Almighty Farms: Triple Crown Bound

[thealmighty]

THIS IS NOT BASEBALL There. Now that that triple crown reference has been laid to rest, we can move forward.

What this is, really, is a horse racing/breeding/whatever dynasty. We will be attempting to take a fledgling horse stable and turn it in to the #1 stable in the world, or the USA, depending.

To do this, we will be using Final Stretch: Horse Racing Sim, otherwise known as The Sport of Kings or Horse Racing Manager, depending on where in the world you are. In the sim, you start off as an unknown stable with limited funds available (a problem, as you will see below) and try to raise your status to the top by purchasing, breeding and racing the horses you have. That is the bare bones outlook of what will happen. We shall see.

[thealmighty]

Problems and disclaimers: I was getting antsy for a new dynasty and didn't feel like doing football, so I went to the computer store to find something I hadn't seen (was actually looking for a tennis sim, but couldn't find one.) before in here. The horse sim was in the bargain bin and I couldn't find anything else that hit me as a fun idea, so I got it.

Then the problems started. As I toyed with the game to get a feel for it, I found that there are little pain-in-the-ass bugs in it, like in-game notes and notifications dissapearing when they should be visable, so you can't actually see what it is you are being told. Also, you can actually run your horses races YOURSELF, like an arcade game, but the thing doesn't work properly (for example, if your horse starts on an outside position, it will never go to the rail, but stays way outside.).

Anyway, I went to the website and found no help, so I went to the forums. Well, this MUST be the worst forum ever. I know the game's been out a while, but even the old posts offer little or no help. If you post a problem, you get other players posting they have the same trouble, but noone ever gives aid or an answer. IT SUCKS.

Well, I saw there was a patch for the game, but then I read the US version did not need the patch, and it would actually corrupt the game and force a reinstall if used, so that SUCKS, too.

So I read what I could on the forums and, lo and behold, everyone (almost) was saying how you can't win, really, because you won't have the funds to do so. Seems they start you off with pocket change and it is near impossible to advance fairly.

To make money at the start, you must either,
buy already raceable horses or
lease space in your stable to other owners' horses.
The problems there are,
you can only afford crap horses to start and you have no infrastructure to house/train them anyway yet
you can't lease space until you have built things that cost, sometimes, lots of money and take time to build.
So, what to do...

Cheat was the order of the day in the forums. Seems you have to go the first week and bet all your cash on a race and win in order to have the money to start your career.

Soooo, that is the plan, we will cheat to get start-up money and see what happens from there, realizing that this is a somewhat corrupted dynasty from the start and not pretending otherwise.

You gotta do what you gotta do, even at $9.99.

[thealmighty]

The first order of business is to chose the country to base your stable in. As this was/is an internationally released game, there are 10 choices.

trot/gallop are number of races available for type of horse
winnings is the relative amount of the purses available
competition is the number of other horses in the country
set-up is the cost of getting started
weather is the relative amount of time your training facilities will be unavailable
I might have chosen Italy, since I was born there, but decided to start out with the U.S.A. because I want to concentrate on gallop type races and the US is the best for that.

Now to pick a location in the states.

[thealmighty]

If someone could tell me if the chart is readable or not, I would appreciate it. It looks great in the Sideline Green Style I use, but I don't know about the style most people use.

[klayman]

It's readable in S' yellow. I have this game as well, I'll be following along.

[thealmighty]

Each country has 10 locations to chose from with inherent advantages and/or disadvantages in terms of costs, desirability and buildings already available. The choices in the USA are Miami, Dallas, Memphis, Phoenix, Denver, Cincinnati, Las Vegas, Nashville, Austin and Salt Lake City.

Austin is the cheapest in terms of initial purchase cost and I suppose I should think about Nashville or Memphis, which is as close to the bluegrass of Kentucky as one could get, but I chose Dallas as my base since I live there, anyway, and it is my dynasty.

Also, Dallas is the 3rd cheapest for beginning costs and has some infrastructure in place already, though not much.

The start-up cost for Dallas is $82,200. It seems that it is "an enjoyable location. The forest nearby increases fame but raises infrastructure costs."

Time to check out the spread.

[thealmighty]

Thanks, klayman.

I have this game, but never got into it... I'll be reading along to see if there's anything that might compel me to give it another shot...

Here is an organizational chart to show the various structures that can be built. The leftmost structure must be built before the ones to right, with the colored groups going together. For example, the Grooming room cannot be built until you have horsemanship, which you can't get until you have some boxes.

[thealmighty]

We begin our dynasty on March 6, 2003. We need not look at anything about our horse stock as we don't, obviously, have any.

We can get horses for our stable through purchasing via auction or advertisemsnt, or buying a horse through a claims race. We plan on waiting for a yearling auction as that is where the best horses can usually be had.

Until then, we can only build up our stable infrastructure.

[thealmighty]

At this point, as you have seen in the organizational chart above, there are a bunch of structures to purchase or build. You can build them yourself or buy them from an ad in the classified section.

There are 3 levels that most buildings or improvements can be - 1,2 or 3, oddly enough. The higher the level, the more costly, but the greater the stated advantage is for that particular building. If you construct an improvement, you can specify the level to be built, with the accompanying cost and increased time to build for the higher level. You cannot use the structure until it is completed, of course.

However, if you buy a structure from an add in the news, you have it available the next week, but must take and pay for the level offered.

At this time, Almighty Farms has the following infrastructure already in place:
2 Boxes, level 1
Hanger, level 3
Riding Alleys, level 2
-Boxes allow you to have horses at your stable, either your own or boarding from another stable.
-Hangers reduce the cost of food for your horses
-Riding Alleys increase your fame rating and increase the efficiency of fitness training for your horses

Although we have 2 boxes available already, we cannot actually board other horses to have some income since other improvements are needed before anyone would bother to board here.

