Three Ideas--Would need Developers to Implement

[paradoxharbinger]

i think it would be sweet to see the randomization feature on commanders in general

You can do that if you want. Leif and I did alot of randomizing in Dom2. I had programs to create random map scenarios (random AI's, random alliances between them, random monsters on the maps). And Leif came up with some that randomized mods.

Basically you create a script or program to randomize elements of the mod between playings.

Hit points-don't forget about randomized hit points!

These are excellent-the Tien'Chi random hero reminds me of that tavern scene in Crouching Tiger-Hidden Dragon, where the girl with the green dragon blade confronts all the different heroes. All the heroes are different-there are two huge guys armed with maces, a drunkard priest armed with an iron staff, all sorts of characters-and each one, for atleast a brief moment, IS a CHARACTER! It's great, and this kind of thing would add a lot. How about a feature where there's a small chance that more than one hero may show up, like you might get twin brothers or a romantic couple, or even three crazy red-haired brothers armed with axes who's mother (you get her too) is a witch?
