A CoH type game where all armies are cute anime girls that kill each other by the hundreds/thousands. Upgrading units gives them new outfits and you can romance hero units between missions.

Managing a railhead during WWI. Trains need to be routed to appropriate platforms, ammunition, food, men, artillery and later tanks need to be unloaded and wounded need to be loaded onto outgoing hospital trains. You have limited sidings and porters/cranes/tractors to move stuff so it's time and chaos management plus you can buy upgrades between days.

Fantasy setting
The apocalypse is coming, and via elaborate conspiracy all the leading heirs of the realm (All female) are to be married via contest within the same stretch of 10 years
You, the spirit of an ancient hero have been reincarnated as part of the same conspiracy to unite the realm
The game is set into 4 stages
Adventurer
Challenger
Commander
King

Firstly you train, challenge dungeons and explore the world
Small group tactics and magic
There are secrets to find that could signifigantly aid you in the oncoming challenges
You may, if you show up to the right places, meet your future wives as cute lolis

Then, you enter the stretch where the challenges will take place
Each is a different set of puzzles, challenges and fights using the charecter you trained
All of the girls are at this stage 15-19, and you always meet and interact with all of them
If you have interacted with them before / Pick the correct dialogue they may try to nudge the games in your favor

In the Commander stage your military career starts in earnest and so does your relationship with the girls
You have limited time to spend with them and there are minigames you play with them. It is strongly implied that who-ever wins the minigame is more dominant during sex (Although whether that manifests as a gentle or rough domination depends on the girl) All of them will genuinely end up loving you no matter what
You stop rebellions, exterminate monsters and travel the map again seeking to fortify it from invasion
All the girls are in this stage 19-24 (Medium-Large breasts)

(1/2)

File: the tribal one.jpg (267 KB, 1196x2079)

267 KB JPG

>>2130068
In the final stage, the apocalypse actually occurs. Rivers turn red, monsters pour out of caves ruins and the ocean
You travel the map fighting a perpetually losing battle with the troops you recruited earlier. loyalists from each of the factions support you if you spent enough time with their wives (If not they remain stationary on the map)
After an in game year of this the demon lord actually spawns.
Endings are given based on if you truely defeat him in his real form, kill his mortal vessel or seal him
There are possible strategies where you send a team to gather relics to seal him or force him into his true form
The girls are at this stage all older (Slightly larger breasts), and you have some predetermined number of children with them based on how much time you spent with them

The girls are
The Pure of heart, affectionate one
The Tomboy knight you meet as an adventurer (Form that is feminine with abs)
The Barbarian tribeswoman (Not an amazon, a regular tribal woman)(Extremely submissive, slightly animalistic)
The Hatefuck villainess who you meet as an enemy (Extreme sexual tension during encounters)
The immortal wizard (500 year old virgin)(ages backwards to 14ish)(yes, you have children with her)
Your older sister
The artsy one you meet in disguise (Many times)

All of the dialogue has an "Interrupt" mechanic, where if you press a button at the correct time you can interject while someone is speaking. If you press the button where there isn't a scripted interjection it goes on a little timer so you can't spam it
This is a supplementation to the regular dialogue tree

The art is anime inspired, everyone is some form of hot (Including the men)
The dungeon crawling is inspired by osr dnd and is often has more challenge in risk management than combat. Almost all dungeoneering is limited in time and manpower, you'll need to split up to search everything

No, Civilization and Colonization have very different mechanics, and AC/BE are both a lot closer to contemporary Civilization titles. A Colonization on say Mars would be focused more around trade with and immigration from Earth. And like in ayrt's example, late game Colonization is you going full 1776 and declaring your independence. Having that but in the context of a sci-fi setting with multiple different vibes depending on how you governed your space colony would be lit as fuck.

>>2130071
Just because a game involves colonising a planet doesn't mean it's like Colonization.
Col is about establishing trade, local industry, dealing with the locals, and slowly becoming more and more self-sufficient and jaded with the homeland before you ultimately declare independence and then have to fight them off.

new Draw Your Own Units thread when?