We need some more stuff before the auction and to board horses for income.

[thealmighty]

I forgot before, but the Almighty Farms silks are green (my favorite color) and white with a star pattern incorporated here and there.

Our first weekly budget looks like this:

The $190 expense for outsourcing means that while we have a few buildings, we have no staff to care for and upkeep this infrastructure so we will need to get a staff manager and maintenance worker soon.

We will be in the red for a long time to come, so you can see how tough this game would be trying to stay afloat without bankrupting yourself quickly.

[thealmighty]

03-06-03 (mm-dd-yy)

---> We take a trip to the track to bet the $400,000 will still have from the $500,000 we started with. We look first at the length of the race and notice it is 2200 meters, a long one. We look over the endurance of the horses in the race and, lo and behold, we have a miracle, it seems, in our first try. A horse named Gato is rated 87 for endurance, which is 8 points higher than any other entrant. His other stats are good, so we bet the bundle on Gato to win in the 1st race.

---> Gato WINS and we take home several million as, for whatever reason, he went off at 10:1+ odds. We can now begin to build Almighty Farms into the powerhouse we hope to have.

[thealmighty]

3-13-03 (mm-dd-yy)

---> With a fame score of 3, Almighty Farms is dead LAST of the 151 stables ranked. The reason we aren't at zero, I assume, is due to the Riding Alley we started with, which raises fame as a bonus to the increase in efficiency of fitness training for your horses.

---> Receive notice of an auction for Level 1 horses and we declare (accept the invitation) we will attend. We think this will be a yearling sale, which is what we plan to start with.

---> As we will be, hopefully, purchasing some stock at the auction, we improve the 2 boxes (let you host horses, yours or others) we have to level 3 to give them more comfortable homes.

---> In order to get a jump on things, we need to start toward the Club House (lets you host other stables' horses for profit) improvement. To qualify, you must have horsemanship (raises fame also). We also need to build more boxes so we can stable more horses as needed.

No need to skimp at this point, so we will go ahead and purchase 2 boxes of category 3 and also category 3 horsemanship.

[thealmighty]

It is time to head to the yearling auction and check out the stock. Because we only have 2 boxes on the farm, we can purchase, at most, 2 horses at this sale. Of course, at this point we don't really know how high is good and how high is great in terms of statistics for the horses, but we know the scale is 1-99 with 99 the highest, so we will just look for the highest scores we can find and hope for the best.

[thealmighty]

The auction is, in fact, for 1 year olds, which is different than yearlings. Yearlings are, I now assume, less than 1 year old while these horses are 1 year old.

There are 11 gallop racer horses for auction, which is what we are after. We plan to race all gallop style stock, except when we begin breeding and whatever 'comes out' is what you get.

This is the information we have to go on to purchase our 2 horses:

Endurance- ability to sustain in longer races

Speed- maximum possible speed

Acceleration- acceleration speed

Resistance- capacity to sustain injuries

Technique- ability to overtake horses in a race

Discipline- capacity to progress through training

Adaptability- to the behavior of the jockey

We want a male and a female. All these horses are 'List' category, which is the lowest possible, since they have no racing experience.

Which two would you take, given that the resistance factor will decrease, meaning easier to injure, with training for speed, endurance or acceleration? My choices have been made so we will see if you agree.

[klayman]

I'd go with Beaute Bruyere and Falcon. Bruyere cause she has the best potential to improve, and Falcon would seem like a good horse to win short to medium length races since he should quickly lead the pack out of the gates. But I know nothing about horse racing, so I'm interested to see who you picked and why.

[kingfc22]

I would also go with Beaute Bruyere, but would pick Ursulo instead. Ursulo has better speed and is more resistant to injury so he could be run in more races to win more money.

[Wolfpack]

I agree with Beaute Bruyere, but would take Uno in Blue even though his Resistance is low, because he already has solid stats everywhere else and you could probably get him competitive sooner and thus build sooner on any success he gives. He may not be for the long haul, but he'd give you a good start.

[thealmighty]

Male:

I chose Ursulo. Why? One major factor was, in fact, resistance. All the best males had somewhat low resistance factors. Low scores mean easier to injure, so you want a high number. Ursulo, while low, was higher than the others. Also, while Uno has a high discipline, the low resistance and low speed/accelaration/endurance (comparitively) mean that, while easier to train, he will be injury prone since the low resistance will decline even more with the need for lots of these areas to be trained. Falcon could have been about the same as Ursulo, but I chose speed over acceleration.

Time will tell but, of course, I have nothing to really base this on in terms of race experience.

Female:

I chose Favorite because her numbers were slightly better than Beaute Bruyere and the high resistance meant lots of speed, etc..., training possible and, to tell you the truth, I was struck by the name. I mean, don't YOU want the 'Favorite' to run for you in each race.

Not very scientific, but such is the life of a racehorse owner. At least it is for now. ;)

[condors]

i will be reading, i tried quite a few times to get a stable going without cheating and never had any success. Good Luck

[thealmighty]

Thanks for reading and contributing, y'all.

3-20-03 (mm-dd-yy)

Well, now comes the boring part. We have a couple of horses, but you cannot train nor race them until they are 2 year olds. I believe the universal horsey birthday is January 1, so until then it is simply a matter of waiting for the next auction (which I have no idea when) and upgrading facilities and # of boxes to stable more stock. Also need to start hiring some help around here.

---> Our improvement of the 2 boxes we had to category 3 is complete.

---> We are still several weeks away from the completion of the horsemanship upgrade that opens up club house, which will let us stable other owners stock for profit.

---> With the purchase of 2 horses, our fame score has risen all the way to 14, which ranks us 134th out of 151.

