if anything strat needs a reset and changes made to it, so any small group of people can pool together resources quickly and easily, the problem with getting things going with strat, is it takes not only the super nerds to lead it, but people with vast amounts patience to get things organized and deal with changes as they happen.
tbh, and i get what they were trying to do ( donky crew ) but the new focus resource management really slowed the pace of strat. it became much more important this strat to organize the financial aspects of building an army, which lead to alot less armies actually being used. the risk is fairly high now, so we have most of the factions out there building up armies rather than using them, where as if armies where easier and faster to build there would be much less risk in using them and people would probably attack alot more often.
fuck, i guess i am a broken record, all of this shit everyone already knows to the point its common mutherfucking knowledge by now and has been discussed like 6 fucking months ago. damn.
