Regarding the price for the equipment, Will the prices stay more or less the same as what we are paying now in cRPG?

About the complete wipe, I take it you mean all cRPG players loose their XP and Items and Gold and start from Zero. If that is the case, will there be only one wipe when Strategus restarts or will it occur every 6 months?

I guess you can wipe Strategus without a crpg wipe, depends if gold earn in crpg goes to Strategus.

Ninjas Ninjas.... its not a crpg wipe, but a Strategus wipe hes talking about....

After all the changes in Crpg, and retirement Crpg never needs a wipe cuz now its "balanced"

In the light of these wipe conversations i just wanted to state that the only possible way to go would be: New Strat accompanied by a full wipe of everything, otherwise it doesn't make any sense. Too much time has passed, people have too much money, gear, looms, etc, etc and the only fair solution would be when Strat comes everyone start from the same point: Zero.

About the bolded part: if you make a wipe every 6 months or so it would mean that by that time Strat was filled with full plate battles and such things, everyone having millions of gold and thousands of troops.....my question is: How fast do you expect people to grind big amounts of gold in Strategos and how will it look: peasant battles for a few weeks and then suddenly everyone has enough money for heavy armors, horses & "best" weaponry or will it be at slower ratio, in the beginning everyone is poorly equipped and it takes months to get rich enough to equip armies with plates, etc. In other words: how fast will the growth & development happen, at what rate ? On what factors will it depend ? Will it take one month to have big fully armored armies and will only the biggest and most active clans have a chance to achieve it before the next wipe ?

This is what I was talking about, Ginger.

I think not even chadz can tell you that.


Coolest answer would be : Strategus will never stagnate and everyone can go from peasant to knight (and vice-versa if you're not cautious, thus avoiding constant increase of OP armies).

Are you telling me cRPG and Strategus are not related at all?

I always thought we use our cRPG characters in Strategus.

As for your character you get XP fighting in strat battles, but a wipe on XP like u describe is Crpg and not Strategus even tho you use your character in strategus the wipes means ownership of fiefs gold and troops.

This might change a bit, but:
there will be about a dozen raw materials.
Every village has 3 materials it can produce.
the owner can shift the production balance.
the amount of resources produced is defined by the workers in the village.
the workers are other players who get a gold wage, defined and given out by the village owner.

the real item production will then happen in towns.
a town can produce up to 5 goods at the same time.
the village owner can set a smith.
the smith's skill defines of what quality (=heirloom) the produced item is.
the amount of workers in the town (=players) define how many items will be produced.

there will be other (individual) ways of creating weapons, but that will be very slow and not feasable to equip an army with it.

How would one gain smith's skill?
By adding new stat points? ( agi, cha)
Or is this tied to the individual ways of creating weapons, starting slow?

Being new to Crpg and not participating in the old strategus... All I have heard is how good it was, and how much everyone is looking forward to new release. I've heard it is alot like single player, but I don't really understand how this would work in the cRPG atmosphere. Do you challenge other people on the strategus field; then fight a battle with in cRPG? How are the 2 games connected? Could you break down the basics a little for me?

(Sorry if this is a noob question)


I understand the reasoning of giving a date of the release, but a time-frame would be nice (This Summer, Fall, Winter, Spring 2012, etc...)

Okay, here's a question for you. So far, from what I've seen, everybody seems to be talking about changes to the game mechanics, but have you cast an eye towards improving Strat's core functionality at all? Some example suggestions here: http://forum.c-rpg.net/index.php/topic,4939.0.html

I remember you saying Harald's prettification mods would be added, but are non-visual changes like those suggested above also being planned?
Don't.