A Panzer General 2-like set in the Napoleonic era.
>Turn based, hex based
>Company sized units
>Hand painted backgrounds
>Commanding forces from multiple nations
>Kino strategic map showing the full scope of the battle
>Terrain, weather, supplies, artillery support, overrun attacks
>Units who can persist throughout a campaign to become a bit stronger
PG2 uses battalion sized units but a reduction of scale down to the company would be better suited, especially since you are not performing any lightning blitz maneuvers across the countryside and have no aircraft or vehicles.
Just as your infantry and artillery groups can use organic transport, where they are represented by a wagon/truck/half track to move further at the cost of fuel and being vulnerable in this transit state until your next turn begins:
Infantry could form column when moving beyond their typical range, or passing through rough terrain above leaving them vulnerable and also wearing out supplies from the forced march.
The zone of control system that prevents units from simply bypassing each other would allow for blocking an easy cavalry overrun of your artillery, and let skirmishers screen for your forces. The hand painted maps would be perfect for a game in this era as well.
This game would sell at least one copy (me)

>>2129093
If you made this a kind of citybuilder where you manually expand your rail infrastructure and contend with stuff like bombing raids and the muddy season I would play the fuck out of it.

>>2129066
Wargame-like focused around infantry combat

Squads are split in 2, with a dedicated hotkey for switching which half of a selected squad you currently control. You can toggle how squads are divided based on their equipment, either keeping them symmetrical (good for moving around) or grouping by specialized equipment (ie machineguns in one half, rifles in the other). Most ranged weapons deal no damage at a distance and instead only suppress their targets. To eliminate infantry, you need to approach into close combat. Rifles excel at close combat, while specialized weapons suffer. When a squad is suppressed, it becomes extremely vulnerable to close combat, making it easy to eliminate.

Infantry combat revolves around suppressing your target with the 'firepower' half of your squad, and then closing and eliminating it with the 'assault' half.

Vehicles serve mostly to provide fire support for infantry, making it easier for them to suppress their target. Only select specialized vehicles (ie close support guns) can actually deal damage to suppressed infantry. Vehicles have armour, which reduces the damage they take from enemy fire, and hp. When a vehicle's hp is depleted, it suffers a critical and is mission-killed. If the killing blow came from a weapon that had less penetration than the vehicle's armour, the vehicle will be inert but recoverable and can be returned to service if repaired. If it's killed by something with higher pen, it's destroyed instead.

Deckbuilding will run the full gamut of unit types including engineering vehicles to recover crippled tanks, bridgelayers to create new paths in terrain, deployable minefields (set up during deployment phase) and mine breachers, deployable trenches and bunkers (set up during deployment phase) and offmap artillery where you draw up a fire plan in the deployment phase and select a timing for the barrage.

Aurora freedom and detail, combined with Shadow Empire for planetary gameplay with Nebolous graphics, Distant Worlds level of customizable automation and Stellaris/Star Ruler scaling ( but Aurora pace ).
Do this and i will buy million copies myself.

A deeply autistic space 4x fleet logistic simulator.
Basically I would just steal Sword of the Star's homework but make the actual ship design and fleet management aspects tediously complicated and indepth.

Ships need to make tradeoffs between carrying more weapons or carrying more ammo for their weapons. Different types of weapons require different kinds of ammo, crew requires food and living space, increasing ship mass increases inertia which makes the ship handling more sluggish or require stronger engines (which burn more fuel) to counteract. Crew requirements increase as you add more modules and capabilities to a ship, and a slider lets you control how much crew you actually put in choosing to undercrew to safe space on food and living space at the expense of efficiency, or overcrew to provide redundancy in case of casualties.

Fleets need supply ships to support them, you use sliders to balance their carrying space between fuel, different ammo types and spare parts for on-field repairs. Your empire's production infrastructure has sliders to produce these resources, as well as civilian products, in differing ratios based on either the overall empire's needs or the needs of that particular region and corresponding fleets, with each requiring different ratios of raw materials extracted from planets and asteroids. Logistic chains distribute these raw materials and finished products around planetary stockpiles across your empire (controlled by sliders). Orbital infrastructure is built up and developed to base fleets and support their operations. Officers are trained to lead individual ships, modifying their crew's performance based on their attributes, with fleet admirals promoted from the ranks of your ship captains to apply bonuses across entire fleets

Your government type emerges naturally from your policies and actions in game, with various bonuses and penalties (ie authoritarian regimes needing fewer crew amenities but less efficient economies).

