I see blitz is climbing up the 3000s on the board. So when he/she or some1 else gets to 4000, Is there going to be a new rank such as admiral or corporal?

Check out suggestions and bug reports

Corporal?

What the f*ck?

its a military rank.. between pvt and sgt.

No shit. Hence my "what the f*ck?" Why would the next step AFTER general be corporal? Is hendy retarded?

I think he meant insert them in where they go and bump everything up.

Ignoring his complete disregard for common notions of grammar and syntax, it sure seems like he is advocating a new rank *at* 4000.

What about ...... "Bush" ??

how bout Dictator of the World?

LMAO!!!! Welcome to Hendy's world!

After General there is a Marshal (Field Marshal or Grand Admiral, but there are no Naval forces here).

The highest rank there is a Generalissimo or Generalissimus only subordinated to the Sovereign.

Often in the English language come to refer to a military officer who has obtained political power by a military coup.

There were only 35 people of this rank in the world. But there were not many who actually deserve it by their military skills (in my opinion):
George Washington
Aleksandr Suvorov
Joseph Stalin

The best of the all, but never actually got the rank was Sun Tzu.

Just read some great words by Sun Tzu:

18. All warfare is based on deception.
19. Hence, when able to attack, we must seem unable; when using our forces, we must seem inactive; when we are near, we must make the enemy believe we are far away; when far away, we must make him believe we are near.
20. Hold out baits to entice the enemy. Feign disorder, and crush him.

And the most important:
26. Now the general who wins a battle makes many calculations in his temple ere the battle is fought. The general who loses a battle makes but few calculations beforehand. Thus do many calculations lead to victory, and few calculations to defeat: how much more no calculation at all! It is by attention to this point that I can foresee who is likely to win or lose.

And those words are 2500 years old!!!

whats even better is after calculating my turns knowing exactly what im going to do...plan every army account for every battle...having my 14 armies actually be able to kill the 3 in my way of victory....why cant they?

ask sun what i do about that...

sorry andrew...those quotes definitely describe how you play this game...but i knew there was a dice joke in there somewhere

Rev you got a link for that - i've taken a gander at the todo list and the forum and can't see it for love of looking.

I love the new ranks, although I think a scout should start at 1000 (pretty appropriate) and then ranks afterwards accordingly.

Tals

p.s my suggestion for the points would be
New recruit
scout 1000
private 1100
Corporal 1200
Sergent 1400
Lieutenant 1700
Captain 2000
Major 2500
Brigadier 3200
General 4000
Field Marshall 5000
Warlord first

I think scout is good where it is.. because if you are under 800 you are just bad, and I want to see that i'm playing you.

First of all, can we bring all future discussion to the thread in the suggestions forum that RK just linked to? It will make things a lot easier than holding 2 seperate conversations.

Also, your point suggestions aren't bad- I like the way they progress upward in theory. However I think they go way too high, at least for the time being. Someone getting to 5000 points when the highest we have is 3600 seems like it will be a LONG way off. Also, to use all of your ranks you would need TWO people to get to that level, since the first person would be warlord.

Another problem is starting the level for scout at 1000. All of the points I listed below each rank are the base level of points. If you have the minimum for scout (it will actually be cadet) at 1000, then what is everyone below that point? If you look, you'll see that privates are currently everything from 1-999. In my proposal cadets would be 1-799 and privates would be 800-999.

Agreed - i'll post properly when I am next on. I agree with your thoughts re the lower - the upper I think we have to expect 5000 points to be reached by this time next year
