Re: A new spell

cammar has a sucky race and those speed helped to balance it off. if you have a spell to increase speed then you might as well just get ride of cammar cuz noone is likely to choose it. plus it probably makes farming more quickly.

i love you all!

Re: A new spell

Reduce it to 15%, and make it a medium- difficultly spell, unlike the other self- spells.

Then I would completely approve smile

Re: A new spell

could be good but i personaly would not play camaar if camaar only has 80% advantage but if camaar was given the spell then WOW stand by bankers 220% speed would rock for any attacker smile

I still think camaar should have the Opp PI and maybe loose the spell find targets planet and SA to equal it up a bit

Re: A new spell

I actually favor the reverse of this..

basically call ita Gravity Trap well... doubles the time it takes for someone to attack a planet or system.. or makes it so all attacks take one turn.. no matter the range..

Re: A new spell

Matthang the spell for camaar would give 240% speed, because 20% of 200 is actually 40.

too powerful tongue  this spell would be for custom races only

Re: A new spell

err, so Render on your maths,

someone with 0% speed gets no bonus, as 0 x 20% is 0
and someone with 100% speed only gets 120%

hell yeah, I forgot the original purpose of this is to ADD 20% speed, no matter what your race speed is


so someone with 0% gets 20%
and someone with 100% gets 120%
and a caamar (theorically) would get 220%

right?

You can go custom attacker, pick 80% speed and this spell, so you save race points for other things (enhance penis, etc...)

Well, thats a good idea, make it the way you slow down a target by casting the spell on him, and you speed up ur empire when using it as self spell

Re: A new spell

mathematically correct an increase of 20% speed would result in the following speed bonuses:
20% for races with 0% speed bonus
140% for races with 100% speed bonus
260% for races with 200% speed bonus

why?
0% speed bonus = 1 distance unit per tick
an increase of 20% speed = 1.2 d.u.p.t.

100% speed bonus= 2 d. u. p. t.
an inc. of 20% = 2.4 d. u. p. t.

200% speed bonus=3 d. u. p. t.
an inc. of 20% = 3.6 d. u. p. t.

if adding this spell, then
camaar should have it, everything else would not make much sense....

Re: A new spell

lol 260% thats insane, camaar would be too powerful, I think this should be only for custom races, and maybe for Wardancers, but never for camaar, they'll be the fastest race anyway
