Could you clarify why this might be necessary?

We need to get more Resources into circulation, and this seemed like a straightforward, quick (and temporary) solution that might also tilt the distribution of Classes a bit towards the unpopular, and currently underpowered, Scout. Shaking up the map configuration might have other interesting consequences, of course.

It’s advantageous for those who have a fleet…

It would accomplish that, but it’s a bit drastic.

I support it. Having a fleet does way in

While we do need more resources in circulation (which is what my proposal was for), this solution makes little sense and won’t do much to incentivize Scouts because it’s hard to change Ship Class. Something like mining, for instance, would better accomplish the objective.

Well, we have a rule that works like mining but is easier—I proposed that one about a week ago—and no one’s had a chance to use it yet. I think we should figure out a few more things about Resources—and in particular, Credits—before we start rebalancing the economy.
