Civ3 in W3 (well something like it...)

Well, since I'm really lazy, I'm posting this really to give any enterprising young mapmaker an idea (please dont give me bad rep if this isn't where it should go...)

Well, I've been pondering about a game like Civ3 in W3... I love Civ, but i gotta buy the expansion pack to play online, and also, multiplayer games these days... What ever happened to skill and tactics? I mean the most skill requiring game these days is snipers/archer tactics, but they don't require tactics... The most tactic requiring game would probably be Wardraft... But it doesnt require much skill and it isn't fast paced enough for people like me, so I've decided maybe to make a game LIKE a meelee game, but much more fast paced and more options... Civ would make a perfect fit, with a few tweaks... Now to the point...

What would make this game different from other boring games like europa or castle builder is that it requires many tactics... You see, you don't directly control your units, but rather you control something that the units follow, sortof like this:



@ <--- A floating thing that you command
() () () () () () () () <--- Actual Units

Also, like AoE, you can put the 'unit' (the units controlled by the floating thingy) into different positions like:

Phalanx Box
Position
0000 00000
0000 0 0
0000 00000

etc... (hope it came out right)

Also, there would be techtrees, and yuou get money from taxes from pop, and in the beginning you would have to get your tribe to hunt while you still haven't discovered agriculture (what i'm implying is to make food an actual gained resource), and you have to control certain places like a mine or something...

Thats all i got, you ppl build on my idea ;)

This is in the wrong place. Nah, I won't give you bad rep, don't worry, but I am going to move it.

k thx, but feedback here plz...
