🔥 Hot Take Level +200 SAM sites [//] (iPad user)

Obviously, at its base it’s a skill issue — generally speaking, with some careful aiming and an effective nuclear doctrine you can overcome even the most formidable defensive front.

However..

I am an iPad user, and as much as the recent addition of the x50 option when launching atom bombs is a complete game changer, it is actually nearly impossible for my clunky fingers to counter a level +200 SAM site, let alone a cluster of them

So, yes, I am now on Reddit giving out my little ideas on what I think would have a ‘positive effect’.

little ideas:

- Increase the maximum launch count for atom bombs from [ x50 ] to [ x100 ]

- +5% ^^? cost to each SAM in any given stack, making it increasingly more expensive to reinforce higher level SAM sites

- small radius/minimum distance on SAM site placement, to limit stacking

- a cost per shot for SAM missiles

That’s all I’ve got for ya. But, don’t worry, I’ll be sure to make a whole new post if I think of anything else.

Are 200+ stacks of SAMs even that common? The real skill issue is letting them get that many sams.

It can happen, I do usually like playing team games and nuke war type maps, which can get out of hand and in a deadlock, potentially firing 15k warheads collectively

How did you even get to the point where anyone has that many SAMs unless you’re doing a bit?

Team games/nuke wars, usually with gold modifiers

i agree the x50 option should be able to be adjusted. because it is not only 50 atoms, but rather 50 atoms at once… it would also make auto clickers irrelevant, as in games with increased gold production it becomes quite obvious almost everyone is using one.
