Default Re: Weapons that Capture Planets

Dogscoff: Actually, that sounds like an excellent fix to the PPP. You just posted it in the wrong thread is all!

To extenc this idea, you could break the new PPP into several levels (I'll leave the actual numbers up to you modders):

-level 1 converts some of the planet's population
-Level 2 converts more of the planet's population
-level 3 converts half of the population
-level 4 converts more than half of the population.
-level 5 converts about 3/4 of the population.

I really don't think that you could really convert more than about 75% to 80% of any given population. There are going to be the fring nuts that think that their leader is God Reborn and can do no wrong; they won't even consider any other alternative.

Edit: Actually, maybe that should be closer to 10 or 15% unconvertable.... And you'd want the percentage gains to decrease considerably with each successive level of PPP. Something like:
level 1: 15%
Level 2: 40%
Level 3: 60%
Level 4: 75%
Level 5: 85%

Where:
You gain 25% from level 1 to 2
You gain 20% from level 2 to 3
You gain 15% from level 3 to 4
you gain 10% from level 4 to 5

Heh. So much for leaving the numbers up to you modders...
