In my dreams ATS always wears red churburg. However, I think more red in general would help with that look.

I know, I considered going with the red tunics over mail, but I wanted to spare everyone's eyes... and use the gear that ATS would have used. If only we could still use the long awlpike with a shield....

Give the blacksmith a great Maul as smithhammer and a barmace (steelbars always ly around) and give him some mail (he has always some in stock for his lord ;) ) and you have a second strong class.
(don't want to argue with the artist.... just an idea)
My original plan was to give the blacksmith a great maul, but then I realised that there was not a single infantry class that used shields.

I'm guessing the requirements for period setting aren't exactly strict here?

Faction concept: The Legion
Loosely modeled on the classical Roman legion of the late republic. Strong medium infantry with some skirmishing capabilities supported by auxiliaries with different armaments, including archers and a cavalry wing. It'll be interesting to see whether players can make the most of the infantry's throwing weapons before closing in melee. I'm going with pretty good stats because their gear actually isn't all that great for the most part. Feel free to reduce if you find something OP.

Instead of throwing out some troop types i just want to throw out some ideas:

What about having a place on the crpg site where u can select and set the builds for all your personal 3 types of troops and then set the equipment for them with the correspondant upkeep? (and your commander of course).

Would look like this:

Hero : Lvl 31 , with the usual set of skills and atribute points of a lvl 31 on crpg. (maybe heros should be lower lvl than bots probably,but this all can be checked and changed,the point its the main idea)

Troops : Kind 1. Lvl 30 with the usual blah blah / Kind 2. bla bla bla /kind 3 bla bla.

Then u can choose from some sets of weapons armors etc for them, with a maximum gold of x per match( same for everyone). And ull pay the upkeep for that total amount ( being this reduced to like 10% or whatever dosent break actual crpg economy more than it is) in the end of each battle. The reward for winning must be set acordingly and cautiously too.

The idea its to personalize your leader(maybe the must be all have one helmet or armor in common for others to be able to recognize them), and ur troops before each battle or just sometimes when ure bored of them and want to try something new or other more extreme tactics,or just to complement your army with the army of a friend.

Another point im thiking of its: if people can use ranged weapons in their hero,theyre gona be some hero snipers that are gona fuck up the matches quick just with 3 shots which doesnt make sense in this kind of game ,so probably heros could not use ranged just to make sure an assasination of a hero must involve a risk for the other hero.

That was all. :)

The Company of Outcasts
(click to show/hide)
A stereotyphical evil faction. You can probably guess which cRPG clan this one is based on. If you can't, you're an imbecile.

Pros:
+ Heavy cavalry excels both on foot and mounted
+ Shielders fit nicely to defend a position due to throwing capability
+ Archers have fast bows with decent damage output, good for dealing fast damage for incoming attacks.

Cons:
- Non-shielder infantry is basically cannonfodder.
- Archers run out of arrows quite soon and become useless. They also have low health.

Total army cost of 168371 gold.
Unit points used:
(click to show/hide)

Outcast Ranged Ambusher: Ranged unit with a fast bow. Good melee capabilities, although low health.
(click to show/hide)

Outcast Shieldbrother: Heavily armored front-line soldiers with some throwing. Uses relatively short one-handed weapons.
(click to show/hide)

Outcast Wildling Conscript: Very light and very strong polearm unit. Perfect shock troop, but dies easily to ranged.
(click to show/hide)

Outcast Light Infantry: A twohanded skirmish unit with long weapons. Vulnerable to cavalry and ranged if caught in the open.
(click to show/hide)

Outcast Veteran Cavalry: Heavy Cavalry armed with both cleaver and a lance. Strongest and most feared unit of the Outcasts.

The Tartarus Horde

This is not a faction based on a specific historical period, but rather a faction consisting of classes i think will complement and support each other well while being fun to play and efficient on the field of battle. It is named after 'Tartarus', the deep abyss of hell and a place for the wicked in Greek mythology - this does not mean the classes will be greek-themed; it refers to their dark armors and intimidating weapons and how the Horde will be as mighty as the Titans of ancient Greece. Therefore, each of the different classes is also named after one of the 6 original male titans who were banished to Tartarus following the battle of Olympians and Titans.
The faction revolves around a core group of shielders as the main infantry group supported by efficient archers and cavalry. It will be a strong faction when played by coordinating commanders that can take advantage of the shielders ability to hold back infantry while archers and cavalry can pick out enemies and devastate armies. The faction does not have havoc-wrecking infantry capabilities though, and will be vulnerable to shieldbreakers, crushthrough and the like while also having a somewhat vulnerable yet crucial archer squad that will need some protection.
These are the proposed classes:

The Archers of Crius:
(click to show/hide)

The Shielders of Iapetus:
(click to show/hide)

Hyperion's Hoplites:
(click to show/hide)

Cronus' Cavalry:
(click to show/hide)

The Shield Breakers of Coeus:
(click to show/hide)

Total army cost: 171679 gold


This is of course open for suggestions and may be altered at some point in the future - but here is at least a 'first draft'; please let me know if there is something you think should be changed, both devs and fellow c-RPG players.

I personally like Apsod's idea a lot! Also just followed Tydeus' guideline on stats so i'm not sure if these classes are OP.

I think you did indeed do the totals wrong. For your cavalry I only get up to about 37k instead of 63k. I think the idea is you only add up the items they can use at one time. So if you have 2 horses, you use the mean price of these 2. They always use 1 melee weapon at a time, so if you have 3, you use the mean of those 3.

You can probably armour up quite a bit.  :P
