bumping this up since Watup mentioned it in the voting page

I think the communications center would just slow the game down for newbies. It basically just says hey you have to have multiply large hws before you can actually play the game, have fun gathering resources for the next 3-6 months. That is assuming the game becomes more active and the average production planet is 11x-12x.

On the other side its really not much better now. If you want to be one of the big boys you need a lot of hws but at least nothing is forcing you to have a hw.

Bump.

Would like to see what people think about this now.

Have 10% bonus morale per star above you and 50% less morale for attacking someone with less stars than you- no morale for attacking 1 star

well, maybe it should be 125% less morale for attacking a 1 star player, if you're 5 star. 120 if you're 4, 110 if you're 3 and 0 if you're 2, and the normal amount of morale for 1 star vs 1 star players.

i think there should be a two star gap limit for deducting morale at that rate anyways, because i can join the game 3 days before someone else, and have 1 star more than them if i joined the 29th and they joined the first or second of the month. realistically making little difference in resources (other than the 1 production point added for round end to each planet, that might give a little bit of an advancement in comparrison).

so 5 attacking 4, normal, 5 attacking 3 -10% morale, 5 vs 2 -25% morale, 5 vs 1 40-50% loss of morale.
and the same scale reversed for 1 star players. but with additional morale for each instead of negative.
