Default Re: Proposed Ships Limit Change (idea)

Just sitting around thinking up new ways to have se4 games and I thought of something that might spice up a few games. We already have a ship limit and Unit limit for the game in numbers (ie, max 100 ships, 1000 units, or whatever) but how about changing this to 'Max Tonnage Limit' for ships?? That way a player could have his tonnage limit maxxed out by just a few base ships, or a massive fleet of frigates??

So is this idea interesting at all, or am I just thinking too hard again??




That's a very interesting idea if the AI can adjust. I'd prefer some sort of "command points" system like MOO II had, personally. You could either have another "speciality" facility, the "command and control center" that generates command points, or you could have population generate a certain numbr of points points per million. It does require a certain amount of civilian population to provide crew and general support for a ship, after all. This way, you'd have to adjust your military strength according to the real size of your 'civilization' supporting it.
