'''Round 36'''


Firstly, [[Round 36]] signup dates have changed slightly. Apologies for this change; this is to ensure all code is fully tested before ticks start. They will now be as follows:


Below are the major changes for Round 35:
Round 36 signups start Monday, 8th March at 20:00 GMT
* New alliance attack page
Round 36 ticks start Friday, 19th March at 20:00 GMT, and will continue for 7 weeks
* Added new alliance scan request system
* Notifications now paid only
* Buddy pack limit now 3
* Single target ship statistics
* Allianceless planets get a reduced tax rate on the universal exchange (now up to 10% rather than up to 25%).
* 1 Selfexile every 3 ticks
* 1 Late join for gals with 3 BP members, 2 for gals with 2 BP members (exiling 1 out of a gal with 3 BP members does NOT give 2 late joins)
* Upgrade bonuses increased, base rates doubled, smaller increase of the per tick gain


For this round we are also trialling the following changes:
To compensate for it, havoc will be extended until Sunday 7th March, 20:00 GMT, and additional havoc resources will be distributed at 20:00 GMT on Friday, 5th March.  
* A planet in an alliance can only be defended by other members of the alliance or his galaxy
* Cluster ETA bonus for defence removed.


Alliance limits will stay the same, 70 maximum with 60 counting towards the alliance score.
The Round 36 round name competition has entered the voting phase. Please vote for your favourite name(s) on this thread.  


Beta testing for many of these changes are available at http://beta.planetarion.com, with the subsequent changes added soon.
The galaxy banner competition has been discontinued due to a lack of entries. Thanks to those three who did enter images!
