Reply to Final votes for Beta 3 in Elemental Dev Journals Stardock Forums

I voted fair. Since the original game came out, I've played as Lord Markin of the Ironeers. The game is much better than when Elemental was first released, but still broken and just not up to task.

Add a slider in addition to the tech. You can research the tech to unlock larger fleet sizes. Then you have a slider below it. You can move the slider up and down, the minimum being 0 upkeep but no tech enhancements and the top being maxed out with 70% upkeep (75?). You set a point on the slider that you want. The point you want does not represent where things actually are. Instead there is a secondary value shown behind it (Like a media player on youtube, there is a slide for what is loaded an
