Inactive Topic No Pop needed for troop spells

Link of time

Phrourach
Proposal: If you cast a troop spell on a city the city will not lose pop.


Reason: Now, you need population to cast a spell, after this you don't.


Details: Now, you need pop to cast troop spells, after this, you don't.


Visual Aids: None


Balance/Abuse Prevention: To raise the needed favor. Divine sign now needs 120 not 50 and for patroness you need 160.


Do not -rep this. It is old and forgotten. And due to the large rep loss due to this *coughapebbalecough* please delete this as soon as possible.

No, No, No, No.

Well, yeah...lets go with this for a sec.

I get a city full with 400 chariots and enough ts to carry 300 more and escorts. Im maxed out on pop.

Now, I just get my alliance buds to cast the chariots on me so i can fill my ts so i can go smack around another player with 800 chariots?

No...farm pop is there to put a limit on how much power one city can hold militarily.

The abuse is unlimited.

You dont understand the reason population is there? It is there so people cant mass size armies with thousands and thousands of troops. This is:

1. HIGHLY unrealistic
2. HIGHLY abusable
3. HIGHLY stupid

You understand now? Or will you keep on with ignorance?

No because the possibility of having 9001 chariots in one city would ruin the game balance.

No, I'm saying that he instantly trained 4 of your people to a chariot without any costs.

NO,since as already said above it will ruin the balance of the game

Xavier, when you get a moment, work your mod magic and make this thread disappear. :D

Jovial remarks aside, this thread should be closed to avoid anymore pointless spam.

yes this idea stinks if you had 10k char and you attacked someone who only had hera the have no way to defend their selves

Well, I believe the maximum you could get in a city full of chariots would be 2350 (or close to it)

because you need transports and escorts. But yeah, we all agree with your point ;)

I don't think the point is that Zeus trains a chariot... as Athena's Patroness spell says... "brave Warriors hear the call and rush into the city". For Zeus' Divine Sign.... "A chariot descends and follows the city".

Those brave warriors or that charioteer are still people... new people in the city... and they add to the population... in the case of the chariot that includes a horse or horses.

The population limit represents several factors - most importantly food supplies and physical space taken.

In whatever way troops come to the city... barracks, harbor or spells... once they are there, they still need to fed, clothed and housed... and as we all know from public restrooms... there is a limit to how many people can be in one area before it gets really icky.

He conbiend 4 people into one chairot?

Well, what does it matter? The game doesn't show that. The point is that Grepo isn't just about getting more troops and bossing around, you know. Each game has its own balance. This idea would tip balance. This would make a server seriously MRA cuz' then every player would like to get troops for free with just the expense of divine favour. And not just one player in the MRA but everyone. :)

So, no, nada.
