XML Modifications and Variations
xml: none yet

Paratroopers - this is an idea I'd like to see in a map, but I think it can be done already by making a country with 1-way borders to everywhere.

Non - deployable territories
xml: none yet

Troop Limit and Non-Deployable Territories - I like these but there is an issue where you have a bunch of armies to deploy and nowhere to put them.

[Wisse]

here are the ones that are gonna be maybe or are more difficult than the already selected:

dinamic borders
Multiple Map Images
Variable basic army grants
Key/switch Territories
Attack only no advancement
Fortifyable but non attackable borders
Continent bonus triggers other xml stuff
Overruling continent bonus

[Wisse]

this are the ideas that are not going to be used because of:
1) not a xml feature
2) not possible
3) to difficult

Field Marshals and Generals, Fortresses and Siege Towers
Travel Time
1. Fractional Individual Territory Bonuses 2. With Variable Conditions
Mutiple attacks
Trade Routes
Neutral Players
Overloaded Territories
Negative Opponent Bonus Territories
"Treu" Teleport Territories
Bonuses Multipliers
Surrounded Attacks
Limited Attack Dice
Bonus spaces/Barracks Territories
Paratroopers
Defenseless
Capture the Flag
Set Starting Positions
Fortress Spaces
Random Bonus
Variable Neutral Response
Fortress and attack state
Team Bonus
Fog of war

Territorial Bonus
(this is for that the bonus you get is on the land itself and not that you could use it everywhere)
Decay Territories
(use for this one a - for the number)
xml:

Code: Select all

<country>
<name>Ethiopia</name>
<borders>
  <border>Somalia</border>
  <border>Kenya</border>
</borders>
<coordinates>
  <smallx>424</smallx>
  <smally>213</smally>
  <largex>569</largex>
  <largey>277</largey>
</coordinates>
<bonus>2</bonus>
</country>

Lack? What happens if that territory is down to 1 and the bonus is negative?

Neutral 1? Or it stops happening at 1 (or 2) 2 would be more fair as that's the best defense spreader?

thnx but what about the idea to make this a sticky?

[lackattack]

Guys we already have a topic for new xml. I just happened to notice this and read it. If the negative bonus is more than what you've got, it will stop at 1 army. But let's keep the discussion in the sticky.
