Cabal of Crazed Commanders

[Leturoa]

I just thought of another thing. Like in cavalry if you kill someone from horseback you get mounted exp. Why not have it so if your AI gets a kill it rewards the player (or players if it is easier) with faction points if that is going to be used as currency. This would make it a bit more fair for the shielders who currently struggle to complete quests because they don't kill they just sit there with a shield.

Spoiler

Pretty good idea. Just need to make a set of buyable and upgradable NPCs for the Swadians. Faction Points should be the currency for this gamemode. Another issue would be balancing the number of bots per side, but at the same time, making the server manageable to play. Sometimes when I play Commander Battle on NW with 400+ bots on the battlefield, I can't switch between weapons in my inventory. This could just be my computer, but not so sure. A set amount of bots per player would also have to be determined.

As an example for the buyable NPCs

Recruits-500FP?
Class:Infantry
Body Armor:20 (Swadian Recruit Armor)
Head Armor:7 (Arming Cap)
Leg Armor:14 (Ankle Boots)
Power Strike:1
Ironflesh:0
Athletics:2
Shield:1
Strength:6
Agility:6
Health:50
One-Handed Wpf:75
Equipment:Short Sword, Old Heater Shield, and Worn Darts.

Based mostly off redshirts. 

Edit:After thinking about it, it would seem reasonable to make this mode go in waves. There can be 20 waves just like in the other ones. Every time the players win, the map would change but advance to the next stage. The first wave could be peasants, then so on. 1-8 could be Normal based bots, 9-15 Hard, and 16-20 Ragnarok. Or, the spawns could be just like reinforcements in the singleplayer campaign of Native. Just a thought on that part. ^^

They might bring in a way to unlock other troops to use. They could use exp I guess but wouldn't it be better to use the faction points? Since they kind of measure how much fame you have and changes your rank. Why not use that to unlock more troops the more famous you get?
