that be fun but i think that ai should be able to do something or be able to puppet the ai especially if their smaller and for the protection thing that seems to similar to the mobile games.Ah Zee wrote:
I Like this idea!The smaller countries would be Quite a challenge and Require some fancy diplomacy to survive.
I had thought for a while,maybe allow n00bs to 'try' the game by playing a smaller country (in the Europe map) to find out if they like this game Before trying a larger country.(Maybe give this option to players under level 10,or 15 ? ) example : Fred joins.Fred finishes tutorial.Fred finds a new game,joins.His options,being new,would show him being able to play any of the smaller countries (Greece,Denmark,Netherlands) with 7 day no-attack protection and all his units get a green 'aura' (such as the red 'aura' enemies get when we are at war with someone) that ALL can see,give them the 'standard' 1 infantry per province,an IC in their Capital,and the same starting $$ as everyone else gets. Maybe instead of giving them a plane & airbase,give the countries with their capital on the sea a navy base & a destroyer ? (such as Copenhagen,Athens,Amsterdam,etc.) They would NOT count in a Coalition size restrictions,and IF they choose to quit,as many do,when they become 'inactive' they lose the green aura and revert back to AI control making them pretty much as they are now...but with a few more units (maybe) and some more $$ for whoever conquers them.
For me,having played a Few games now....I don't see playing a smaller country as being much fun.Not against bigger countries with more ICs and resources.There's just no way I'd be able to keep up after day 10 unless I did some Really skillful & creative attacking. But,with the dropout rate this game has...well,I'd rather see Austria go inactive after day 3 than Germany or Italy.
That's just my 2 cents.
