Cmon taxo, you know as well as I do that theyre not selling those MT/ATs in purg.

Actualy, purg is (in my eyes) BETTER than main, aside from the size limit.

You have no artifical production of military readiness (attack turns) there. Wolf359 summed the whole AT thing up a lot better than I can (well, better than I can feel arsed to do at least). Look up his old posts if curious.

Everyone is generating turns at the same rate. Same number of market turns for market purchases each week as well. So, the only people that are buying expensive turns are those that have lots of resources and can afford it.

If you make the turns cheaper AND increase the capacity, you'll just have more big players mopping up more of the (now) cheaper turns.

That said, I'm okay with increasing the maximum turn capacity and thresholds for automatic turn generation but let's not cloak this under the guise of making the game easier for the "little guy". Most suggestions I see about helping out the little guy rarely come from the small players. Go figure.

My two cents.

Indeed. But as weve seen many times, fourm cares naught for the little players, just the ones with whom he speakes privately.

And like you say, we all generate at an equal ammount, so is it any suprise that consumption is increasing ?

Afterall, what happens when the demand for a product with a finite production capacity exceeds the production ?

Price skyrockets. And supply disapers (of course, in this case, the supply is finite for a week, before it repleneshes itself)

That said, the max capacity for automatic generation SHOULD be a little higher, and should be MUCH higher in purgatory, as there is NO trading there and you must generate them naturaly.

Prehaps have auto-generation cut off at 6k in main, 8k-10k in purg ? (But youll automaticly drop down to whatever the limit in main is if you return, your excess ATs sold for naq @ market rates, the same as your AT supply when entering purgatory.)

Actualy, its not silly. Demand exceeds supply. Its actualy to be expected. And the average player would not benefit from any massive increase.
