Topic: AoTK II General Concepts . . .

1) -I'd also like to make sure- 90% seems a little high to be promoting the "I don't care if I lose a ship"
     3 minute turns may work to balance it, but the DN/BCs are kinda pricey... I'm good either way, but I don't
     really like the idea of the heavy meatl only for those who put in alot of time.

2) Could we move from 7-> 9pts a side? That (imho) would give each side the ability to put 2 "nutters" in
    cap ships and leave 1-2 for casual players to spread the BCH's out.

3) (just to be 100% sure) -No BB's right?

4) Aren't the coalition going to suffer from a 2263 start? Aren't we all? Are CC's going to be cheap?

5) Are we going to be allowed to have ourshiplists pruned? (Lyran Escorts don't really serve any useful purpose)

DH,

You're looking at a 90% loss (a replacement valued at 10%) if you lose your ship?  Or am I misreading something in the thread?

I think a 90% ship loss is a bit much...the casual players (in other words, everyone but the nutters) will probably become quite discouraged after a few ship losses...

Yeah, you're right.   make it 50%

1.   Will consider goin to like 50%

2.   No, get off your BCH crutch    The nutters can share and remember if you get killed, you're out for 24 hours.

3.   Correct, no BBs

4.  I like suffering though a 2263 start, decent ships start showing up arounf 2265 for all races so I suggest drinking heavily for the first few days.   A few days of early era will put hair on your balls.

5.   Yes, pruning to SOME extent will be allowed.

1.  50% is okay.  Prefer 75%, but 50% is good.  No problems.

2-5.  Hexx stuff...
