[QUOTE="The Forsaken One, post: 274399, member: 799"] Sigh, you are so missing the point mr Powergamer =[ But I'll won't go into this... futile. But it's lready the same now, if the lion, the Crane, the Phoenix and the Dragon team up and they attack we all lose, caught between the shadowlands and the rest of them. I'll possibly be having around 60 PL of free armies and 90 more which I can access so what is the difference? I can say now that I pick up 150 PL and throw it at the Crane for example. So what is the difference? The other way is clearer and less book keeping. The 1 IR rating per player is a must in my opinion. But as too what we play, I picked Mantis becaue it was what was left. I play with what I got not with what I'd might play to be most effective. With what you start shouldn't matter too much. Your results should come from how good you are as a player so you can make what ever you want with Scorpion, and friends are a MUST in this game. Or else yes 3 people will team up and piss you over without breaking a sweat. That's how it is working already. And when you attack with full PL like I said will result in alot of possibilities for others and considerations for yourself. And you can attack in alot of ways. Last IR I fended off 300 PL in the first turn with my own 80 PL and I hardly had casualties. Why? Because I'm a good strategist and I got my plans ready and not because I had more PL but because I fought them how I wanted. This game isn't about PL and it can never be too simple because it will get complicated anyhow, anyway. So get used to it I'd say. Single IR scores and maybe PL scores like last IR will seem like nothing but if you followed that IR you should know how that went and it didn't even come close to what you are telling how it'll go. Actions have reactions, and it's about how you handle them. And the game mostly isn't fought on the battle field with PL vs PL (just at the start if there even will be fighting) but with what happens around that and about how creative people are with the possibilities they have and how they use their benefits and specialities. I'm quite busy as Cream knows all too well :D And I can assure you that I can take care of myself against the most massive of armies. And I'll hardly need my conventional army for it. [/QUOTE]
