Rare, indestructable weapons for SGW. One of a kind

[Saturnine]

I mentioned this once before and it was not well recieved. Perhaps it was the way I said it? Or the way I thought it was implemented? Just reply here. Forget about the way its implemented for one second and think about how cool it would be to own a weapon that no one else had!! A powerful weapon with some pretty cool bonuses!! Imagine stealing one from another player, thanks to the latest pizazz added to the covert dept?
"????? Zatarg Detector stolen!! Details"

Imagine all of the coolest weapons taken directly from the series and implemented directly into this game! They would be the prizes of high covert levels. The thing of it is, no one would know you had them unless you had loose lips or someone just so happened apon you by coincidence while spying your defense!!

Before I make any whiners play that old "the weak would always be under the thumb of the strong" voilin. Know that it would be a covert issue. I am sitting fat below rank 1000 somewhere and have over 70 million covert rating!! I know its dumb to say these things, but try to find a player named saturnine. The point is this: It has nothing to do with rank or strong players. It has everything to do with my investments in LVL and spies. I worked hard for this, if rewarding me hurts your feelings, than work harder than I do my friend. There is always someone bigger than you (and someone bigger than me) why should I complain cuz they worked hard for what they have? I just work harder. They are inspiration!

Consider it folks, it could really spice up the game. Which is why I purpose we discuss how they can be added now. Here is the example thread below: Please do not reply to it, reply to this one. I think this is more assertive in what I wanted to originally say anyway.

covert really does need to be given back some teeth so i wouldnt mind seeing this considered

[Replisean]

that would be pretty cool

[Saturnine]

that would be pretty cool

Your right. Taking it that they would be indestructable, the weapons would just be passed around from spies to spies. Where they stop no one knows! Cuz if they were stolen from you. The only ID of the theif in your intell is ?????

But therte should definentely be a limit to how many you can have. Related to power of the weapon that is... Take 2 really tough one or few smaller ones. THey would have a assorted grab bag of effects as well.
Mostly modifiers to the aspects of the game.

Think magic cards. You get one of these babies, you have the upperhand. That is until its stolen from you,,,,

Maybe add a turn counter on it... Like... if it hasn't been stolen from you in 100 turns (roughly 2 1/2 days) then it is taken from you and just given to some random indevidual... who knows, it could be given to someone on page 1, or on 400...

Maybe they could start off distributed randomly as well? BC I'm having trouble thinking how each weapon would individually enter the battlefield.

If we had to compromise on this issue:
I'd like them to be a longer kept though perhaps a week? With the option to steal from players still intact.

When they are kept until theft however, They add more importance to a higher covert level. Covert really needs some revamping I believe..

I agree that Covert has to have a play in this, but what about people like SAZ that have an un-godly covert... If this happens, they might raise it even more, and because of unit production and all, they might be able to keep ahead of everyone else... SAZ or whoever has it will know ameadiatly, and by the time others try to find out, they would have been left in the dust and the weapon would never be exchanged. I agree with your compramize.

Perhaps below the inelltigenc logs there should be a new page: The galactic Bazaar! (for use of the best term, would you have perfered space wal-mart?) Where anonymous players could sell their weapons to anonymous players at their named price of untrained, naquadah, turns or a lil bit of all the above? The server would automatically deduct the asked price. Give you the players weapon.. (If its in naquadah, I think this should go directly to the given players bank) But the purchased weapons would naturally have to have their rewards:
maybe freedom from theift?
Or an extention to the time you can own them?

Naquadria Mines 4& 1/2 million naq
click here to purchase

Eye of ra 500 turns 1500 untrained
click here to purchase

Anubis class mothership 2 hataks, 6 million naquadah

That was totally uncalled for, just dreaming though.

I love this idea, the all should have varied effects thoguh the weapons, mabye improved attack, percentage bonus or straight, defence, increase in production in men covert increase all these sorta things. But it would be kool .

[Saturnine]

I'm guessing this would be a coders pain in the a** though. Take a lot of patience and work but wopuld be well worth the rewards to impliment.

Tell a friend about this wonderful thread. The more who respond the more likely we will see it in reality!

[Saturnine]

Sorry guys, just wanting to renew yet another old idea. I believe this to be one of my most thought out proposals for Rare weapons. I have stated a few times long before this! Well, lets blow the cobwebs off of it yet again and see if it tastes like a fine wine or a rotten apple.

Also I have added a poll to gage your response.

Sorry i dont like the idea of the weapon being stolen but i do like the idea of getting a new one every boundry. i think that at each boundry there should be a decision from 4 weapons that will either increase def, atk, incm, covt by about 2-5%.

[Lord Dougy]

ok, just saying from a big players point of view..... that any updates that increase any type of power that involves u having to buy something, the big people can instantly get it.

When the new technology came out it took only 5min to buy everything. I'm more supportive of covert being made more stronger in more weapons being destroyed....

coz hey i'm sure everyone tried out the new update in sabin someone but thats it now.... i havn't sab'd anyone since the first few days.

[_Predator_]

I only really use my covert to stop other people seeing me. Maybe i did try it out........and wow its brilliant i destroyed 40 invisi techs from sum 1.
