Demigod Level

[PROMETHEUS ts]

How about Demigod level like this :

After legendary ....

Demigod level == Legendary but plus :

in battle you cannot go far with camera from the area of influence of your general or generals.

You cannot fight battles that do not have a general in it ( autoresolved )

Europeans may force you to open the ports by bombing it and placing a garrison and putting a monk to spread their religion , if you not have good relations with them or u refuse to commerce for long for example..


You cannot voluntairly autoresolve battles when happen

other ideas?

[Oxus]

I don't think many people besides you have beaten Legendary yet =P

Those are some interesting ideas though, and seem like they would make the game extremely challenging.

Limiting the camera seems like a terrible idea, the game camera will not ever be a realistic view of what your general could see. Historically, generals had tools to control large armies; it would just make the battles arbitrarily difficult to control.

Just making sure that AI keeps sizeable garrison on cities, disabling auto resolve for seige, passive AI bug fix, suicidal general AI fix and AI not foolishly storming the castle with 50/50ish odd (should just besige and wait for reinforcement) would make the campaign a LOT harder.

And these are mainly just fixes

I think this game needs more fixes, not more scripted challenges to cover up some major bugs with the AI atm.

BTW I remember RTW had the general's viewpoint camera and.... it was TERRIBLE.

[PROMETHEUS ts]

Well woul dbe a reason to have more officers in an army ...

I don't know about the Europeans bombing ports, since aren't they supposed to be trading with you not trying to kill you?

How about making it so naval fleets have to return to port after an x amount of time otherwise you would lose men do to shortages and such.

Problem is with clicking on terrain that isn't directly in front of your general with any kind of precision. Camera being restricted to generals is a challange like playing this game after you smash your hands with a hammer is a challenge...

Yes it gets harder, but adds absolutely no fun factor.

Simply improving AI's handling on seiges (both on battlefield and on campaign map) alone would make this game way harder without making the AI cheese any more.

I agree the game needs fixes before adding anything. I think one thing that would help the AI not lose cities so easily would be adding better garrison forces. Like instead of 1 samurai retainer at first level they get 2 bow ashigaru and 2 yari ashigaru and 1 retainer.

I think darthmod for ETW had higher garrison troops and it added a good amount of difficulty because you can't just stroll in to every city the AI foolishly leaves unattended

[Alkarin]

but camera is already restricted in legendary mode? or atleast it is for me..

[PROMETHEUS ts]

yes restricted to units area ....

[the_intricacy]

oh, but what would you do for "Sid" level, then?

[Thefallenhun]

Plenty of people beat legendary, its pretty easy with Oda.

Its easy with Shimazu and Chosokabe, but definatly not with Oda,

[Thefallenhun]

With Oda, if you can survive the initial onslaught, your cheap supermen ashigaru will carry you to victory.
