There has already been military groups formed within each city and I was wondering when troops will be in lusternia or will they be left out?

I didn't think warfare worked like that here.
Unknown2004-12-02 22:20:06
I'm curious because how would major military work here? will there be troops and ships used in combat or will it be rather different?

Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease don't implement Aetolia's military system. I hated it, there was absolutely no tactics involved. If I want to fight a damned war against someone with more numbers and better troops then me, all I was able to do was run straight at the enemy, not flank them or surrond them (not sure how I'd do that when they have superior numbers), or lure them away to pincer them.

The warfare system of Aetolia wasn't so bad. Would you prefer that, or having to fight wars/capture land yourself via PKing? I guess there could be a few things added, like you suggested.

I agree, a more of a stategy type thing with the troops and ships would be wonderful. But you can only go so far in computer coding and I doubt we could get a real life military type strategy but It would be nice if the two cities and commune had armies because it already started that the dracanri city (can't spell the name) had a military force and so did the other one

Neither of you were commanders during the Loch - Ashtan war.

of course, I was in the SHallam/Enorian Military so I was eating some popcorn while both loch and ashtan were killing each other but I knew enough about how the military strategy and other things. thanks to military leaders

Enorian was involved in the most recent one, as was Duiran. I did command a few troops.
Silvanus2004-12-02 22:30:27
You never actually moved troops around, or went into battle or went into the strain of pulling 15 hours only to wake up 10 hours later and see the work you did was reversed. Repeat that over 3 months and you have the reason why half of Bloodloch is gone.

hey... I was agreeing with you.. stop picking on me! fine. I will disagree with you for now on!
Unknown2004-12-02 22:32:15
I think when I said, "I did command a few troops" kind of implies that I DID move troops around. Although I didn't quite get as involved in the latter bits. I salute you for doing it, though.
Silvanus2004-12-02 22:33:15
The one with Enorian invading Ashtan (It was named Shallam during the war, Enorian after the war) was not even a war. It was a Coup. YOu didn't have to fight Spokry and Co.

If you also happen to notice, we posted at the same time and I did not see you post.

The point of this topic was giving ideas for a military type system and possible troops for each city and commune. Can we please end the discussion about what happen in Aetolia? Though I do agree that a new type of military system would help us alot. and ships too!

Make troops be able to do more then one attack:

Like, Flank, but if you Flank then your enemy could respond to it (like a 3 minute period to respond) where it'd just be a head on attack.

Surround - If you control the area infront of and behind troops, you can surrond the troops.

I didn't notice, I'm sorry. I'm far too laggy.

I can't actually remember which one you mean...gah, it's been so long. I wish each one had a specific name. ¬_¬

The big one that everyone got frustrated with. Slyphe, Bloodloch, Enorian, Haern vs. Ashtan. A lot of people got pissed off with it because it was going nowhere and everyone just kept dying. Everyone had reason to be annoyed. It went nowhere.

You missed the point of this topic, iggy, shamee... I said the point of this topic is to give ideas about a new military system like Silvanus has done or possible troops or ships...!
Unknown2004-12-02 22:47:31
Archers, Spearmen, rockthrowers, axethrowers. just a little ideas for new type of troops. and for ships

well, every military ship we can think of!!

They'd have to be city oriented.

A horde of Demon Spawns are milling about here.

Probe Spawn

A hord of Demon Spawns were crafted from the deepest caverns of Nil by the powerful dark magic of the Nihilists. These Demon Spawns are armed with spears that raise high up into the air.

I agree that every type of military soldier should be city oriented and I like that example. Very cool, Silvanus.
