Suggestion: new game type

Post by Halmir »

Concise description:
  • Change current bonus given by each set of cards in a new game type of Extreme Mode
Specifics:
  • such that 3 x Red = 20% extra of your total normal territory and country bonus
  • 3 x Green = 40%
  • 3 x Blue = 80%
  • A Rainbow = 160%
This will improve the following aspects of the site:
  • A new game type where the challenge comes from hoarding your cards and deploying at the crucial moment once you have got a good bonus already, to go for a swift kill
  • It's in everyone's interest to ALWAYS attack the enemies to minimise their bonus each round, this should minimise camping and dithering

I like the idea of a new type of spoils but % wouldn't work for some bonuses...

great idea... but i think that the difference between 20% and 160% is way to extreme... it would basically end the game... especially in smaller games.

This would escalate faster than escalating, because once you eliminate someone you get more cards and your bonus presumably gets much bigger as well. It would probably make it much easier to take over big maps, because you would get huge bonuses from the cards for holding regions that no one had a chance to conquer from you.

BUT I think its interesting and I would like to see the idea develop more. I think the current percentages are too varied though as already stated. You can't always control getting all reds or getting a rainbow, so I wouldn't have them vary more than the current flat rate sets.

ie
red- 40%
green- 60%
blue- 80%
rainbow- 100%
