Group Size to 12 instead of 10

25 votes

A group size of 12 allows for a better breakdown of creature group value (creature group value being the 5 for Sarcosuchus, 5 for Spinosaurus, 3 for Daspletosaurus)

10 is divisible by 10,5,1
12 is divisible by 12,6,4,3,2,1 allowing for groups to be broken down into better segments. For example a group of 10 Deinonychus is equivalent to 2 Spinosaurus
With 12 group points the Spinosaurus could be 6 points each and Deinonychus staying at 1 point allows for group size of 12 Deinonychus - 2 Spinosaurus.

It also gives some breathing room for creatures who are priced similarly but are of significant size/ power proportions like the Daspletosaurus - Suchomimus

This may be more important in the future with many more creatures released and the issue of x creature should not cost the same in a group as y creature

This would be good since there are a lot of megapacks/herds anyways. just making it legal to have a bigger group. I think it would help the mid tier herbies which are 3 slots so you can have four in a herd to better counter apexes (both herbie and carnie apexes).

If you have a full group of the same species, get a recovery bonus.

Any symbiotic group gets a smaller kind of bonus. (Two different species)

It would make the world more realistic and immersive because people would want the bonus.
