Topic: 1 vs 1 Tournament Posted: 18 Mar 2011 at 23:09 |

As aside I believe The old tournament points still ignore NAPs as per the tournament so players outside of alliances can do battle there. (They are marked as Epic Battle sites on UI2, and are on the 500 coordinates)

Hora, your edited comments fall in line with my thinking...it's a sandbox and it it should be easy enough to find like minded folks to play the way you want. All you gotta do is ask around.
But those that complain about peace are NEVER asking for enemies, instead they are complaining about the enemies they already have and seeking peace. Which is whacko to me!

Oh, sorry, my brain started interpreting stuff again without my thinking...  But wouldn't such ads lead to such battles, although there might be very few, like you said? Perhaps the little update on my post hits it better?

Hora, you fail to get my point...anyone that wants a war now (ie, dislikes the generally peaceful environment) can find a war easy enough by putting up a "Enemy Wanted" ad. That cures the ugly problem of peace that BtB complained about.
We will see exactly how many alliances are upset with peace by watching all the eager alliances rush to post their ads. My bet is that few, if any, are interested in being in a war.

Brought it upwards the forum again, as it was mentioned recently

Huh?
You were recently crying here on the forum about how Aesir armies
are attacking you. Is that Diplomatic Inertia? It sure sounded like
you wanted to degrade Illy a little and have those attacks end for you.
So what I take from this is that you like war in Illy, just so long as
you are not on the receiving end of it.
There are a few players that complain about the generally peaceful
environment of Illy. I gotta figure that if there are really enough
folks dissatisfied with peace, that war would have already broken out.
For example, Dark Blight and Eternal Champs apprear to still be slugging
it out.
For those that have failed to find a war that they like, I
recommend posting a thread on this forum ("Enemy Wanted") and set forth
the type of war you would like:
- Total Annihilation
- First Alliance Capital to be razed/captured loses
- First Alliance City to be razed/captured loses
- No sieges, but all else for a set time period (eg: 4 weeks).
- Or, whatever victory conditions that you desire.
Surely there would be some alliance interested in striking terms with you and your boredom would be relieved. |
The (very,very great  ) tournament already covered parts of that ideas... I myself wouldn't go in for a sieging battle just out of fun, but hey!, there are people around who might like it (some like it hot  ...) And in the meantime, players also can arrange such things without firm framework, it's a sandbox after all. We can hit those other baby-buggers in the box with our pink building forms until they cry, while our parents don't watch  ...

if an army is too large , it simply bounces off.
that way large player could play against small players since units number is what maters, not city size. the down side could be that a large player could directly attack a small player in his home town to prevent them from sending troops to the flag. but then that would happen with any type of rules.
a cool feature would be to have a colored flag in the hand of the caracter's image in your profil if you occupy a flag, or if you won the contest you'd keep the flag on your profil until next tournament...

You forget that big players have high level commanders. So if a flag limits the military units to 500 units. The bigger player will still have the best chance to win agianst a small player who wants to compete for that same flag. |
