Re: ~~~ Starburst Round 2 ~~~
having resect for the game and not farming the smallest family until all the family's deletes and quits IC that is why IC is loosing so many players maybe they should have a gal where you have a limit on your nw so most family's stay close in nw
True I just ramdomed into this family and I don't know the hole story
But there is no excuse for this
The player base in IC is small already, another galaxy would just make it even smaller. I think SN and SB galaxy is good already, even adding Orion seemed like a stretch (but its hardcore so people get eliminated fast).
Farming smaller families was always part of the game, but the current rules made it even more prevalent. Back in the old days, big families would NAP each other, but NAPs could be broken any time. Big families would always be at the state of war and always ready to defend. Now, with PNAPs, it's like attackers do not even have to defend their borders with the PNAP families.
Also, smaller families used to be able to form military alliances with each other to deter bigger families from raiding them. 2 smaller families has a much better chance vs a big family. In fact, the Check Relations op has become useless as every NAP and declaration of war is announced.
