Handicaps

[Fangfallen]

In games that have 8 players (and if 16 player games are implemented) the last player is almost always royally screwed.
I think that the first player should have +0% defense & attack 2nd +1% defense & attack 3rd +2% defense & attack and so on.. with the 8th player getting +7% defense and atttack

+1 or +2 attack or defense will NEVER do ANYTHING.

Well Mr. Rat I know that.. And the first 4 players always get the best picks of the map... thats why they dont need anything extra.. But the 8th player getting
+7% attack and defense in addition to a race bonus like the Dark knights would smack on a +17% Defense (thats just bad@ss)

and in a 16 player game (if added) it would be +15% defense and attack without a race bonus.

I know this would need its own quirks but can you seriously tell me that a Blademaster with +25% attack wouldnt make a difference?

Perhaps, since the FTA goes down later in the game, it could start like this and go down 1% each turn until it goes to 0?

Yea that would be nice as later in the game when everyones borders have been established the handicap would be to strong

I think this idea is not that good.

The balance already exists... sometimes you start as red, sometimes as brown. Enough said. And there are some slight disadvantages sometimes in some settings to be red...

As always ppl will feel differently about this just like with the races and bonuses. So if it is implemented there could always be an option to not use it in your map.

Best solution is a 10%-15% defense bonus for any defending players on first three to five turns. It would be on/off for games where that would be bad, like really small maps and full start. But others than that, it could help with the bigger maps being unfair to start with
