Insurance(again)

[timthetyrant]

OK. so we know that insurance is fudged when you attack converters or bribers, but what about HQ troops? Ok so i was attacking a briber, but i didnt get bribed and was not attacking the alliance HQ. This is the BR i recieved(and yes look at that siren ratio on ninja/PolB for that other thread)

OK, so you can see no bribers and i suffer damage from A)ninjas(which probably killed off my 8m flak) and B) the HQ stuff, mostly the tanks.

The insurance should have been 20% of what died so about 77bil, turns out i only get 2% insurance? eh?

Is this meant to happen? and HQ troops dont give bounty or insurance?

 

[Iamsmart]

yup

 

[atsanjose]

yup

to this

and HQ troops dont give bounty or insurance?

 

[Alcibiades]

Tis very annoying about insurance. Bounty doesn't irritate me so much since I feel it could be abused easily.

 

[pinpower]

Yeah the bounty thing i can kind of understand but why no insurance? Im sure there was multiple threads about this ages ago...is it deliberate or an oversight?

 

[Iamsmart]

Did you just feel like summing up my post or something atsan?

 

[atsanjose]

?

 

[LAFiN]

pinpower, to answer your question, it is a deliberate effect of the HQ units. They've got to make up for their outrageous costs somewhere, and not giving insurance or bounty is where they make up for it.

they do give bounty...

 

[Ahead]

I'd guess that they give bounty according to the whole alliance's bounty level (the one you see on the alliance ranking page), but they don't give the world base bounty still.
