Id like to see an 'Armory' that has weapons and armor available to equip your troops with. These are similar to races but can be combined with them. They are purchased and require a certain level to unlock. basically these are better technology from building up your empire (account). Some have tradeoffs, like less attack or mobility.

Leather Armor: +1% defense, needs level 1
Chainmail: +2% defense, needs level 3
Scalemail: +3% defense, needs level 5
Platemail: +4% defense, needs level 10, -5% spawn
Body Armor: +5% defense, needs level 15

Short Swords: +1% attack, lvl 1
Long Swords: +3% attack, lvl 3
Polearms: +3% attack, strike first, lvl 5
Crossbows: +5% attack, strike first, lvl 10, -5% spawn
Rifles: +5% attack, strike first, lvl 15

Leeches: +1% Spawn, lvl 1
Tourniquet, +2% spawn, lvl 3
Splints, +3% spawn, lvl 5
Antibiotics, +5% spawn, -5% attack, lvl 10
Medikits: +5% spawn, lvl 15

either only gives a max of +5% and take awhile to get, but let you customize your army even further. each follows a progression to level 10 that has a good bonus with a small tradeoff. Level 15 gives the same with no penalty. Other options might work but its a good premise to start with. start with a strong race, equip it with good gear to get the play style you want, ultimately very high level players will have a strong advantage further encouraging strong players to play strong players.

How would this encourage strong players to play other strong players, W/L ratio is easier against a weak player for example, and also. Correct me if i´m wrong, but you don´t get more exp, for beating a higher ranked player..

sorry pal but i dislike, sounds like another game to me, not VW.

weaker players will play each other leaving high ranked players to each other.

sorry, but don´t think so, you maybe right about weaker players, but strong players will seek out weaker players for easy exp. And then you will end up having a lot of kicks before the game starts, just don´t think that´s a good idea.

how would you make it better while keeping the core idea? get rid of the level requirement and open it to everyone?

yay
if this gets through i will instantly buy every highest thing
that will give me this bonus with arachnids:
10%attack/5%defense /15%spawn
I'll own every one else :D
Or i could go with natives
5%attack /5%defense /5%spawn/1=2
almost dragons but better in the beginning

What i say us actually ?
ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
what would be the purpose of better races if this gets through

and wait that would make pumpkins almost unbeatable:no penalty and 20%spawn so in 6 turns they have fourty troops already : 1/2/4/8/18/40
compare it to armored arachnids: 1/2/4/8/18/38/40
that would be in 7 turns

THIS IS A VERY BAD IDEA :mrgreen:
