<div class="IPBDescription">For the high class minds</div> I just did a short reading in my book about economics and how it has to do with scarce resources and trading. To me Natural Selection <the game> is based on economics dealing with trade, exclusion to team mates, scarce resources at times, and "greater and powerful nations." Here's an example that might be helpful to understand my thought.
If we were to start out a game with only 12 players with a 15 resource starting limit and someone wanted a mine pack, the commander would trade his/her skill for that pack if they were to return later. If the player were to fail then the trade would be incomplete and Unnecessary. Therefore the commander would choose a greater skilled player to complete the mission and recieve something else in trade.
To me the resource towers symbolise money. The more corporates the nation has to offer for trading, the more resources come in for more trading and more exploration. So here's a theory,
Control resources> agree on a trade> complete the task> trade.
If this were possible, the marines could win easily rather than risking 10-20 resources on a weak corporate (player) to make that trade. So therefore, economics is taking over the world EVEN if we don't even know about it! Sneaky Flayra good idea!
