What do you think about the bond system?

The bond system is useful and the gameplay balance is good.

It has been improved since his posted the comments.

If you still find the increments too small, you could right-click on the [+] button.

Is it also possible to max out or start at 5% for the stock purchase percentage of global company stocks?

One thing I’ve noted is that one way to exploit the new system is to take over a company and then load them up with as much bond debt as the system will allow. Then just transfer those funds to a subsidiary and then buy the subsidiary. The company you took over is now loaded with debt and eventually they will go bankrupt.

My suggested remedy is that when bonds are issued that a cash restriction is placed on the issuing company. I think having annual debt covenants to meet would make the game interesting and add a level of difficulty.
