Still military powers would have large gathering and deploying areas. They wouldnt just say THAT GALAXY CAN GO AND LAND IN THAT FIELD OVER THERE!! So there could still be justification, even if its ruined and outdated?


personally i think the train idea would be an amazing event in game. Have the train at random times of day drive around the map with a high payload of resources, everyone would stream to it. Much like trying to capture the flag in PS1.

BETTER IDEA!! YES YES YES!! The train releases resources to your empire while being stationary in a owned Hex on the map, the train only stops with the front car is disabled. Meaning that the enemy will have to fight their way in, and repair the train. And get it to move to a friendly Hex. Then disable it there. Or Capture the enemy Hex, which presumably would take much longer.

This could have some amazing gameplay moments of engineers hot dropping in to try and repair the train for as little as they can, to try and get the train to move a few feet into their Hex.

Or tons of engineers planting mines and C4 on the tracks, to stop the train. Meaning that sunderers Would have to drive in front to EMP the mines.

I have officially decided this has to go in now! See TF2 Payload maps for details DEVS. xx
