Summer Edition of Blacknova Traders Anyone?

[Masada]

Well, the summer is getting here rapidly and along with that comes some freetime! (At least for me ) I already know G-man's answers but who else would want to play some oldschool BNT?
-Masada
-GreyGhost?
-G-man
-Dbabe
-Dynamic?
-Soul?
There are 6 off the top of my head.
To get started I think we should run a test game for about a week or so to make sure we get the settings balanced.

What is everyones thoughts? I know the old game is still up, so I don't believe it would be too much trouble on you soul to get it going for us all would it?

[{OF}GreyGhost]

I'm in!

[{OF}G_Man]

I'm in.

You bringing Warcraft III mods to LAN Mas??

[Masada]

Of Course! My cousin should be coming, hes the king of them. People are still creating maps for that game so expect some really good games!

[Soul]

I will get it started

Hey Soul and Everyone Else. I have a few changes I want to run past everyone.

1.) I would like to transition back to .21a Alien Assault Traders and here is why.

- A dynamic changing commodity trading system. I want the price of commodities to rise with the game as to not obsolete trading as BNT sorely does.

- The ability to have new ships, so that your cargo ship is not your fighting ship.

- The ability to have a planet limit defined in sectors so that sectors that hold 5 planets are much more rare and more valuable.

- The ability to create sectors.

2.) Along with AA.21a I would love to see the planets generate interest like we did with that one game soul. I was thinking somewhere along the lines of a .25% to .5% interest rate in the banks ( with a cap ) with Planets being .6% to .9% interest rate. This would need testing to see if this would really work. My guess is a 0 or two would be needed in those interest rates to keep interest from being ridiculous.

Really, I cannot think of any really bad aspects of AAtraders except the lack of planet interest. I think playing with the game for a week or two would allow us to get a good dynamic trading system in place.

As for people who would play I know that:

-Masada
-Greyghost
-Gman
-(my roommate Myke-the warmonger )

Others who might play, but I don't know are:

-Soul
-Dbabe

Also, they still show .21a servers at the AATraders main website, so others could join in, if we decide to do this I will make posts in the forums over there to attract people. Also, I will do the best I can to play with settings to get this game balanced and make it peak at its potential with fun ^^.

[Soul]

So you want Aatraders and not BNT... that will take a bit more work, give me a few days

[Masada]

Well, im only suggesting it, its up to everyone else.