[daedalus]

Cool. I'll be following. :)

[Franklinnoble]

Good stuff so far... I'll be reading. Maybe I'll dust off my copy of the game and see if I can have any luck.

[Raven Hawk]

Well, I'll definitly be follwowing this one. Good idea to pick a Grey. ;)

[QuikSand]

You've already gotten a lot farther than I did with this game. Good luck.

[thealmighty]

It's great to get some interest and feedback as any dynasty writer will point out. Thanks for following and for letting me know you are here. :D

[kingfc22]

I just like the fact that I at least picked the same male horse as you.

[Franklinnoble]

It's great to get some interest and feedback as any dynasty writer will point out. Thanks for following and for letting me know you are here. :D

I know exactly what you mean. It's nice to know you're not writing into a total void. :D

[condors]

i never tried leasing my stables maybe i should get as many as allowed and lease all of them but 1 and see if i can get a claimer horse to train

[thealmighty]

3-27-03 (mm-dd-yy)

---> Still 5 weeks left in the horsemanship upgrade.

---> We see an advertisement to purchase staff buildings at category 3, which increase the efficiency of the staff (that we have none of at the moment). Building this ourselves would take weeks and cost $36,100, Buying from an ad takes only one week, and this costs less, $34,271 so we go ahead and make the deal.

---> Fame is up to 15 now, which puts Almighty Farms tied for #130 out of 151.

[thealmighty]

Here is a look at the information we get on the horses residing in our stalls. We have only the 2 boxes so our 2 are the only stock in residence.

When we get a chance, we'll get some other horse(s) to make some comparisons and see how our horses stack up against some others.

Looking at the large differential in the speed category, we would have thought there would be more than 0' 01" differential in the fastest times for 1 Km. Oh well, again we see how much we do not know and have to learn if we are going to be any kind of player in this endeavor.

4-03-03 (mm-dd-yy)

---> The staff buildings we purchased from the ad are now available for use if we ever get any staff. :)

---> Fame bumped to 16, though we have no idea why unless the new building raised it due to monetary value, as opposed to actual increases from prestige. That keeps us at #130 of 151 but now we are alone in that position.

---> Our buildings now are valued at $133,000.

---> Our horses are valued at $2,279,110. We wonder if the value will increase at all with the passing months before they age a year in january, or if the value is stagnant until something like racing or training begins.

This is what our budget looked like for the week:

If you read the beginning about the difficulty in doing well in this game due to financial concerns, you can already see what we meant. We are spending a bit over $1000 a week at this time with little infrastructure and no staff at all and no income in sight for many months. If we bought a good horse it would cost thousands. If we bought a nag it would be cheap but wouldn't be able to garner enough prize money to pay for itself. A conundrum, to be sure.

[thealmighty]

A bit of an explanation is in order for anyone wondering how we can have a budget with but $15 for maintenance and $30 outsourcing with $133,000 in infrastructure and no staff.

Another segment of the game is called PLANNING. Planning is the alocation of your personal time to:
aid in horse diet
aid in horse training
aid in morale of staff
aid in lowering maintenance costs
You have so many time alocation 'dots' to use as you see fit in the 4 categories, with up to three units usable per category. At this time we have 9 units available. This number will decrease over time as we build more infrastructure and get more stock (horses).

Because we are using 3 units on maintenance, our costs are greatly reduced as seen in the paltry amount needed per week in the budget for same. The downside of this, if we cared at this point, is that the usage of alocation units for cost reduction directly impacts the fame gained from the buildings you are cutting costs on. The more expensive the building you look after to cut costs, the more fame points you lose in so doing.

Eventually we will lose many of the units we now have and will need to use the ones left for the more important tasks like training horses. Units used for this purpose "significantly improve the efficiency" of training. Likewise, units used to oversee diet will "improve health by reducing the risk of disease," thereby increasing training efficiency.

[thealmighty]

As a side/personal note, it is a shame this game was not supported very well, at least not in the US. You may be seeing, as I am, that there is a great deal of potential depth and tactical situations involved here. However, were I not doing this in dynasty form, I would most probably have quit playing by now because I am constantly having to reload the game to see the things that some bugs sometimes refuse to allow me to see after some minutes of gameplay.

A shame.

4-10-03 (mm-dd-yy)

---> The 2 boxes we started weeks ago are completed, bringing to 4 our total available.

---> We see an offer in an ad for 2 more boxes priced at $53,600. Though building ourselves takes much longer than buying via advertisement, we have no need of more room to stable any stock right now so we decide to build our own, taking the extra time but saving some money. Ours will cost $51,500.

---> 3 weeks until we have use of the horsemanship upgrade.

[thealmighty]

4-17-03 (mm-dd-yy)

---> Nothing going on, really.

---> Fame has skyrocketed to 17, placing Almighty Farms at #128 of 151.

[thealmighty]

In the interest of neither driving away anyone actually reading this dynasty nor boring you to death, we will sorta skip weeks that are not worth talking about since our horsies won't be able to actually do anything for a while.

[thealmighty]

5-01-03 (mm-dd-yy)

---> Finallly, our horsemanship upgrade has been completed. This raises fame a teeny bit and opens many other improvements for building.

---> The major improvement opened up through the horsemanship upgrade is the club house. This increases fame some more but, more importantly, allows for leasing of stable space to other farms' stock for profit.

We can build at level 2, maximum, at this time. We do so at a cost of $15,200 and a building time of 8 long-ass weeks.

---> We see an advertisement to purchase a grooming room, level 2 for $15,702. Building this ourselves would cost $17,100, so we decide to purchase the improvement. The grooming room increases fame a tad and lowers the cost of feeding your horses.

---> Fame has increased to 18, placing Almighty Farms at #127 of 151.

[kingfc22]

I'm still reading.

