Has anyone every thought, that during a game that they are losing, it would be nice to have the option to cash a set for flat rate or nuclear?

So what's the new spoils? Changing spoils or having the option to do any?

Yeah, people have thought this. It would be cool to have the option to switch a set to different things mid-game.
I think there's currently a suggestion out there to switch spoils randomly, but I think what you're suggesting is non-randomly.
In any case,
MOVED to the Suggestions forum.

would everyone have to agree on this? how many times could each player change the spoils? would you choose before you cashed? that seems like it would be the coolest/most game changing thing. however, i feel there are way too many options on the site and truly feel that is a huge reason for the decline. good luck with this. i look forward to you fully outlining/fleshing this out...-Jn

I have not played 2 player games very much.
But have developed a likeness for "Promontory Summit".
The thought occoured to me when someone was ahead of their opponent enough that the finish was futile.
Especially in round limited games.
During the game play, I would have preferred the "Nuclear" option instead of the "Flat Rate" at which we were playing.
Also playing, 4 player, Egypt: Lower , Nuclear, Fog. Having the option also came to mind (especially when forced to Nuke myself).
Having a set and owning 3 territories, I would have preferred to cash as Flat Rate.
The option would be in the "Start Games" menu.
Under "Reinforcement" it would list as: Flexible (Flat Rate or Nuclear)
Each player would have the option to cash in as Flat Rate or Nuclear at the time of the cash.
I do not think it would play very well on most games with 3 or more player, nor with the "Escalating " option.

Is it possible to change Nuclear option that only kills 1 tert to
a single card in the deck for Nuclear that annihilate's every tert your opponents
own?

Yes, they will call it the Mageplunka option, in honor of what he did to you in CL8.
