Egold Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 I noticed most people dont have ships- they might have 5 buildings for all other units, but only 3 for ships, for example. But why is that? are they just to expensive? I feel like people would want large navies to blockade others, and to protect there own trade and shipping, but that doesn't seem to be the case. why dont enormous food producers have enormous navies to protect there revenue and trade? I feel like I am missing something here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacob Knox Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 Well first of all, you can only have up to 3 dry docks (not 5). Why? I don't know. Ask Alex lol. Second, yes, the main reason most people don't have ships is because they are generally too expensive to maintain during peace time and the improvements can be better used for commerce, production, etc. Basically, their cost versus benefit cannot be justified for most. 3 Quote Federation of Knox Enlightened of Chaos, Event Horizon QA Team and API Team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, I would argue that the main reason ships are not all that used during peace time is that they increase your score too much for how effective they are in war (the ground/air fight is the most important to win a war). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right. I always tend to forget about the effect on score for some reason smh.
