Bomb banks needs to be stronger. Right now you can only destroy as much as your NW, it seems (correct if wrong).

So if buddy is 3 mil NW with 3 bil$ onhand and no spies, and you have a buttload of spies and only 3 mil NW, then you can only destroy 3 mil$ per successful op.

Even if you succeed every op until he's spies out you won't manage to destroy 1/4 of his cash reserves.

It needs strengthened. Maybe make the max destroyed 5x the NW of the aggressor.


Also, it's time for an energy efficiency tech.

That does sound kind of weak. Not that I would want to make it TOO much stronger, but I think you've got a point (about bombing banks, not energy tech).

It depends on how much cash you have on hand too. Looks like you had too little cash in hand when you're destroying his cash.

I don't think your own networth affects the amount destroyed at all. I think it is linked solely to the amount of cash you have on hand, like diez said.

Oiler is already weak enough, we don't need to make it even weaker with an oil efficiency tech.

The NW definitely limits the amount of cash destroyed. I've tried it with several countries and I doubt it's a coincidence that they all only destroyed the equiv $ of their NW, despite the amounts of cash on hand.

I'm doubtful that cash on hand has anything to do with it. Perhaps if you're bombing banks of someone who barely has any cash, but the spy op would never be used in that situation.

It's really weak that countries can sit on huge stockpiles of cash with no spy protection and be untouchable.

That would be incorrect oats. Try making 4-5 FFA countries and check it out.
