Untrained planets

I believe this suggestion has been thrown up a few times in some places but not fully been brought to light within its own topic.
Should untrained planets on ascended have some sort of action that applies to them? i.e should they have a partial income grant, as admin has shaken up ascended a bit, farmers are on the rise and DMU isnt as bountiful as it used to be, or should they be destroyable? like trained planets? Or something totally new?

Everything else is destroyable bar income already on ascended. Not to mention you dont just leave a hundred or so mill UU lying around on main, you train them into miners, or spies or AC units or whatever.

I think a partial income grant, say 1/2 the rate of a normal income planet, wouldnt cause too much disturbance in ascended.

Definitely NOT destroyable.

You may not remember the time when they were raidable. I do. It was not a good server to play and encouraged people NOT to play it.

Besides SOL, your 'let's assassinate untrained planets' update was coded on the beta server for ascended and frankly... it sucked.

+1

Definitely neither raidable nor destroyable. Maybe provide little income, but otherwise, it's fine as it is: if untrained provided income, that would make "initiate revolution" 100% useless, as the only small reason it should be used now is to cut income from people when you are at war by untraining trained planets.

Good idea, the small income. Don't know the figure for Labour Planets, but 1/20th of their income could work.

I honestly don’t know if it’s still there SOL, or if it was exactly what was suggested but the version that got coded and tested was not very good.

I think I lost over a billion planets to destroy um 37million planets on someone with 37billion planets untrained. I cannot remember the exact figures but it was something that no one would have used.

Making them give income is a maybe.

Thats really quite ridiculous then, sounds more like a coding error than anything. I cant log into the beta ascended 8-[
