Game Development: Castles in the Sand

catapults. also. I feel like this should only affect town claims. not private.

Based on this change: Bring on the trade tables, like NOW. Awesome changes Jorb, lets see what the corner cases look like.

R'lyeh? No, not at all. That seemed like a fair enough engagement. This is unrelated.

Ok, Thank you.

Now with this, should we be looking for different forms of seige engines coming to the game soon?

To me the crucial need to keep the gates alway closed was kinda part of immersion into the game. It's cruel worl, we had to be careful to survive. On the other hand punishing people who are dumb enough to leave the gate open was also a mechanic which make this game unique.

Feel like we are approaching WoW now

Yeah, I'm not a fan of jumping the gun on that claim changes. It pretty much just kills raiding entirely.

Can't you ram the walls as usual? I'm assuming it only works if you actually cross the gate.

Let me just build a wall and leave the gate open. Nobody can raid me or do anything unless they arbitrarily bash down the wall using a palibasher or sitting at a ram for 24 hours

.....What? I don't even

Yes.

OP really ought to emphasize the fact that the only thing this changes is that stealing master keys doesn't mean a base is yours for the razing anymore.

It's certainly something we want to work with, yes.

I can add that it becomes a lot easier to think about that matter when it is decoupled entirely from the question of peaceful interactions.

Does that mean stealing a master key is no longer a ticket to plunder?

Indeed. Another change that seems positive.
