Strategy Aces High III

FAQs Aces High III
SOS Thread​

It's been a while since I started a Strategy thread so I thought I would have a bash at the numbers. It seems relatively easy but we all know my maths can be a little off at times.

I estimate that we need 282 steps to complete all races.

To complete with just basic Biofuel which moves us one step, we would need 304:

304 x 68 Camelines = 20,672
304 x 4 Fuel Cans = 1,216
304 x 50 Sunflowers = 15,200

To complete with Biofuel XL, which will move us three steps, we will need 101 plus one basic Biofuel:

101* x 180 Camelines = 18,180 (+6 = 18,248
101* x 11 Fuel Cans = 1,111 (+4) = 1,115
101* x 75 Sunflowers = 7,575 (+75) = 7,625

You can also mill Deluxe Biofuels which will only move you one step but will double the rewards on that step.

I see this as a do-able event with just three harvests per day using Biofuel XLs so I will probably go for the Biofuel XL and maybe use the odd Deluxe Biofuels for those steps with good prizes.
Good luck everybody!

EDIT: TO CORRECT FIGURES

 

Thanks illy for doing the numbers. I'll give it a go

 

Thanks illy, you saved my brain from going and doing the math today! I will be flying some planes for sure!
Good luck everyone and lets have some fun!

 

Illy, THANK YOU for starting this thread. I generally like this event and have been hoarding sunflowers for it for some time now. That said, I am not sure I am going to have the time to devote to farming to do this event in its entirety. But, still, the rewards are nice, so farmers, even if you can't complete the event, get as far as you can and reap what rewards you can!

I know I've mentioned that my farming has been curtailed in the recent past. My mother was ill for several months. She passed away last Saturday. I am sorta farming - as in I'm logging in at least once a day on the two main farms (this one and sewinglady's). I keep forgetting to send gifts, so I apologize for that, neighbors. The list of things I have to take care of is longer than my arm and just keeps growing. My fellow farmers, if you can, hug your mommas and tell them how much they mean to you. I hate that the COVID robbed me of the ability to do that until almost the end, but the hospital did let me see her the last week she was alive and I am so grateful for that.

 

I'm so sorry dumbunny for your loss. Sending you virtual hugs.

 

So sorry, dumbunny, I do wish I had hugged my Mum a little more. Thinking of you.

Edit: I have amended the numbers in the first post as the mill requirements have changed - please double check that I got my sums right ... I have been known to mess up!

 

I'm so sorry for your loss dumbunny . My heart goes out to you and your family.

 

dumbunny, I am also so sorry for your loss, but happy you did get to go show your mom how much you cared and to be there! My thoughts for you and your family!
Thanks illy for all your hard work!

 

Prayers for you and your family dumbunny; so sorry for your loss.

Thank you all for the kind words of support.

 

Hello dumbunny, sorry for your loss.

 

dumbunny, I wish to add my condolences to everyone elses. My mom's been gone a very long time, but I still miss her every day. I'm sure your mom was comforted by your being able to be with her, and I know you will always cherish that time as well. Please remember to take care of yourself, rest even tho you may not feel like it, and allow yourself to be comforted by those who care about you. As for the list of things to do, that I understand completely. My father in law passed just before last Thanksgiving, and we're still doing paperwork . You'll get thru it, just take it one breath, one step at a time.♥

I'll give this event a try. We've been putting in 12-14 hour days at the farm the last 2 weeks, so didn't manage to finish any recent events, but hopefully things will not be so hectic now. Have fun those who are participating.

 

Thank you illy for starting the Thread and supplying the Events Crop/Drop Number requirements.
