A Different Solution To Spammi

First off, All you in favor of spamming don`t get me wrong, I do it myself at least half the time on RT, And I know its a part of the game, And it`s impossible to truely eliminate, but lessing it could be good for the game.

Anyway, One half arsed solution could be to simply MAJORLY, And I mean MAJORLY, not just like 2:1 Upkeep/PR, increase the upkeep/build costs of capital ships. Rather than mess with build rates which easily unbalances the game, Just make it extremely expensive to spam.

For all those turnbased bigger empires complaining about lower build rates screwing you over due to your higher base, now it wont matter. Your a bigger empire youll have the cash to spam somewhat.

And some will tell me this is unfair to the lower empires, but you can easily destroy these spams with destroyers such as queens and the like cheaply like you always have, yes it takes a lot of turns, it takes a lot of turns to do everything, get over it.

Sure, lower empires will have a much harder time spamming, but hey, its less of them doing it, and shoulden`t being a large empire have it`s bonuses for being able to hold all those planets?

It`ll solve that viral problem right up good, They be broke they keep spamming like they do, lots of added cost to pyth and angel..Although this would be totally unfair to the marauders, so this idea is useless till stephen comes around or Maraudian gets more power.

I know theres loads of stuff I forgot to include, I know this idea sux, But I got the idea from another thread like it, so hopefully someone will be inspired to get an even better grander idea that may finally do it.

The idea is also up to CONSTRUCTIVE comments/criticisms etc etc. I still have faith in you GC Community that you can do something other than flame ! =D

Cheers Mates !

Why not just increase upkeep for maru ships for virals only? Like increase maru ship upkeep 10 fold for viral, but maru and collective still keep the same upkeep.

well, the main problem of the idea is, that there is a strong unwill to increase the upkeep of maru ships.

So if one increases the upkeep of terran/miner big battleships virals will spam pyth and angles even more often (if a further increase in `spammity` is possible at all), i.e., virals will be further boosted.

And be4 you respond, i also dont know, why one can not increse the maru ship upkeep and simply also increase the maru race modifyer to make up for the economical disadvantage....

and btw, no, i dont think big empires should get very big bonuses for keeping their empires, i think just the opposite should be the case.

did somebody say flame.

*lights a match and burns post*

or change it fundamentally. Make it so that you can distribute the same ship across all 10 stacks xD

Yea, here`s one:

get rid of stacking in favor of a different battle system

xD

*braces for the verbal abuse*
