Rule / setup for Fed War event

basicly a thread to discuss idea`s suggestions and fixes to the rules

aswell as formalising them so that they are concrete , as the trial wasnt perfect but i enjoyed it and im sure yall did.

we need seperate rules ofc for each gamespeed , along with a set reward for them.

Current + Future Rules:

C3`s gained from NPC or Galactic Council to Fed Leaders
C3`s can be 1-2 Land Size alternating the value of Certain C3`s
Any Alteration to a C3 will make it void ( assimilate / infect / gordo / plunder )

Vacation mode while holding a C3 will void Your EMPIRE instead of your C3`s , this means if you VM with a C3 , the C3 & You are useless to your fed. but if you return and its stolen, the C3 will still count. this rule doesnt count if they are infected / assimilated / gordoed

Rule facing this update to prevent numerous abuses im sure yall can think of if you put yourself in mr admins shoes , and to make mr admins life easier

Activated Vacation Mode will exclude you from ALL Galactic Council handouts , this includes Randomly given out C3`s and Rewards.

Fed Hopping / Creating / Kicking / Other such unfair advantages any of you can bring forward need rules applying to ensure fair balanced and enjoyable gaming.

i dont think its fair if 6 people in 6 different feds get kicked , make a new fed and beat a fed thats winning , then most likely just return to there feds again.

HOWEVER , i do like the general idea , so im thinking something like a 2 week rule before you become a valid contribution to your fed

cant recall if i missed anything o.o`

Rule : All 1-2 Land C3`s must be either plundered or gordo`d After Event Rewards handed out

Yeah as very young empire, i think it would definetely incentivise people to play

And also to ACTIVELY participate i.e not staying in DP all the time

Imagine a new player in a new fed, fighting another new fed for like umm 5 , 150-250% u class planets , i.e 3-5k fert, 3-5k eden, 15-25k u large

or like islander said artifacts or clusters

Which gives other players something to hunt for, but with say more than 3 events running concurrently with 1 monitor each ( this should but does not have to be a guide or a Mod, it can be any player, who is willing to log daily reports of actions)

i.e Players hitting other players, maintaining a set amount of pr, holding most cluser/planets etc

the only problem being that fed-fed contests must be fair and comparable, which is purely down to personal judgement

but should probably be something like .. umm comparable research levels ? total land in a fed ? pr at time of war ? thatsa a bit more difficult

but its definetely an idea that opens lots of possibilities, encourages new players, and gives everyone something to aim for

=D

That`s freakin awesome, fighting to control other feds name or have x empire restart, that would be hilarious xD

I really like the fed`s put forward the stakes, so even the little feds can participate with each other for like 20 gordos or sometihng easily obtainted =).

I definetly like.

anyhows the fed war event i had hoped to start on the 10th will start on 1st of feb and end at the end of feb , same rules as december
M MaraudianOP
one of the goals of this is to make an event the staff of future dont need to host or put forward a great deal ( instead the people taking part do event themselves )

this idea in future ofc wont need C3`s and big rewards from admin powers

instead the people taking part state the requirements ( most wins vs other fed , most planets stolen , most land stolen , biggest planet increase / loss etc etc )

ofc the reward is also set up and dealt with by the ref member of staff , be it x land / planet / artifact ( ref ensures both sides dispose this for the cause , then the winning side gets the other , and if needed admin can add an extra 50% to it , so winning fed gets 3x what they sacrifise at start )
D DraconianParadise
Excellent idea if it can work out

And plus seperate to that, the admin can also throw in extra rewards

like i dunno for example

race to the top... the fed which maintains the top spot in pr, after a reset after i dunno 2 weeks gets a reward

In ogame fed wars are set by damage made to opposing fed, so can be judged by number of planets taen ?

Also would make interesting reading and get people involved and working together like back in `04

The backstabbing and intrigueis what got me hooked in the first place

I wld rly look forward to something like this

I haven;`t like the c-3 idea, , purely because once gordoed they are useless, but still it has seemed like a good idea in the making !

sounds good mara would certainly make fed wars more interesting
M MaraudianOP
can even bet an empire ( loser has x empire restart )

you guys dont talk much :`(
M MaraudianOP
a stake can even be one fed has to disband , loses his fed name , or gets fed name replaced by the enemy ( aslong as doesnt break rules ) ^^
M MaraudianOP
well infernal these 1 month multi fed war events are merely a beta test for me to create a ` real fed war ` not just one that you get to x2 eachother

mixed with rewards for taking part and ofc made enjoyable as possible

this is how i do all my testing ( used to be on DM but due to whining ... )

my goal from these fed war events is to make a fair balanced rule system that is as much fun as possible and gets you fighting eachother as much as possible , then we can shorten the 1 month to 1-2 week and allow feds to declare a ` real ` war on eachother with stakes & conditions they themselves put forward , and one side actually wins and one side loses and hell lots of fun and blood.

so please do contribute to making my idea possible by discussing the below post , because once thats done we can get on with the 1 month war then yall can declare these wars left and right and basicly hold your own events ( with staff as ref`s )

( examples . fed A declares big war with fed B , the stake is 50 gordo ( ref takes 50 gordo from each fed ) then the winning fed gets 100 gordo )

this opens up a very big big area of things i can do , such as artifacts planets land money minerals etc etc

The easiest way to separate them between different feds would be to assign each fed a number and that is the land of the c3 they get, short of a large amount of feds a gordo couldnt move the number from 1 fed to anothers.

obviously how you decide who gets prizes would need to be discussed though
D DraconianParadise
lol it seems that some people are never happy

I for one appreciate all the idea and input Mara puts into the game

Most ppl wldn;t know a good idea if it smacked them in the face

Maybe an idea, would be to post up a new ideas thread for future events, and see what ppl have to say, instead of continuosly moaning

having ideas are nice..but not when its in the middle of something which you already originally said you`d do. thats very stephen-ish
M Moops
I`m interested... twas waiting to hear about these balancings you mentioned =P
M MaraudianOP
nobody seems interested :(
M MaraudianOP
i was thinking of handing out C3`s per 3-5 wins on a participating fed war enemy

rather than just handing them out.

for every X ammount of wins you stash you can have the person of your choice claim a C3

( naturally you cant claim them all at the end of the month , so balancing methods for that need to be talked about )

wanted to discuss the above for this event before just throwing 5 C3`s or so at yall ( because it feels more fun )

any ideas when he`s coming back? I came back down in PR to be ready for this because he told us it`d start on a certain day. Not complaining, just a bit frustrated because I could have stayed where I was (a seemingly safe point in the PRs) and not lost the borders for my other C3...
S Seifer
maru went on a holiday? no no no he cant have holidays hes the admin! he has to stay here 24/7 and tend to our needs
S Sol
when Maraudian gets back from his holiday I imagine.

*bip wonders when it`s gonna start...