>>2130278
Not a fan of this type of sci fi. The nature of space doesn't lend itself to naval style battles like they are always depicted.
In space you would deploy weapons against your enemy that would not arrive for a life time. If you have faster than light travel, you would also just make faster than light superweapons. The only limiting factor in the war of space is detecting your enemy, then it's simply a matter of deleting them.
This could be cool, but instead we get Age of Sail warfare with fighter jet dogfights and gay aliens that are just humanoids. Worst setting.

>>2130373
I remember arguing with idiots like this in like 2004 back when making wildly bad takes about space was the cool thing for undergrad engineering students.

FTL travel is magic. Nobody is interested in all the ways you'd break physics if you had physics breaking magic. It's an easily understandable contrivance to enable a setting that explores civilization and warfare across interstellar distances, not a thesis on e=mc^2.

A Fallout themed RPG RTS similar to Fallout Tactics. Morality is a post apocalyptic world. It would happen 50-75 years after the events of Fallout Tactics, which is not official canon. The map painter part would be similar to either the old maps of California or Old World Blues mod for HOI 4. There would be random missions, more than just doing drive byes on mutants or raiders. Specifically it would be a West Marches DnD campaign set in the world of Fallout after the main story was complete.

It would play similar to Company of Heroes 2 in the battlefield, so basically zone control. Every now and then there would be missions or encounters that would use RPG skills like Speech, Lockpicking, Sneak, Repair, ect.

It would have a set amount of missions on custom handcrafted maps, custom anime handcrafted movies like Myth and Myth 2 Soulblighter, Fallout 1 2 Tactics. After that the map would revert to random encounters and sandbox play in a West Marches campaign (GTA free roam would be counted West Marches).

The factions would be diverse like Old World Blues, with new factions being made every month or 2. Factions that are liked can purchased with new factions every month and old ones taken out.

I wrote this out to try stuff out before playing the F4 dlc and I was dead on so much it looked like I had copied Nuka world dlc. Down the blue lights cleaning the atmosphere in Far Harbor lol fail quickly it. Bethesda did not try hard on it. They made it as bland and form fitting as possible if I could legit nail so much of the game world.

So CoH 2 with Fallout units like Paladins or NCR Rangers where I have to keep them alive and experienced with character sheets on custom maps. The RTS sector battles will have units with set stats, hero units with customizable character skills.

So HOI 4 OWB map and factions where I autoresolve, then custom battles where mutant power armor spam and faction personality are things. Then RPG Fallout single player story.

>>2132118
Sorry for typos I hit max characters.

The rotating factions would sell like Rust cosmetics, where the player base can vote on what is sold in the store. With similar not balanced factions there can be new content introduced all the time which is basically cosmetic. Players can pick or skip what DLC or cosmetics they want, customize factions, also a battle pass which will fund servers or continued support. It is much cheaper than making a mmo.

citybuilder/lite rts set in antiquity but you're playing as goths or celts or nubians or whoever and you exist in the shadow of rome
rome's aggression (how badly it wants to invade you) and caution (how willing it is to risk an invasion) are important metrics to keep track of
you can either attempt to romanize (but rome will never see you as fully roman and always keep the idea of invading in their back pocket) or resist roman imperium (which of course is pretty fucking difficult)
and all that while you have to balance rivalries with local powers, managing your harvests and shit, etc

Firebase. You are assigned to construct a fire support base in Vietnam. It’s a first person game where you, as the commanding officer, begin by surveying the area via maps, recon photographs, and finally a helicopter flyover.

After site selection, you determine the initial layout and construction. Being the gung ho type, you are the first man on the ground assisting the engineers in construction and security. You make on the fly decisions and manage men and material under constant enemy threat.

Once the nascent base is constructed, you manage and reinforce your new home in response to new threats, intel, internal issues, and directives from command.

Tutorial would come in two phases. The fall of Dien Bien Phu would serve as combat training as you, in a batch of fresh reinforcements, fight hand to hand, with small arms, and operate crew served weapons. You would ultimately take command of a small detachment until you are ultimately KIA.

