kill protection

given that everyone has everything built pre-ticks more or less due to various bonuses, can somebody give a good reason why we have protection at all now?

Re: kill protection

It seems you're bored...

but yeah, I'd like a straight away open round as well. There really is no need for protection with this simplified build-up phase.

Re: kill protection

For one it gives people some time to build ships. I'm inclined to agree, though.

Re: kill protection

With the current protection, people rushing for CR/BS can be ready in time.
Without protection, people going for FI/CO or rushing FR/DE would have a real advantage.

Reduce research cost of siege 2 and 3 to 3200 research points, or whatever makes it work.

Where is your god now?

Re: kill protection

if there wouldnt be protection you would need to allocate bonuss to siege weapons to defend against all ships types.. Xandathrii would spare bonuss on siege weapons.. but i dont think any Xan player would waste bonuss on siege weapons anyway.. only to get Haunts..

Re: kill protection

Protection is necessary. Older PA players take for granted the time required for new or returning players to ease themselves into it and so become a player that can be involved in all facets of the game.