[daedalus]

Me, too. :)

[thealmighty]

:D Thanks. :D

[condors]

i am reading and will be starting up a game as a result

[MrBug708]

Same

[thealmighty]

5-08-03 (mm-dd-yy)

---> The one week delay is over and our level 2 grooming room is ready to go. This improvement has cut our horse food bill in half, from $160 to $80.

---> The 2 boxes we were building are complete, bringing to 6 the number of available stalls at Almighty Farms.

---> The need for more boxes will hopefully grow as our club house improvement under construction will allow us to stable outside stock.

Therefore, we have commissioned the building of 2 more boxes at a cost of $51,300.

---> With the additional infrastructure we now have, our planning allocation 'dots' are down to 8 from 9. We still have no employees as the use of the 'dots' keeps maintenance costs about what hiring help would cost, but soon we will need to become employers of maintenance staff and, at the start of the new year, horse trainers and the like.

---> Fame is up to 19, putting Almighty Farms tied in the rankings at #124 of 151.

[Franklinnoble]

I started a game and cheated my way up to $15 million. Stupid thing crashes on me a ton, though. And no auto-save.

[thealmighty]

Damn, Franklin, that's way more than I have. You could buy every good horse in the auction.

My game has never actually 'crashed' out on me. It just refuses to show the notices you are supposed to get weekly (or whenever) so I never know what is going on (or half the time, anyway)...among other pain-in-the-ass minor bugs.

[Franklinnoble]

I guess I could, but the game is so far from intuitive, I'd have no idea what to do with any of the horses after buying them.

I'm clueless about hiring staff, and I'm just building every improvement in sight to see what it does for me. This game is really frustrating.

[thealmighty]

...the game is so far from intuitive...

That is the understatement of this, or any, racing season.

[thealmighty]

6-05-03 (mm-dd-yy)

---> 2 weeks until our club house is ready.

---> The 2 boxes we started a month ago are completed, giving Almighty Farms a total of 8.

---> In anticipation of the supposed ability to house other stock to make some money (finally) from the club house, we begin building 2 more boxes at a cost of $51,300.

---> Fame has skyrocketed to 20 ;) , putting us at #123.

Still 6 months to go until we can begin training/racing our horses. :mad:

[thealmighty]

6-26-03 (mm-dd-yy)

---> The club house is complete at level 2. To get to level 3, we need a grooming room (that we have), a straight line and a reining circle (I assume this is a circle of tether as a reining circle is not anywhere in the game I can find).

---> We go ahead with building the circle of tether (reining circle) at level 3 for $19,950. It will take 3 weeks to complete. A circle of tether moderately increases fame and helps with the taming of horses to aid in training.

---> We upgrade our grooming room to level 3 for $4,275 and only a 1 week delay before use.

---> We build a level 3 straight line at a cost of $114,000. It will take 5 weeks to complete. The straight line can be built with grass, sand or dirt. However, nothing anywhere gives you any idea of the benefits/detriments of doing one over the others. We decide to go with the sand surface on the hope, unfounded, that sand will be softer and give less injuries. The straight line is supposed to increase fame and increase the speed of horse training.

---> Fame has moved to 21, putting us tied at #121.

[thealmighty]

7-03-03 (mm-dd-yy)

---> 2 more boxes are completed, bringing to 10 the number available.

---> With the ability to stable other stock, we keep adding boxes, building 2 more for a price of $51,300.

---> Grooming Room level 3 is completed, though the upgrade doesn't cut feed cost any more than the level 2 had.

---> We get an invitation to an auction and declare our intent to attend, though we don't know if any 1 year olds will be offered.

---> We get, finally, our first horse to board, a 4-year old male named Sly Heart. He will be staying at Almighty Farms for 48 weeks at a rate of $307 per week.

[thealmighty]

To all loyal readers:

I have not forsaken you, but rather have been involved a bit too much with my first ever mp draft in the eNFL. Our dynasty will continue shortly. Thank you and have a pleasant day and an even better tomorrow and, while we are on the subject, may your day after that be exellent, as well.

[thealmighty]

We are at the next auction which is full of 1 year olds. We have the following stock to choose from:

[/indent][font=Century Gothic]Given the fact we now have plenty of boxes in which to keep our purchases so we can take as many as we think are of high quality, which would you choose?[/font]

[font=Century Gothic]Our choices are in, and forthcoming.[/font]

[thealmighty]

In case you don't feel like looking for anything, here are some brief explanations.


KM- fastest time for 1 kilometre
Speed- maximum possible speed
Acceleration- acceleration speed
Technique- ability to overtake horses in a race
Adaptability- to the behavior of the jockey
Discipline- capacity to progress through training
Resistance- capacity to sustain injuries
Form- at this point, I don't really have a clue
Injure- shows how close to injury and how much an animal can take before it gets hurt
Endurance- ability to sustain in longer races
Remember, there are NO wrong choices, really, as I have no clue either, since I have not gotten to the training/racing stage yet myself. Your guess is as good as mine at this point.

[kingfc22]

I would say Beautiful Ladonia, Delta Lucky Lady, Hold and High Modesment. Why you ask? Have no clue, but they look good. I think.

[daedalus]

I'd go with a tandem like last time with Beautiful Ladonia and Indigo l'Omerta and leave the other boxes for other opportunities.

[klayman]

I'm thinking Hold and Imperatrice as the best of the bunch. Indigo l'Omerta isn't bad as well.

[MrBug708]

I like Hold myself

(wow that sounds wierd)

[QuikSand]

The people demand HOLD!

[thealmighty]

Thanks for checking in (and posting).

