Party Improvements / Tournaments

[Bernard]

This may have already been suggested but if they were I could not find them.

First idea is a team tournament you could enter lets say 20 of your party and you would fight 20 of a lords party or if no lord is in that town a mercenary party or generic party.

Second idea is a more balanced weapon system for tournaments, I am more of a crossbow user than a bow user and more of a melee user than a crossbow user. So perhaps a system where if you get stuck in a tournament with just a bow and arrow you could get a side arm like a short sword. Also possibly a side arm for the people who start off on a horse with a lance and shield.

Third and final idea, mock battles I think you should be able to set up a mock battle to train your units [REDUCED EXP OF COURSE] And perhaps set one of your heroes to be the opposing mock army's leader.


Just some ideas/thoughts.

I like this idea, but what about if you then also got offers from other lords to do the mini-tournaments? Like for example me and the nord king are like tight, so what if he challenged me to a mini battle as a bit of sport? It could even be possible to make a bit of a side bet with the opposition to make things interesting...

On that note, A bow and a sword would become overpowerd for me as i would kick arse (as a sword and bow user myself) so maybe something like a dagger or something but indeed, fighting with bare hands doesn't work, at all.

It's part of the challenge - you don't know what weapon your getting so you have to be skilled with all types.

It's part of the challenge indeed, but don't you think it's a little unfair if your team fails and you're the only one left and all you have is a bow?  If someone gets close with a sword they'll constantly keep hitting you, leaving you with no time to recover yourself.

Search on the fallen team mates or enemies. Sometimes we can take their weapon.

Of course it's unfair. They rig these tournaments, don't-ya-know. You think you're the only one making massive denarii gambling on these things?
