Hear ye, hear ye, the first Faction War of this site is officially under way! In case you don't know what this is, this will be from now on a monthly strategy game for everyone here to enjoy, or to demonstrate their strategic genius, or maybe simply up for the reward of this(I'll talk about this later). Every month, there will be one of these sort of games and if there's a notable holiday then easter eggs and units from that holiday will be up for grabs by the players of this game. The units will be divided in several groups of troops as follows:
Levy Troops: Swordsmen, Spearmen, Archers and Cavalry that have had only minimal training in using their weapons. Each player will have 70.000 of these(30.000 levy swordsmen, 25.000 levy spearmen, 10.000 levy archers and 5.000 levy cavalry
Regular troops: Their mainly trained army. They will have only 60.000 of these(20.000 swordsmen, 15.000 spearmen, 10.000 archers and 5.000 cavalry(3.000 sword cavalry, 2.500 spear cavalry)).
Professional Troops: Their best troops, they number only 30.000 in number(10.000 swordsmen, 8.000 spearmen, 7.000 archers, 5.000 cavalry(3.000 sword cavalry, 2.500 spear cavalry))
Special Troops/Faction Troops: You can have only 500 troops of these kind. On holidays, you'll have soldiers specific to that holiday, in a month, where there is no holiday, you'll be able to decide what those troops are. These troops will be slightly stronger than Professional troops, however, they will have a skill that will make them stand our more.
Their siege and artillery weaponry will consist of 20 battering rams, 10 catapults and 5 trebuchets for each player, if a player loses all of these, then it will be very difficult for him to conquer any castles.
They will have 5 castles(counting their main one), the four secondary castles will have 15.000 unmovable levy troops as garrison, while their main castle will have the 30.000 levy troops, 7.500 regular troops and 2.500 professional troops. The secondary castles will have 100.000 food(1 soldier uses one food, when they don't have enough food, they start deserting(in the undead case I have 100.000 magic supply to keep the undead alive), the main castle will have 250.000 food(magic supply in my case). This game will play out much like EoN(Enemy of Nations) from CYS, however, what's different from that is that there will be a day-night cycle. The type of troops are like rock-paper-scissors, Swordsmen > Spearmen > Cavalry > Swordsmen. Archers are very weak in melee, so they're weak against all of the above.
Diplomacy between players is done via messaging one another and if you want to attack someone, just send me a message with the number of troops and what tactic you wish to use and I'll apply it and post it in the attacked one's sub-board. Oh, each player will need to make six threads in their sub-board, each for one of the castles, plus the possible battlefields around that character's territory.
And now, the prize! If Derp allows me to, the victor will get as a reward 150 coins, second place will get 100 coins, third place will get 50 coins and the rest of the participants will get 20 coins for at least trying to. Now, if you want to point out anything, or ask me to add anything do it here. I'll try to start it by tomorrow and we'll try to end it by the end of the month. Anyone who wishes to participate, reply to this post with a Yes, or I'll join, or anything that will let me know that you will participate. May the best strategist win!
