Since the new format went so well at CAX 8, we won't be making any MAJOR changes to it for CAX 9. Below are some of the things we will be tweaking though. Specifics will be released as we get closer to the next event.
Civilian Economy:
Slightly increase/tweak the costs and/or quantities of ammunition inside the Bank of Buckministan for civilians to slow the rate at which civilians can accumulate ammunition. Add special weapons to the civilian market to allow for more intricate boobytrap and defensive barricade options of their homes.
Civilian Vulnerability:
Though the vast majority of the civilian power came from factions being too timid in handling them and allowing them free reign walking armed through the city, some small tweaks are being discussed to discourage OPENLY armed civilians. The hope is to encourage more creative smuggling options for civilians to move their goodies.
Civilian Detaining:
As virtually no civilians were detained in CAX 8 due to the point penalty, the penalty will be removed entirely. A civilian being detained can be detained for the entirety of the current game, without a point dock. The balance will be inevitable loss of civilian support from the detained players unless properly treated and compensated.
HVTs:
High Value Targets will be a more prominent and persistent objective in CAX 9. Make sure you have a plan to gather intel on civilians in game as you'll need to identify civilian targets quickly when an HVT mission drops, as well as which families own which houses for the location of objectives.
Other changes will be updated here, prior to the event, as we decide them.
