Alliance Houses - Discussion

[ƒëmmë ƒatalë]

so in other words its a forced Empire set up. and will only serve to limit things further

I maintain that admin should throw the lone wolf alliances a bone in form of a bonus, like he did to lone wolf induviduals.

You can see how houses are shaping up into exclusive clubs allready with only a fraction of the 400+ alliances in the frey.
And the number will drop once the 5 days are up and kicking starts.

I dislike the fact that once the 5 days is up which will be soon that you can't attack someone else in another alliance that happens to be in the same house. It's a force situation that i don't like.

Today i've come across a situation where I feel like starting a vendetta, only to find out they are in the same house. So for me to be able to start this vendetta then i'd have to leave the house to do it?

Me thinks Lone Wolf is suddenly a good idea again!

My thoughts exactly, and echoed by many before this update came out. These houses are an Empire update giving extra bonuses to those who need them the least.

The houses have no direct effects on planets.

I wouldn't say thats strictly true... I believe, but may be wrong, that the atk and def house bonuses are added before planets are factored in. Which means that they'd slightly decrease the number of supers/mercs you need to get you full planet bonuses.


Edit: So its a direct effect on their effiency but not a direct effect on their stats.

Why do you think I specifically used the word "direct"?
The houses only affect the number of units trained to get the bonus, but it has no direct effect on the planets themselves.

Maybe learn to read... it does have a direct effect... just not to stats

That would be considered an indirect effect...

A planets cap* is determined by the persons natural strike, hence it has a direct effect on planets...

LMAO... the house bonus directly affects the number of units needed to get a specific power level and indirectly affects planets because of it. If the bonus was to increase a planet by x%, then that would be a direct effect.

You look at it your way and i'll look at it mine. Either way we've spammed the thread enough.

I think we both agree that the whether directly or indirectly the house bonuses don't make up for planets and MSs being completely marginalized.

I believe there's a bug with the house leadership.
Currently it started with 6 days worth and is adding to it for how long an alliance has been in the house, while I believe it should be subtracting. This basically makes it where an alliance can never be kicked as the longer they are in it the longer needs to be waited to kick so it never goes down.

1. Second in charge should be able to see the Leaders section but cant...
2. Can any of the other House Leaders confirm if the count down is bugged?

[lone dragon]

Sorry if I dont get this but so if your in alliance with the same attribute say Nemisis and DDE having (Chaos) they cant fight? or if there is another alliance of DDE with a different house they have to fight? It seems a bit confusing you could end up with weak alliance up against some of the best in the game.
