Benefits of launching an Ultimate Weapon :-
1. Name in hall of fame
2. Restart Any Race
3. 90% damage to all none fed members
Pending Review
4. Carry one ship research over from the race you activate it to the race you become ( Excluding Guardian ) i also feel this idea is great for stacking ( more UW`s = another research + past ones so eventually you could have your own Lucas empire )
5. starting planet reward, you may choose one of the below:
Regular planets and Edens Set Size`s as follows
* 20k - Real Time
* 15k - Ultra
* 10k - Fast

* Normal :- 25 bases 20 regalo 6 btc 12 stc 6 major gordo 3 pcc
* Fast :- 30 bases 25 regalo 7 btc 14 stc 7 major gordo 3 pcc
* Ultra :- 35 bases 30 regalo 8 btc 16 stc 8 major gordo 3 pcc

Notes:
Gaurdians & D maru are excluded from 4. so G & D class from A miner and Marauder also wont carry over.
virals only research is the scout
none exploration race cant explore with scout
Guardians will now receive 1,500 loyalty planets on RT and 1,000 on Turnbased

BadWolf
99+ day(s) ago | We are presently working on a few things in regards to this part of UW Rewards. So have some patience |
Sibiriangun
99+ day(s) ago | Has there been any decision taken wether the ship carry over is still in effect or has been canceled? |
MajorDinero
99+ day(s) ago | Naw rag, ppl still hit UWs a lot. If you UW isnt getting hit, it`s not always a sign that the game is dying...maybe there was just good planning/timing that went into the UW! |
Ragnarok
99+ day(s) ago | Does that even really matter on any server besides turn-based? Esp when many UWs don`t even get more than 20 or 30 hits anymore? |
Apollo
99+ day(s) ago | it was so ppl would stop letting their UWs get killed @ 47 hours after getting a bunch of free wins |
PistolPete
99+ day(s) ago | If the economies across the races were similar then it would probably make more sense to have this carry a ship over rule. But as it is now, it is overpowering. It doesn`t make sense that you can use the marauder ships with low upkeep at the a.miner race. I dont get why this rule was ever implemented. |

99+ day(s) ago | I``m...not sure about this frankly. What I mean is I don`t really have an opinion either way. I plan on UWing some time this year, and I`d like to carry over a ship, but I`m not exactly planning on UWing specifically for the ship, so taking away the reward isn`t exactly a deal breaker to me. I do have dreams of having ships from several races, but I also know that the odds of that happening are basically nil, since it`s taken me 9 years to even get around to attempting a serious UW. So...I guess I`ll leave it to others to decide, since I can`t :P |

99+ day(s) ago | Having a ship reward will entice more uws to happen.. else we just have most of the old empires just become older.. |
Apollo
99+ day(s) ago | who has the most reward ships, i cant be more then 4-5 can it? why not just make that the max |
Brotherhood
99+ day(s) ago | Thanks bw..looking forward to seeing what the decion is. I would concider just going back guard also if no ships carry over. And it beggs the queastion of the peeps that already have reward ships..do they keep them? Wow |
BadWolf
99+ day(s) ago | the reason it`s in review is because of the ship limitations of GC itself
once a decision is reached for how to proceed i`ll put up a banner link to this thread with the new info. |
Brotherhood
99+ day(s) ago | Yes I am very curious also. Can someone admin wise let us know. This changes a lot for a lot of peeps. |
nedflanders
99+ day(s) ago | Interesting, so we may not have UW rewards anymore. What does this mean...will people that currently have UW rewards be able to keep their UW reward ships? |

wait .. what?? :s
it`s like one of the only reasons i would UW....
and i`ll definitely try one; unless this reward is revoked.. lol, then i`ll just go Guard again <_< |

99+ day(s) ago | Viral scout sucks lol, I`d know. I have it on a miner. And it`s only useful in the first few days of your empire when you don`t have the higher scouts researched :P |
Infernal
99+ day(s) ago | Scouts have nearly nothing to do with c3`s other than the creation of the first 2 or 3 c2`s. Moot point imho |
BowlingForSoup
99+ day(s) ago | I disagree, if a Viral wanted to start as a different race via UW, the scout is far superior to Terran and A.Miner. Granted the Opal is much better, as I understood this,
``Gaurdians & D maru are excluded from 4. so G & D class from A miner and Marauder also wont carry over``
would mean no Guardian scout can be carried, utilizing the `also` they included, unless they mean exclusively G.Class.
I personally would love the Viral scout on a Terran, with the superior colony count, you can much more easily create a C3.
Plus RT needs more UWs, so I agree with the scaling. You can gordo a U.Fert to 10k relatively easily, so the advantage being when you start fresh your not losing, personally, as much and allow a quicker rebuild. |
Archaeoptyrex
99+ day(s) ago | I would suggest that the UW rewards are not that overpowered (although the large u fert is a little OP).
When I did a viral UW ... Guess what great ship was worth taking? The kohoutek. No V class, and no captured ship.
On slow server, it took at least two years to get back a decent empire ... Not one day.
For me it seems that the rewards are the wrong way round. The faster the server speed, the Smaller the reward should be. Anyone can recover on rt. Slow server 1000+ day empires ought to get something better for a successful UW. |
Helms{}Deep
99+ day(s) ago | it doenst make Virals want to do UW, only ship they research is scout...right, Id perhaps carry a scout over to Collective or Marauder, but they dont even have option to explore, so why bother? |
