Soldiers in Towers

[Remake 2012]

Welcome!

This time I present new iIdea/Suggestions:

Soldiers in Tower/s
what?

In the game we have towers. The towers is sitting helper and throwing stones. But the tower is very high! Certainly accommodate a few more soldiers. My idea is that each tower had additional capacity for warriors (max 5 ?). With the option "leave immediately."

Example. The tower comes five swordfish Sword Fighter. They are sitting and waiting for the enemy. A player may let them go at any time or wait until the enemy destroy towers. (As it appears after the destruction of the strongholds).

For what?

- The enemy is not so quick to attack the village (when he sees five towers might think that there are 25 units of the army!
- The towers will be more useful. And even more dangerous.
- Hide the actual number of troops - we can do an ambush.
- You can add more options to "no throwing stones" and such options unlock when the enemy will be right in front of the tower. : D

A bit of an explanation... Polish name of swordfish is "włócznik", which literaly translated means... spearman. PAKER, next time after you use Google Translate, at least take a look at the output xD

I write "miecznik" - its swordfish - is ok, but ( fish?) not a warrior with a sword ? :/

OK, this fish is also called "miecznik". But still... there's no such a thing as "swordfish warrior"! Swordfish is a fish which in Polish is called "miecznik". You were looking for the word "swordman"...

Poor Paker got trolled by google

ok

What about Soldiers in Towers idea ?

[Skypper]

I don't like to put men in towers.
i like if my towers and men work together.

[Ben]

Nah, towers don't need soldiers in them. That's for games like Stronghold

Ok time to give you first serious responce : D Yet short and negative

- The enemy is not so quick to attack the village (when he sees five towers might think that there are 25 units of the army!
- The towers will be more useful. And even more dangerous.
- Hide the actual number of troops - we can do an ambush.
- You can add more options to "no throwing stones" and such options unlock when the enemy will be right in front of the tower. : D

- Well, it enemy sees your barracs is he not so quick to attack couse you might have 25 units in there?
- It's better to have more dangerous army than more dangerous towers. Generally I doubt anybody would waste 5 units which could turn the tide of battle in the field.
- You can always make more sophisticated ambush by smart manouvering than jack in the box style soldiers going out from the tower.


- That's second idea and I think quite usefull. Might be good to consider a button in the tower interface which prevents it from shooting. This way a quick reacting defender might let the rushing militia in, and kill them with his troops not wasting stones. Worth voting, yet I think it will criple most common tactic to deal with the towers. Maybe if the catapult will be present it might be good to buff the towers in this way, to encourage dealing with them using siege engines.

towers are strong enough they dont need extra ability's.

I would love to have a few crossbow/bowman in my towers....they seems to have the ability to create bows and crossbows, but when it's up to the towers they still trow stones like some primitive soldiers, I would actually love to have this idea incorporated in the game