Second phase of tutorial would be strategic planning at officer school. You would execute various missions and complete tasks in a heavily controlled version of the main campaign as your character “visualizes” his future assignment.

Ultimately, as the war in your sector draws to a close, you must successfully manage the withdrawal of troops and scuttling of the firebase.

Player units consist of:
>Serfs/Peasants/Labourers. Pretty much all of them are resource gatherers and often practically helpless. They are not directly controlled, but rather are a resource that can be assigned to buildings to make them functional.
>They can be assigned to Military/Guard buildings that with proper stored weapons/armors can outfit them as soldiers/guards, but their use has a limited range from the building, and their strength is one of the most basic in the game. Mostly fodder to pad out your defense/offense.

>Heroes. These are 'ascended' Serfs who've joined a guild/Hero Recruitment Building and become unique units. They have their own unique names, personalities, inventories with obtainable gear and skills that can be improved as they level up. Can also attract random or special heroes that would otherwise be unavailable to obtain from outside the kingdom using special rewards/buildings.
>You are also unable to directly control them, and most of the interactions the player will have with them is trying to keep them happy to remain useful and avoid them leaving or tearing up your kingdom, using quests/bounties with rewards. to get them to go somewhere, attack/defend something, or just don't tear the place up.

>Player Hero. Pretty much the only unit under the direct control of the player (except when under the effects of mind control or other status effects), can be grown as a unique class and use the same gear/skills other heroes have. Might only be available on certain game types.

>Other. Mostly consist of temporary summons from the player's or heroes magic spells. Would probably also be unable to be controlled by the player except on maybe certain units or the like.

>Buildings are made using resources. Resources are obtained from buildings hosting labourers. Labourers are obtained by building homes where Labourers live. Labourers live by spending resources (food/other goods made in buildings).
>Eventually you can upgrade buildings with resources so they can produce more resources while using more labourers.
>Special buildings can be made to make special resources from basic resources. Potential chains wouldn't be so many, as there are other aspects of gameplay we also want to juggle.

>Defensive buildings mostly consist of Walls, Towers, Gatehouses, Garrisons, and the Keep itself.
>Towers and Gatehouses serve as storage/spawn points for Labourers serving as guards. They will man walls attached to them and patrol player buildings in their vicinty looking for enemies to defeat/keeping crime down. They can be upgraded to increase their HP, range, and amount of labourers they can host.
>Walls are the basic defensive structure, they allow you to block enemies from instantly getting to your buildings/defenseless labourers.
>Garrisons are used as the storage/spawn point of soldier camps, mobile buildings that can be placed away from your base and allow soldiers to guard/attack an area away from your base.
>The Keep serves more or less the same as the Palace from Majesty/Keep froM Strongold, is the first and most essential building in your base and spawns the first and most basic of units. It can be upgraded like most buildings and it can also receive attackments to it like other buildings can, expanding its capabilities.

Gameplay:
>Most important aspect should be the defense and management of the kingdom.
>Preventing resource/service shortages that might make labourers unwilling or incapable from working and even rebelling against you.
>Building a strong resource economy and using that to increase the amount of Heroes in service to your kingdom in order to defeat the enemy, all while keeping these same heroes happy and in-like without destroying/bankrupting your kingdom.
>Completing the main objective to achieve victory.

>Victory is most of the time relatively simple. Defeat all enemies on the map, destroy the enemy Keep, kill the enemy Hero ruler.
>Customs scenarios can have custom victory conditions. Make a hero deliver a specific item to the Keep. Have certain amount of a specific kind of Hero happy, build your kingdom to a specific size/build a specific building).

>Not sure if possible how a campaign could work. It'd be either a set of custom missions one after another, a set of separate but grouped scenarios within one setting, or perhaps a campaign map with some overworld management features, but the last one might be too ambitious/unnecesary for it to work.

I had Majesty 2 in my head as a game I would like to make or draw heavy inspiration from. There was nothing I could add to make a spiritual successor. It failed quickly, which is how it is supposed to work, because I would just need to get the license and a Scottish narrator. Only Tropico had a better narrator. I just wanted to play Majesty 3. I switched over to the Fallout universe after playing OWB and Tactics to try out my game dev skills.

