current:
Bank Capacity: 75% of Natural Income x 48 x 2 (ie 1.5 days of natural income)
our idea:
75% of Natural Income x 48 x 2 (ie 1.5 days of natural income) + 5,000,000,000 basic bank size
this will work so that newbies are capable of storing up at least a little naq in their banks...
EDIT: added poll...
1 ppt increases my bank size by 6-7bill
what use would this be?
newbies can do what I did and buy weapons... or PPT more

the easiest way to increase bank(without spending RL money) is to buy both such ppt's each week, and to use third MT to get lifers, and to train as many miners as possible as well...
but it might be an interesting tech idea you suggest... but then, the entire tech page needs to be updated... it is almost useless after one point...

This means to be able to buy upgrades for bank space. And each upgrade to add a percent (let's say 10%) of bank size?
that already exists... it is called market supporter status... or market ppt... that increases bank by 10%...
I don't say about that upgrade. I want something else. An upgrade direct.
market supporter status... or market ppt are limited. 2 per week. And 10% of base size it's (for many of us) not enough. Should be an special upgrade, in Technology Center (
http://www.stargatewars.com/tech.php). There are not so many upgrade options. That section should be improved. And this (bank size) can be a suggestion for this.
I think he knows that, but he means without spending £/$
am i right or am i right? :d
PPT doesn't cost £/$ on main. Only market turns.
The effect of an PPT on bank size is almost nothing. U need a lot of ppt to see some real increment on bank size.

True. Tech page is obsolete. Some new must be added there

would the older players also have their banks increased by the amount decided? I hope so!!! LOL The 20 bil (price of a PPT) is the best bet and i know i would like that much more room.
Maybe that was asked, but i am too tired to read it all atm.

of course all would get it... much harder to code otherwise, and very unfair...

I think we need another way to increase the bank space. Other than PPT!

we do have another way...MINERS. I think that is a good way to increase it.

I dont like the idea. Maybe 1B is of fro the beginners, but as soon they start to grow up, they should realize, that miners are worth! Not just pick a commander with good income. They are crying later for using the co's bank... and they dont want to make miners because they cant defend the income.
Voted for the smallest option.

i dont like the ideea to coz it will be a greater benefit for the big players more then for the beginers coz when you got 1mil ligers it is nice to see your bank going more up and not worying to train other miners for it ...it will kill the gameplay .....ofcourse this is only my ideea ........

this would make no difference too bigger banks.
99% of the big banks never get filled anyway so 1-100bil would make no difrence

Current Exchange rates:
4,020,000,000 Naquadah for 336 Turns for 11,800 MineSlave/Lifers
I vote for 5 times increase of current exchange rate for naq.Atm around 20bil. in other words ..every beginner will be able to save naq for his full MT.

I fill mine once every 2-3 months
But yeah, 1 bil or 100 bil makes little to no difference for a top account. Probably wouldn't even notice any increase under 50 bil
This idea is almost entirely for new players, and I think it is great. Just need to remember to mention it at the next admin meeting.
