Reserve

Death · Post by **Death** » Wed May 21, 2008 2:47 am

I'm going to go with yes. My reason for this being that it was created to help empires recover from damage dealt, but it is used for hiding net and dodging upkeep. That combined with the fact that the majority of players here leave holes and/or weakspots eliminates any real need to an aid in recovery, much less a place to hide up to 25% of your military.

Hiding networth and dodging upkeep are two very cheap tactics imo, they only serve to make this game easier by taking skill out of the game, and putting training wheels on an empire.

What the adjustment will be will be discussed if and when this poll is over.

Troops in the reserve still require upkeep, and the NW hidden is not that much, all things considered.

25% of your total net. One run monostacking each unit stuffing it in the Reserve can be quite a bit. Plus the upkeep is only like 1/4th, barely anything. I stuffed it and saw basically no difference.

Therefore, leave it as it is.

I don't foresee a change needed either. Other than the reserve being pulled when you hit 500 land.

Leave it the way it is. Death you are from valhall are you not? There you can hide alot of your troops with 0 upkeep. Keep the reserve the way it is, i do like freenhults idea though.

I dont use it, I agree with the training wheels analogy.

Wrong. I have a pretty impressive net hidden on my reserves usually. More than 25%.

uhm.. No you can't. Unless you have no idea what you're doing, and you end up losing net then. This has nothing to do with Valhall though, I don't see why people compare the two sites.

Shadow, you should kind of know it won't be changed, I just made this to humor Rudder.

I know. Kind of annoying really. Meh, I will continue to use my overpowered reserve to hog land.

Yes, its so broken.

Not broken. It's working as it was intended. It's just overpowered.

You can store on the public market....

No you can't, there is a 90% pull penalty

He might mean at Valhall. And in that case, you still lose net in the long run. Take it from the holder of the solo and clanned Indy networth records, storing doesn't pay.
