From binary to Donkary:

"1" == "donkey"
"0" == "no donkey"

I do wish they would do something with alts + Strategus.

It kind of sucks that I sort of hurt myself in Strategus by playing my alts.  They generate gold but they don't generate crafting points, so I'm basically wasting precious "chadztext time" by playing an alt.


I miss my alts.  :(


I'm not clear on the downside of being able to use them in Strategus either.  I guess the idea is you're supposed to pick a "you" for Strat and that's who you have to play.  But that's sort of silly given we don't have personal gear and we are essentially filling in as the souls of these soldiers that someone else hired.  That's not "me".  It's not my armor.  I don't even know this guy I'm fighting for.  The ticket I'm representing was recruited from a castle and clearly is not "me".

Given THAT, I see no reason why we can't use alts in Strat.
Crush your enemies; see them driven before you; hear the lamentations of their women.

This has been said tons of times before, but here we go again.
I got a cav char, an archer alt, a shielder and a dedicated mauler.
If the battle is open plains and they have horses, i choose my cav, if it is a siege, i choose my mauler, if we need moar shieldwall, time for shielder, and so on.
So, every battle would be filled with whatever troops "fit" better for it.
Thats not what strat is about (and neither cRPG iirc). You have YOUR character (and a bunch of trolling alts), so you stick with it. If youre an archer and your team happens not to have bows, well, you probably wont get hired in the first place, and if you do, you wont be effective. So you HAVE to pick your battles, you cant just be the jack of all trades. If alts could get on strat, we might as well give everyone 6 skill in everything and 140 wpf, it would be the same.
If you dont understand or this is not correct, please start the flaming below

I think this is a horrible idea.  So when your faction needs more archers just STF and now you have 40 archers for your strat battle.

If you want archers (or any other class) make that your character's skills, or go out and recruit those players.

That's a big reason why I choose to have 1h WPF and shield skill is so that I can get off my horse in strat battles and still be effective.  Having riding, shield skill, and WPF in 1h and polearms makes me pretty versatile.