[thealmighty]

Now that we have more boxes we could take whichever horses we desired. We can now stable other stock, of course, but in the long term we hope to have the maximum number, which is 20, for our own horses and rely on race gains (game/horse slang for winnings) instead of leasing fees for our profit. With that in mind, we chose the following:

Male:

Hold: we chose Hold as our male this time, in large part, because his 9 'technique' score is excellent to start from what we have seen. His speed and acceleration are very good, as well, and with high resistance, he can undergo heavy training and, hopefully, not break down.

Female:

Imperatrice: with the highest score in both speed and endurance, she has a leg up on the other 1 year olds. She has good resistance, as well, and 80+ for acceleration. We almost passed on her due to the low adaptability, but we hope training and the proper racing choices (if we knew how to go about choosing properly, which we don't) will overcome that weakness.

Beautiful Ladonia: we felt that this was a 'no-brainer.' Just look at her numbers. 80+ in speed, acceleration, endurance, discipline and resistance. Wow!! Even not knowing anything, it seems with high scores like that we can focus more on technique and adaptability than with other horses and make, we pray, an international horse, or a breeding mare, out of her.

Note- we took 2 females to facilitate breeding later on. In the game, you can pay stud fees (don't yet know how high these fees will be though) or use your own males, to breed and get your own yearlings.

[damnMikeBrown]

I have high hopes for Beautiful Ladonia. I think she's got a little something to her. Good choice on Hold as well.

7-10-03 (mm-dd-yy)

---> We begin upgrade of our riding alleys to level 3 for $11,400. This is expected to take 3 weeks.

---> Fame score is now at 27, placing Almighty Farms at #116 out of 151.

[thealmighty]

7-17-03 (mm-dd-yy)

---> Our circle of tether is complete and ready for use. This improvement raises fame a teeny bit and helps with taming of horses.

---> Fame rose a point to 28, tying Almighty Farms for 115th place in the rankings.

[thealmighty]

7-24-03 (mm-dd-yy)

---> We see an ad to purchase a mechanical walker at level 2 for $28,518. This will save us time and about $3,000. We make the purchase.

---> We get our second boarding horse, Prince. He will be staying with us for 42 weeks and paying $328 per week for the privilege.

---> Riding alleys have been upgraded to level 3 is completed. This raises fame a tad and will help with the fitness training of our horses.

---> Fame is now at 30. We are #112.

[MrBug708]

This game sounds like it takes forever til you start racing

[thealmighty]

Hey, Bug, thanks for dropping by.

You can actually start racing immediately if you buy an older, crappy horse.

I chose to buy 1-year old horses and you cannot enter any horse in a race until they are 2-year olds. My horsies will not be eligible to run until January, 2004 (5 more months).

[daedalus]

Out of curiosity, are the 1-year olds able to use your facilities at all? Like, are they able to train and what nots?

[thealmighty]

No, daed, you cannot train a horse until they are 2, either.

[thealmighty]

7-31-03 (mm-dd-yy)

---> A note that breeding season is over is in our info box. It says the next season will begin in February. Not sure if we want to breed our females at such a young age. Have not seen nor read any horsie porn site about horse sex at 2 years old. Will need to do a bit of browsing to check.

---> The mechanical walker we bought from the ad is ready for use at level 2. It raises the efficiency of fitness exercises.

---> Straight line level 3 is also ready to go. This will raise fame a bit as well as increasing the effects of speed training.

---> Last 2 boxes we started are complete. We now have 12.

---> Begin work on the next 2 boxes at a cost of $51,300.

---> We begin construction of the mechanization improvement, level 3, for $36,100. This will improve the efficiency of the maintenance staff we are ready to hire soon as our costs for maintenance are near the cost we would spend on some help.

---> Fame is now at 34. This puts Almighty Farms tied in 105th place of 151.

[nfg22]

Was wondering whats the money down to? How much are the expendetures running with the new horses and equipment now?

[daedalus]

I don't think they start breeding at 2.

One interesting experiment may be to buy an inexpensive mare in auction with some particular quality you like and try out the breeding aspect to see how well they work out next season.

Most horses run as fillies (female horses that have never bred) as three year olds. They don't usually start breeding female race horses until age four or five. Physically, you can start breeding them as two year olds though, if you want (and this is often the case if the horse is not going to be raced). Just as with people, female horses have a shorter breeding life-span than male horses, so few female horses continue to race much past four or so, as it cuts into their breeding time. Not sure if the game reflects this or not, but that is real life.

[thealmighty]

nfg22, if you missed the first couple of posts in this dynasty, I mentioned that I could not manage to find a way to get past a year, much less win, with the starting money the game provides and have therefore 'cheated' to get some green.

By cheating, I mean taking all the $$ I had and betting on a race at the start of the game until I win, which I did. So, to answer your question, I have several plenty of money at this time, unless all my horses end up being as big of a bust as all my eNFL draftees were.

Budget shot to follow shortly, I hope.

[thealmighty]

Lokugh, thanks for the information. I guess I will race my girls as 2 year olds and see if it is worth keeping them racing, or better to breed them, i.e., are they winning Almighty Farms money and fame.

[daedalus]

I have several plenty of money at this time, unless all my horses end up being as big of a bust as all my eNFL draftees were.About how much is "several plenty"? :D

[thealmighty]

It's an Irish term, since this is (or was, at this point), St. Patricks' Day. :)

[thealmighty]

dola... (I know it's my dynasty, but the following post is related to the previous post, so dola etiquitte is being followed. :) )

...Was gonna say several million, and was gonna say plenty, and said some of both.

It would appear I am paying for the training of the horses that are boarding at Almighty Farms, but I'm not sure, since all our stock are 1-year old horses who cannot train yet. If so, I see even less way to do well at this game without doing the "big bet" gambit that I did to start the game.

