Land Wars 10: Return of the King(doms)

Looks chill. I'm ok with everything.

Just sent conman my army and map. I'm doing a kingdom based on my avatar.

I am consideting joining...but it sounds really complicated.

I see what you did there (in the title).

It really isn't! Once you get a hold of the concepts, the game is easy to play. Now, beating your enemies is going to be the hard part.

Basically, the game boils down to building up your army through projects and unit recruitment, with the object being to defeat your enemies. Only until you declare an attack (or if you have to defend your base!) do you have to worry about all the number crunching, but even then you're going to have help from your opponent and the war mod (each battle has to be judged).

We'd love to have you if you joined! 5 is pretty much the perfect number of players

Ok, so to declare war I PM the person I want to chalenge?

No, you make a post in the game thread (this one) with your attack strategy. Then, your opponent counters with a defense strategy and the war mod determines the results.

I am interested.
But maybe I'll just subscribe to this thread to follow the game and know more on it so I can participate in the next Land Wars. I shall confirm my participation later.

Eldir and Iron Fist: Here's a link to the previous incarnation of this game. A few of the rules are different, however you can still glance through and get a feeling for how the game works. We'd love to have you.

I will join, but you have to wait for the kingdom map.

But...get ready to be conquered.

A question: Would it be Ok to have fewer, really powerful soldiers? Like, instead of 200 humans I could have 20 dragons, recruit at 1/10 the rate, etc.

^I think that's what hero units are for.

I don't think 20 dragons against anything but another dragon would be fair. This isn't Skyrim.

^ It would be twenty dragons against two hundred humans. Maybe even only ten dragons. But yeah, you're probably right.

My turtleman defensive army should be in at some point tomorrow.

I myself wouldn't mind HIKER's suggested dragon army, but that's up to Conman to decide. Your other suggestion sounds interesting as well. Conman's basically gonna be the official referre grandmaster for this game (even though in the Landwars many decisions on official matters are often made via group consensus)

I say, hold off on the dragon ♥♥♥♥ until the next round. I have plans for a spinoff game with slightly different rules later down the road, in which that will DEFINITELY be possible

in fact

ANYTHING will be possible

get the ♥♥♥♥ on conman

... I was about to ask if I could make a wyvern rider army xD

I don't know if that would be approved, seeing as past landwars have proven that air-specific armies to have very shallow strategies (it always just ends up in a huge carpet bombing)

i see no inherent problem with including wyvern riders into your army - i plan an creating an aerial force as well

It's up to conman ultimately to determine if large air forces are fair.

We'll see if he ever logs on...

Alright let's wait for Conman. I won't be able to enter my army and map right now anyway, I'm kind of busy. If conman doesn't come back maybe I'll have the time to.

Did you mean something like "We'd like to conquer you kindoms" ?

Umm. . . .no. . . .uh, well that is the point is conquest. . . . .but. . . .ummm. . . . . .

If Conman doesn't post in this thread by the first week of August, I'm going to go ahead and start up Kingdoms of Conquest.

For those of you who don't know, KoC will be a game very similar to the land wars, albeit with greater depth to the game mechanics.
