Battle Loot

[qubit_XPc]

Every weapon, shield, horse, and cargo should be available to loot at the end of a battle. Each type of party should have an assigned cargo (just like how forest bandits weapons differ from Dark Raiders), which we can all steal! yey!
And the Sea Raiders should have salt, cause, you know, they come from the sea!

HAH, yea right, then it would be so easy to afford everythin

there has been some arguments that the equipment might become useless during battle, but not when im throwin ROCKS at people, or gettin nonstop headshots......

The assigned cargo being available for us to take would be a good random event - however, every weapon, shield, horse, and cargo every time? It would be an embarassment of riches!

I'm all for the occasional windfall - sometimes we get some gold denars - but I would rather it be occasional.

Plus, I'd like some money sound effects when we get gold denars as loot maybe that "kachinnng" sound effect my girlfriend makes when I cash my paycheck.

I think it's because he's from Finland. It means "G'day mate" in Finnish.

I do like the idea of picking up the falchion from the guy you just shot in the face

*Has scary mental image of pirates holding bags over the bow of the ship to collect salt* I burst out laughing when i read that.

Yes, I don't think Vikings or pirates really gave much thought about salt. It was all about the loot back then and keeping it real. Rape pillage and plunder and where the Hell is my salt? Nevermind the salt lets kill some monks and steal some golden crosses. Harrr!

how about also adding loot from your allies?

say theres a battle between vaegir warparty and swasdian warparty...
you help swasdians
all vaegirs die
all swasdians die
your party lives...
in current code, you get vaegir loot....what would be good, you get BOTH vaegir and swasdian loot, since they both died

Just make like :
1- some looted items got damaged (broken prefix meaning they would be less worthy).
2- they were treated as stolen things that the only ppl who would buy them would pay veeeeeeeeeeeeeeery little.(That would encourage ppl to get only the items they would use or trade for some food )
3- your men stole the equips for themselves (Those greedy b*stards)
4- you are such a fag that the only things you can touch were not stained by some innocent refugee's blood! (Plz no harm intended =P )
5- You are just too lazy or tired after the battle to scavenger for some gear between the dead bodies
Okay! That was my ideas to avoid the "I got nuff money to buy this freaking Calradia TWICE!" and still be able to get all the equip of enemies.
Ciao!

id agree with that post above^

I also sometimes wonder where my troops get their equipment, like, in one battle my hired blade had scale mail (well, that's what it looked like) and the next (with no town between and only bandits) he had plate armour.

Through mail order of course...
