Marauders

Give marauder 25 cols and they will be really appealing for everybody.

Better yet -60% seeing they have very low upkeep in the first place. It`s viable!

I bet there`d be a few more marauders if comm were a viable income. It`s already one of the very weakest income types and wouldn`t exactly make them incredibly overpowered. with maybe a -40% racial, it`d be a nice little gig.

pretty cool actually. I think alot of people would go for that :)

I don`t want a scout. We already have a starbase (it`s complete cr@p though). I don`t see why marauders need that distinction from collectives. I like the way collectives are.

Ishamael you are probably right though I don`t know the actual formula although it would seem like it would be somewhat equal since marus get twice as much, colls can have twice the pop though that consumes a little more food in the plunder process.

slavyzz, collective make more from plundering than marauders because of the double population shenanigans

I feel collective should have scouts and a starbase, maru should be the "only" plundering race

TBK the bonus collectives get is not nearly as high as maru

Maru is balanced already. The problem I have is collective having plundering, as i feel it should be reserved for maru only. Perhaps a 100% increase in plundering but that`s about it

I didn`t even mention you or put your name on the line. I just don`t see how market transfers became common game practice considering there`s been people in the past getting force restarted for the exact same thing. I like the old ways yarrr

@Loof & Ishamael im glad to see you know full well just what admins can see/do as decided by stephen glad to know you two aren`t just unbiasedly against me because i happen to be CC ^^

drop there comm negative to like -80 it would compliment the low upkeep and add a new income for the 5mil n down pr fighters of the maru variety :) >.>

...new to the game? I must have missed something. This all looks like bs to me- the market thinger. definite cheating, but hey. what do i know.

regardless, the topic has been slain!

Yoshi talking about that BW stated on the forum a while back that it was ok to buy up something then post it at a higher price and have another dude buy that....Which have led to a big amount of guards on rt buying raw mat at 1 and getting rich miner/terrans to buy it at 3, i`ve made cash on it too, not by buying any raw but just posting what i make at 2 or 3. But yes buying raw mat at anything but 1 is not for production, thats only for giving people cash, and raw mat should be capped at 1 or at least people should get suspended for abusing it like they did in the freakn days....

Same goes for the posting of food at low price, have guards buy it up and post higher, then buying that, which BW stated was legal if the same person that didn`t post low food was the one buying it at high price, thus making it legal to do market trading if you are more than 2 people involved....also would have led to suspension when freakn was here.

More colony space, better build rates, more targets. ARE YOU GUYS TALKING ABOUT COLLS?!

18hour(s) ago allrighty well an admin with no bias towards certain feds/players then, or a nonplayer admin who took the time to learn the game a bit...

/me wants freakn back :( this blatant market cheating that`s going on these days with admin approval is just silly

Lolwut...?

Glad to see some people keep on topic and post ideas :) i personally like the new D battleship idea, as for build rate well guards do have the #1turn/pr sb plus worse come to worse you could pyth spam them ;) haha...i also love the idea of extra colony space, atleast 1 right :P. altho that might take alil more work from stephen for that one. (not 100% sure how that would work) as for touching there infra mods...i guess it would be good for alil bit of cg or maybe up agri some to compete with all the terrans/coll out there. and drop the plundering part alil since there are few targets now and days..


Keep up the posting guys! starting to come up with something here as a group. nice to see the effort :)

Uhhmmm,,, and when I snap my fingers we`ll all be BACK ON TOPIC again!

*SNAP*

fuzzy, I think we need another D.Battleship and slight build rate increase (just spent all morning chasing Guard SB`s which are >6mil PR per 45 turns!)

This one is for Mandela!!
/me throws dice..
