All of that adds way too much micromanagement and makes the game less fun to play.

Finite resources is not necessarily _harder_, as much as it is more of a pain.

Default Re: Finite resources or not?

perhaps that is the true debate. I enjoy micromanagement and more of it is not a problem with me. I had to deal with a multitude of complex things with my career also. I loved what I did and was good at it. The nice thing about a game, is if i choose to let some m/m slide for a while, it don't have repercussions on others.

The only true reality with a game. Is it comes on a pLastic disk, and becomes unusable if folded. I have to laugh when i read, or post myself, about things that are or are not realistic. Truth of the matter, is we have no idea what space travel will require or cost, nor do we have the technology to do it right. Hell, we havn't even "colonized" our own moon, let alone other planets, or intersystem travel.
And please hold the "area 51 is really a moonbase" theories. (altho that might make a good thread. lol)
