Could we have a vote amongst clanleaders about restarting round, while wait for a new and improved strat?

Why not everyone else involved? Strategus should be fun for all players whether they are in clans or are pubbies.
-
I meant it as a way to pressure chadz or others to reset strat...
-
I think if everyone who played Strat voted it might have a pretty decent effect.
-
Not much point unless there's a major update...
-
Why reset when there are LOTS of landowning factions remaining? Shouldnt one faction hold all fiefs before a reset?

This is my stance. I would like to see more features changed because right now there is not much point in any reset, and there are still places that up and coming or weakened clans can take if they are interested in our current Strategus version.

What strat needs now is a total war.
Fun for everybody, makes the economy grow and shows a real 'winner'.
-
strat needs a reset, the total war u speak of is only a grind...
Lets reset while we wait for improvements.
-
It is possible to fight wars in Strat, but the wars are pointless in terms of destabilising the dominant power, the world is at their mercy.
-
Agree with Lepintoy.
Of course, if there will be changes soon, it's better to wait several weeks, but it's obvious that this strat is over and there will be not a lot fun battles, winner is clear and nothing will be changed. So, i think if devs are not planning to release new version of strat in next few weeks, it's better to wipe it now. Or not now - in one week with previous announcement so everyone can spend troops and make some battles.
-
there wont be a reset before Harald and MrIlluminati are finished with cleaning up the strat code, after that he will try to fix some bugs and then maybe there will be a reset or a brake.
but expect this to take a while, its not easy, since this stuff is quite huge.

Perhaps it is as you say, but we do not have the slightest desire to destroy the joy of the game for other players. Our clan intends to return to the path of peace. We want to wait to rebuild the forces of our opponents, and during that time get neutral locations in our territory. We count on a solid operation from the side other players and we want to give them the chance by giving them time to prepare. I have nothing against new round, but I think that there is no basis in the form of significant changes in the mechanics of the game.

This is true, until there are major changes ready, no point in patch unless the whole map was dominated by you guys. But since I'm taking a break from cRPG I should stop posting. :) It's kind of addictive.

This ^
Let people continue to futz around in Strat until there is some sort of serious update (or more likely, series of updates). New interface? New economy? EU/NA back to being separate?
There's no good reason to reset it in the present condition.
-
I will not be rebuilding my 'strength' to fight you Harpag. i'll just keep attacking anyone near me who is weaker xD
-
Do what you want, we are not interfering. We just want to finish "operation desert shit storm" and watch development of the situation. By the way, there are many clans, much stronger than we are, and they also leave living space for others, so please don't perceive us as a tyrants. If developers don't do a new round, you still have the possibility to develop your faction, taking new locations, gathering experience, etc. We really don't want more villages. Of course, if we or our friends will be attacked, we will show claws. Just play the game. Good luck.

Resetting Strat without gameplay changes won't do anything.
-
Why reset?, it just started to be fun(for me) ;P
-
Mod is once again alive and kicking
Ahaha nice filter

A reset would be pointless as we would just see the same alliance carebear up again and dominate the game. This is how you win Strat according to its current mechanics and so Greys/DRZ/etc would be stupid to break up a winning formula.
It could however be made a little more interesting with 1 very simple change; reduce the distance at which you gain the max goods bonus to just 60km.
As it stands there is only 1 trade route (North-West <> South-East) that is capable of generating 150 gold selling prices and there are only a limited number of fiefs useable with this route. This means that only 1 power block at a time can gain these prices and that power block requires control of half the Strat map to secure the route. The change above would mean that there is room for multiple power blocks, all gaining maximum goods prices. Traders would still have to travel in order to get good prices and factions would still require diplomacy to secure their trade routes. However the advantages of having a power block large enough to control half the Strat Map would be significantly diminished so that the smaller power blocks can stand on their own and have a good chance at actually surviving if attacked by a larger power block.
EDIT: Alternatively, reset and give every current Strat faction random starting fiefs according to their size and then see what happens. It could be interesting to see what happens when factions are forced to do diplomacy according to their circumstances instead of being able to set their diplomacy before the Strat round even starts :D

When there is a major patch with changes I believe a reset should happen.
Not before that however.

+1 very interesting idea about the farway bonus, now it just encourages badly the carebearing approach.
And i agree with most of the others, reset now would be pointless, just leave this strat as it is until you have a more interesting version
