How many servers are you planning to have in total for now?
Canadian Provinces? You know, Gaming Related would be British Columbia, because of our best known product. Alberta would be where you store your cow porn. Quebec would be where you store your viruses!
Maybe past Prime Ministers?
If it was up to me, I'd be using different strand names of BC BUD, and Bars I like to go to.....
How about Hockey Teams? Screw the city title, just have the Team Names, 30 is quite a lot, and then you could start using the AHL ones...
5 man tag, it wouldn't be hard to run 5 commie indis all jetters and just do legit retals.
instead, ROGUE goes to top feeding or suiciding, and that's how they get killed.
I'm willing to put down money that 5 people that actually plan it out and don't suck, they would be able to survive as a tag.
maybe after 2-3 resets worth of just commie retal'ing, you could afford to have 1 or 2 people netgaining.
Just because I'm in LaF right now doesn't mean I don't know how it felt to be the small guys, I was in a 15 member tag during the time when RAGE had 500, and everyone else was above 100 easily....
I went 150 on bus res and sold them off before that market collapsed and was at 83 military as soon as food broke 40 and wasn't coming down until destock time
I wouldn't say how much defense I had
But I had 600k spies and felt safe enough with the defense.
During stocking phase, a Fascist Farmer, with the right amount of tech and land, will gain cash flow while stocking bushels.
That's where some of the problem is.
Every other strat has to buy bushels, but Fascist Farmers does not lose anything while stocking, they just cash their turns.
Fascist, as a whole, should have some PCI / Population Penalty. Probably population since no one wants to live under a Fascist.
That would lower the income and, yes, lower food consumption, but by forcing the Fascist into negative income during stocking phase, even if they cash their turns, it would effective force the Food Peak to be lower.
Which leads to a second change, by raising the food floor. This would lower the huge advantage of jumping early, and actually reward those people that goes and grab to 70k acres, and spend time to destock in a couple days at the end of the set.
Don't believe me? Run a Fascist Farmer yourself, grab to 35k acres, drop your military and only keep defense, you can cash for $2M a turn.
I had so much cash flow I had to actually BUY bushels.
We already have enough breakers that we don't actually have breakers, target goes up and people just go and then target dies before I freaking update a fresh op.
I mean, 'general' population that support the whole 5 man team thing would support that idea, and gets benefit out of it.
RD gets benefit cause then they get to kill people for 'valid' reasons.
And assholes who try to manipulate the server gets tag killed.
I would seriously want to see which 5 man tag can dominate the server just by themselves, the 5 of them. I can also see some amazing ANW finishes also.
Great ideas? Like selling the ENTIRE stockpile at 32? Forget to log in on the last day to destock? Recall your stockpile with no cash on hand and losing money?
Oh and still finish in top 50? Yah, that's LaF.
We learn from the mistakes of others!
But on a serious note, we do a lot of frontier net gaining discussions, even a minor change in the game can generate a huge conversation. But we don't abuse things like land trading and stuff, cause that's just wrong.
I would like to say LaF is an underdog, because of how big we are, it's very challenging to win that ANW title.
Heck, I would even go further and say that LaF's that underdog that has survived all the madness and suffering of the game and stayed on top. Everyone else loses members, and we remain strong with our membership base.
And now we're the top dog.
Join LaF and learn from the best on how to netgain.
I finished the time machine! look at the posting time, after reading your post, I decided to try, and completed it, and went through the time portal to post this!