[thealmighty]

8-07-03 (mm-dd-yy)

---> We have begun the upgrade of our club house to level 3 at a cost of $11,400. It will take 2 weeks to complete. When done, we should get more money for the space we lease to other horse owners.

---> Another boarder, Cash Guard, has come to Almighty Farms. We will get $328 a week for the 31 weeks he will be here.

---> Fame is now at 35, which places Almighty Farms at 103rd out of 151.

[thealmighty]

8-21-03 (mm-dd-yy)

---> The club house has been upgraded to level 3. More money for boarded horses, I hope, is the outcome.

---> We have started construction on a solarium at a cost of $38,000. This will be a level 3 improvement and will take 8 weeks to complete. This will 'significantly' raise fame and increase the efficiency of fitness training.

---> We are now down to 7 'dots' in our planning station, meaning I, as the owner of Almighty Farms, must chose where to spend my extra time to improve the stables. At this point, I am using these to cut the cost of maintenence. In the future I can use them to help with horse training or food allocation, which will improve their health.

---> Fame is now at 37. This puts us tied for 98th place in the rankings.

[thealmighty]

8-28-03 (mm-dd-yy)

---> We have finished construction of 2 more boxes. We have 14 now, 5 of which contain our own stock.

---> We pick up another horse that wishes to board at Almighty Farms. Color Kate will be here for 39 weeks, paying $482 per to stay. You can see how raising the club house to level 3 has increased the rate others will pay to have their horse stay here, as the last one was for only $328 a week.

---> We continue to work toward getting the maximum number of boxes we can, which is 20, by starting construction of 2 more at a cost of $51,300. You might hope the cost of boxes would go down, since we should be pros at building them by now, but no such fiscal luck.

[thealmighty]

9-04-03 (mm-dd-yy)

---> Two new boarding horses come to stay. Texas Blue will be at Almighty Farms for 41 weeks, paying at a rate of $474 per. Old Nelly will pay $501 for each of the 43 weeks of her visit.

---> Fame is now 38. We are tied for 96th place.

---> There is an ad on our information page to purchase a saddlery improvement, level 2, for $17,873. This is a $2,000 savings so we make the buy. Saddlery supposedly gives a moderate (whatever that means) fame jump and increases the efficiency of the staff.

---> We jump into a tie for 94th place with a fame score of 40.

Keep it up, thealmighty. I'm enjoying this very much. :D

As far as I can see those horses are costing you way more than they are giving you. I wonder who made this game? Well Im following and I like it.

Thanks, duckman.

nfg22, that's what I said several posts above. I can't see, again, how to do well straightforwardly (new word?) at this game. That's why I had to do the betting gambit.

I assumed getting horses to board would see a player through til they had horses winning money in races, but as you say, they are, seemingly, costing more than they pay. Another conundrum, eh.

[thealmighty]

I have been looking for a 'set' of horses to post so we can see the differences in the competition levels the game gives for the horses, which are as best as I can tell so far, from least to best:
Listed
Level 3
Level 2
Level 1
Here is a look at a horse in each category taken from the ads I see for horses on sale. These may be lower end nags if they are for sale by advertisement, but I don't know. Just for the sake of something to compare.

The price is what I would have had to pay to purchase the horse from the ad.

What do you notice about these horses? A few things I see, some of which are obvious:winnings are obviously more as purses go up with level, I assume, though the number of races is the same.

there is a big difference in km record to be a Level 1 horse and the others.

the big 3- speed, acceleration and endurance go up alot most of the time from one level to the next.

technique and adaptation are extremely variable.

discipline appears to be very important.

injury numbers go down, compared to resistance, about ten points. This is a reason not to buy a horse with a very low initial resistance number since, as reported before, the more you train the BIG-3, the lower your injury score will be, meaning a fragile animal.

Interesting how little difference there are in speed between the claimer and the G3. Otherwise, I definitely agree with your assessment.

Here is a look at the horses I have purchased so far at auctions to compare to those posted above:

When I finally get to train these suckers, it will be interesting choosing a program.

Any thoughts? Each horse can have a program tailored to it, but I have not seen exactly how it's going to work. 3 more months 'til that point.

[nfg22]

From what I see is technique. All of the things that matter to win a race, you beat the G.1 horse. Except technique. Maybe running with technique would get them below the 1 minute mark?The math in my head tells me that the correlation between the speed and the acceleration going up yet the numbers for total time going down is being held back because of technique.

[kingfc22]

Almighty Farms has all the speed in the world. That's for sure.

[thealmighty]

True, kingfc22. Unfortunately, I don't know what stat plays what, or what %, of a role in determining race outcomes. We'll see in a few gametime months.

[thealmighty]

9-25-03 (mm-dd-yy)

---> The saddlery improvement we bought by advertisement is ready to go at level 2. This is supposed to boost fame and increase efficiency of the staff.

---> 2 more boxes have been completed. We now have 16 of the maximum 20 allowable.

---> As usual, we immediately start, for $51,300, the next group of 2 boxes to get to the max as fast as possible.

---> We get an invitation to the next auction and accept.

---> Nices Chemin is the next horse to come stay at Almighty Farms. The fee will be $512 a week for 37 weeks.

---> Fame is now at 41. We are tied for 90th place.

[thealmighty]

10-02-03 (mm-dd-yy)

---> The auction turned out to be mostly older stock. The few 1-year old horses available were not deemed of sufficient quality for us to bid on. Almighty Farms still has 5 horses.

---> We start construction of a paddock, level 3, for $19,950. This improvement should take 3 weeks to complete.

---> Fame is up a point to 42 and Almighty Farms is up a place, tied at 89th.

[thealmighty]

10-16-03 (mm-dd-yy)

---> Our solarium, level 3, is complete. This improvement raises fame and improves efficiency of fitness training.

