Home Continent Idea

[Nereid]

I like the BWG in which allows us to play on different continents and not on the same ones anymore but I have an idea to add a since of accomplishment and some solutions to the cant get into sanc because of lack of bases to the game. Before we had 3 home continents. I propose that every empire have ONE home continent thats directly connected to the sanc via wp and make the rest BWG. Since we cant have sanc strikes an empire could fight its way to the enimies one home continent and winning it give a feel that you have taken your enimies capital or home territory *even tho its not the sanc*. Allow the home continent to connect to a few other continents and not allow boardcasting to it so the enimey has to go through the continent its connected to and attack it. Might want to vary the continents that each empire has a different continent type like one empire has a temperate continent, another has snow, and another has desert has its home continent just to add some variety. This would also give each empire a strong hold point against enimey empires if its current lossing.

I hated home continents. Everytime an invasion would get going, some cr5 would global "Ishundar is being hacked! We need help fast!" and EVERYONE would rush back to find just a few enemies hacking a base. Or how about the times we'd start getting mobbed on one home continent, and no one would leave to start an invasion and relieve some of the pressure because "it's our home continent!!!" :rolleyes:

Just fix the damn BWGs and forget home continents altogether! :)

Home Continents = suck.

I agree with the above poster above me, CR5's were obsessed with Home Continents. "Ghost Hack on Amerish, everyone please recall off of the continent you're winning on to kill the one infiltrator at Amerish!"

[Cryptica]

not worth it. home conts aren't important

[Kam]

They would be cool if you didn't have those dam CR5's so obcessed with them.

Indeed, I prefer this new form of strategy, where important members of Empires select 'home' continents and defend their preference.

[Rbstr]

but they don't do that they just attack amerish or Hossin all the time and let us lose everything else so we can't warp anyware and have to hart. we need ot have atleast one continent that we have a constant link to

[TheN00b]

Well, Rbstr, I dunno about Markov, but on Emerald, the BWG system seems to work excellently, even given the fact that the vast majority of our CR5's ages <8.

the lack of home continents makes the game better. this forces the population to fight on different continents constantly. before i dont know anyone else remembers this but there would be fighting on only a handful of the continents availble. i remember fighting onc cyssor everyday for like 2 weeks straight. "crap not cyssor again ugh!"

Yep, except it was always Ishunder for TR.
