Conquer Club

Anyone think we can pull this off on CC?

Here's the basic premise: It's a rail game where you draw your own rail lines across whichever continent you're on. There are various impassables, such as mountains and Rivers which hinder you. Bonuses are for connecting cities and transporting resources.

How to take it to CC: I'm thinking a hex map with resources points at cities. Bonuses exist for connecting cities. Perhaps there could be two types of cities, major cities and minor ones. The major cities would be starting points and the minor cities when coupled with a major city yield a bonus... the farther away the city the higher the bonus. Victory is attained by a rather hostile takeover of other players rail lines.

I like it. Let's see a draft!

Yeah, this looks cool. My worry is, aren't there multiple ways to connect City A to City B? How will the xml work for that? And what continent(s) were you thinking of including?
Anyways, this looks freakin' shweet and is the true "build your own bonus", as it seems.

Yes, I also worry about XML size. If a bonus is "connect territory a to territory b" then you have to code in all the possible ways to connect these two territories...

Could put connector spots between cities that you have to go through to connect cities. Could lessen the XML but not sure how itd go over

IH, what happened to this?!? I'm eagerly awaiting a digital draft!!

-Sully

I was just throwing the idea out there... I'm probably not gonna do it.

Tears and sadness, IH

No guarantees, but you think I could take over the project? I think I have an idea as to how it can work.

-Sully

Sure, i never made any claims to the idea... it was more of an idea discussion. Go for it. I think its a good concept that will do CC well.

Okay! I'll see if I can make this work with the tools I have...
