SOI Transition Deadline: The last day we will take requests for SOI transition help is this Friday, May 6th. Requests received after that will simply be closed. Max Garrison limits and DOW/attack restrictions will likely be put into place next week. These are ONLY the limits on numbers of unmobilized units in each zone and the limitations on who you can attack and DOW mentioned in earlier updates and forum posts. The Cease Fire (mini-surrender), free attack costs
Added and tested some infrastructure for implementing garrison limits and made further progress evaluating and preparing for SOI transition assistance.
The SOI robots have worked through all of the level 14, 10 and 9 empires in the game and are currently working on level 13, 12 and 8 empires. All of the updates should be completed in the next 2 days and all zones will be fully updated. At that point SOI updates will only occurr manually by players clicking on the zones in question.
SOI Transition: We have begun working through the requests for SOI transition assistance. We would like to reiterate that our intent is to help players who have critical infrastructure that is put at significantly greater risk because of SOI changes. While many of the requests viewed so far have been legitimate, many have also been rediculous. This is NOT an opportunity to get the admins to consolidate your empire to a tiny core. Some of the cities we have been asked to review are single zones, with hundreds of unclaimed zones around them. Others have been largish cities near the borders of someone's main zones that have a garrison limit of nearly 200 units and with buildable space around them that could easily be used to further strengthen the SOI in that area. If you have other options then you will be expected to take those in-game options available to you. This means that if there are SOI zones you can claim then you should claim them, if you are surrounded by an ally who could easily give you zones to build in then you should negotiate with that ally, or if the zone is one that is not a significant portion of your empire then you simply need to decide handle it on your own.
Players that we HAVE helped so far have been ones who have infrastructure that was either gotten with donation bonuses or represents a very sginificant amount of infrastructre to the empire that is put at significant risk beacuse of SOI issues.
If there is something you do not understand about SOI, please open a help ticket! We are happy to explain it to you. We have answered tickets from some players who claim their empires is "screwed" by SOI changes when it has actually made it MORE defensible.
