Just FYI to Maren and Dophuz on what the end game looks like. Anne, Arsilon and myself kind of came up with a plan.
We think we have a pretty good idea where the hardest purges are now. We will build 3 bases. 1 in each of the difficult area's within a few minutes run of the portal stones. We need big enough bases to have a map room in each base. This way we can have some diversity of Purges.
Ultimately we should get a purge or two every day at 1 of the three locations. This way they are spread out and are different rather than the same one over and over.
Whatever we are doing we have to run back to the base and portal to the attack. This should make it tight. We will see if it is possible to defend given the thrall settings we have now. The current barn and wheels will not be attacked since they are not sitting on foundations. Something to consider in the future.
The three bases will be:
1 where we currently live in the desert (Sobek and Rock purges)
1 near the Mounds of the Dead (Beserker purges)
1 in the North West in the snow (Frost Giant purges)
You will only have to change gear when going to the snow. The Volcano is out and dumb other than potential thralls.
What the above does is it gives the purges a few seconds head start on us unless someone is at the base when the Purge message initially starts.
Below is the basic rule set:
*Only 3 productions thralls can be used at any one given time. (not sure if priest are included in that?)
*1 body guard per player. Timer set to 30 or 60 minutes before the game randomly removes a body guard. (This way you can put a thrall down to decide if you want to use him or not) the long timer is there so you can decide which one to delete and we have a technical issue before one is deleted. (don't waste time making the decision otherwise you could end up killing one of our bodyguards)
*You have 2 minutes to prepare for the purge
*NPC's do double damage on buildings
*Purges last 45 minutes
*Maximum difficulty
*zero time between purges (so we can get them back to back)
*Bases only exist in the 3 most difficult area's in the open
*No palisades
*Building and repairing during a Purge is turned on
*Keeping spare thralls in a cupboard is encouraged
Did I miss anything Arsilon?
