Battlegrounds (revised) - Aries

Battlegrounds is a war game enhancement that ties into the War College idea. Players that graduate from the War College will have an opportunity to continue to use their war skills against other accomplished war players to earn rewards in a fun environment. Steps have been take to simplify its development and make Battlegrounds similar to other game systems for familiarity.

To qualify for Battlegrounds one must:

1. Be War College level 3.

2. Be a premium member.


To participate in Battlegrounds one can either choose to be a Battleground defender or attacker.


Choosing to be a Battleground defender:

1. To do this select any c3 that would normally be available for a c3 war. You automatically become that countries president as if you just completed a war.

2. That country automatically has the deployed defenses of a war level 4 c3 with the appropriate garrisons and units deployed.

I read this expecting to disagree with the idea because of excessive coding requirements etc. But from what I see it would actually require very little work from the developers, simply giving certain countries a [battlegrounds:defender/attacker] tag, and adapting either the daily reward or beginners income functionality to deliver required weapons etc. Good job, although it does bear many similarities to the two team solution I suggested to you in chat a number of days ago ;-)

Haven't read the War College proposal yet, I have a suspicion that is where these ideas might require too much time to be considered feasible. But this suggestion could easily work independently.

Thanks!

Careful, there is no daily reward. Effectively, the Battleground defender "buys" the country in the form of the $3.2 Trillion negative cash level when they assume control of the country. The country and all its assets are then essentially owned by the player and the player can do with them as they wish.

The country retains the Battleground tag, with the conditions I set forth, until it enters a war and returns to peace. When that happens, the victor, attacker or defender, retains control of all country assets and the country. If the country has any debt/negative cash and the defender losses, that debt should be transferred to their (the defender's) empire normally. When the country returns to peace, it also gains the reward of $10 Trillion (after the debt transfer, if necessary).

Please check out the suggestions without any preconceptions. War College not much more than a 3 level system that m
