Unbalance race bonus

Is it only me or Arachnids are useless and Reptiles are too strong?
1v1 with these and Reptiles wins nearly all the time.

They should be canceling eachother out, I would say all luck.

Its too hard to win an attack with Arachnid against Reptiles and easy the other way.
well, without the code cant really tell why..

I agree - that without the actual code - impossible to tell.

From the description though - I would say that over time reptiles should beat arachnids. My reason for this is that they cancel each other out and a tie goes to the defender. This would give the advantage to the reptile if the arachnid were attacking.

I say this only from the view of the arachnid attacking the reptile - which is what I understand the question to be. Over the course of the game - they do cancel each other out and skill/luck should decide it - with the race not impacting it at all.
In Vortex Wars: 50% of the game is luck. 50% is skill. The other 50% is math.

Well, either way, I just know there is only 5% att or def, it doesn't do much anyway...

Though several players have been complaining about 'feeling' the arachnids don't work... who knows? There might actually be a problem. :)

I have to agree here. An Arachnid equal attack against a Reptile, and the Arachnid almost always loses.

Regardless of whether there is a bug with the Arachnids race or not, this game always prefers expanders over turtles, therefore - Arachnids FTW.
