So you cannot kill a country because it restarts with almost everything but you can BR someone 19,114 buildings in 13 BR's. If you assume 2 turns per attack that's 26 turns to ruin (lets assume 100 bpt) 191 turns worth of play. And over 3b dollars worth of building costs.

Let's over power suciders and under power war clans. Good job Qz/Pang. This is the stuff that ruins this game...

BR 14229 C/1210 B
BR 14899 C/1252 B
BR 15572 C/1293 B
BR 16313 C/1338 B
BR 16993 C/1378 B
BR 17751 C/1424 B
BR 18559 C/1472 B
BR 19352 C/1517 B
BR 20193 C/1566 B
BR 21026 C/1612 B
BR 21822 C/1654 B
BR 22300 C/1671 B
BR 23296 C/1727 B

I believe they receive the standard minimum restart bonus that we have always had.

Although if they PS their military away and then die, it doesn't come back :P

No, they come back with more than that. I don't know the exact formula, but the same minimum restart formula from previous sets is still in effect. I think they usually come back with like 4k acres or something at this point in the set.

I try to stay off AT too much Bullfluff, but Req's right, these new restart rules is great for the guys in SoL who die 5-6 times a set. Convient that Dragon dies in 10 seconds, KRs are nerfed. Now retstarts are super boosted.... 2 sets ago this game went down hill and now its just spiraling out of control.

Wonder if new suicider's will join and out way the number of players who quit from the crap?

These new restart rules would be great on PRIMARY server, where all the noobs will be playing.

I just hope they came out to tell us that we were basically the beta server for this change.

Else, even the most insane netters will be quitting soon.

think that if people are properly notified about the changes, then they can decide if they want to play that set. if they don't like the rule changes, then they can take a break.

realistically, if you cant wall within the first 50 hits, so the first few seconds, you might as well die.

in most cases it is much better to just lose 30% of your fluff, than to have that fluffty ass production for 2-3 days. this is of course if you are out of stock. and if you dont have anything PSed lol

This is about right. If you are out of stock, it is probably better to just die and restart.

Prior to these changes you would stonewall no matter what, as long as your could hold out for. If they had GSed all your troops away and you had no cash, you would start selling other military and spies on the private market to generate some funds to do something with. Maybe drop land to increase SPAL and techs. If you were to do that this reset, you will probably end up losing more military walling than you would just rolling over and letting them kill you. Now it is sometimes better to just get killed, absorb the 250 hits, and restart with 70%. Not a lot of incentive to fight to keep yourself alive.

I don't think you should ever aim to even address anything suciders say. That's just my opinion. That is unless you want an alliance server that is just full of suciders. It's your game you decide.

The changes are fluff, I just got a guy that did a RoR in a solo server with minutes left in the set, I started to unload missiles and after the 8th nuke the stupid humanitarians blocked me cuz he is too "small" uhm, he was only $600k less than me and more land... WTF??? I know its another server, but WTF!!!!!

Here is the other solution. If enough guys play solo suiciders next set, the amount of suiciding will bring it all to attention at how effective a suicider can be even when killed over and over and over.

SOMEONE GET A HOLD OF EUGENE, AND ASK HIM TO MAKE ALL OF LAF TO SUICIDE NEXT RESET.
