Hearth Traps

Postby LimaZulu » Sat Mar 26, 2011 1:07 am

I wouldn't even know what sort of key words I'd need to find out if this is a repeat, so my meager check'll have to do.

Hearth traps could be placed on a claim (or on a construction, idk) so that when triggered, the victim would go straight back to their hearth. I mean, we already have hearth travel, so why not this? It'd make for very interesting warfare, where villages have to send peons first in hopes of disarming all of the traps.

Thoughts, criticisms?

Well, there is minor magic already in game, so I guess so.

He's suggesting a way to trap a tile, so that if you step on the tile, you'll be forcibly sent to your HF.

no offence but that does seem really pointless

I'd really rather not have a mechanic that encourages MORE chump-alt usage. We should be looking for ways to have LESS of that.
