yes theres been a few ultimate weapons recently so its not the best timing for this , but the fact there has been a few recently should have opened alot of eyes to a fun area of the game that nobody really shows much interest in , my belief is its too hard for the petty gains you get , so for a long time i came up with idea`s possible for an Admin to do.
below is a list of current and extra features that can all be implimented , are balanced , and greatly increase the apeal of launching an Ultimate Weapon :-
1. Name in hall of fame
2. Restart Any Race
3. 90% damage to all none fed members
4. Carry one ship research over from the race you activate it to the race you become ( Excluding Guardian ) i also feel this idea is great for stacking ( more UW`s = another research + past ones so eventually you could have your own lucas empire )
if this idea is to be added although ive already spent a extreemly long time investigating and the scariest thing imaginable is A miners with D angels / pyth , players must know that if any form of impossabilities exploits or loopholes are found the ships can be removed , however i have tested this and doubt it can go wrong , lucas himself can easily be beaten by stacks or none stacks at any power by any race etc
5. a super/perfect planet reward for your new empire , the choice is yours , the planet must be single not cluster ( for example 10k Barren / fertile / Eden ) land size of the single planet can be discussed and even alter per gamespeed or w/e before being added.
6. artifact package , the contents of the package again is discussable for each gamespeed but an example would be ( 25 regalo / 10 BTC / 6 PCC )
Notes:
Gaurdians are excluded from 4. so G class from A miner also wont carry over.
virals only research is the scout
none exploration race cant explore with scout

99+ day(s) ago | For 4, 5, and 6... are all of these part of a package, or does one choose what one wishes?
Have we decided if a research is given or a specific ship?
Are the rewards stackable? |
ArchAng3l
99+ day(s) ago | well you can think of it as the empire setting off uw turn to the bright side and become guard to protect the universe.. since it has the experience of setting off uw it will be in a better position to protect the universe compare to other guard and hence got the upgrade ship..
or you can think of it as the empire setting off the uw could not completly go over to the bright side when it become guard.. and hence it got a ship which is exactly the same as kalzul, which is supposely the dark side of guard and able to set off uw...
donno.. jus running idea thru my mind :P |

99+ day(s) ago | I think that if you restart as a Guardian after a successful UW, you shouldn`t get anything at all extra because Guardians are supposed to be the protectors of the universe, and it would be kinda backwards to reward one for having just set off a UW :P
couldnt have worded it better myself , but they did set off an UW once , silly little energy things...

99+ day(s) ago | erm.. was thinking about this.. since guard cant get new ship from this special thing, would it be possible to at least give guard an upgrade li or xe such that the stat is the same as kalzul or oni the ship attributes is the same *99% ionized hull* |
Deiloche
99+ day(s) ago | So what is the general status on this? |
bipbippy
99+ day(s) ago | uh oh. better suspend yourself for a week. :P |
Maraudian
99+ day(s) ago | strange how all my none admin posts are now admin posts , a few of those were rather unsuitable for an admin too -_- |
bipbippy
99+ day(s) ago | uh-oh watch out - Maraudian officially has power again!

99+ day(s) ago | 3. i know that this cant be done but i have always felt that artifacts should definitely be affected by any uw.
4. Single ship a whole class would be too much in my opinion.
5. I quite liked GalacticKillers idea of having 10% land calculated from when the uw holder completes and that being given in a planet of choice but for people with low land base of maybe 10k
6. Ive not really played enough turnbased to comment |
ThEpAkIsTaNIeMpIrE
99+ day(s) ago | multi ships of the same class because, this is once a life time uws are hard and plus the same ships in the same category will probably be the same ship with different hull or range like Thor and zues and Odin.
Just one ship doesn`t effect anything as much, land size would be 15k large or fertile depending what they want |
Bran
99+ day(s) ago | My opinion is:
4. One ship only, no class that gives 2
5. Not sure maybe the same sizes as were given for attacking the NPC`s
6. Could maybe have it the same for each game speed as it`s going to take more artifacts to activate it on the slower servers.
All in all it sounds fun and I look forward to seeing the rewards |
Maraudian
99+ day(s) ago | well anyhow im afraid more discussion is needed before the above are considered
for example
4 be added / stackable or not / neither ? , should ship research that give 2 ships instead of one be selectable ?
5 how much land should the single colony be ?
6 how many of what artifacts should be in the package / what alterations per gamespeed ?
7 something else that an admin can do perhaps ? |
Maraudian
99+ day(s) ago | an atack uw on rt would be pretty suicidal as maru , if you lose for example your highly likely to drop below 500k and bye bye uw in a flash , theres also so many artifacts ect flying around , however collective have a starbase making it a little easier to ensure they dont drop below the required powers , but then you would need to chill about for pretty much the whole 48 hours |

That says that you are very wrong, yoyo. Many times did loof have to fight for borders to pull that one off. TPE is correct, sk8... as much as it pains me to say. |
AGM94
99+ day(s) ago | yes the UW holder can still attack bip just think it has been a few since someone has been in a good position to do it on rt so they generally dont |
bipbippy
99+ day(s) ago | A UW holder CAN attack
unless someone changed that while I was away |
ThEpAkIsTaNIeMpIrE
99+ day(s) ago | well thats pretty much hard as maru then lol |