---> A note is received telling us that our training tracks and riding alleys are unusable due to heavy rains. We hope this doesn't occur too often, though at the moment it is meaningless as we are not training our horses, anyway.

---> We decide to begin the long, 12 week construction of a pool. The cost is $38,000 and should reduce the time needed to return to training after an injury, as well as a rise in fame score.

---> We see an ad for a level 3 loop track that costs $116,850. For some reason, this is one of the few building ads that is actually more expensive to purchase than to build ourselves. Since we are thinking about it anyway, we decide to go ahead and build the loop track on our own at a cost of $108,000 for a 6 week job. This is an important improvement, given our horses, as it will help with horse behavior and adaptation to being riden by a jockey.

---> Fame is now at 44, good for a tie for 87th out of 151.

[daedalus]

With all these construction going on, what is the status of your "time allotment" now?

[thealmighty]

daed, a time allotment update is in the next update for 10-23.

[thealmighty]

10-23-03 (mm-dd-yy)

---> The level 3 paddock construction is complete. This improvement will increase the efficiency of resting periods of horses during training.

---> 2 more boxes have been completed. Our total is now 18.

---> We begin the construction of the final 2 boxes allowable at a cost, for the final time, of $51,300.

---> Our planning time 'dots' are down to 6 now that most of our infrastructure is complete. This means we will pretty much be allotting our usable time to horse actions when they begin training unless, when we finally get some staff, we need an increase in morale for any particular staff member.

---> Fame is now at 45, putting Almighty Farms in a tie for 86th place.

[JonInMiddleGA]

Interesting read.

[nfg22]

Almighty, is there any way to raise technique like what kind of training? Di you agree with me on the whole technique issue?

[thealmighty]

Jon, thanks for stopping by. Hope you continue to enjoy this. It should start getting more interesting when 2004 comes along in gametime.

nfg22, yes you can train technique and I do agree with you on its probable importance. When I was betting on races to make money, I would often see a horse who seemed head-and-shoulders above the rest in speed, endurance, etc..., and would bet on them. When the race was run, they would often come in towards the back of the pack and I could not understand why. Now, I think perhaps technique, for starters, plays a bigger role than I thought then and horses who should win do not because, as you surmise, speed and other indicators don't help if the horse doesn't know how to use them.

Of course, looking at other stats of Level 1 horses, it seems that 60 or 80 isn't the goal, but perhaps, and hopefully, more like in the 20s for technique to compete until the higher level. I will, naturally, be keeping a closer eye on this, and other, numbers that I have not really watched up til now.

Thanks for reading and taking a participatory interest.

[thealmighty]

Ok, it is finally time to delve into the world of employees, as we will need some trainers and so forth when january comes along. As usual, the game is not very helpful in this regard. The manual has a grand total of 1 page devoted to the subject of staff, and a third of that page is how to hire crap, which is easy as you just go to the hire screen and pick your people. Anyway, a brief summary and explanation of duties to follow.

[MrBug708]

Does the staff have different attributes?

[thealmighty]

Only one of them does, the lad.

[thealmighty]

STAFF: There are six types of employees available for hire in Final Stretch. Since the manual sucks, I am not totally sure what each does, completely, but here is a description of what they are supposed to do for you when hired.

Employees come with a set number of organization points. These points are used in various ways and may be used up to the point that you need to hire another of that type to continue to handle increased amounts of work (yeah, kinda confusing).Assistant- secretary type person. Handles administrative tasks. Each employee hired takes one organization point from the points available.


Maintenance Staff- keeps buildings and training facilities in working order. Buildings 'cost' a number of organization points to keep operating. The more buildings, the more maintenance workers are needed to keep the farm running and the facilities available for use.


Staff Manager- overseer of the staff. More competent managers have more organizational points to use.


Stableman- takes care of the horses and watches over their diet needs. The more organizational points they come with, the more competent they are in this task.


Trainers- one of the people/methods available for training horses. Trainers have 6 possible training areas they can work with a horse to improve it. Again, the higher the organizational points he/she comes with, the more competent he/she is.


Lad- a training jockey, the most complete (and confusing) way to train a horse. Lads have 8 categories in their training, including resting. Training by a lad can be done very specifically, with changes being made weekly as needed. Lads are the only employee with a set of statistics which are for each of their 8 training areas. You can choose a specific lad to train a certain horse based on the proficiencies the lad has, matched to the needs of the horse.


You now know as much as I about employees in this game. Kinda scary for the future of Almighty Farms when you think about it. Hires will be coming in the next few weeks.

As training of horses can begin at age 2, and horses all age on January 1 of a year, we are close to that point and will be explaining in more detail (as much as we can, given the sorry manual and such) the trainer and the lad and their strengths, weaknesses and so forth.

[thealmighty]

STAFF II: Being an idiot, and posting at 3am, I forgot to mention that each staff member has a salary of course, but I also forgot to mention one of the other important aspects of personnel- morale.

Each employee comes with a morale rating. This rating determines how well a staff member will do the assigned task, or how efficiently he/she will work. This number will change every week but, as usual, the game gives you no information on what will raise or lower a workers morale number. It also doesn't say at what level of morale the staff member will start to do a poor job.

If an employee has a very high morale for a given week or weeks, they will instill a good feeling to all other employees, and everyone will work more efficiently until that persons morale drops below the needed high-water mark.

Just another thing to worry about that you don't know how to make an effect.

[thealmighty]

10-30-03 (mm-dd-yy)

---> WTF :confused: Fame has dropped to 36 for unknown reasons. We are now back to 100th place.

---> We see an advertisement for the career improvement at a cost of $21,968. This would cost $22,800 normally, so we make the buy.

[thealmighty]

11-06-03 (mm-dd-yy)

---> Our ad bought career improvement has arrived and been installed. This will improve the efficiency of fitness training and give a slight boost to our fame rating.

