comma's before you confirm the trade :)

Interesting considering the raid cap is 357M that would put over that as well...

238 is the trade cap...

238 - 100 = 138 x 2 = 276... so the question remains how...