If one can figure out how to spiritually make Majesty 3, without just outright making Majesty 3, there's an original IP there.

Wargame: Warhammer 40K: Total War
Tactical battles akin to the Wargame series but with the scale and strategic map of the Total War franchise but in the Warhammer 40K universe.
But made by competent developers with a gigantic budget and with an eye to the 'rule of cool' and prioritizing fun over autism.

>>2133854
I can see a 40K game in the Wargame mold be perfectly fine especially if they go really autistic on the units. That's something I liked about Final Liberation although it obviously haven't aged all that well.

Speaking of: a 40K Epic scale. Very low on detail, but battles involve formations with thousands of troops in each. I think that'd be a great way to capture the scope and scale of some of the more absurd battles in 40K.

>>2133756
So how's Foxhole?
It has overall positive reviews, but I've read some very bad ones concerning the moderation team and overall maintenance of servers?

Roguelike RTS.
You choose a culture, get both generic and unique upgrades related to it. As well as some tech being locked out (North Europeans don't get war elephants unless you get the mammoth preservation prestige)
Empire Earth style granular progression from caveman to cyborgs.
You can face multiple scenarios like the "New World" situation, where you have a big but low tech empire and then the conquistadores arrive with gunpowder and horses, as well as plagues that can spread among your units and villagers.
You can get a lot of upgrades for each era, to the point you can have a buffed bronze age empire that makes upgrading to your non-buffed Iron Age meaningless until you want to blitz to medieval.

>>2133938

If Relic is actually working on a 40K TW and actually delivers a quality product, that’s basically what we’ll get

If you take the Total War tactical battle formula, but have less rigid and formation-driven unit design to fit the setting, and improve the engine to have more fluid unit control and responsiveness (ie dont have to wait 30 seconds for a ranged unit to slightly change where it’s facing to resume firing), it would at least be close enough

Lord knows theres more than enough stat autism in Total Warhammer to match Wargame’s unit cards, and with the single entity experiments with heroes and units like dragons and steam tanks you can definitely get the scale of lots of small infantry squads in a big battle with huge mech units and tanks and stuff

>>2129093
Did you ever look into last train home? I know it is not a city builder but it has some elements that might please you if you like trains.

>>2129066
It's like Sengoku Rance but instead of traditional JRPG masquerading as strategy it's an actual strategy game along the lines of the WDS games. It will be pornographic and it will be niche enough that no one will play it.

>>2134256
So, I can expect that next game that's exactly the same but medieval to be just as bad, right?

>>2134557
it depends entirely on who the devs listen to
if they listen to their fanatical autists again and base the game around their wishes, 95% of the game will be inaccessible to newer players again

>>2134559
what are your concrete problems with the game tho

> enforce strict discord communism

>>2134574
>the game is controlled by a majority of a minority now.

It means the game slowly dies each month because new players are not allowed to enter or constructively input. Min maxers are notorious for killing off the host game.

> enforce strict discord communism

It means the game is dying. Run a poll, Would you rather have CS Go were all guns are lethal, or play a mil sim that will be even more shit in 6 months?

>this just reads like youre a social retard

He recognizes mob rule and realized whatever gains he might make in Foxhole will be wiped if the min maxxers cannot monopolize an edge he develops. It's a game not Wall Street.

I was banned from the game. I reached out to have it appealed and they refused. The reason? I tried to stop cheaters on my own faction from driving resources to the enemies side. The resources lost were the kind that took players hours or a day of grinding to build. The cheaters worked in a group and thus convinced my team mates I was a cheater and was mass reported. I did this all without harming a single "friendly" and stored them in a near by warehouse where my actions were documented on the warehouse submission logs. It didn't matter I still got banned. Not temporarily suspended. Just banned.

This was a fun game for me. I taught a lot of new players and made some cool experiences. But take my warning to heart when I say don't openly fight cheaters and don't argue with clan members with a fragile ego who like to use their limited report tickets to mess with people. Just report and ignore and hopefully something good happens. Until the devs realize the reporting method is being used to grief I'm afraid this will be a permanent issue.

