Politician Archive

Hi folks,

I posted this on the Valcyn server board because their opinion is more relevant to my situation with our city being in that galaxy but I also would like a general opinion of all politicians.

The question is what is considerd Lame and what is good strategy?

What is part of the game and what is an exploit of bad code or simply not in the spirit of Star Wars?

Heres my post: ( we have a faction base in the city by the way )

Hi Folks,

Our Player City got attacked by about 5 Rebels before the server went down. I have to tell you it was a lot of fun and even though they were well an truly over powerd by our size force it was great that they kept making camp outside town and coming back for some more. It realy increased the FUN factor in the game to a whole new level for me anyway.

However this does lead to other situations because we ARE a Player City. We already have most of the civic structures apart from the shuttle port which we will be placing in 24 hours and I can seriously see raiding going to a whole new level in 24 hours.

It wont be 5 Rebels at the door it will be a PA of 50+ landing on the shuttle and cloning at the facility.

Yes I could ban them and stuff but Im not sure thats in the SPIRIT of the game whats your opinion?

I had also thought of placeing the shuttle port and sorrounding it with mines and scanners and turrets and anything else I could think of but thathurts not justthe citycrafter/merchant trade butmay also not be in the SPIRIT of the game.

Im not realy sure what to do but obviously if we get raided and go get some revenge only to find they do ban us from their facilities and so on then all options become straight forward.

Is there any chance that Rebel/Imperial city Mayors would like to come to some agreed method or set of rules in order to set your city as Part of the WAR or just a city that wants to be left alone and intends to leave everyone else alone. Hehe not that a city wanting to be left alone would be by some PA's but still.

Anyway as I said I enjoyed the little raid if you could call it a raid at all LOL and look forward to the mayhem that will begin when we all put down our shuttleports in the next 24-48 hours.

Good Luck to one and all may the best REBEL cities burn to the ground first. Hehe.

NOTE: If your currently neutral and reading this and not part of a city or even if your rebel or imperial and not part of a city then jump in. Join any city you like it doesnt matter the fun times are about to arrive and as a carebear I can tell you it was a heap of fun killing people for a change LOL. Find the nearest player city to where you are and help them defend their land from the hoards that are about to arrive at any time. You wont regret it.

Cheers to the Rebels may you come more oftenjust dont expect to be greated with roses)

Cyas again soon. Very, Very Soon.

i recommended to my mayor to place a few turrents as close to the suttle port as possible to deter overts from flying into our city to get our base. however, i do have some reservations about it to, because it does seem kinda cheap. A necessary evil, or cheap tactics..i dunno.

but think about this.. you spend 40k faction point to bug a large base (for human) and if you do havea shuttle port.. rebels have a way easier access to that base and cloning center.. use it with glee and well.. might eventually kill you faction base.

how about a /banovertfunction? As a neutral mayor you dont know how much I would love this feature! All overts would not be able to use any of the civic buildings
