Return of the raids...

I think we should see the raid function come back. This will only work if we have certain precautions on it, such as inactive account deletion, and preventing high ranked players farming the low ranked ones. Some suggestions for that are to make it so that if you have alot of units and you attack some with a little, you dont get very many, also make it so that if you are much higher ranked than the enemy you get very few units, and also making the attacker not get many units if they focus only on attack (to get their rank down and try to get more units).
I know I will find some opposition in this, and i expect to be called an idiot, among others lol, just like last time...
Just give it a chance this time ok?

Maybe inactive accounts could vanish, rather than being deleted. Then, when the player logs in, it reappears on the server.
Raiding should replace the Goa'uld tech, in my opinion.

I don't think it should just be Goa'uld, it would be a very important part of the game, but that is a really good idea about the vanishing thing. Maybe they lose 3/4 income and UP do to disorder at the loss of their leader while they are vanished though...
I say 1 month of absence should determine if an account is vanished or not.

Well it's very similar to the Goa'uld tech, and I think it would cut back on the Asgard tactical edge.

yes, but wut you have to understand it it will be a huge advantage, plus any race has the technology to use slaves. none of the others revive the dead by using symbiotes...

Simbiotes do not revive, they strengthen and possess, so giving the Goa'uld the ability to "raid" and let simbiotes possess UU makes perfect sense.
Maybe you should use Untrained Mercs though and they die, and a percentage of them turn into UU.

Okay, if I have to be perfect, they revive the person with the sarcophagus and then use a symbiote to control them.

You will be called an idiot, though not by me.
I remember the Time-of-Raid. I don't want to go back there!

If the raid is back, the goa`uld just become worst off than they all ready are. I mean think about it.

The Goa'uld become worse off? How? RAID was a Goa'uld thing last time - it was removed because it was considered an unfair advantage.
Personally, I never want to see this feature re-implemented.

The raid was for all players. This was BEFORE the Unique things.
