New price of Ion Cannons in version 7

    In the new version of Ogame , introduced in Leda, Ion Cannons now cost 5k metal and 3k crystal to build - instead of the usual 2k metal and 6k crystal. Their characteristics seem unchanged, though.

    This change should have a big impact on Ion Cannon use. Basically, they are now a lot cheaper - now they can be used a lot more.

    How does this price change affect the defensive strategy? Is it enough to make the Ions finally useful?


    P.S. I tried, but failed to find any discussion of this change on this forum. (Please post the link here if there is any discussion somewhere.)

    The discussion link.

    Besides the price, the bomber and the lack of crystal in new universes should all be aware.

    Thanks for the link!

    Strange that this thread lies in the Suggestions forum. And very strange that my search didn't give me any results, because I did search there! I guess I don't know how to use the search, after all! :D

    Thread should probably be closed now...


    Or we could use the thread linked above for suggestions to change the Ions somehow and this thread to discuss how to use the Ions with the current stats? I guess, the moderators will decide.
