Talk:Interplanetary (Map Game)

Algorithm
The Algorithm here is borrowed from SSS2 (by Edgeofnight).

Tier 1 (+25)
Each nation on the scale gets +5 for the algorithm, baring the lowest end of the scale (IE: Tier 1 will get +20, Tier 5 Gets +0) Bonuses will also be reward for being a higher on the scale than your opponent: +1 for each tier you are above your opponent. (So in the case of a T1-T5 War, T1 gets an extra +5 for being 5 tiers above T2). Over time you can move up the Tier scale.

Development
Every turn when you are not at War or expanding, you can develop 2 things: Military, Economy, or Infrastructure. You can also double develop, putting both of your points into 1 catagorey. MIlitary and Economy grant +1 for a single develop, or +2 for a double develop. Infra grants +1.25 for a single development, and +2.5 for a double development. Military and Economy are multiplied by your power.

NPCs Double Develop Military. then Infra, then Eco.

Modifers
These are added After Multiplacation.

Military modifiers
Modifers are added AFTER you multiple your scores. You can not get both "More troops" and "Army dwarfs enemy's" you get one or the other


 * More troops:+2
 * Signifigantly more troops (2X-5X):+5
 * Army dwarfs enemy's (greater than 5X): +10
 * Greater Space Force:+2
 * Control of Orbital Space:+10
 * Much smaller armed forces:-2
 * Armed forces dwarfed:-5

Economy Modifiers

 * Evenly Matched Econ:+1 to both sides.
 * Larger economy:+2
 * Much larger economy:+5
 * Economy dwarfs enemy's:+10

Power
Your power has caps based on tiers:
 * Giant Space Force:+4
 * Giant Land:+4
 * Giant Air:+4
 * Large Land: +3
 * Large Navy;+3
 * Large Air:+3
 * Medium Land: +2
 * Medium Space Force:+2
 * Medium Air:+2

 * Small Space Force:+1
 * Small Air:+1


 * Tier 6=3
 * Tier 5=4
 * Tier 4=6
 * Tier 3=7
 * Tier 2=9
 * Tier 1=12

The USR will start the game with a large Naval and medium/large land. So it's power will be 5/6 according to the normal powers. However, the USR gets 1 extra point added to it's power, so it starts with 6/7.

Power is a multiplier.

Popular Revolt/Major Enemy
Popular revolt is a special bonus given by mods during Popular Revolutions. These Bonuses last 5-10 turns. This bonus multiples your end result by 1.5, so if your final score was 60, you would get 90. While you can have both of these at once, they do not stack.

 * First strike is a -2, second is a -3, and third on is -5. These stack, so you can get -10 or 15
 * Strikes fade after 10 turns

Fronts

 * Fighting on 2 seperate fronts would cost you -30
 * 3 fronts would be -45
 * 4 fronts would be -70
 * Each addtional front (god help the man who has to do that algo) would cost -30 for each addtional front.

Result
Mods will handle this.

Result
Add up and find the larger number.((y/(z+y))*2)-1 determines the maximum amount of territory gained, while (p)*(1-1/(2x)) determines the amount won per year. Y is the winners score, Z is the loser, P is the result of the first equation, and x is the number of years.
