Wish-List for Dominions 4

[Cor]

three more requests.
-Dismiss button, to get rid of old troops.

- Better scripting for afflictions. a Wyrm should never have a limp.

- national artifacts. specific to nations, just like the spells.

Inspired by the "dud nations" thread.
More effects for weapons. a pike is very different than a spear. Make them do diffrent things. Spys and assasins should be armed with stilettos (ap) not daggers.

[HoneyBadger]

Yeah, that's true-a dagger is a noble's weapon, you use them to finish off your heavily armored opponent after you've knocked him to the ground/senseless, by finding a weakspot in his armor.

I could probably find a dozen different names for fighting-knives, but yes, assassins are going to be relatively poor, and daggers were quite expensive-no reason to use them when you can use something cheap you can discard if you have to.

I'm not sure that state-sponsored assassins would be poor. They're the James Bonds of Dominions. Not that I have any particular opinion or knowledge on what weapons they should have.

[HoneyBadger]

State-sponsored or not, would you shoot someone with a crossbow made of solid gold when you could just use a chrome-plated .38? Daggers were EXPENSIVE, flashy, and not the best tool for the job. It's as simple and profound as that.

If you have any questions though, I'd be happy to answer them.

Three more Ideas:

1)How About "templates" that would be added on to units who survive encounters with infectious units.

For example, my heavy infantry is hit by a drain life from a vampire, but survives combat. That unit should have a chance of becoming a vampire, I.E. have a "vampire template" added on. Making it undead adding a drain life attack and strength. Same for werewolves, possibly ghouls and some others.

But I would love to be able to add templates to Pretenders during creation. What If I want to play a Vampire Medusa?

2)How about more than one generic disease? There could be diseases that could have short term benefits. Example:“Red Fever” adds to strength and attack and subtracts from defense and HP every round. There could be diseases that are non-fatal as well. How about “The Madness” any unit effected with this disease would attack the nearest unit in combat.


3)There should be a new ability “Immune to disease”, or maybe it would be part of a dominion of the god. I like the idea in D&D that Paladins are immune to diseases because their god is protecting them.
