Future plans?
Posted: 14 Jul 2010, 12:43
Hello and a big thank you for creating a remake of my all time favourite game. The enhancements you have made have improved the game no end. It is hard to believe that the original is over 20 years old!
What are your future plans for the game? Adding optional rules/improvements to the custom AI?
Ideas
Having a different price and attack/defence factor for each army/navy has always been a big part of the original game but I have always wondered what it would be like to play with a level playing field (price and attack/defence factors all the same). Is this something you have considered, perhaps as an optional rule change?
One additional element for the game could be research. Implemented in the same way as with the WW2 game Strategic Command. Purchasing research points gives you a 1 in 6 chance of improving the attack and defence values for your army/navy. (The more points you buy the greater the chance of success). I can explain in more detail if this is something you might consider implementing.
Another option would be the implementation of air power. Probably goes against the current model and period of history but could be very interesting.
Thanks for all your effort and apologies if I am getting carried away.
