hey guys,
i have 2 new ideas for a new faction and for a new specialty. the new faction: Spartans and/or Romans.
New specialty: how about if all figures who have shields (that would be: swordman, guards, horseman, spearman, spearman berzerk, swordman, swordman berzerk) if they get a new specialty, lets call it shields up for example, and when you click on the "shields up " button (that we have to make on the figure command menu) it raises its shield and blocks arrows coming from archers and can't hurt them anymore! but to make it fair, if the "shields up mode" is turned on the figure can't walk anymore and also can't fight anymore until you give it the orders to do so, but then the "shields up mode" is turned off again. isn't that a good idea, i mean why would the figure have a shield if it can't use it, and one more thing: just to make it fair the shield should only be able to block arrows, and nothing else. i think it's a good idea, but what about you, please tell me your opinion, oh and if we really are going to use this idea, i can't help (sorry) because i have no idea how to make the figures move and how to write xml files for it, but please give me your opinion.
