Okay here's a idea I am gonna toss out, City's, they will work likes Labs and monuments in a essence. what they will do is boost tax revenue for the entire alliance by a percentage of sorts say 40% or 50%, ( up for debate). It is basically a bonus to your tax revenue when you send out your tax collector. It would look like a city on the map and you can race to occupy them. The city's could be different sizes or tiers which could lead to different percentages of tax revenue the alliance shall receive. The spawns would change every 15 days. Each alliance is limited to one. For ruby sales: possibly if you were to snag a lower tier city, you could spend alliance rubys to upgrade it to a higher tier city and give a better percentage while you have it, but if someone were to take it, it would default to the original tier. If you have more to add to the idea. By all means expand on it.

We HAD Alliance Cities for a brief period. Not how you describe them, but they were an interesting diversion........

These are not like those city's, i remember them, all it would do is work the same as a Lab or monument, all it would do is give a tax revenue bonus. The idea come from the thought of capturing a city and they pay taxes to your alliance, but all it is, is a bonus to your tax revenue when you send out your tax collector. it would look like a city on the map and you can race to occupy them.

Sounds cool. Seems simple enough as well. But, not much ruby sales tied to it, so low priority for them......

Yeah, that would work! Would even make GGS happy for ruby spend. I hope the Mods take the suggestion in for you. It would be a simple (it seems) copy / paste functionality. Just like Labs, but it hits a boost to tax like bribing the tax collector. No new functions that would bog them down.

IT WOLUD be cool just to see something like this make it from the forum to the game.

It would also mean the apocalypses is imminent, but would be worth it........

Not many people still collect taxes as you can get way more from Nomad hits.

I think that's why the functionality of the tax collector needs a update with something like this, because as you get higher level it becomes small money.

This is actually a reason why they WOULD make a change like this. No REAL impact to the game balance, but gives the impression that they care...........

I would love to hear what a CM or a Moderator thoughts on this idea would be.