Squad-based, turn-based tactics RPG set in the Metal Gear universe. Basically a Metal Gear Xcom-like. There's several possible settings and time periods for the games ranging from MSF mercenary work to FOXHOUND clandestine operations, although I think Diamond Dogs / Outer Heaven would probably be the most familiar setting. It'll have the classic feel of Metal Gear with military realism combined with the occasional sci-fi and supernatural elements. I am aware of Metal Gear Acid but this would be quite different, focusing on entire squads and without the card system.

You manage a squad of soldiers, decide their entire loadout including things like what camouflage they wear, and send them on missions. Obviously there will be stealth mechanics with the classic Metal Gear "!" alert if one of your units gets spotted. Individual soldiers can specialize in certain things like CQC, medical, sniping, and maybe even some soldiers with psychic powers. Obviously there would be a wide variety of missions in many different environments. Maybe the ability for your squad to fulton out soldiers to be recruited as well with many of the Mother-base managing mechanics from Peace Walker / Phantom Pain like RnD.

I would also want there to be an autistic level of detail that affects how players play the game, for example if they were sending their soldiers on a mission against Soviet or Soviet-supplied troops then players would probably equip their soldiers with rifles that use 7.62mm so they can scavenge ammo, likewise if they were going against US/US-backed troops then players would equip 5.56mm rifles to use looted ammo. Along with things like weather affecting visibility and movement and leaving footsteps in the mud/snow ("Who's footprints are these?", MGS1). Players would have to make sure they disable or move out of range of anti-air before they call in a chopper for exfiltration/resupply like in MGSV. Troop morale and inter-personal relationships would also be a thing.

Been thinking about a civ-like game but instead of the direct historical likenesses,boardgame mechanics, or fundamental gameplay that hasnt changed since civ 1, i wanted to do something where you take the role of some kind of old testament god who is merely informing a population, without any ties to existing history. Think of it as a godgame based off of historical accounts but not actually using any historical references. So for example you could have religion, nomads, paganism, etc. As concepts and mechanics but without reference to existing nomads or pagans in history. Id want the gameplay to be a lot more abstracted than civ: most mechanics just revolve around the groups of population of the bloodline you have taken as covenant or whatever, so things like having your people be roving nomads or living amongst other nations are possible mechanics instead of "place a city here you have to." A lot of decisions about your people could be framed as some chosen prophet asking you about what should be done about X, and your response determine how your "civ" is going to play.

Taking inspiration from "age of wonders 4" and "Sovl"/warhammer tabletop

A big procedurally generated map of the world with fog of war etc... where you move armies.

An interface for kingdom management where you balance economy, internal stability/external renown, and army development.

EXTREME customization on units
racial makeup (heat/cold/plains/woods clothing adaptation if realistic, whatever goes in fantasy)

Weapon/armor/mounts combination (there's a limited number of objects your kingdom can produce reliably enough to outfit an army but you can mix and match them to create any combination of unit you wish)


Once an expedition is engaged you can build your army on the spot from an army builder like a warhammer list among the units you prebuilt in the kingdom interface.
rare units get a kingdom/army wide hard limit on quantity

Fixed points short offensive/defensive campaigns where you can recruit extra mercenaries/local militia and progress battle to battle until you are either defeated, retreat with the spoils or victoriously conquer enough of the region to consider it yours.

Turn based battles with orders, fog of war and a decently challenging AI. With customizable battlefield terrain and defences for the defender.

Commander stats that influence how much of the enemy army composition you know beforehand, bonuses to traverse the campaign nodes and events, plus battlefield effects more than their direct combat power.

An incredibly expansive amount of weapons and equipment to make each army feel unique.

>>2129066
Restaurant management sim. But it takes place in a world where burgers and shit are serious fucking business and you do everything from resorting to extremely illegal sabotage to straight up shooting up or bombing your competitors while they try to do the same to you.

RTS based on Hexen's world.

4 brutal and evil factions battling for power in long epic campaign, also featuring a mysterious cloaked elf looking character coming from a different world.

Factions are:

-Legion: brutal no-nonsense melee based faction with elite troops with peak physical condition, terrifying magic weapons, war machines and rideable beasts.

