Thank you for formulating your criticism in a more reasonable way.
There is however no trace of a better solution to sudden surge in power.
You may have bought only 1600 weapons but you can do this 6 times a day if you wish and 9600 is a lot. You could have bought 5000 and then 6 times a day.
with no spending limits, you could purchase 200.000 6 times a day.
I wish this need for reactivation would solve the problem, but it does not.
It requires an extra one click on your side, and weapons will become available, 10% per game month without any further intervention.
We think that your neighbors should get a message if your military power surges quickly. (quickly and surge, need to be defined).
As I said before, you know what we are trying to achieve.
If you think our objective is wrong and we should keep everything as it is now, then we will not find a solution to agree on as we intend on changi

It is my belief that the changes you made makes it easier for a rogue player to eliminate players. I tried to make that clear, by demonstrating that defending an empire is more difficult than attacking one. That space transfers are a tool for the defender. The attacker has much more time to prepare than a defender that is on the clock. Though you have said the reactivation process should give time to put up a defense in the time delay allotted for a war declaration, you have offered no solution to a defender that finds multiple countries of theirs at risk, now that the flexibility of moving defenses is made more difficult.
The players with experience in wars who can read these changes and adjust will maintain and even enhance their advantage on the less experienced. I advised of a change that would help the less experienced. That would be changing the war air wings respond. Make it so the three most powerful wings will always respond from all avai

Way to be condescending...again. Do you know any other way to address people, or is this some form of brain damage?
I no longer care what you are trying to achieve, because it has become clear you will never achieve it. You generalizations around this subject are confusing...I do not know whether you are just bad at this, or you just enjoy using flawed logic to fix a perceived problem. Either way, it is extremely disturbing and I don't think you should be allowed to do the job you currently do without getting some assistance with your issues.

Aries,
I don't agree with the assumption that these "attacked" players have reserves on space stations.
they might not even know how it works.
Also, there is an assumption that many countries could declare on one and that there will be wars with many against very few.
we think that the number of countries on both sides should be comparable.
As to response to air attacks:
Having more wings respond will help. (At least some help here with good solutions).
Having more wings of all types in the country, with auto response capabilities will help too.
we will test many options.
More steps will follow in the coming upgrades and then, at some point, we will start lifting the war level related restrictions and more wars will become possible.
War levels will become much less of a factor in war declarations.
The war levels and the possibility to earn many gold coins mov

In general, we are responding to comments when these are constructive.
We certainly do not, when such comments are not and when it is clear that the comments come from someone interested in his or her own interest with no regard to the interests of players in general.
Some people are mailing us and have done so in the past, arguing that the group that is very vocal on the forum is very worried about themselves and control very large entities while many beginners are poorly represented. They are unable to see the pitfalls in the path ahead and don't know what to ask for.
we will try to act with the interest of these players too constantly on our minds.
Not ONLY but "too".
Also, last for now,
I assume we have software that reads the forum and if anyone is in disagreement with the moderator, it finds out if they have a CEO which is debt free, and starts prohibiting all kind of things.
And pigs can f

Heisenberg,
finished with the jokes.
If you are interested, let me know where it is and I will find out why.

I found the problem and solved it.
It was my own mistake. I am sorry about it.

The big problem I have with these changes still relates to the inability to respond to a rouge attacker. In this scenario, one attacker, just one, can load up one weapons, declare on any number of countries in one empire or fed, leaving everyone at a serious disadvantage. That pretty much sums it up for me. Disabling weapons every time they move is an issue... ok, I've already went over this numerous times. Just, whatever; we'll deal with it as always.
If we want to attract more players, I'm sure those playing the game have many great ideas from our vantage point. This would certainly validate our input and experiences thus far.

I have already given you the basis. Your actions regarding this problem aren't doing anything to solve any problem, it only makes inexperienced players MORE vulnerable. You have already stated you do not wish to change your stance or your plan, so why should I bother? Just like with reactivation, when you basically lied to my face that it is ten percent of the total weapons owned, when it is clearly not. You don't want input, you want validation.
I don't come with jokes, Andy. I cannot very well do that when there is such a HUGE joke sitting right in front of me. You could probably stop your boorish, condescending behavior, I guess that is when pigs will fly for me, no?

Khome,
We have said several times here that we will limit the number of countries you can declare on and the number of wars that can be declared on any country.
I think that the moment war starts, the attacked country could be in auto attack mode.
The player may not be around but the army might attack anyway.
Most wars up to now, had one side attacking, the other side not logged in and the attacked country always waited to be attacked.
It should be more balanced and less predictable.
You will not know what is going to happen when war starts on your request.

One must be careful of trying to shout down thoughts and opinions out of anger. That is the true tactic of communisim.
