Can the minimum amount of an actual group (50 units) be lowered?

its bin that way for 5 years for a reason.
You seem to be asking for all the minimum requirements to be lowered, while a lot of the other players seem in favour of trying to make things a little longer/harder.

as it is, 50 hawks is nothing...

Imagine if people just started sending a single hawk at each other while they were offline... :P

Hmm... The reason being?

Anyways,

1) This isn't a bug, this is a suggestion

and

2) The minimum of 50 units will stay in place for round 2.

I thought I'd already moved this lol, my bad.

The reason being is that its overly annoying to defend against fleets as futile as something like 10 hawks. It's already a hassle defending against 50 hawks. If I had my way it would be a 1k unit minimum... ooo the possibilities...

1k seems overkill. I'm thinking about removing the cap and bringing back carriers next round.

You know the original reason for the 50 unit minimum?

Memory can't.... fail... me... now...  >:(

Carriers do sound familiar but from a loooong time ago. 1k is slightly overkill, but it ensures that even cowards can have their units culled.

Win, not everyone has ridiculously perfect CW-related memories like you... :P

Carriers could be interesting. I joined just after they were removed, along with a couple of other ships... the 'worm' or something? Might have just made that one up.
