This is simply my opinion. It always amazes me how people get so uptight when someone changes the game (THEY) created. I have now read that Brad is going to change back to a wheel per planet with an effect called Coercion.

In all honesty, Stardock can do whatever they like with the game. I will enjoy it and learn to adapt to what they feel the game should be. Its a game. It can and will change. I am very happy that we have a developer that takes the time to read the forums and actually adopt change based on the vocal minority or whatever, as the case may be.

I am happy without the wheel and I will learn and enjoy with a wheel. Either way, I will learn and adjust my expectations to the new mechanic.

Cheers!
