removing at's isnt the best way to slow dawn farming , maybe reducing income rate might slow down heavy farmers but not the at's

ok thats 20 mins of play.... so what about the other 23 hours?

I also like to be able to protect my alliance/officers/empire if an unexpected aggressive force hits.

Well, if you play this game 24 hours a day... perhaps its time to consider eating, and sleeping?

Don't play 24/7

Just want turns when I need them.

Need more turns. If anything, this'll just increase the amount of extortion that goes on and doesn't get reported...

this has got to change back as turns are becoming harder and harder to get even if you offer 700 bill + naq per 1k..

Whomever is able to get to the meet, bring this point up with Jason
"Attack Turns 1,000 600,000"
The number of turns available to buy, whilst 1/5 of what it used to be, does no decrease as people buy them. Which doesn't solve the problem of AT flooding the market. All it really does, is encourage people to BUY ats to be able to play this game.

And if the same or more people are going to buy turns to play anyway, it is only fair to put the AT's back to buy turns in the ingame market so that those who cant afford to spend real $$ can compete with those that do.
