As long as you are careful enough to recall, you will rank up.

Well... not necessarily. You need to defend and win to make rank. You cannot attack and lose, and you definitely cannot die anywhere.

Well you can pay yourself a big attack reinforcement to get some victories.

No. This is what credits are for. You earn more to kill a high ranked player, so that validates higher invesment to win. Also, you can expect good players to ave low ranks often due to death.

One of the main idea of GW is that you can pay to get more in game.

Periodic reinforcements.
Depending of your rank, you can ask some units to be dropped in your base every X minutes.
The type of unit and the periodicity of reinforcements depend of how much you've paid.

Starting with some stuff.

The other option is that you start with something next to your ACU.
That something is probably "huge", but require some time to activate.

Really nice idea!

Yes.

That's the idea. Knowing that when attacking, you can't really plan who you are fighting against

I think its a really great idea what Zep is planning. Sure there will be much work to do to balance such kind of features but for me it sounds really awesome ....

@ ZeP

Is there any plan about a counter or something for a defending mission, so that a attacking player has only xx minutes to get a win by destroying building XX? For example a satellite witch gets activated at minute 40.

Only a "little" idea but maybe a really funny game mode.

hope my English is not to bad

Good idea to be able to cancel fogofwar if you pay for it.

Zep, just an idea, if/when you put this into Alpha, can you give us more to spend, rather than less - just makes testing life a bit easier.

Cheer.

If possible i would prefer a system, where you have to buy the reinforcements on the GW map, and deploy it on certain planets, instead of assign it to players. (at least for defence, for atack not sure).

If a battle is lost, some reinforcements will be lost (or some others when it falls under certain %).

When you have a certain rank, or spy a planet for credits (another feature!), you could see the defence reinforcements.

Defender could be allowed different reinforcements then atacker.

That could be an option in the longer run, but not now.
