Era 12 (and 13)- GAMBLER'S PARADISE

as the title suggests, it is a 'normal' wave, but with the ability to wager your winnings in games, lotteries, etc... (ok no etc ..just games and lotteries).

should add a nice random element for those with a high risk tolerance :)

comments welcome.

Re: Era 12 - GAMBLER'S PARADISE

This does sound good. I wouldn't like to see any more permanent random elements in the game, I like to see it come down mostly to skill but one wave of gambling sounds fun.
Indu and proud of it!!

I talk in this color when corporations pay their fair share of taxes and don't evade US taxes by stashing profits overseas.

I talk in this color when the wealthiest top 1/10th of 1% don't own 50% of the nation's wealth.

I talk in this color when the wealthy, influential elites of this country don't have unbalanced influence over the economy, media, and government - allowing to regularly further their own interests.

I talk in this color when the US joins every other industrialized nation on Earth and guarantees healthcare for all people.

I talk in this color when 98% of all new income doesn't go into the hands of the wealthiest top 1%.

I creep though shadows
I rise up at night
I live just inside you
And give you a terrible fright
I walk through the darkness
I lurk under your bed
I live in your wardrobe
I creep up in the shed.
I tiptoe through the corridor
I follow you anywhere
I rip your braveness apart
And never ever care
I am fear so don't come near..

Re: Era 12 - GAMBLER'S PARADISE

to be honest i want to hear about what the next wave has by way of normal rules.

Do we have normal techs, Motherships, super soldiers, unlimited mercs, the 4 1 point techs, a market where we can actually buy some damn AT's, what about inter-player trading?
