Thats more work than they can handle.

Great idea, but the way its put now, it seems to be unbalanced. I could very well see drones be used as a cheap way to take the air out every single time. But with testing, would be a great update.

People nuke turret only because there is no other valid strategy to war as a solo player. This only makes it worse. Want the end of nuke turreting? Make an interesting war system, dont just change random values, hoping for the best. Also nuke turrets arent even an issue. Small nations dont get nuked, whales can afford to get nuked.

"Basically, the goal being to make solo (or small group) play more viable." - suggests to let big aas to have 9 people countering a war instead of 3. This literally makes it worse. Not to mention, this kills piracy entirely, unless u want to raid up to 3 wars at a time. If i use my APE, imma get looted for more than i raid. This is absurd.

This is simultaneously the funniest and the dumbest thing ive read in my entire life. Thank you.

Are you dumb !? P.S. I would have chosen a stronger word, but pretty sure Ive already got a strike UwU

Wow so cool, I don’t recall ever asking about your opinion on the matter tho 😛

There are not that many people sub c20 who own nukes and missiles. and there are even less of those who actually get hit by them. If you are, it is either your behavior that is the problem or you have overly excessive infra. And since the only efficient way to make money sub c20 is raiding (pretty much everything else is gonna take u over a year to go c30), it doesn't matter much at all.

Truly. This tarnation couldn't be more confusing. So lemme explain... LoD bank (aa, not offshore) got taken, it was 8bn... Then Barbie used 4bn of those, and offshored the rest... Those are the "destroyed" 4bn at question. "forcefully returned" means crying to Borg and Yarr... Damn u r really playing my kink here

idk how bout u, but i can do this forever 😛

Relax love. Soap or no soap, its still less painful when u are relaxed UwU

Totally worth the effort.

not funny, try again.

While the problem is real, i don't think dynamic slots will cut it. The way I see it, if we are talking about a relatively new player (even if he already got the mechanics and general strategies) he will hardly stand a chance against even 2 attackers/raiders (especially if those are downdeclares). It makes it better of course, but the issue will remain. Even if we take 1 full mill guy vs 2 standard mmr guys who militarise after the declaration, it is not hard to calculate that 2 guys will almost always militarise fast enough to win the war. I think the real problem here is the absolute simplicity of the war system. it isn't strategic in any way, and even players with absolutely 0 skill or knowledge about the game will be able to win against much more experienced solo player, because of well known and absolute winning strategies at each case. The real solution here would be making the war mechanic such that there is a certain unknown factor to it, mainly through the complication of the war system. Much like in chess, where rules are known but you do not know "perfect" strategies. This would also help with this: in a way that wouldn't completely demolish fun war aspect of the game. But ofc a large part of the game might be thrown off by the new complexity. and many large alliances will not be able to function entirely (Like Immortals and most of Eclipse) due to insufficient neuron count. But i dont think any of this really matters bc Alex would never make it happen. Even on easier updates, game regularly falls apart, i can't imagine what would happen if such a drastic update rolled in. Not to mention most older players would hate any change like this. And even if it did happen, it would take at least a year to code... do idk. ;tldr this is kinda pointless

I'm BoM, nice to meet u man 👋

Who are u again?

Also I can't say that my wifi is slow, in fact irs pretty fast, but even casual (no-images) pages load more than a second. It gets frustrating with snipes and such.

Prithee transport thyself to happy lubricated doodle, you flummery pillion child born out of wedlock of a harlot.

There is no issue with paperless, unless u are a pixelhugger

oh for god's sake. not this again

Trust me, I would. Alex should just allow everyone to buy 10 nukes a day at this point.

Sounds good to me. I will just nuck Eclipse every other week till your pixel-huggers are over it.

damn so tiny... and here i thought i could finally go target hunting on forums.

If u want to gamble, just go waste ur money on keno. u dont need much more.
