I no it would never happen but if you were to make mpsd buy able with ingame resources, you could base the price off the players assets eg army size so the price for big players is proportional to the small players, if this were to happen i would hope that it is extremely expensive as with just the current mpsd and ppt you can defend your planets pretty effectively, i dunno what sort of ratio you would have but hopefully one that makes it so expensive that you have to choose between funding war or defending your planets, i wouldn't want people to be able to afford both

I don't really understand the reasoning for making variable prices for the exact same service or good. As far as making it a choice between war and protection, as long as its the same big or small I really don't care, only difference is big players can afford it, small ones can't so they will be more likely to go for protection and shy away from war.

My reasoning behind is it is to try to make the game fair so super powers like yourself cant hide their planets 24/7 and then go to war with out any risk of loosing in most peoples their most valuable assets

Hardly... at the end of this war only those who can afford the $100 a week USS's will still have their planets... everyone else will have had them removed.

You dont need to 'afford' the $50 USS. If your planets are big enough then you can sell the resources gained for $$ and that will then cover the cost.

Doesnt have to be your planets, can just be the account in general.

But, it also keeps the server running so,,,,,,,,,

i still go to school and have a part time job im not wasting my monies on a game lol i can waste it on other things like saving for a car lol in my honest opinion i think mpsd should be removed from the game full stop as if people don't defend their planets then they don't deserve their planets, if you do it right you can sit on ppt for 8 days straight its not like there is no way to hide your planets already

Your money, your choice, just remeber if no one was spending any, the game would not be here.

And personally I agree, Merlin and planets both should be removed, worst update to hit the game since I started playing.

my main reasoning behind this was to get more people involved in war.
you already have people spending money on NAQ / UU / TURNS within the game, But most alliances refuse to go to war for fear that they will loose their planets.
This update has only made that an even bigger possibility.
I was suggesting this, because i find this game can get very very boring.

If smaller alliances, and accounts in general, had some way of being able to protect there planets while the war was on,
" without having to spend $50 per week"
as, this is a game, not a revenue maker for 99% of the community.

then you would find that there would be a lot more wars going on.

Yes i understand that they can still use there market turns to get 9 days per week,
but if these guys have 10 planets, ???? thats 1 day they are protected for the week....
We all know, that it is easy to wipe out these smaller alliances. Mass them, take a couple planets, and they surrender in 2 minutes,
This way they cant rebuild,
I would like to see them rebuild a defence, it would give me something to mass.

Its just too exploitable to be viable mate.

Could always just add an extra alliance war option,

"Protected Planets Treaty" - (name is suggesting something else but meh )

A war where Planet taking between all members involved is forbidden, Nox/Crit dont wont niether does PPT, members just go at it. (With the exception no planets are damaged in the war, as their covered by the protected planets treaty.) A less costly war perhaps for people who like not too loose planets, Although it could be possibly abused to keep hold of your planets by permentally being in one of these wars. Anyway food for thought.

make it so that only the people in the war are covered by the planet treaty.

Also, make it so planets are attackable, but only so the bonus they offer is nulled, not the planet taken.
