Forgive me, I know this has been discussed, but I can't find where. I want to flesh out the idea a bit if it is ok.
As it stands now, it is excruciating to wait for troops to be trained. Until I got to superior barracks it has been no fun at all. Even at a level 14 barracks, it takes forever. We all know how hard the enemies get as you get further from your town. It gets to the point where people might get a battle or two every few days....and that just isn't fun.
Along with this issue, everyone has the problem of not having enough trading partners. I think the two issues are interrelated.
If we could have MUCH shorter training times, then we could learn from fights we lose and rebuild troops quickly. Then we could win more battles and get through more provinces. If we could get through more provinces then we could have more discovered neighbors and thus more trading partners. That means this would also solve the problem of inactive neighbors. You'd have hundreds or thousands of players to trade with at some point. All you would need to do is play a little more.
I understand the issue is that the devs don't want us to sail through the tech tree in a few hours because we have tons of knowledge points from winning all these fights, but that could be solved too.
What if it was a lot easier to train troops, the fights didn't get so terribly hard until you spread out a lot further, but you got fewer KP from fights? Say, a half a KP or a quarter? That way we could still have the hard time of getting through the tech tree, but we could have a lot more fun crushing the heads of those nasty green Orcs! (Or whatever you humans destroy in battle)
I think it would be cool if players could possibly discover all of the world map at some point. It might take a year or so, but it would be possible. As it stands, I don't think anyone can really ever discover more than 2% of the world map before the fights get impossible.
What does everyone think? Is this a stupid thought?
