First to all complaining, this is selectable and optional at game start so, that's that. it's cool.
Second, i haven't read all the replies in this thread yet,, so sorry in advance if something was already mentioned..
all these changes, as all changes in any other game imply a different gameplay style, so I'm cool with trying them out, althought, personally I'd mostly stick to classic gameplay
now for the feedback:
-Knights i haven't done a thorough test of these but does autoheal really help the knights even out vs lusted ogres?
How about give slow spell to knights ?
no, giving knights more default speed than ogres (someone mentioned it) would make them definetly OP , gameplay would drastically change, the knights would become the raiders and map dominators while the lusted ogres would need to become the goldflow guard protectors.... this is a definetly no.
maybe if it was like a new spell where it costed mana for a sprint, maybe....
Catapults/Ballistasagain, haven't tested but repairing cats and ballistas sounds OP, , I can see this becoming more of a war of who pumps and sends more peons to repair....it's taking out the intrinsic value of the catapult/ballista.......
i'd agree if the repairing takes a lot of time, like the peon repairs 1hitpoint per 2 seconds or something like that and only 1 peon allowed to repair at a time....
the tower selecting target sounds fun and adds cool gameplay. props
- someone mentioned and I agree would be nice something to be done to get archers more into gameplay althought I cant think of anything that doesn't make them too op...
here's a new one.
is an allied resource transfer something doable? if so, apply but with restrictions. resource receiving aplicable only to allied players who reached castle/fort. and with a penalty, like take 50% of the resource transfered. (Kind of like adding some extra teamwork _dead player revival_ gameplay without it becoming an exploitable gameplay where one player does all the wood the other does all the gold n shit..
