Maps, Expansions

[SCopE]

Make A Land Border, When They Reach it, They Have A List Of Travel Spots/ Destinations.

This Means You Could Make A Middle Eastern Style Zone, Where Scimitars Of Persia, Afgan Rifles, Parade Axes Could Be Found.

This Would Make Alternate Races Available, With Zones Fighting EachOther.
Maybe A Selectable Start Zone Of Some Description?
Maybe Different Faces/ Clothes Available For Each Location?


Ok.

Maybe Also Make An Expansion Weapon, Lets Take A Bow For Instance, Where Parts Can Be Added To It, Such As SCopE's, Reinforcements, Braces, Stronger Strings?


UPDATED

This Would Give A Good Story To The Nomads.

that would be really nice to add to the game And add a lot more depth to the game

 

[SCopE]

maybe a starter stick which can be modded with an axehead, lengthener, point, scyth, reinforcer.

it would be lovely to customise weapons in that way, and make the player feel unique.

I like your idea a lot, but that sort takes the point of having period weapons out of context...

It adds a lot more customizing factors, but really in the time setting, did the average guy make his weapons in such a way?

I think that would take a bit to much programming to implement, even though the theory behind it seems simple.

It might be cool for a M&B2 if that takes more of a roleplaying aspects and less action driven.

 

[SCopE]

ah, but we are not the "average" guy are we, eh?

ok heres another new idea

crafting special weapons for sale/ use.

customizing weapons would be awesome... but you said scopes on bows? I don't think they had scopes back then, m8. Maybe better strings (w/e they're called lol) that make your arrows do more dmg cause they propell the arrow at higher speeds, but not scopes.

I would like the stick thing though. You could go to a blacksmith and buy axeheads, spearheads, and all kind of things, and for a fee he could combine them with a certain %age of failure, which would lead to either you breaking your 'stick'/attatchment or just getting them back, but not combined. This would add lots of customization. You could also get unique addons from quests, which would look different from all the others of its type, and have a special attribute like +5 Attack Speed or +3 Attack Range.

For bows I can't see much customization except for the strings, the wood they're made of, and all kinds of stuff like that.

Not a lot for swords, except you could buy a hilt (1 handed or 2 handed) and buy a blade for it that you like, and get it attatched for a fee. You could make a flamberge

Back then you could get a custom order from a blacksmith, couldn't you? Go in there and say "Put this blade on this hilt and I'll pay you 1000 denars."

There could also be a visual thing you could add to this. Say you could go to an emblem shop, purchase one you like, and than have it put on your armor or shield. It would act as an "addon" and make you look cooler, but not change the item's stats.

I can see a lot of things that could be done with this idea, but I can also see that it would take a long time to implement, and we should focus on fixing the issues we have right now, instead of putting more stuff in and possibly creating more issues.
