Re: returns from raiding
As I said on IRC:
Don't bother with 35K, or 40K
You see, unless you are getting better than the black-market exchange rate, you are wasting turns. An acceptable, no defense raid target has 50-60K UU - with an avreage of 1.1K UU per 15 at. (Remember to stop raiding once you've taken a few K, as the average will drop)
In absolute answer to your question:
I'd say about 600 for 35K, 700-900 for 40K 1K-1.4K 50K

Re: returns from raiding
It is better to search longer and find someone with 50k or over.

Re: returns from raiding
In order to make raiding more worthwhile than buying UU off the market one must get at least 38.3UU per 1 Turn raid. That is, 575UU per 15 turns.
Example:
Black market rates of UU are 600mil/k
Black market rates of turns are 23bil/k
At 38.3UU per 1 turn raid, with 10,000 turns you can raid 383,333UU. This will cost you 230bil naq.
230bil naq will buy you 383,333UU on the black market (230,000,000,000/60,000,000,000 * 100,000).
However, it's very easy to get a better rate than this at raiding, so I wouldn't advise raiding at as low a rate as 575 per 15 turns. Personally, I raid at 850 per 15 turns.
