I guess this might just be the calm before the Alliance storm. At least I hope that and wish to believe that.

Regarding the original question.

Edit: Since the post I made that somehow dissapeared I'll post it again.

I want the 'Everyone near the ball can grab it' back from the passing bug. That made things much more interesting.

I wouldn't mind just new game-modes for Skirmish.

Bring back Resource Race. Bring along Wandering Hill lie Richard recommended centuries ago. Bring out an Oddball type game-mode where you pass a cargo baloon around. Just something more.

Just.... try and fix what's already there. Especially since it looks like Alliance is about to become it's own game.

I totally agree with this. I thought it was awesome. It made much more sense and skyball became 3x more fun because of it.

I'd be all in favor of testing that as an intentional feature, the only problem might be the counter-intuitive fact that the squid would have the most engine power in a tug of war.

Sure, they have the most engine power. However, they would be tethered to Galleons.

In the testing the ships just kept getting pulled back towards eachother. It pretty much guaranteed a brawl between two ships and two others attempting to support in some form.

True, I guess even dragging a Junker would be slow enough for 'slow squid = dead squid' to kick in long before the ball gets to a goal.
