A low Wealth in itself might mean we have very little to spend at the end of each chapter, also I have a bad feeling that a high population mixed with a low level of order might mean a lot of wealth simply poofing into thin air...<br/></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>While I don't disagree that having high Law and Wealth wouldn't be nice I just don't think we have the resources to spend on them.<br/><br/>If we were allowed to ask the military folks what they thought  ::) then I'm pretty sure they'd agree that the fleet as a whole needs mining,refinery & agricultural ships to have any chance of surviving for an extended period. The total cost of those ships  is 40 support points, if the military aren't going to do the honourable and pick up their half of the cheque then we'd have to spend 17 points to get all three ships. That would leave us with either a 6 or a 4 + 1 to spend on everything else.<br/><br/>The other option is only to do our half with the mining and agri ship which gives us more options but then it's down to the military if we run out of fuel after a week.<br/><br/>So first decision are we doing all of the support stuff or only "our" half?
