Turn Warehouse.

A new market should be created, to allow cheap turns to be purchased by all whom are not LG+ whatever.


I say this for Selfish reasons, because...I am out of turns.



Oh yeah, it'll allow new players and unascended to ascend and catch up :)




1 naq 1 turn!!!!!!

I've got the naq, and I want that turn.

umm NO, for one reason, totally unfair cuz im LG+1 and that would make ppl able to gram massive amounts of AT and broker them anywhere they want or try to sell them for a scarily massive gain. this would pissoff lots of ppl.

what might not be bad is an ALLIANCE AT WAREHOUSE though where the alliance CO and 2IC can purchase AT and store them in the warehouse and distribute them to the alliance as needed. like an alliance bank for AT but only the CO and 2IC can deposit of withdraw. naturaly there would be a max on it though, say about a 5k AT per member rate.

Supply and demand, If a bunch of players can buy lots of AT and sell for massive gain, they will do that and more will follow their example.

The more they do that, the greater the supply. And if a bunch of people do end up doing that I imagine with no limits on amount of AT that can be bought from the warehouse, it would only be a matter of time(days, if not hours) before supply greatly exceeds the demand which would equal a massive drop in AT prices for all players buying who are above LG +.




Now since this idea is put forth by the theme selfish reasons, and I myself am a farmer and below LG, I will support this motion for an AT Warehouse for my own selfish reasons. Whether its alliance or individual...because I run my own alliance for now...

All that selling would really help me catch up...I did say it was for a selfish reason :P

i understand supply V demand and it would lower the rate that it was sold but piano suggested 1:1 trade of naq to AT. as a seller those prices would make it near worthless to sell becuz your acct would not grow and this would pretty much neglect any type of turn generation in the game if it was sold for so low and unlimited. selling of the AT to the higher ascended beings would be more of a favor than for personal growth. this idea is just giving supplies away, an unascended acct can be just as powerful as an ascended acct, army size not ascended lvl is what determines power.

Keep in mind, this update isn't designed for the good of the game, its designed for the good of pianomutt20000

Of course, a 1 to 1 exchange is a little much....maybe 50bil naq/1k AT is a better ratio.

hehe, it is though...because i suggested it for me.


j/k

anyways, it would be nice to allow any army size below say 20mil to buy turns 1 to 1, but have them be non-transferable turns.

That seems more reasonable, I like that better. However I think it should still be more then 1:1.

Of course, the reason turn restrictions were placed...Is because people like High Empty would store over 300k turns and bankrupt the market.

I just think the current system discourages smaller players growth, and allows larger players to draw large amounts of turns their way. The only thing that the limit did, was make them find smaller players to hold turns for them.

lol with the current system smaller players can get their hands on just as many AT as bigger ones, they can chose to sell them or use them. they grow faster if they actually use them

All the updates seem to make it easier for the little guy, maybe when/if your account gets big again, ull have a different opinion, also cheap AT's to small armies....

Let me thinks about this, can anyone say multi accounts, hell even if they cant be transferred, they get them cheap, go mass raiding, main account raids them, person repeats process.

Bad idea.
