Alright fair enough then. Maybe it would be good to implement with the faction AI.

Are you really saying they need to outgrow such numbers?

I kinda find it a little drastic. If you have many troops to spend - slam them into someone with a similar amount and get the xp. Why make it harder for the smaller players to have a little fun?


That is not at all what I am suggesting. I am requesting ADDITIONAL NPC sizes (on the upside). This does nothing except simply assist the larger players.

No doubt that was back when huge players were uncommon.

I seem to recall one of the GMs stating there were much larger NPC armies but were removed. I can't remember why but I think it was because almost no one would attack them.

The spawns of newer and larger NPCs should also be in places where the population is higher, so people with a large enough army don't have to look 300 squares for an army that is big enough for them to fight.
