Data use for Achaea?

I'm going on vacation and will have limited internet access. Anybody know what data use is like? Light bashing, no or little fighting, using the website client while traveling.

It's all text over telnet so can't see it being a huge amount. You probably use more data browsing Facebook for 10 minutes than you would playing Achaea for a period of time.

A cursory check looks to be hitting around 1MB/minute over the first few minutes using the Nexus client at client.achaea.com - this was with fairly aggressive use of the client hitting news, messages, spamming SCORE FULL and HELP a bit, bashing a critter or two. A large amount of the bandwidth is accounted for by client art and music assets downloading so once everything is cached it'll drop off significantly. A second 5 minute session, e.g., hit <10kb in client assets. The actual text output to and from the game is negligible.

Thanks to you both!

If you're using a client that doesn't utilize gmcp, that'll be quite a bit less information as well.
