yes the system as of now is abusable

but the general concept of rewarding ppl for taking part in wars and battles is good. Of course it will need serious tweaking in order for it to work like it's supposed to.

why don't u, instead of looking at its bad side and complain about it or want it remove, look at its good side and try to suggest a way to improve it?

a very nice general concept... encouraging wars and battles. However it's more like rewarding suicide instead.

the new update for the battle score system that was planned will fix that to an extent though. But there is one problem still exists, that is the power limit. Which eventually make the players undesired to get a high power since they will get no score from suiciding squads.

one thing I still don't like is how u can't lose the score u gained through the battle. I mean, yeah the new update will gonna lower the score u gain a lot but it's still un-lose-able... which is not a good idea for me.

But why do you like it?

sucks big time.

getting a score that can never be taken away from you is stupid, i'm sorry to say.
here is a new strategy:
10 colonies fight each other only. each one of them holds a squad of snipers in their base, and each one of them sends a squad of rifle to attack one of the others, once a day.
this will result in 30 points per day for each colony (rifles lose to snipers 30-0).
in a quick calculation, each colony ends up a 2500 ticks round with 3000 points from battles only.
add the boost bar going off every once in a while and you could probably get to 4k points for each colony (including points for workers etc.)

they all join forces before the end and merge into a one big happy alliance.
this alliance will have around 40k points without holding even 1 crystal. they don't need army, they don't have to fight anyone, and they didn't boost. with few boosts, you can probably get to around 50-60k points which in the last e1 would be a nice competitor at #1. without holding 1 crystal, did i mention that already?

Even more stupid is the limitation of power differences. you want to prevent bully'ing the weak, but what really happens now is that weak colonies attacking stronger ones all the time. they keep losing, but they dont mind because they keep getting score for it. so theoretically, they can lose all the time but eventually pass the ones that they were bothering, only because those were more powerful so never got any score for those stupid battles.

Last example from last e1: AI did not attack PRAE because they were tanks and PRAE were vecs, and since vecs have bonus against tanks, AI didnt want to let them get the score for their killings, while AI would get less because they were more powerful. so you wanted to get more battles, but here is an example of how you missed a big one.

so this scoring system sucks, and any other way to describe it would be just pretending.

sorry for being the party pooper again

This simple.. u score points depending on how many units killed without rank playing a part,, Example

Langy 500 units sent 49 Armour dead.. 49 points to the opponent

Joe Blow 460 units defending: Loss 460 units

Langy scores 460 points

If group attack divide points as same as you have it at the moment depending on how many units sent into battle..

Encourages Fighting and also Doesn't have an Arch enemy sitting top 10 because he is continually attacked all era losing his units every time and still achieving a top 10 rank.
