and just an after thought. maybe to keep it balanced the commanding officer had to pay naq. like ahve it that every week it notifies you if you'd like to renew your subscription basically (but you should have the ability to have it auto do this, like with the "accept officer" button kinda), this would mean 2 things.
1. there isn't just a free bonus, so paying for it keeps it balanced. and the benefit to the CO is that if he has a good officer, his officer would grow faster thus giving the co more benefits
and 2, since it's a weekly (or whatever is decided) cost, it would be harder to abuse. like for example if you payed per turn a co could just pay for 1 turn and have his officer attack or whatever. you know.
i'd like to see some titles like scientist, archeologist, engineer, captain, general, assassin, cloner. things like that.
maybe even make some of them race specific!
like some of them maybe not be titles necessarily, but stuff like
asgard can install a shield instalation on a officer
tauri can install nuclear bunker.
yall get my drift.
and some of the titles would be much better than others BUT, cost WAY more than the others.
what do yall think?
even if you augment my idea, i would still like something similar to this implimented into the game.
titles like "supreme commander", etc. should do something...

bonuses for those titles would be cool, but keep them low
like 1% on defense for being Prodigy or something

i was thinking more like 3%, but the thing is your CO would have to pay for them.

why do WE have to pay for YOUR bonuses? keep them small bonuses and keep them free. I like the idea behind this suggestion but needs work.

I dont really like the idea I think the titles should just be for bragging rights

Re: titles like "supreme commander", etc. should do something...
that idea has my support 100% ( to bad my support is useless )
it is certainly going to add a new way to encourage or find the right officer in forum, as recruiters can simply say.
looking for scientist etc. lol
a good way to complicate things in a fun way so i vote yes.

i agree with what this guy says all the way 100%
but as an add, a trusted officer the title of fleet commander, he had the option to
take your fleets into battle before he attacked.
i think that would be very abused because if the officer is small compared to the commander he will attack relatively small people so it would basically be who has the better commander kinda thing
