this has probably been said, but why the hell cant we spy mothership ....

with the updated mothership's they could have like afew hundred mil more defence than the recons are coming up with ...

... if there is a reason then i would like to know

Erm....well, I dunno. Motherships are usually pretty tough to sneak into, what with them just orbiting above a planet and all. Or maybe it's just because Forum hasn't gotten into that yet. They are after all, still in beta.

if you hadn't noticed already motherships dont help with defense , they m,erely stop your mothership adding to your attack, anyway thats what ive heard i dont have a mothership, if forumn has updated it, please tell me so,

so anyway my point is reconing motherships purely to know whether they have a few hundred more mil def, is not the case, thus you dont need to recon them

but it would be good to know, if you attack and they have got a mothership, it would mean your is fighting theres and not helping your ground troops

you would also know if your is better

yeah but i think its good that recon cant tell you everything, i mean sometimes spys make mistakes,

We've never seen an SG team just gate or ring on to one, and then practically walk around like they belonged there... to be more realistic, we should just make it so that motherships show up on your stat's page... so everyone knows exactly how powerful it is.

this sums it up pretty well

i'll agree with way is already said, you shouldn't be able to see how many shields or guns they have, but what if you could see if you actual have 1 or not and perhaps you can see a sample of there overall power depending on your covert action and how many wepons and shields they have. but not how much is on each unless maybe your covert was uber good.

People would surely hear of the strength of anothers mothership from rumours from battles etc so why dont we have a vauge system of estimating mothership power.

For example:
250 mil or less : Weak
251 mill - 500 mill : Poor
501 mill - 750 mill : Unremarkable
751 mill - 1 bill : Strong
1 bill - 1.25 bill : Formidable
1.25 bill - 1.5 bill : Overwhelming
1.5 bill + : Unstoppable

So someone mothership might look like:
Franks mothership 'Son of Frank'
Attack : Poor
Defence : Formidable

So obviously frank has spend alot of naq on his motherships defence and not much on its attack.

Really? I was thinking they need to be made higher 3 billion for overwhelming and 6 billion unstoppable
