i think a good thing to put in would be a new bank that you could put money into and when u were attacked it automaticly repaired your dameged weapons with a limit on how much can be put in and how many times a day it can be put in. and you cound upgrade it so u could put more money into it

its a half good idea, it would be rather useful, i would need it right now cause im going 2 have to solidfy and fail to defend a 15 billion attack on me god knows how many times. its useful if you know your going 2 get massed badly like me by ~HUXLEY~ and you could survive a ltittle more, its a half good idea as it can be easly abused, but it would be useful to new players

this is the worst idea ever. have you ever massed someone. no offense but this wud make it very hard and a lot of the players would quit

I don't think the idea is that bad.... maybe a little tweak or two....
1- An auto-repair option that would cost you X Naq each turn to keep going. (like realm alert)
2- I think that maybe it could be a technology with x upgrade avaible which would make it possible to repair an amout of damage each turn...
But no automatic repair of all damage...
For the farm and mass it would only increase the difficulty a little bit.
Please don'T say that it would make the strongest player stonger... Anything that can be bought would make the strong stronger, they've work to be there so let them enjoy their fame and power ...

does this remind anyone of auto-banking, OR auto-spending from the bank? it does to me...

Not so much the former, but slightly the latter; but it's not like it would be going to UP, or the normal bank, or something else that could give a definite advantage. I could see this idea working if the "mass bank" had a smaller limit than normal bank, like, the ability to store enough naq to repair a certain amount of attacks; or maybe it waits for a certain amount of attacks to happen, say, 50, before kicking in. Also, I think it would have to cost 10% more than a manual repair.

maybe more than just 10%...
cause would be much more beneficial to the bigger players who mass and get massed with blinking an eye at the costs

Yeah that would make sense, I just picked 10 randomly.

yeah, then think about all the puny people that get massed. not only would all there stuff be massed to a pulp, but then u'd lose all the money in your bank that you may have wanted to use somewhere else (say, to go on ppt? lol). terrible from my perspective - i'd get fried. LOL

well, if you think about it this way...when you are hit, you lose guys, so, during a massing, your weapons get repaired right? you still lose the supers

yar, but with the puny army size that i have compared to some of you other psychos, if i know i'm a target i'm not going to waste all my money trying to defend myself when i know it's all gunna go bye-bye anyways. i'll spend the saved up money on either attack to retaliate or to get on ppt, then wait a week before even touching my defenses for the hate to die down. if i had 5 bil saved up in my bank and i got massed to a pulp, i dun want all that to just go away.
i guess if there was a setting, sure, but... overall... naaaaaah. :p

Which is why it would't be coming from your normal bank, but a special kind of "mass bank" instead.
