There are plans to in the works to change alliances.

The biggest change I'm working on is allowing players to choose what races they allow in their alliances.

(and yes the Tok'ra and the Goa'uld will be a bundle, allow one, and you'll be forced to take the other).

We will be limiting the number of races you can allow into your alliance to 3.

Thats a bad idea... it doesn't fit as well..

Like I said, the Goa'uld and the Replicators have only worked once in the space of tens of thousands of years with the tauri. On top of that the Asgard as so superior they have never had a need to work WITH the Goa'uld against any common foe.

There should be circumstance changes... like a Goa'uld Alliance can have Tauri and Tok'ra only....

Asgard can only have Tauri.

Tauri can have Asgard, Goa'uld and Tok'ra (However, Goa'uld and Tok'ra addition counts as all available slots).

Replicators really should be able to have, just replicators...

I still maintain it WILL ruin the role playing if you make it that flexible. When we're all still having race wars in three years time.... everyone will thank Semper's thinking then.

If you let them be as flexible as you're implying.. then we're going to have another main situation on our hands. Races will become meaningless...

That was for the new alliance system that was not implemented. The new system would allow alliance leaders to set which races they wanted in their alliance.

So as Asgard you could pick Tauri, and Tok'ra. But if you pick Goa'uld, Tok'ra comes bundled with Goa'uld.

Just to make it as confusing as possible...

So does that mean that a Tauri can accept Tok'ra but not Goa`uld? Kinna dumb since everyone will know they are tokra? kinna defeats the pourpose of the hidden race?

anyway, I'll wait till its realeased as I'm still a bit confused, if Tok`ra and Goa`uld are bundled, it still seems its 3 out of 4 races if 2 races are counted as one.

Ok, I've looked and only found a couple of small lines referencing Alliance Attack logs in Origins. I think there needs to be logs for the Alliance incoming and outgoing attacks just like there is in Main. I would like to be able to log in and see who is farming my Alliance so I can retaliate. Any naysayers?

I like Lore's idea about having to PAY for the Attack log out of Alliance funds. Make's it more realistic.
