Game mechanics

Post by L4cus »

This game will count with some differences from others aogames
● 2 kind of towns (cities and villages)
● 3 types of attacks, 3 types of armours (melee, pierce, crush)
● upkeep: similar to population limit, different units have different upkeep, u raise with ports, factories, markets, banks, etc.

Idk if all this is possible. I dont have codding capabilities...
I have seen similar topics at aoe(houses give population) and aof(magic attack and "armor")

- please plan with 2 kind of attack and the spell/ablility thing that can be deflected by spell resistance setting (we can call these any name tough)
- also you can have one type of TC to be randomly generated - however in campaign yes, you can make differen appearance / unit types for TC-s.
- also there is no upkeep thing (except mercenary like) - also i dont suggest it either as it can be an unnecessary pain to keep in mind the upkeep :)
please think within the current game engine possibilities.

Town development: Tc will have upgrade techs for that tc only to make it better. E.g. wall= Increase unit in it defense by 1. The town would start as village maybe and will be upgraded up to industrialized city perhaps.
General: Have different tactics to choose from. Each tactics will buff and debuff certain stats. Usually general units have 2 actions. Generals work like stronger caster but the allied unit who is applied will also gain some debuff. Since this era battles all about formation, generals are important to reflect that.

Hmm... Good idea and @Stratego (dev) is a way how to spawn in random maps tc that has different level? Or for example upgraded tc if player who create a room change something in room settings?

the second suggestion: officers make comand abilities to improve stats deppending on the formation like an aura
the sprite doesnt change, only the stats. something like the unit chose the aura (square formation, block formation, etc)

I think not, because we can change only Assets file (content) and dont change game engine... So... Not...
