I started in an age where you had 150k players and there are 15k left now ... and you know why ? It starts with lack of communication with the user base. Continue on this and in another 4 years you will have none left.
The problem if spy / sentry tools would not disappear immed:
- Spy tools = have to break them by sabbing / reconing yourself (by watching the battlefield even?)
- Sentry tools = they are defense against spies so there is no other choice than break immediately.
On the other hand, if you attack or get attacked and soldiers die, their weapons are not lost. Not an obvious one...
The 250 attacks rule has made the whole point of big accounts and hence running alliances useless. So, it depends, if you are in an alliance and vote for the 'pwnage' of others, keep in mind that yours will also get 'pwned'.
2 votes to this one. Either get a good book or consult someone next time you add something like alliance tag (hint). You guys don't have enough time to look into this or you just don't know. In either case, something needs to be done if you want to keep this game alive. Seen the ad revenue you might be generating, the effort will pay back very well.
Once upon a time we were told the next ages were all going to last 3 months. Some people have been counting on it and with the current attacking rules big accounts aren't fun to play. I also understand that changing the rules during an age might upset some players - so why not just stick to the idea of the 3 month age ?
All true.

I am out of votes but this sounds nice. I remember the PR wildfire recruiter in age 3 randomly came up with a CAPTCHA of its own to prevent cheating.

Lowering DA repair costs is trying to fix a problem by changing the outcome not by solving the origin.

Lowering the prices for everyone doesn't change a thing. Where you buy a BPM more a turn i'll buy 20 IS more. Now what ?
