[SUGGESTION]Advent Strength Rework
Posted: Wed Feb 08, 2017 7:53 am
As it currently stands ADVENT forces grow far too strong far too quickly. Power Surge coupled with obscene dark events end up railroading the player. I am proposing a rework to help solve this problem:
1)At the start of the game, give ADVENT x number of strength tokens. These tokens will then be spread out across all regions(i.e lets say there are 10 regions and ADVENT has 20 tokens, each region would have 2 strength.)ADVENT can gain more through a new reinforcement dark event.
2)The number of tokens in a region dictates the strength of that region ONLY:
Strength 0: the player will only encounter basic ADVENT troops and maybe a drone or two.
Strength 1: all of the above with captains added
....
Strength 10: SECTOPODS AND GATEKEEPERS EVERYWHERE.
You get the idea.
3)Liberation of a region destroys the tokens placed there PERMANENTLY.(i.e you liberate a strength 5 region and ADVENT only had 20 tokens, Now they only have global strength of 15.)This will allow the player to ACTUALLY gain the upper hand on the strategy layer rather than always playing from behind
4)ADVENT can acquire more token through a Dark Event: Off World Reinforcement. If allow to complete will grant ADVENT x token to add to occupied regions. Should only take place in extremely high strength regions.
5)Give advent an HQ region with special dark events such as Off World Reinforcement.
