Default Re: Will there be leaders/heroes??

I wouldn’t want to see heros per se, but rather commanders. Their effect should be small, in the area of a few percentage points. Keeping track of commanders on individual ships would be too much, but one commander per fleet would work.

Yeah, commanders per Fleet would be an alternative. But how to handle it?? I often create fleets and dismiss them. the fleetcommander should have his own ship. So it would take time, that he can meet a fleet he is assigned to.

Other ideas??

Greetings

Jochen

Howdy right back at ya!

Simply add an option when creating a fleet as to whether or not to add a commander. When a fleet is intended for a long term grouping, a special commander could be added from a limited pool of Imperial Admirals. For those fleets which are temporary in nature, a default standard commander would be in charge. Perhaps each race could have a default setting, which could be based on race, number of military training grounds, etc. This could also affect the number of unique commanders generated.
