2 Things

[JNation]

I know both of these things have been addressed before but i feel that we should continue to bring them up until fixed (and these are not the only problems either).

First: Stop putting recruit armies in daily dock shipments. This is by far, and excuse me for saying this, the dumbest thing. I can simply trained those troops anyways. They offer no benefit other than not having to wait the few minutes to train them. I think the best approach for Dock shipment would be a 3 tier system where you could pick 1 of 3 options under trade goods, 1 of 3 options under special blessings and 1 of 3 option under NTG's. You can mix match those choices any way you want

Second: What exactly is the point of rubies again...? Yes, i know we use them to buy stuff with Marco polo, but if he is not offering an option to use them then i really don't care for him anymore. Rubies can only be used with him so if thats the case then make that transaction available every time he comes around.

If you are unsure about these two changes then look to the response of the community. I am certain that you'll find universal agreement regarding these two.

yep ... the recruit armies just mean i have to go through the process of getting rid of them, it's just a chore.

rubies though .. not so bad. they may be clumsier than we'd like, but it's something ppl want that are occasionally useful.
i wouldn't give them an accolade, but it isn't a fumble. obviously marco will offer ruby-stuff again.
the only useful thing so far has been the 'troop chest', and since it's no longer an every-week thing there's a simple process to follow:
buy as many troop chests as you can when they appear, otherwise hoard rubies.
