i feel like there should be a bonus that is associated with every tech...so why not a military capture bonus to increase LGing?

you can capture more from your opponents for any attack (or if that's too strong, maybe just more ghost acres bonus?)

you want to take portion of enemy's military after you've grabbed him/her? why on earth?

I don't think he's advocating capturing your opponents military units, just increased attack gains. I think it's a good idea.

1 pt: +10% attack gains for 10 attacks / 30 turns
2 pts: +15% attack gains for 10 attacks / 30 turns
3: pts: +20% attack gains for 10 attacks / 30 turns

oh boy...

It *would* be fun to have, but yeah, the potential for abuse is just too big. Imagine a suicider letting loose on an alliance with max stored bonus points....

hmm that is true to a certain extent, which is why i suggested maybe a ghost acres bonus instead, which presumably doesn't hurt the target as much.

also there's really a limit seeing as how you can't have more than 16 bonus points at one time.

increasing returns by bonus could increase grabbing and lead to abusing and then receiving alliance would fs attacker or receiving country/countries would suicide on attacking alliance or just quit. to avoid abuse attacks would need to restricted max 2 per country/tag.
