Well, first of all i think that you should have more to come with before you post about us giving u ideas, "u are like nomads that got tents and upgrade to stone and ****" Isn't the best adverisment that i've heard 'bout a map =) |

Well the thing I find interesting about it is the not being able to gather supplies. So how do you end up getting supplies? Well, nomads are nomads for 1 of 2 reasons: they are following a herd of animals they live off, or they are traders/merchants moving from town to town. So... maybe you could make it a trading game, kind of like Escape Velocity... go from town to town, buying low and selling high and all that, until you find some other missions to do. It'd be cool to have a caravan of units you had to protect that had all your valuables in them... Wagons and pack horses come to mind. I don't know about buildings, honestly... if you're nomadic, why build buildings? |

If you're nomadic you would want tents that could be packed and unpacked easily, not stone buildings. The reason why nomads are nomadic is because the resources are too scarce for them to stay in one area. |

well im sayin nomadic people like the start of mankind when the had to travel the land and hunt for their food. when they get a certian amount of gold (they get gold for killin animals) then they can upgrade to farms which they start to gather. and im sry that i did give enough details because i like zoned out and forgot y they were nomads and wut nomads did. |

Hee hee hee. I take it you mean 'hording'. As for you, Crimsongg137, the early human race did not constantly move around, they settled early and used it constantly, maybe switching to one of two locations from summer to winter. It still sounds like one of those s****y open RPGs. ThePersonThing, yours sounds good. I hate that you can't win and after a while everyone leaves, so you can't even make war with someone. |

um i have decided that they have to hunt animals for sum gold (gold is equal to food) then u can get a settled home. then after that u can research animals. that is which u can train animals for food. like a farm house. that will gather gold every 30 secs. so if the enemy wants to get back at u he could go for ur animals.. well its a good start i think.. |