-Church: scummy/scheming faction with lots of dispoasable fanatic militias and powerful agents/spies/propaganda. Uses mercenaries, assassination, political corruption and doesn't shy with using captured Serpent Riders weaponry/artifacts along with (supposedly) holy relics.

-Arcanum: mysterious heavy magic leaning faction, extremely secretive, uses devastating and horrifying magics, summons and artifacts to win battles

-Serpent Riders: swarm faction with lots of ill equipped human cultists, horrifying beasts like centaurs and Ettins, undead and stuff. Good at propaganda and subversion, kinda like the Church.

A top down adventure real time rpg with unlimited companions. You can click and drag and organize and command units and individual heroes, but you still navigate the game from the perspective of the central leader. Construction and resource management exists like in most RTS's and city builders, but there is only one large world map with a few dedicated interiors such as caves or other dungeons. Every NPC has a randomly generated name and stat block based on their job and background, with wants and needs such as thirst, hunger, and health. Let's say you take over a town of peasants. You can elect one of your companions to be the mayor, and they will manage the town independently so you don't have to worry about it, but you can step in at any moment to micromanage, so long as you are there to do it. Otherwise commands can be sent to your settlements/field commanders/spies/explorers through letters, but an in-game messenger has to deliver it with a chance of being captured or killed or simply dying from an accident on the road. You can ignore the leadership mechanics and simply be a hedge knight or a thief or bandit if you want, traveling the world with a squire or a small party. Various factions and the NPCs that lead them will act independently and the world will change because of their actions. The timeline of the game will be different each playthrough based on rng and your own actions. You can manually select the specific weapons and gear your units wear and use, down to the individual npc. The feeding and housing of the people under your command will be an important challenge, as is the maintenance of morale. There are no traditional class archetypes, only jobs which determine what an npc specializes in, but any npc can do any task with varying results, whether it's farming, hunting, smithing, soldiering, guarding, or whatever else.

Speaking of mechs, another idea is a Battletech sort of game with elements of This is the Police set in the Patlabor universe or a new property that features smaller scale mechs operating in a civilian setting. As a commander of this unit, you get to outfit your officer's mechs to deal with the situation at hand. Fighting against two drunken construction workers having a dumb mech battle in the middle of a public park will not require the same amount of responding power as a group of highly advanced corporate mercs wielding the latest in military gear. You also have to deal with funding and public image; You might spend a lot of money to buy the latest gear but if you accidentally crush too many cars or blow a 37 mm size hole in someone's house, then the press will have a field day and there's going to be protests.

Also Company of Heroes; The Liberation of the Philippines. Most World War 2 games set in the PTO deal with the various island battles and while those are interesting, the Philippines offers just a bit more variety. The battle of Manilla was one of the few urban engagements the US military had with the Imperial Japanese. There can be a mission where you have to defend against Operation Te, a Japanese airborne drop that tried to capture a couple of airfields. Liberating POW camps etc. All good stuff. And you could get Burmese DLC where you can play as the Commonwealth or China (even though the Chinese front can be an entire game in of itself)

more scaled to actual medieval campaigns rather than just a singular battle*

RTS that actually focuses on making strategic decisions, not tactical micro. Every single unit has a rudimentary AI. They will take cover, advance or retreat, use equipment and abilities etc on their own depending on their orders. You can give orders to your subcommanders and they will try to figure out ways to achieve it with the troops assigned to them.
I believe this will become a standard feature in the future just like how things like how other micro reducing features like attack move became standard and expected.

I played a bit of CoH2 but I'm more familiar with 1 so I envision the commanders for America to be SOG for small elite infantry squads with Montagnard support to out guerilla the guerillas a la Tiger Force with effective defensive options, a Air Cav commander emphasizing speed and mobility and a armored commander for brute force. For the NVA, a VC commander is a given. Perhaps not as well equipped as their NVA regular counterparts but quieter and stealthier to keep enemies on their toes and they can use tunnel networks. Other options could be that armored captain who has access to the latest in Soviet monkey models and a propaganda/defense captain who can call in off map artillery or SAMs.

