Suggestions Corner / Alternative advancement system after you retire

« on: July 27, 2011, 07:00:45 am »

I have an idea for an alternative advancement system after you retire.

It would be for your “presence on the Battle field” Aura/Regalness for lack of a better word. After you retire you get the option to upgrade your gear which will affect how you look on the battle field. I suggest that it gives you a small increase in xp gain ( and also people around you) but is offset my higher upkeep cost.

The options to upgrade your gear are cosmetic and don’t alter the stats.

Options include the following
•   Gold guiding (I would not allow first gens to buy gold gilded gear).
•   Blackening or Blueing of armour.
•   Black and white harness.
•   Garniture pieces ie reinforcing plates for pauldrons (shoulders) , albow pieces, pauldermittens , tilt buff’s for helms etc.
•   Mantels and crests for helmets.
•   Extra fluting for plate armours.
•   Weapons could have gilded handles in inscriptions on them.
•   Horse gear   
o   Engraved Saddles
o   Exotic fur saddle cloths
o   Gold spurs
o   Heraldic caparisons
You could add many different ways of cosmetically changing your character so that you can be an individual.

Any way just an idea
