*Shrugs*

Its either a map-based system or auto-resolution. With auto-resolution were talking about moving back towards KoC's level of skill.... You'll be coding it, its your call.

Hmmm, well I can always look at doing AI stuff, but it depends how good I am at it. I didn't do particularly well in my PAINN module last year. :mellow:

I think for the moment if we just look at doing auto-resolution, we can always sub in a map system at a later date... assumine we code things properly (modular) which I will ensure is done. Smiley

Hmmm :/

So... we're talking using abilities when you decide to fight?

IE: You click on the attack empire button, and get taken to a strategy screen?

Your head is broken.

Instead of using a map, which is hard, or just instantly generating attack results, which is crap, we go half way.

When you attack an enemy zone, you get taken to a screen where you designate tactics for each of your units, then submit the tactics and it generates the battle.

good idea. but hey, remember, we cant make it too complicated. the reason that KOC was fun for all ages was that it was simple enough for younger people to grasp but still had strategy behind it.

Stratagy?! Where?! All I've seen is: get attack points. Attack foe. Win/lose. Gain money. Improve attack. Repeat process.

well, i mean the smaller stuff. spying, getting the proper attack/all purpose/defence soldier ratio, finding a good attack/defence ration and sticking to it, finding the right people to attack, using the right number of attack turns for what u wanna do (money or soldiers). u know, that stuff was the slightly more advanced stuff.

Thats not really stratagy at all. Stratagy is like when you plan massive attacks on foes. What you are describing is preparation. Tongue

no, only the people who master those things make it too the top. u never see some guy with 100% guys on all purpose attacking people at random make it 2 the top.

But its still not stratagy. Shocked I remeber when there wasn't even things other than all purpose. People made it into the top ten then. I guess if someone really tried they could do it. Its more like common sense more than anything.

May I remind you that most of the Top 10 are so idle its not even funny?

We're trying to create somehting that people will play, but wont have everybody nder the sun playing it.

KoC's downfall is that it has too many users because its too simple[/i]

When you get a game thats very very easy to play and is based on passing a link to your friends... problems arise, and you get all the wrong kinds of people joining, and trying to exploit the game by cheating.

I agree! Plus, KoC has freakish coding. When they do something 'good' for us its: Oh! Lets start the next age so we can fix all these armies with hundreds more men, then ignore all their opnions and such.
