BadWolf 2015-11-07 |  | Raistilin RT UW |  | Would certainly be interesting, but sadly guardians can`t uw.
But on that note what are your opinions on guardians being unable to UW? |
|
AdmiralSarek 99+ day(s) ago | The guard UW shouldn`t blow up the server, guards are peaceful and have made that mistake before. It should be a Super UN and put everyone into DP for a week. Something like our fleet is so powerful we won`t let anyone fight for a week. |
DraconianParadise 99+ day(s) ago | Would be a good idea to unite the server as an event |
EternalWolf 99+ day(s) ago | Ill go next after sib i guess.... lol (automatic fail) |
Sibiriangun 99+ day(s) ago | Its an interesting idea for sure! When you go guard and use time to setup a big empire, you are stuck for good (unless you chose to restart a several your old empire, which I guess rarely happens. I dont think the ships as such are OP for a UW fleet, as they all have low range, though the ship upkeep would unbalance it imo. Big guards with the econ for stocking up minerals would get so much more fleet for their cash with the 1/9 upkeep to PR.
That is btw something I think should be looked at. On ultra for instance I can max cash as tax miner in a short time. Those cash I can move to whatever empire in my fed (he buys all food on the market and resell at 100 to me) within the rules and there goes an easy UW. It is too easy for the dominant feds on the TB servers to UW young empires imo. The same goes for normal and to some extent fast.
But back to topic. I know guard UWs arent coming and with the current econ setup I dont think they should. It would also undermine the whole story of the guardian defenders. |
Deathroe 99+ day(s) ago | successful Guardian UW = whole server Re-Set ??? |
TheBlueKnight 99+ day(s) ago | I like the idea!
I think Rastlin should be first followed by SIbiriangun |
EternalWolf 99+ day(s) ago | Though as agri terran, id love to have quartz, galleon and borr |
EternalWolf 99+ day(s) ago | Theres a couple people who use them. I think some of those are in VM or i havent hit in a while.
My ideal reward, and it goes back somewhat to the old ship rewards, is like you said. 2 or 3 ships total, chosen from any race not incl. KZ and DM.
Pike, chlor, tourm, bark, nirv etc...
Also a 10 or 15k planet of a type dependent on the race chosen.
A pile of rare and unique arties or commons
Start with a +15% econ boost.
On the note of ship rewards, for balance purposes the upkeep and build cost need to be substantially higher. No cheap pikes for Guard lol |
UnholyMoo 99+ day(s) ago | Ah...yeah forgot about that :D. A massive (3k) Forest planet then?
I`ve never really seen anyone use the UW reward ships. |
EternalWolf 99+ day(s) ago | I like it. Cept coll cant use u fert but i get what youre saying ^^ |
UnholyMoo 99+ day(s) ago | Allowed to restart as any playable race (excluding Viral) and take 3 ships from any playable race with them - and start with a U.Class of choice as the homeworld?
e.g. restart as Coll with U.Fert as base and take Tourm, Pyth and Borr with them. |
EternalWolf 99+ day(s) ago | What would a guards reward be? |
UnholyMoo 99+ day(s) ago | If Guards could UW then perhaps a success should have a different result.
Instead of "Destroying the Galaxy" it could perhaps freeze up empires meaning that post UW you have to spend around 1500 turns with no + or - income/food/min income to revive your empire.
Its an idea - instead of OM they should have to research something much more expensive though |
BadWolf Game-Admin 99+ day(s) ago | *BadWolf notes that`s no intention to change that, BadWolf was merely curious. |
mompyuser 99+ day(s) ago | Interesting twist for an UW /me applaudes for the idea |
ThEpAkIsTaNiEmPirE 99+ day(s) ago | Yeah guardians would die so quick if they could UW |
Outsidthbox 99+ day(s) ago | if you want guards to UW then make them hard to play |
Zexion 99+ day(s) ago | I would support that idea. Bring a twist. |
EternalWolf 99+ day(s) ago | Im undecided.. our ships arent built for that sadly.. theyre built to kill UWs lol |
Raistilin 99+ day(s) ago | Consider this though, if i could UW, you wouldn`t have to fight this empire anymore. |
