Don't kill yourselves, just rough ballpark is good enough.
Trying to get a handle on what taking a planet will cost, what kind of ISK layout will our EVE employers be looking at, what would have to be the value of minerals/industry/etc on a planet to make that kind of layout worthwhile?
Not to mention any losses incurred by orbital support ships lost, etc. |

Then was forge gunners if they didn't have enough isk. Mainly vehicles were the ones I was giving corp funds too. I would say a contract would have to be worth wild and be at least 100mil isk if they really wanted the district against a good opponent. (accounting for new in game features)
Well, that's something, at least. Thanks for the feedback. To me the real question here is going to be: What resources will be made availiable on the planets and what are their values?
It's a separate question and valuation from contracts that are meant to affect sov mechanics. Really Thinking about it from a resouce point of view right now. |

How much ISK worth of gear got trashed? It wouldn't even be POSSIBLE to imagine that total destruction value being less than the total prize payout. The top 2 probably got enough to cover their costs, and it's possible someone else may have achieved the same, but I'm pretty sure most would have run the tourney at a loss.
What you say is absolutely true, Garrett, i picked the finals because it was 4 matches with the same opponents both with coherent, consistent vehicle/infantry strategies. I'm sure most troopers spent their own isk/aur but Omni's feedback lets us put a lower bound on the valuation. |

SI will end up positive over the whole toruny. So we spent under 100 mil. Hope that helps.
Worth mentioning the final cost more than everything else put together.
Thanks for the feedback, Sha Kharn. I'm with you - something is missing in the equation. That's why i'm asking these questions. For my money, i think that something is gonna be hella interesting. |
