Strategus Tease - v2.0

[Warcat]

If I raid a village, what stops the defender from just moving his whole army to me while we wait 24h for the battle, to crush me right after I burned down his houses?

", so any person coming along can buy/sell stuff to your fief

This one makes me thing the autotrader is stationary ;)

Every played single player native, its a problem there too. Raids take time.

Perhaps attacking an undefended fief takes less time? Say, a village has no garrison, it can be reinforced within 4 hours of the raid start, if it is not reinforced within this time - raid successful.

would still be a rather fast raid. It takes time to gather all of the things you want to steal, even without a defense. Villages would have a messenger ready to send a plea for help to the nearby castle.

hopefully only if they built some sort of upgrade. Capitals should be the only area seen in real time, every other holding by a faction should have its line of sight updated periodically. This period would range from every few hours, to every 5 min or so. You would lower this time by building advancements in the villages.

Wouldn't that be pretty cool? eh? eh???

I am not talking about reinforcments. I talk about being locked down for 24h while everone just moves my troocount*10 next to me to remove me from the map after the raid.
yes, in sp you could get catched sometimes, but without some "protection" for the raider he will be catched every time.

[Warcat]

Varying amounts of settlement improvements would be neat.

[Krakatit]

Maybe some afterbattle protection would help to solve this problem. Like you cant be attacked or be invisible on map for some time after battle.
Few minutes can be enough to get far enough to not get attacked imediately. Most propably you will be hunted by a bigger army and that means that it will be slower than you.

Time to reshoe the horses, Guards, looks like we're finally employed!

Indeed, it would.

This will either be fixed by slowing campaign map time so that 24 hours is comparable to the amount of time it takes to raid in SP. Or it could be fixed by allowing you to queue up where you want to go, and you instantly moving their after the raid is over.
First option sounds way better to me.

[Leiknir]

Now that only castles generate troops, can players still get 24 recruits a day in every fief?

[Warcat]

Sounds like you can only get any troops in castles.

[Leiknir]

He said

-troops can no longer be recruited from the population of fiefs like now

, sounds like he only means the pop converting of fiefs.
