We would like to welcome Abir Hasnat aka Zeus to the NZ Portal Staff as our latest writer/interviewer! We also have the following articles and interviews for your enjoyment:
Defending yourself at high networth by Equinox
In Nukezone, you can play many different ways – Networth play is one of the more popular ways to play. When you play for Networth (NW) you need 3 things; a bank cycle, a decent amount of land, and a bonus is nice but not necessarily requisite. Of those things, you need to thieve for your bank, you need to war for your bonus, and you need to raid for your land... read on!
NukeZone Thoughts and Discussion: Episode 1 by Zeus
I had the distinct pleasure to interview some of wise and opinionated members of the NukeZone Community, and the following is what I came away with. I asked the questions, and they gave the responses. The topics of the interviews were the Grenade Soldier, Hover Tank, Anti-Missile System, and Satellite Technology... decide for yourself!
Round 27 Points Interview by Zeus
I had the pleasure to interview the clan leaders of the top 4 clans for this round. I asked these questions and they gave the answers (interviews were conducted before the end of Round 27)... find out what they had to say!
Round 27 Combo Interview by Zeus
What was your clan's goal and has it been met so far?
[EckoJ]: Our main goal was to win combo and have fun, and that part worked out fine. We thought of trying to win United Boundaries too, if we secured the combo victory early, which we did. But the United Boundaries run was a total failure; it was much harder, so we gave that up... read the full interview! |

Race To The Finish by Death
This interview is covering the extremely close race for Networth at the end of Round 26. Everyone involved with the race did an excellent job, which made for an exciting finish to the round. Here are the personal accounts of players from Sooner Nation, The B Team, We Play 4 Real and SeX is Not a Crime...read what happened!
Max Researching Guide (update) by Equinox
This is an update of an article Davidtjuh wrote last year in June. In Round 27, Headquarters (HQs) were removed – so a lot of the information in that article became obsolete...see the latest update!
Academica Vitae NTC by Equinox
This round, two experienced players have started a Noob Training Clan – Patriot had the desire to start the NTC last round, and contacted Prutser to see if he was interested in helping him run it. As luck would have it he was interested, and they now run Academica Vitae NTC (#112233)...read more!
Everything Changes by Hotdog
Round changes; they happen every round, it’s a dead cert. The changes at the start of this round were literally strategy changing – some of the biggest ‘improvements’ to the game in over a year, at least. After dredging through forum replies, NZP comments and IRC logs, I thought looking at the reasoning behind the changes and players reactions to the changes would make for an interesting read...decide for yourself! |
The Portal Staff have been working hard over the past few days and we are pleased to bring you some of the highlights from their recent submissions:
Medal of Development R27 by Equinox
Recently, Medal of Development (MoDev) was won by nOnick (#437359), Pedro Pascoal. His boost began when he started attacking for land, he tells me that he “just did 5 attacks without thinking, I think I got around 15k”. With that nice jumpstart on land gained, he was feeling pretty confident on going for MoDev...read on!
How Do Missiles Work? by Equinox
Missiles are a large part of earning points in NukeZone, and eliminating portions of your enemies’ armies. For those that are new to the game, Nuclear Missiles hit all units and buildings, while Chemical missiles only hit sea, air and vehicle units and Biochemical missiles only affect infantry. This article will inform you how many units you can kill with a nuke, chem, or bio – and some little tricks you can use to create your own spreadsheet...find out more!
PBM - Route to Gold by Murderer
Project Batmoth is not a new clan, an unfamiliar clan, an inexperienced clan; they have always been known and may not have been ‘feared’ but were never taken lightly. In r26, Project Batmoth claimed gold points (as well as other achievements) against a number of great clans; they proved that strategy is equally as important as activity...read more!
Experiences of a Veteran - An Interview with Napo by AgA
It took me over a week, but I finally was able to select a good person to have a sit down with for my first interview for the NZ Portal. I asked dozens of people who they would interview if they had to, and I had multiple people say RAH, Napo, and Gondor. So I decided to start off with Napo, basically getting all around information relating to the game. I hope you enjoy the next piece, inside the head of Napo...read the full interview!
We hope you enjoy them and don't forget to check the Portal again soon for more interesting reading from the Portal Staff! |
