Dark Marauder Discussion 2

I got a cool idea, if you restart as terran or a miner why not make the new terran homeworld like 4000 land or something, and make the home world type a forrest or something or give like special mods on the planets (like a choice of +500% to commercial or agriculture). It would be a nice bonus for doing a successful UW.

Why would anyone complain about there being "too much of an advantage" after they blew up the galaxy, thats not exactly a mean feat is it? and the advantage of infra levels and ship research would not be significant as it just saves time, not as though its somethign only achievable if you set off a UW. All the ideas I have seen here are realistic, there has to be a pretty big reward otherwise whats the point? which is what many have said before, im just sticking in my 6 penny worth :)

Why only one Aba? Still would see no point doing an UW for one of those rewards.

yup.. that can be another option if the person don want to be dmaru for whatever reason..

if you can manage to successfully do a UW and are already paid almost of a requirement to do a UW anyways due to time taken to build up etc) then the restart as any race `reward` is null and void realistically, a token jesture.

As for the winners list thats a great thing, but if you activate under a cirtain PR you don`t even get on it IIRC.

Now people will not want to UW and restart their large empire for several reasons, one is loosing colonies another is loosing their infra and another is the prospect of starting afresh.

The rewards described below seem to be the realistic rewards that should of been implimented with the UW all along.

I propose a slight alteration however as I never actually saw the thread cos I was enjoying RL instead of playing here when it was posted:

the options are:

- +XX Infra levels, game speed dependant or reduced infra cost for first 50 levels (50% or so dunno, scales with game speed again obviously)

- All ship infra done, yes even K class for guard

- Carry over a single planet (NOT clusters of any sort, with a max land allowance to avoid imbalanced, must be present in the empire at teh time of UW detonation) from old empire, it is as a freshly explored planet (50 loyalty, 1 housing 10 pop, randomly generated ore...ust like a newly explored planet)


You get to pick ONE of the above

Granted there is a chance none of this would happen

yup.. the uw idea sound cool to me.. love the giving good colonies alot.. its really a pain to explore nice cluster.. hence it will be good to have cluster ready when starting a new empire all over again after the uw..

I never complained. I rather like the idea of UW rewards.

Ya know, just saying. =P

well for a uw idea i would say, after a uw DarkMaru is being good, and have one ship research over would be fine, i would say either dm, or ship research over.

nobody seemed to like my idea of UW rewards , turnbased cried imba at the idea of artifacts and ships etc , as much as i know the idea will work its not something worth me forcing on yall

The threads died because I got really busy with life. ^^;

The maru upkeep fixing was part of the dark marauder thing, as the two races will be sharing ships. We can`t really work on an economy for dark marauders before knowing what their base ships will be like. Since it seems we`ll be maintaining marus mostly as they are...

nope ragnarok.. its a uw reward ideas started around the same time deil proposed the viral upkeep petition i think.. cant find the thread though..

N.E.W.B.I.E.S newbs for life, we never give in, we come with spams and back ups, and make others laugh. !!!!!!!!!!!!! Enjoy sorry totally off topic, wanna keep things cool lol

srry as this was abit off topic.. erm.. wat about those uw rewards that had been discussed before? like bring over a ship to restart race, or giving good cluster? what is the status?? rejected??

admin, and i posted the basic outline in another thread , it will take months to make a perfect plan for it , then months to get stephen to do it ,

at the moment d maru shiplist re-build is taking place though
