This problem might be a good thing, considering I still believe maging has become the most powerful strat, making it better seems... unproductive.

Your landlock was before the spell got nerfed, so there isn't really a comparison that can be made

What I'm thinking is that the capacity for spies is too high. Like it should be 500, and its really 50,000 per or something like that. WHICH would explain why its so broken.

Currently, the admin account is maxed at around 90 spies per hut. That seems a bit off.

There is a decent amount of indiers and the occasional farmer. Now it will be more like 90% magers.

It seems fairly well balanced right now. It took me a long time to set up my jump up to emp on WoA, and Arty came fairly close to a takedown a few times with his suicides. The slow refill rate makes it a bit harder to recover, and I think it's a good thing.

Although I do think that it should top out at 100/hut. That seems to be the prom standard.

It's simple math shadow, of course the comparison can be made. You just need to adjust for how much the spell was nerfed.

I still say mages have the advantage over others. BFR for example. The Freen empire has far more net than Murder... who is me but nobody is breaking me but people are breaking him cause of mages. I have to now murder the other magers to keep their mage counts down, got my work cut out for me. But I guess increaging hut capacity by alittle won't do much.

...Ah. Even so, It would mean maxing capacity in your huts faster. Which would help everyone I guess?

Not completely true. Mages can murder/etc, but 31 shielded murders actually benefits a good indier because it allows them to keep more of their land while causing relatively little damage. At a place like RWL mages have a massive edge because of the open atk op spell, but here there is a bit more of a balance.

People could murder Freen til kingdom come and it probably wouldn't even slow him down if he keeps his shields up.

Changing the fill rate will call for a complete overhaul of the output of missions to balance the change... it could be done, but I don't really see a need for it.

Well they don't need to murder, they can mage battle the land away. But the increased rate would help everyone, so it can be done without unbalancing anything.

How would it help indiers and farmers? All it would do is allow mages to start their production phases earlier and more profitably without helping any of the other strats significantly/.
