Propagand War

Concise description:

Thoughts for a "propaganda bonus" cash in

Specifics/Details:

when cashing in cards could it be possible to make a gameplay where you got a bonus equivilant to the number of armies currently occupying the territories of the cards you have cashed in (possibly exluding any territories that are owned by yourself)

How this will benefit the site and/or other comments:

It occured to me after playing the nuclear setting that a game type could be made similar using a propaganda type of theme.

We know that propaganda can be a useful tactic during any war/ even battle, and it seemed that using the card cash in method could add a new twist of strategy and luck to most of the maps. Obviously some of the smaller ones might be a problem with a person getting too many armies too soon, but then again perhaps it wont.

I would suggest making it a stetting indepents of the card setting (similar to fog of war) so that the bonus could be in addition to either escalating, nuuclear, flat, or no spoils bonus's, but I am not versed in the intiricacies this might entail, and perhaps it would be eiser to start with just the propaganda setting.

Lastly I sincerely hope I did this correctly. I think I went though properly, and if my words were typed or stated in a confusing or unclear way I appologize. I have never offered any suggestion before, and am not entirely sure if this an idea worthy of posting, but I decided that the worst tha tcould happen is the idea would not be thought good enough , and there isnt really any harm in that.

If you have any thoughts on this however feel free to let me know

jakegreer,

This suggestion is indeed in the correct format. I would point out that it is unlikely this would be added as an alternate option along side Fog of War; if it affects the spoils, it should stay under spoils options. I know that you would want to try this for any type of spoils settings, but a more realistic thing is to pick one of those options (escalating, flat, no spoils) to add this to. If enough people liked it, we could always reconsider adding more later.

Sometimes suggestions in here are interesting options but we simply don't have enough time to implement all of them. If this suggestion is not submitted, please do not take it personally, we just have to choose the ones that impact the greatest number of people.

Hmmmm, To me this looks like a cool idea, if it was it's own separate card option. Would be a card type based on luck though, so it probably wouldn't get too many people playing it.
