20 of 27 (74%) almost without money, rest have problems with resources. |
Now there are two sites each for nickle and steel, will that be good if there are more sites for magic powder? |
It's tHe eNd oF TeH WoRLd!! ThE sKY Is fALLiNg!!!
Seriously? :)
I wonder where Magic powder is gone, but as usual, since there's a single manufacturer in the whole of empire, it's a weak point in the supply chain. It would be better if Magic Powder production was split in two different location.
I know by experience (it's not the first crisis in LoWM economy) that this situation will soon end one way or another. Don't worry. Meanwhile, there's nothing shameful enrolling in a mine...
It'll be interesting then to see these people run around the map trying to get rid of their 30+ magic powder resources!! |
Economy just needs a few adjustments and it will work quite fine:
- Needs badly a third mercury facility or increase mercury workspots in GC since 2 of the machining facilities and a lot of the production ones need mercury to work.
- A second magic factory or increase in magic factory spots also to make it even with steel/nickel
- Some very high demand artifacts should get a second facility to produce them. Some months ago we had problems with Amulet of Luck, they added second facility in East Bay and nowadays it's quite easy to get. I would bet that same thing will be done with Defender Shield sooner or later and Ring of Inspiration. |
the system is too unbalaced
mercury is the base of everything
they shoold change ertifacts elements and use more gems, ore, critsal and wood |
move the lab to yellow lake and move sulfur min to other places will do the trick |
for Galador:i still don't agree with that :) |
move Lab to Yellow Lake,... |
But if they move the sulphur mine, yellow lake won't be yellow anymore :S |
But if they move the sulphur mine, yellow lake won't be yellow anymore :S
LOL,
just move lab from BG to YL then :p. |
Just repopulate the shops- very little in there under 7th level requires mercury, and none requires magic poweder.
I was going to say something needs to be done, but that's not quite right. Something WILL be done. The question is, is it going to be something the players suggest, or is it going to be something like the AP requirements where it gets imposed from above? Maybe if we players get our solutions out here now, the admins will use one of them to solve this. Because otherwise, they'll think of something on their own, and that hasn't been real popular. :) |
3rd lab for mercury, 2nd Magic powder factory, 2nd facility to high demand artifacts.
Until this happens flood with res all lvl 1 mines AND magic powder factory ;) |
if anything needs to be flooded it's only machining. In mines they can just increase the number of vacancies but i don't think that all the posts are filled even now. |
How about also building a gold mine (or three) somewhere? ^^ |
what you buy gold with gold? LMAO |
xD maybe the owner gets a certain amount of gold from it per week :) |
Maybe another players could have their business at great capital and other locations .. (real estates I mean) .. |
i wouldn't call it an empire crisis. those two new sectors will serve exactly for this purpose - a home for new mines and factories. wait a while and things will be balanced. |
I agree, after all the when we had completed the lighthouse we did get the news that it would take a few weeks before we saw new developments. It has been chaotic over christmas and new year, but even game designers are entitled to holidays...I suppose :D |
Make ridge of hope produce stuff XD |
