Base, towers, Fortress or Outpost

Post by Paez55 »

I've been watching the games posted on Youtube. I was thinking that it would be a good idea to have a Base, tower, Fortress or Outpost. In some parts of your world expansion. Or is it that I just do not see them yet? Since the games are in a early stage? A base where you could created a garrison.
It is a great game. Keep the good work.

I like this idea. It fits in quite nicely with the lore of the game too. What would add great flavoured be the ability to name such forward bases...."Fort Apache" anyone [;)]

Nothing I have seen so far suggests fortifications of any kind are in game as yet though. The entrenchment bonuses I guess are meant to represent increasingly fortified positions.

Yeah I agree. A lot of interesting (and very interesting) stuff is still on the drawing table for later addition.

Best wishes,
Vic

This game looks absolutely amazing !! Hope the development will continue even after release with always more features, even if this means paying for DLCs.
Can't wait for release ! [&o][&o][&o]

This is really encouraging.

Not sure if such a possibility already exists in the game but I think given the competing military factions within both player and AI factions the possibility of a coup by the minority faction could be an interesting depending on circumstances. Maybe being in a "Time of Revolution" combined with a disillusioned faction and having no loyal troop commanders in the Capital ?

In any case its a fascinating game replete with possibilities.

I like this idea as well. It'd certainly provide some extra challenge on maps where it might seem like you're just ROFL-stomping your way to victory

Thanks Vic. You did a great game. Looking forward to any additions. I was also thinking that there should be the ability to hire Mercenary Groups or Armies. And they should look and be arm a la Mad Max. It would give it flavor. Just a suggestion for the Role play factor. Maybe even an expansion where your government is a rebel bandit type. Any ways I;m just digressing. Very well done game.

Guard towers, Observation Posts, Defence turrets. Some sort of border control.