---> We improve our mechanical walker to level 3 for $9,975. It will take only one week.

---> WooHoo! Fame has rebounded all the way to 37, placing us in 99th out of 151.

[thealmighty]

11-13-03 (mm-dd-yy)

---> We increase our career improvement to level 3 at a cost of $22,800. This should take 1 week.

---> We also decide to raise to level 3 our saddlery improvement. This will take 2 weeks to complete at a cost of $4,275.

---> The mechanical walker, level 3, is ready to role. This improvement will raise the effieciency of our fitness training.

[damnMikeBrown]

I'm unsatisfied with your progress. Play faster, or else. . .

[thealmighty]

Will I find the head of my favorite horse under my covers? ;)

[thealmighty]

11-20-03 (mm-dd-yy)

---> As expected, our level 3 career improvement is ready. This will improve our fame and increase the efficiency of fitness training.

---> The final 2 boxes allowable are ready as well. Our final total of available stalls for stock is 20.

---> We have 2 new boarders at Almighty Farms. Ophelie will stay for 45 weeks at a price of $467 per. Jimmy Grand Amour is here for 42 weeks @ $462 per.

---> Fame is rebounding, up to 38. We are in 99th place.

[thealmighty]

11-27-03 (mm-dd-yy)

---> The building of our loop track is finished. This will raise our fame score and help with horse behavior and adapting to being riden by a jockey.

---> The saddlery improvement has also been completed at level 3. Saddlery will increase the efficiency of our staff and increase fame, as well.

---> Another horse has chosen our little piece of Heaven as its temporary home. Kinshasa Du Chemin will stay for 44 weeks @ $497 per week.

---> Fame has risen back close to our previous high. We are at 43, which puts Almighty Farms tied at 89th place out of 151.

[MrBug708]

Race Race Race

[thealmighty]

Soon, very soon.

[thealmighty]

If I had been more clever, I would have said "Hold your horses." :cool:

[thealmighty]

12-11-03 (mm-dd-yy)

---> Another boarding horse has made its way to Almighty Farms. Jeune Bar will be paying $531 for 45 weeks to stay with us.

---> Fame is at 44. We are tied for 88th place in the stable ratings.

[thealmighty]

12-18-03 (mm-dd-yy)

---> We receive an invitation to the final auction of the year. We have space available if there is a horse we like, but we aren't really looking to buy unless somthing really sticks out.

---> We are now alone in 88th place in the rankings with a fame score of 45.

[thealmighty]

Next up, we finally get around to hiring our staff members.

This is the new staff that is charged with running, maintaining and training anything and everything at Almighty Farms.

We have chosen not to hire any lads as we feel the manual does not prepare you for the week-by-week training that a lad is to be used for. We will have enough to think about, enough areas to make mistakes, without having to deal with a weekly training schedule for our stock.

More on staff details when we begin part 2 of our dynasty when the new year breaks in 2 weeks.

12-25-03 (mm-dd-yy)

---> We attend the auction and see only two 1-year old horses. We buy one of them, with details to follow.

---> With the new purchase and buildings mostly in place, our planning 'dots' ( personal time allotment) are down to 3. Not much we can do to aid in running Almighty Farms on a personal level with all the details we must oversee.

---> Another boarder has arrived. Kelly Rose will be staying with us for 45 weeks @ $526 per week.

Our newest purchase is in her stall now. Feline was purchased at auction, bringing to 6 the number of horses owned by Almighty Farms. Her numbers:

As you can see, she has great potential, especially to come from behind with her acceleration. Her speed will need training, but with her relatively high discipline score, we hope that will not be a burden.

Thoughts?

[MrBug708]

Seems like a good all around horse. Excellent accerlation

[kingfc22]

nice buy

[QuikSand]

Just checking to see if any horses are racing yet. Guess not.

Congratulations on your dedication. I simply didn't have the patience to go through all this stuff to eventualy get to a horse racing game. I'll be interested to see if you regard it as time well spent, eventually.

[condors]

i try to play this game (every so often) without cheating and i have yet have anything worthy a good gaming experience although i think there could be a good game in there

[thealmighty]

MrBug and kingfc, thanks for the input. It felt kinda stupid, in a way, to buy her since she was one of only 2 horses in the category we were interested in, but her numbers match up very well with our other stock.

Quik, we'll see on the time well spent thing, but as for the horses racing and the training, that will start with the next update. I will be starting a new thread for year 2. That will be the start of my racing career as all my horses will turn 2 years old on January 1, 2004 in game time, which is when the fun, and more costly mistakes, probably, will begin.

condors, I know what you mean. I tried to play without the big bet to start, but I could never get enough money to upgrade anything with the horses you can buy with start-up money. They just were not good enough to win good purses to get the cash you need to buy better horses. I hope now that I am on the cusp of the racing/training, it will pick up in interest, though I don't really know how I'm gonna present this stuff, dynasty formwise, as there has obviously been no precursor to guide me.

Thank you all for reading and posting. :D

Almighty Farms, Chapter 1: Epilogue

We have finally made it through our first year with, I hope, a minimum of screw-ups. Preparations are underway for the beggining of our real purpose, the training and racing of the horses we have purchased this past year.

With the next click of the time forward button, in game, 2004 will comence and the supposedly funner stuff will be upon us. With that in mind, we close this chapter (and thread) in anticipation of a new beggining (always thought that statement, a new beggining, was a bit redundant, but oh well).

Hope to see you in Chapter 2, Almighty Farms: The Race is On.

Me neither, but I don't really know how to report on them in an exciting way. There is no great race report in the game, so I could have to watch them all and try to write up what I see like some Kentucky Derby person. Don't know how it will read. We will see.....SOON.
