Should probably be the same 500 as a bbr.

Good to hear the change seems to have worked.

Free base doesn't pay for it?

the amount of money it takes to research it is more than the amount of money it takes for another tech to stop it

I can't be arsed to see if this has been mentioned before, but shenanigans ensue when 1 OH miner arrives at an op shortly after another one. I was playing a test game, and watched the miners bounce off of each other until (eventually) one miner knocked the other into the green door.

I can confirm TF SF's are real big

The amount of profit you get from it is higher than any other end game tech (except nerve gas). Also what you say happens to any other end game tech, see sbs against pps and tp2 fbs against hvy ints with pps camping their base for tp2 drops.

and you also need a large portion of your team to coordinate to actually do work to cap it. sbs are the only things that come close to the amount of work it takes to end a game

Well to be fair, convincing the average PuG team to buy figbees is a fair challenge

As for any endgame taking away one base from the enemy is the 95% of the benefit. Yes, hull ga and boost 2 can be nice for your ints, but who really cares with hvy ints vs basic figs.

Who cares for that free op next to the enemy home or that free garrison in their tech sector.
