But there is only 1 capitol in a country, it would be pretty simple to have Capital: 1-3 bonuses, City:1-2 bonuses, Settlement/Colony 0-1 bonus. There is only 1 Capitol in a country, then there are cities, and then small towns or forts, which are settlements.

Well lets just say they are capitals of their choosen profession. Capitals of Farming, Capitals of industry, etc.

Update on NPC's. We have Zilu Slave Traders, Wood Elves, Dwarves, Ogres, Highland Clans, Goblin Traders, Sea Raiders, Giants, Spice Lords, Brothers of the Crusade, and the Under Nests (Rat like people)

o well but ill contiue on and if any of ya guys need help just let me know

I'm back and can i take turqoase?

No admiral you got brown... for brown ants... or something.

Let me do shiny gold or something like that.

Cool. perfect.

my lhabians will devour you!

How terribly inconvenient.
Go back to your Manta on schiphol, bugger!

And ill fly it straight to your house.

Which actually would be less then 30 minutes because of the fact that you live in the same country.

But were?

Well now you're from the US.
Damn you and your multinationality!

Heh, I like proxy sites
Or teleporters.
I let you choose wich one it is.

I choose both!

Maybe Ill teleport my proxy site to Australia

ORCS SAY BOTH

Ps: hows the tech system gonna work, all points into one big tech upgrade or you buy little upgrades iincrementaly that add up to the next set of techs (cause I have 6 different techs for me to reserch every age up to the victorian age)

you just spend your 50 points to tech up

you spend points in several reserches wich allow you to tech up then after
you buy all 6 reserches (maby more later)
EXAMPLE: Bronze age for me
-Bronze development: discovery and reserch with bronze allows bronze weapons (they make solder more killy)
-Bronze refinement: continued working with bronze pushes it to its limits and allows bronze armor (armor makes solder harder to kill)
-Sea travel: allows contruction of sturdier boats that can travel upon open water
-Arrow mass production: develop better arrowmaking methods allowing for cheeper archer squads
-Ogre training: develops training methods designed for the few bands of ogres that live in the orcish lands (lets orcs train ogres for a cost)
-Flaming Boulders: Develops methods for making the boulders fired by catapults more deadly than before

(these would all be like 10 pt upgrades and you would get the next set unlocked after reserching them all)

No, you have to reach 50 tech points in order to unlock the next level.

Map will be up soon.

I also PM'ed some examples of research to joker.

Here are some techs i had in mind for bronze age.

tech1: borrowing glands? allows the basic soldiers to dig through the hives and ambush the enemy forces will give them a bonus on the defensive.

tech2: scything claws (i know a nid upgrade) makes them stronger in melee.

tech3: enhanced carapace increases their armour.

tech4: adrenaline boosters injects huge amounts of adrenaline to make it fight faster and harder into the warriors blood stream. Enhances offensive capability

This was a major pain in the butt to get it to work on here.

Can anyone see it, because I can't...

Awesome i am of the infested lands!

And that name really really fits.

And yes i can see it.

Put the beautiful map in the OP.

Well mister elf we are neighbours.

Wait are those mountains also mine?

The map will go in the main thread when I get the game running.

Because I can't put capitals on there lets just say if someone invades your region any capital can be sieged. Sound fair?

Sure.

If we did Capitol/City/Settlement you could be forced to capture them in least to greatest order.

Or we could just give things like barracks and citys defensive bonus' to deter people.

That is a good idea.

I still say you let us have 1 captiol city of our nation which can have 2 parts.

Zman111 dude we are neighbours we can make a alliance and crush the elves!
