    We have killed hundreds of millions of soldiers, Pacificans and others. Maybe he's referring to the portion of those that had Judaism as their national religion?

    Of Course. Enjoy your competion with TOP.

  2. The nations listed below are STA members down at least one trade at the time of this post. For those of you looking for a trade feel free to send an offer. Some of these members are not overly active yet keep on top of thier nations as not to delete, however for those not so active nations it may take a few days for them to accept/reject your trade. Also I didn't check for team colours although we are a white team alliance and most are on white.

    Hyperbad wants a TE style resource change, but if they do that then nearly everyone would just change to the one or two best TCs. [/quote]
    Yes most nations would go for a 3 BR. So what. Make the game easier to play by allowing nations to A) choose thier resources or B) level the playing field between resources. The guy with fish/wheat is more likely to stick around than the guy with rubber/fur who cannot keep trades. How many nations have we lost because of poor resource combinations?

    A former alliance mate of mine had rubber/whine. Trades were easier to find when he started playing CN and got by with a fairly stable although crappy 7 BR set and had time to build up his nation with wonders and tech. Numbers started to decline trades became increasingly difficult to find and keep and eventually he left the game in frustration. After developing a dozen or so wonders and buying tech with his old nation he had absolutely no desire to reroll.

    Another alliance mate has coal/sugar, not terrible resources independantly but together clash. His last slot took him 41 days to fill. 41 days! Here is another player becoming increasingly frustrated and we could potentially lose (directly related to resources) after nearly 1000 days seniority.

  4. One fundamental easily fixed problem is resources. I would love to see a TE style change cross over to SE sooner than later. For those of you blessed with great resources you have no idea how incredibly frustrating it is looking for stable trades with mediocre resources. The imbalance between resources is something worth looking into as well. (imagine the guy who starts out with fur and rubber) I have coal and gems and I can not put together a half decent trade circle with those resources.

    Every one wants resources for the ideal trade set which means I am forced to send out offers to newer nations. They either delete or drop my trades after learning coal and gems kinda suck. I started playing shortly before the Karma war and this has been pretty much a way of life since the beginning of my nation. I am constantly having to replace dropped trades and it wears on you after awhile.


    I think people under estimate the effect this has on younger nations, newbs get fed up before getting hooked to the game. This also a major reason I believe why we have a hard time retaining players. Choosing resources is not the cure all solution to CN but it is a step in the right direction.

    To keep nations from constantly changing resources implement a cool down period similar to wonders and perhaps a cost index formula proportional to nation strenth, along the lines of moon and mars wonders.

    [color="#0000FF"]Well, what do we have here? Information about a Legion member with 14k infra. I have almost as much saved up as he does, and in a few weeks time I'll have more than he.

    What's more? The NSO has no nations big enough to spy on this fellow, and I could divulge the name of [i]this[/i] informer if I so please. But I won't. I'll say he's most definitely not NSO though.

    Setting aside the cash and spies, how do you get to 15k infra with no SDI or FAFB and yet have a WRC? I mean holy crap, who has a WRC and no SDI? I'm completely dumbfounded.

    *sigh*
    At first glance it tells me you're just another generic alliance with absolutely no uniqueness/originality whatsoever.
    [/quote]On the upside it's not another Star Wars themed alliance... :)
