How is #2803 doing that? Just curious. This some kind of bug or exploit?

Other rule changes can include:

All Players start with 500 Acres; No exploring.
Only 1 Ally Slot per alliance type.
Foreign Aid Cooldown is 5 hours.
Oil can not be sold on Public Market
No Missiles
Random Plague outbreaks
Buildings per turn maxes out at 30.

Just throwing ideas into the hat.

Turn Team into Mini-FFA. 5 countries per player Max! :P

The final boss is your mom.

If anything, Make "X Earthquakes" a bonus to spend bonus points on so you can have buildings destroyed without having to spend the money to do it.

Yeah, Express was the toughest thing to consider in general when it came to these ideas. I was thinking, for example, in Alliance you'd increase Bonus Acres by 5 per day per 8 BP, but with Express, make it, 30 or 50 per 6 BP.

I was under the impression that Luck factored into Missile Production as well.

I didn't know Spy DR was affected by luck either ^.^

That's a very good point about the market commissions. I considered this and figured the reduction in commission would be minuscule. For example, Alliance and primary get 60 days in a reset. So every day's allotment of bonuses would be 0.03% or 0.04%, so the maximum possible commission reduction would be 1.8% or 2.4%. We definitely wouldn't want to cap it at 0% to compete with Democracy. But it would most definitely give a small edge to Commie strategies, allowing them to mitigate the 10% commissions.

The additional ally slot would need to be approached with some care, definitely, considering your feedback on that. That's why I was thinking to limit it to 1 per reset.

I'm happy to see that the ideas are well-received by someone on development. ^.^ it's encouraging.

Hi all.

I had a few ideas for permanent bonuses. Just ideas to toss around. Subtle things. Looking for your thoughts.

1. Bonus Acre Increase: Each day, the number of bonus acres you get increases by an amount appropriate for the game type.

2. Missile Capacity: Increase the cap for missiles beyond 1 per 200 Acres.

3. Spy DR: Further increase your resiliency to repeated harmful spy ops.

4. Food Consumption: Decrease the amount of food consumed by your population and military per turn.

5. Market Commissions: Decrease the amount the market takes for commission for your sold goods.

6. Additional Ally Slot: (16 points; 1 per reset) Get one additional ally slot in the category of your choice. (EDIT: One additional Trade Pact Ally only(

7. Construction Speed: Construct 1 additional building per turn without the necessary Construction Sites.

What do you all think?

I think he tried to stoke a war between me and #10 before pulling that stunt.

Grampy Rabbit is on crack.

That is all.

5/5 with Haste and Trample for 2RG!

About 30 people told me they've bought or preordered by novel.

My sales report has determined that was a lie.

BURNUS PANTS!

Some inconsiderate troglodyte [42 (#29)] 6-tapped me. I was like "F This" and self-deleted. Too much going on irl to bother caring about trying to build back up after that.

And he couldn't even hit top 10...

Yeah. Top 25% of the entire leaderboard, regardless of protection.

Top 50% for Game A. So I need to keep my butt up above 14th place lol

Then how did you read, "BUY MY BOOK"?

HOW ARE YOU PLAYING THIS GAME!?!?

LMAO

BUY MY BOOK! <.<

PAST BURNUS!!!

Take good care of yourself. Big Condolences!

NOOOOO!!! Not Action Hank!

His beard was not enough to defend him! Dexter wasn't there to back him up!

Poor form! 1/10! Maximum Disappointment!

That was not very Cash Money of him...

Whym

Or make it so where you can't enter vacation mode if your country is under attack.

Just another angle.

Why not make the increase in Bonus Acres a bonus point boost, so people can control how many more bonus Acres they get, if any?

Holy cow! Condolances to the family! :(

Bots never carry oil either.

+1 on "Join GDI". I always save 2 days worth of Bonus Points for the free GDI, and buy it before coming out of protection.

Pun Intended? :D

I PLAYED Earth 2025 back in Junior high.

I am now 37

But I wasn't active in the community, nor did I play on any clan servers. I was too intimidated by them back then. :D

of

A couple of months can feel like forever. I was huddled near the dying embers of a lonely campfire, poking the coals with hope for a last bit of flame. I thought about home. In the cool, pre-dawn darkness, I wondered if the comfort of a warm bed was worth the welts and bruises it would come with.

And then, there were many many butts!

I done almost forgetted me bonus!

GEPPEWPTAWWWNNNNN!!

BLORT!

I died-id.

24th place. Not horribly horrible. :D

This war is pretty kickin'!

Got a musical one:

In the song "Sweet Home Alabama", near the end, you can hear the lead singer say, "MY DONUTS, GODDAMN!"

https://youtu.be/ye5BuYf8q4o

You'll hear it at 4:09

As the story goes: The band ordered donuts. As they arrived at the studio, the band was just wrapping up their take of the song. One of the studio staff helped himself to one of the donuts that the lead singer had specifically ordered. To which he exclaimed, "My donuts, goddamn!"

There, that is something you now know.

Falsvals

I was thinking of a Spy DR OP. The way I would envision a "Detect DR" op:

Name: "Monitor Intelligence Activity"

This op allows you to see how active the target country's spy network is working within the country. If the country has been the target of many harmful SpyOps, the spy network will be actively searching within the country to flush out any and all enemy spies. This, in essence, allows you to determine if it is safe for your spies to infiltrate a country.

The results for the DR would not be numerical, but will be displayed in statements of increasing severity.

"The target's spy network is at rest." (0-1 DR)

"The target's spy network is starting to mobilize." (2-7 DR)

And so on.

Same here. Really F'in me up here.

Ain't that the truth. I managed 3 successful walls last reset and was all like "WHO'S YOUR DADDY NOW BIOTCHESSSS??!!" each time I did it. :D
