Let me start by outlining how I've viewed partax as a race over the years, and then discussing the changes that I feel should be made to keep the race as flexible and interesting to play as it used to be.
I've always felt that partax is a race, much like quantum, with which you should be able to play as any role - banker, attacker/resourcer or ss - with unusual querks but not as effectively as a pure attacker or banker. Over the course of ic, partaxes have been used most commonly in the following roles: low pcount wizz opper - pop banker - wizz resourcer - ss attacker using mostly opps. I'm sure there have been other uses but those are the most prominent that I can remember.
I kept magic bonus at 70% because partax has always been and always will be primarily a wizz opper, wotever role it is used in. On top of this, for those that like to play partax pop banker, this is the defining advantage over other banker races, since income, research and pop growth is lower than other bankers. The importance of being a wizzy opper for the race also led me to let it keep all wizzy opps.
The use of partaxes as resourcer/oppers has diminished greatly over the past few years primarily because custom resourcers have become more popular, largely due to the increased popularity of con bonus (cheaper wizz and infra jumps). For this reason I have changed research bonus to +20%, so that people might be less put off by slow research growth. (later thought - the decreasing partaxian popularity was not helped by the introduction of resources research, so a +20% research bonus should aid this as well).
I mentioned also that partax has always had and should always have the ability to play as an effective ss race. The changes that were made to soldiers/droids just under a year ago have rather cut the race off from such a role, as attacking with soldiers is damn near impossible. For this reason I added droids to the race, so that it can once more attack with some measure of effectiveness. I did however lower attack bonus to -30% because in my eyes the race has never been viewed as a main attacker, merely as a support attacker or an ss attacker. I compensated for this a little with 40% speed, because it has always struck me that speed is more important than attack bonus for ss attackers. On top of this, the 20% research bonus that i discussed earlier also allows the partax player to take the attacker route more effectively if he so desires, because he can fund military bonus more effectively.
Income bonus was lowered to 30% to balance out the possibility of cheaper economy research from the 20% research bonus, and I kept TOs so that the race could still be used as a pop(or cf) banker if a player wished to do so. I left pop growth at 0% because I feel that the recent increase of base pop growth from 4 to 5% should be enough to help repopularise pop bankers of all kinds.
I left PI/IP because they are important for every kind of player to have, but i removed spy on target because it has always seemed rather pointless to have as well as vision in my opinion.
With these changes, I feel that a partaxian would once more be able to play any of its old roles properly again, but still not as effectively as a pure banker, or a pure attacker or a pure resourcer, as it has always been for a partax. Certainly the race may seem better overall than before, but to me these seem like the changes that are needed because right now a partax is unable to keep up with the other races in any role right now. Specialising it to compete in any one area of play on the other hand would remove too much of what it means to play partax.
So there you go
