what if lawyers instead of doing damage to a village stole the other guys money? Like they're billing him and he's paying... It would hinder his ability to use weapons, or at least from using good weaponry.

Again, that might be overpowered.

I like that idea Smiley  Although still, the problem is making that really apparent to the player.  Maybe we can come up with something...

If they stole the money, would it be worth spending 150 on each?

Well the lawyers would have to take more money then they cost... and if they took 175 (since the price is 150) it could be a little overpowered... so possibly lower cost and thus lowering amount of $ the steal...

Nah, the lawyers should give you less than they cost, because if they payed for themselves than you could just keep getting lawyers, taking money from enemies, and gaining money.

What would be the point then? The user will just lose money.

Because then the other player won't be able to attack you.

If you can afford to spend the 150 and your enemy is using an expensive weapon like airstrike, you can keep them from getting enough money.

But that would also prevent YOU from using any good weapons.

You would be able to hold him off long enough to fire rocks or missiles.

You wouldn't be able to use airstrike though.

I guess that could work if you have more money then him, and when he's down to 0$ or something else really low, you can switch weapons. Is that what you're saying?

Basically. But it would only be effective if they are trying to use an expensive weapon.

Thats exactly what I want to prevent because the expensive weapons are also the better ones (i.e. Air Strike)

Dinos can kill lawyers easily, so the lawyers wouldn't be able to prevent them from attacking, just hold them off for a while.

But that's what I was worried about, the dino using the lawyers would be broke as well as the other dino, which would make the weapon useless.
