Age 70 potential changes

[spyder882001]

I would like to see Avians also receive an increased population limit, if only by 10% or so.

That's bananas. 10% is not "only." 10% is significant, and would make Avian really awesome--too awesome, in fact, with its other advantages.

[Lestat]

I like the idea of Tact's getting 100% intel success.

[Agsa]

Seems to me we have been leaning more and more towards every race not having a con the past few ages.


Currently half of the races have a con....they used to ALL have a con.....and I for one would like to see this changed immediately. It added a strategical balance to warring imho.



Fearies, halfers, elves, and avians do not have cons anymore as they used to and as they should.

Halflings not having a con? Have you seen their def..

[myoshobi]

Humans join the HEAVY attacker group. I would say easily comparable to an orc and undead at the 200 opa mark

Feary joins the Hybrid attacker group(or defensive attacker). I could see people running 100opa/100dpa, Heavy attacker would be tough, and the HEAVIES pull away from fearies around the 140OPA mark
Feary boost to elite defense puts them EVEN further ahead as the favorite TM.

good changes on dwarf, still interesting
elf, still the best Mage and playable
avians are still avians and are the best at what they do
halfer... sucks, somethings gotta change maybe reduce the TPA boost(25-30%), and increase the def spec or elites to 8/7 and make them cost a bunch. It would prevent what many are worried about strengthening a Halfer(60TPAs all over the place) but make them more playable.

Science... maybe it's just me, but I miss the reduced gains on science. It just didn't excite me to max out this, then this, then... I guess I'll throw them here....
Reduced gains makes it interesting and a lot more exciting to see a new scientist and decide a Tiny boost to my favorite area, or a BIG boost to an area I have fallen behind in. You could still scale in the max for 20 scientists and get VERY little gains after the 20th, or whatever.

Any chance Halfling elites could be changed to 7/7 rather than 7/5? Halflings needs a little bit of defense or they just get chained into overpop early in war and suffer.

It's amazing that the changes for the last several ages have literally been taking a dump on TM's, and no one seemed to care. But now they're FINALLY getting a buff and everyone flips out. They're not getting OP. They're just finally equaling out to finally match attackers again. TM's didnt complain when Orcs got cheaper 12/2 leets that easily dominated their more expensive 6/8 leets. God forbid... they can possibly defend themselves now - and not have to pay an arm an a leg to accomplish it.

Personally, I'll be very interested to see Faery's finally getting a solid chance at being a hybrid this next age.

When is speak of cons i mean like an actual con or rather a weakness aka humans ability of casting spells succesfully and what not. A halfings defense is not a con its teh same as ALL of the attackers minus fearies/elves/dwarfs. Which is a base of 6!!! Its been that way for ages now. Why complain about it now?



But back to my point a con is a weakness, ALL races USED to have at least 1. Now we have half of them without a single con like it used to be.(dwarfs is usually increased food consumption, humans less spell success, undeads basic intel thievery, orcs with their decreased science effectiveness, etc etc.)



And on a side note a halfer can have more defense than an attacker if played properly. With its 50% tpa bootst means you only need half of what any other race would need. Along with the pop bonus which allows for even more wiggle room. Halfers are by far NOT WEAK. Used to have a similiar set up about 6-8 ages ago...in fact i would say its almost darned identical...and they fared alright back then as their cliche role of a rogue.

[ape]

Agreed. A negative effect for each race is a nice thing. Its one more thing to try to balance out with something positie tho, and with other races, and personalities... so is more headache.

"Magic sci will buff wizard production and wpa."

Does this mean Channeling no longer provides a rune bonus?

Good questionz.

[jmiedema]

Good questionz.

One that I asked twice so far in this thread, as well as in another thread that was closed by bishop :( I think he doesn't want to answer it for some reason.

[The Moon]

Ah jeez jmiedema ... i appreciate the info ... i have been out of the loop. Kudos.

[calamity]

Oh and!! Please, add in news who sent the dragon..

Good luck with that.

Right up there with seeing MS damage when I login, not clicking on province news to see I even had it while I was away.

[MyNameIsMatija]

The who has sent the dragon idea would seriously hinder mole play. Do we really want that?
