Temporary Att Allocation over 60

[Admiral Nelson]

Ok, 30HP does sound a lot though. We will do with 20HP per point and max 300HP (75 pointer or 15 unallocated points) aka out of this.

This will be triggered only when the ship has as trait reinforced hull or durable sails.

May I ask why? Although I am pleased with this suggestion being accepted, I believe it should be for 'all' ships with no traits.

However if thats the route you want to go down; I propose this as an add on. 20 HP for 300 HP extra for Reinforced Hull/Durable sails, then 10HP for 150HP for any other trait. As this way those that do not have the traits specified, can still get a buff/usage for said ships and Reinforced Hull/Durable Sails still 'comes out' up top.

there are 60+ point ships other than ship of the line. how much hp will they be getting? would be unfair to leave them out. or are we going to see sloops and hawkers with 300 extra hp?

Mine was just an example of a sotl.

It can be done to all ships, in my opinion.

Perhaps these should combo only with Reinforced Hull and Durable Sails then. It makes sense to buff these two particular traits.

Sounds good !! Thank you

So..the guy who buys the most MC cards has the most powerful ships.

not necessarily ....there is 61 sotl on auction atm so there is the potential for a new market to open up

What is does is, raise the money bar and does nothing for actual skill enhancing strategy's.
If attributes were allowed to go over 10 but the cap remained at 60, then new att stacks could be tried out and actual att placement could make a difference in a battle.
As it is now, drive everything to the top and hope your dice roll wins.

The bar for the top just moved... that's the only difference as I see it.
Could be wrong...really don't matter one way or the other.

do note stan, that the current suggestion only apply to ships that have one of 2 traits, out of possible 9. and on many cases, these are not the best traits for any ship to increase pvp effectiveness. and since were talking about 60+ point ships, these might only be actually seen used by ships with 2 traits, and the other trait being leviathan defense
