Creating bands of Villages; Kingdoms or Alliances Idea

[ninja_yodeler]

to expand on my earlier idea, the kingdom idol would have an authority bar, the points equal the total authority of every village under its control.
the idol would deactivate if the kingdom authority reaches below a certain number or if there are less than three villages (not including the one where the idol is, which would obviously be considered the capital). if the idol controls three villages then it would entter the stage where the claim still stands but only as a monument. it would still technically claim the land but would not prevent anyone from stealing etc.

bump... keep this thread alive people ive given a good foundaition to the idea and so has a lot of others, if we can expand this idea to perfection hopefully the devs might take some notice and at least consider implementing

It would be definitively interesting to be able to craft "frontiers", since you're talking about kingdom claims.

Perhaps with some sort of polygonal system, defined by something like a set of flags to craft and maintain, where you could place your own banner, with some sort of heraldic codes, or armories.

And don't forget the possibility of tributes, sacrificial maidens too!

explain frontiers, ive only heard that use in terms of say "the western frontier" in contect of a war

and heraldic codes would you be meaning liike chieftains able to craft their own "signature" onto a banner so people know who it is like a coat of arms which could be cool.
and armories already exist just a house full of cupboards full of swords/armor

[yummy]

Ah sorry, I meant borders. Basically, a "country" or government based territory has limits, right?
And armories, maybe some sort of coat representing one's country?

(and the sacrificial maidens!)

yea thatss what i was thinking basically have a claims that connects all the involved villages but this would not work as they could be on other sides of the world so you would have to have the standards>coat of arms> of the king or kingdom to expand the claim

[yummy]

Plus, with this kind of portable equipment, you would be able to define roles, ranks, purposes... Like emissaries (allowed to trespass if they receive special agreement rights), generals, citizens...

Or as I suggested, they have to be either A) in the same supergrid or B) within a preset distance to the capital of said Kingdom

the way i would set it is so that it begins within a set distance, but as the kingdom authority bar increases so does the range of control, the max being an entire supergrid after that you might have to expand to an empire which is like 3 kingdoms ruled by the emporer> which is probably takeing it to far but oh well
