I have an idea.
It was inspired by SW Revenge of the Sith (the LotRish).
You have a ship.
But at the bottom of the map is the interior of your ship.
In the interior of your ship it is a bit like a LotRish base.
Your outside ship is invinceable.
The current problem i am dealing with is how to stop the person who owns the base from camping the place the other dudes will spawn.
And I am debating about whether to have space tileset or instalation.
Discuss away!
More Details:
You choose which ship(s) you have, which includes your interior.
Every unit has an upkeep cost and a energy cost. Upkeep (money) is minerals. Energy is gas tanks, which get made on *one* ship. You have to ferry them about on workers.
MAYBE: You must also pay your people (upkeep). But, because wire transfer is all too convenient, you must pay them in mineral chunks. One mineral chunk pays for 8 upkeep on the ship its on. If you are caught out in outer space when payday comes along, then the unit is pretty much lost - he will go on strike. As he isn't in a ship you cant pay him, and as he is on strike you can't move him. So, he is just sat out there owned by player 12.
