I think there's a reason why broodmothere are allowed to keep only 5 (6 with some exceptions). How would this broodmother level up in the first place? She can't hunt, does she interact with the cubs and gain experience? A level 10 broodmother for example, would be able to keep 30 cubs if she could keep 3 cubs per level... 1 lioness tending for 30 cubs? At the end, it seems very OP to me. I'm not sure why you would have 200 cubs and only 5 broodmothers in the first place.

I'm not saying they get three cubs every level. Im saying every one to two levels they get ONE more cub. And some people dont have the money to buy more territory and the number of broodmothers corresponds to how much territory you have. Also, Im not saying I have 200 cubs, I'm saying I COULD.

Edit: I edited the post to make it simpler to follow :3

Having a nurturing lioness allows for her to be able to protect 6 cubs. 4 nurturing broodmothers would account for 24 cubs, which I know still wouldn’t cover up to 200, but hear me out. Cubs don’t need broodmothers to survive. I only have one broodmother on my side to account for cubs that I want to keep alive to adolescence/adulthood, and even then I typically only have to use her for a day. Keeping up with playing with cubs that aren’t protected helps their chance of survival, and, provided they don’t get into too many accidents, some cubs won’t need to be protected at all with this method (so far on my side I’ve only lost 2 cubs doing this, but they would’ve gone to the tree anyway).

Basically, prioritizing which cubs you protect and being sure to play with them all daily makes broodmothers fairly obsolete even with hundreds of cubs (although I admit it would be a little tedious to keep up with). My advice would be try to have as many nurturing broodmothers as possible, protect the important cubs, and maybe invest in FAPA if possible if there’s going to be a lot of cubs.

Thanks for explaining!

My counter is, the problem is that you lost those two cubs. I get nearly all of my SB from selling cubs that I myself don't want to keep so I don't want to take the chance of ny of them dying!

Not to mention how tedious playing with all those cubs can get! I don't have the money to get FAPA either so I can't do that. Plus, I don't play often enough to want to do something like that and my time on the game is short as is because of my busy life.

Another point I have is nurturing lionesses aren't all that easy to come by. I only have four, and that's from buying two and breeding two out of 55 lions (females only). 4 out of 55 aren't great odds, especially when I had to buy 2. Plus, I'm not even keeping one because it's not up to my standard of lion, which for people with small territories who can't buy more,it's important to only keep the ones that are wanted and liked.

Again, thanks for explaining! I hope this explains my view too!

On the note of losing the cubs I will say that I made no effort to protect them given they were unimportant and headed to the tree. Had I protected them for even a day, that would have been enough to keep them alive.

You make some good points, but I still can’t support when there are ways to keep cubs alive without broodmothers.

Alrighty, thanks again!

I'm sure I won't change your mind, you seem pretty adamant, but I'll add this, what's the harm in making something a tad less hard because adding one cub every few levels (cause if the admins think 2-3 levels is still OP they can still up it) isn't really imbalancing anything, plus it'd be pretty natural even in a real situation, the more something (in this case a lion) does something (babysits) the better it gets at it and the more it can take on!

I'll support, but I think there should be a cap somewhere, like maybe 10 cubs maximum? It would be all too easy to level a lioness up with hunting before having her protect upwards of 30 cubs.

I support with the cap idea. I have 42 territory, and 5 broodmothers. I don’t often keep cubs I don’t like or don’t fit my projects but it would be nice to not have to struggle in case I do somehow keep more than those amounts of cubs. Like I mass breed NCLs a lot lately. I’m having 26 cubs born TOMORROW. In one day. What happens if I like all of them? I can’t protect them all cause I have previous cubs protected as well. So, support here.

I have never had more then like... 50 cubs at a time XD

With 40 territory


You van have a broodmother per 10 territory from my knowledge...

If you have 200 cubs.. You probs have a lot of territory. Therefore more broodmothers.

"Level just as they usually do"
That dont work. Females level up by hunting. Broodmothers cant hunt. They dont level up.
