Default Re: Leftover Pretender Points

*only has dom2 but also has this issue*

I'd like to spend some of those points on gems. there should be a way to use those leftovers like in Stars!(one of my old favorites).

As I see it it can't be any permanent change, just something to help out on the first few turns. I'd say x2-x3 gold(capped at 50 points), extra troops of the nations starter variety up to the cost in resources equal to leftover points(1 minimum, capped at 50), 1-1 of random gems, or maybe some basic magic items of the first tier of construction(their gem cost determines how many per points and they are randomly selected).

Cap it at 39 points. You can spend 40 points on another scale. That would help keep it as just a way to use leftover points.

How about each leftover point equals 1 turn until you have a cataclysmically bad luck event in your home province?

each left over point could be an extra 2 gold... small gold reward to prevent abusing the left over points.

From what Ive seen of what the devs keep tight control on or doesnt.. Id say this is the most likely thing we would get.
