    Plunder

    Have plunder take soldiers also. Soldiers are a resource and there are so many abandoned provs. Would help new startups most.
    The more soldiers a prov has the more get plundered.
    if its in the game... I like Bishop. I don't care what my Mommy says about him.

    Soldiers are not a resource, they're very clearly a military unit.

    Let's not make game changes which encourage farms.

    I doubt anything would encourage farms. We have stolen from, then killed 3 this week.
    What about pheasants? They can defend with TW so are they military or resource?

    Lots of things occur w/o buildings. Gold, Food, Peasants. Not sure about runes as I have never had 0 towers.

    edit: Peasants are resource as they are not bought but Produced by acres just like Gold and Food.

    I think you're asking questions that belong in an entirely different forum.
    And I think you should refrain from making suggestions until you move away from making ridiculous statements like "I doubt anything would encourage farms. W have stolen from then killed 3 this week."

    Thanx Chris for a real reply.
    U 2 Pills as your first post was accurate and on point.

    Its clear my 2nd question was in response to Chris. I meant Farms are already too numerous to "encourage" more.

    You are not my personal MOD, or a dev. I will post suggestions whenever I like. Your 2nd post is the only ridiculous statement in this thread. I made a suggestion, you made a statement. My "question" was rhetorical as I don't care what you think.


    I believe plunder needs enhancement and Peasants would be swell.

    Peasants are a clear resource as they are not bought, but produced.

    Of course it is still possible to encourage more farms though, regardless of how many there currently are.

    I can see a bit more value in plundering peasants than plundering soldiers, but the only times I can imagine potentially using it (having considered it only for 30 seconds so you are welcome to tell me some things I haven't thought of) are (a) OOP and (b) during war. At OOP I think it would encourage farms. Making plunder take peasants during war only might be interesting (I'm not sure how I feel about it but I can see interesting game play angles).

    ps and maybe (c) some niche strat using orc on max draft to feed the rest of the KD OOW.

    Some day you will grow up and make your Mom proud.

    I believe plunder needs enhancement and Peasants would be swell. Its great how You and umaj run in a pair.

    Peasants are a clear resource as they are not bought, but produced.


    edit: I must admit Pheasant was bait. I thought Pills would respond, instead I got a bargain with 2 for one.
    Pills, You should tie your old dog umaj up on the porch. He is too old and slow to run with the Big Dogs.
    Do you, Pills, still live in your Mom's basement playing on an old HP?
    You cant be married as no women would live with such a bitter Pill.
    Reported for 1) Baiting 2) Personal attacks

    Your idea is bad.
    Soldiers are not a resource, they're a unit. Resources are generated free-of-cost by your province. Peasants populate freely. Gold is produced freely. Bushels freely. Runes, too, provided you build towers. (And I guess if you have zero barren land you need farms).

    Soldiers do not share this commonality. It is impossible for you to halt 'production' of any resource (buildings aside), but soldiers operate on a whole different mechanism. First of all, soldiers are purchased, not generated or produced. Second of all, their cost of purchase is two (2) resources - gold and peasants. Next, you're able to halt creation of soldiers by altering your draft rate.

    Next is of course the fact that soldiers are clearly a military unit, because they've got intrinsic offensive and defensive values (unlike peasants) and are capable of being sent out on attack.

    Lastly, consider that soldiers are subject to Propaganda, an op that targets units like: Thieves, wizards, specialists, elites, and soldiers.

    Next, roflmao @ the idea that nothing can be done to encourage farms. I can think of a dozen changes off the top of my head that would encourage them.

    Bad idea, bad understanding of the game, wrong forum to learn and ask questions in.

    @Pills, Thanx for posting my repy to you for EVERYBODY to see as Palem deleted the good stuff..

    I changed my suggestion for Plunder enhancement to Peasants in my 3rd post, but you were so eager to be negative you did not notice.

    I even agree with you soldiers are Military, and you did not notice.

    Then you agree with me: Pills types: Second of all, their [soldiers] cost of purchase is two (2) resources - gold and peasants.
    Peasants are a resource. ROFLMAO

    Nothing against the rules in what I said. I said your statement was ridiculous, not you.

    Peasants in plunder is retarded as well. In fact, it is even stupider than soldiers in plunder.

    I will come back later to explain in length why.

    And 'Peasants would be swell as well' is hardly updating your suggestion. It's 5 words in a post that got edited to **** for breaking the rules.

    I can't take your statements regarding soldiers as evidence you understand, given the ignorance of many of your statements so far, hence the long post.

    I'll continue to educate you, amicably, for as long as your posts deserve it.

    Nothing

    You are welcome to post as I have no fear of a wicked tongue. Nothing you post is smart enough to harm me. Nothing you post scares me. You Obfuscate with semantics. I understand your post. Saying things in 3rd person does not make them safe. Evil permeates every thought. You "educate" only your old buddies. You Play with Korp because Nobody else will have you. To swallow steel is impossible.
    U R NOTHING

    retarded? what a ham.

    Guess moderation went right out the window again. Dont call people retards. That warrants banning (i know from experience). Play nice and clean it up ladies!

    If anyone is interested in talking about the suggestion, that'd be swell.