StarCraft 3, but:
>Return to the OG/BW era of edgy, gritty looks and graphics
>Graphics are stylized to look like it was an adult graphic novel ala Sin City...but with a lot of blood and gore happening on screen
>Anything related to SCII gets retconned since SCII had a horrible story an overwhelming majority of people would want to forget about
>Terrans, Zerg and Protoss will be made even more asymmetrical and geared towards specific areas to make them great at things others aren't that good
>Terrans and Protoss can now build either walls that can be mounted with ranged units (Terrans) or energy walls that allow allies to phase through while damaging enemies that hit them (Protoss), while Zerg get Creep upgrades that beef up Zerg on their home turf
>All three now have unique gimmicks for each other
>Half the Terran vehicle roster can alt-form into different modes that further increase Terran survivability and now all their structures can not only fly but also can lift with any build addons.
>Zerg have thrice the units because mutations and such, but all more advanced units are specialists that need support from the rest of other units
>Protoss get modules that either enhance their units gimmicks or give them new attacks/abilities
>The Purifiers become a playable faction and they are a case of crapshoot AI that wants to purge all organic life
>Campaign happens during the 2nd UED incursion, but this time they brought a far larger force with all their up-to-date gear
>Terran Campaign focuses on James Raynor who simply wants his dad back and shoot Kerrigan for good measure (Jim kills Kerrigan and James gets her baby clone)
>Zerg Campaign happens years later where you play as Stukov who finds out the UED got much worse and he has to now play the hero to Terrans despite what he is
>Protoss Campaign is Zeratul and Artanis going through shit and trying to fix this whole mess (luckily ghosts of Tassadar and Fenix give raise their spirits with hope of the future)

There was a game released recently I don't remembe the name of, which failed miserably peaking at about 20 players. The game was something in the lines. You failed the assignment.

Star Wars Empire at War: Forces of Corruption mod "Pacific at War"

Forget sci-fi, we go for good ol' WW2. In the Pacific.

Instead of space ships, you have battleships, aircraft carriers, submarines and so on
Instead of stormtroopers and AT-AT you have GI's and Sherman tanks

The pros with this game is that you have both naval battles, land battles, both have an air component, and you can manage your armies and fleet on a strategical map kinda like a Total War. You build your forces, you send them to combat.

Instead of planets you have either open sea or islands
I had designed the campaigns for both factions (Japan and USA), several smaller campaigns "Pacific Conquest" to depict the battles for Guadalcanal and so on, and lots of free skirmish maps (with sea mines to make passible-but-risky areas mimicing the asteroid fields from the base game, tide waves to mimic the nebulae and so on) or "historically accurate" battles

I have a lengthy design document but not the time nor the knowledge to make this whole thing by myself

>>2167637
because i ran out of letters kek
if anyone is interested to get the design document for whatever reason lmk and i'll send it
either here or on discord (aquayaya)

I love you anon, a game of mass warfare and bloodshed with anime girls is exactly what I want to make.
I just can't settle on the genre and setting between m&b style napoleonic girls or a ww2 third person shooter or really anything in between.
anime girls in uniform killing each other is a game that must be made

>timeline spanning from the Greco-Persian wars to the 30 years war
Are you planning to have Civ-style turns that are some predetermined arbitrary number of years each? Because if the turns are even one year per turn that's gonna be a horrifically long campaign with that timespan.

Hear me out
We take nexus the jupiter incident, amputate everything past mission 4. Strap it to terra invicta, but remove everything bad about it. Give it just a sprinkle of homeworld scale and ancient mysticism when you start unveiling ancient mysteries.

still waiting on my paycheck for giving tall my last ideas

but anyways

1. blizzards take on GSG for warcraft 4
2. x rated moba with gross out humanr and sex
3. coomer based rts where people have sex hold hands and kiss instead of killing each other
4. anthropomorphic food tbs/commandos/rts
5. rts based on inside the body antropomorphic like osmosis jones
6. World of Darkness turn based battler where you can either choose between werewolves, vampires, changelings, etc.....
7. an rts where you ask AI to issue order and based on how well they are trained determines how succcessful they are. you basically teach an ai how to play an rts
8. tower defense based off of pooping

dawn of war company of heroes clone but star wars instead
mugen supremely modable rts where all the classic rts units are imopirted (nod,gdi,orcs,human,protoss)
