New Objectives for taking bases
« on: August 10, 2005, 01:15:17 PM »
This is an idea to balance the sides.

Right now when one country is seriously down in numbers, often the other two beat up on it to reset.  Sure rooks might turn on the nits to actually win the reset, but usually not.  The poor Bish are just hammered.

Lets introduce new objectives other than taking land to reset.

Here's the setup:
Nits are rolling over everyone especially Bish with their numbers.  Make one base in nitland control all the captured bases. If they lose that base, their captured bases are closed down until they get it back.

or:
Make one base control all the american planes. Capture that base and they lose all their american planes.

or:
Use your imagination.  We could even have a combination.

This would make for some real interesting deep missions.  (hahaha, he said "missions" we don't do those in Rookland)  It would be heaven for the bomber guys, but you would still have to get a goon in there.  

Bishland could stop the rape and plunder of their sh**p with one stroke and if they succeeded the Nits would deserve it.  This is air warfare the way it was intended to be.  

For the ground hogs lets make a string of V bases all the way into the controlling base.  Defend the ground or else.  I can tell you where the lines of attack are going to come right now.

I wouldn't make 163"s available to defend this base.  Lets reserve that for radar.

Ya lots of stuff could be done. Im not sure what their take is on the map movement thing. Do they like to see maps flip by every day or two, or do they prefer us on 1 map for a while.

Yep, nothing like a 100 mile dead zone to improve gameplay.

The 100 mile dead zone is a factor.  

What about just losing troops and ord in all captured bases until the controling base is recaptured?  

This would stop further land grabs and give the underdog a breather.

I wouldn't mind the 100 mile dead zone.  The underdog could use the time it takes to recapture the control base to recapture some of their own territory.  

The objectives are to limit ganging up on the underdog country and having more strategic options.

But,

Then,

We would be stuck with the same map for ever.  Don't you guys like changes?  Yeah someone gets double teamed (sometimes) for a couple of hours but they can still up and fly till the war is over.  

Since when did the Bish want to engage into a fight anyway?

It would be nice if supply lines from e.g. HQ could be considered. If a base in the middle of that line was destroyed in some way.. or a bridege or such, all resupply would cease at the bases on the other side (the front side) until the supply route gets fixed.

This could encourage deep strikes and also defending one's flanks and home areas.
