Should there be a " General Enemy Party Size" option?

[Scorch!]

Does anyone here think it would be good if there was a enemy party size option in the difficulty settings?

Many people have been complaining about this, from people saying that they liked larger parties for river pirates and such to people saying its unrealistic.

I think it would be a good way to let people choose themselves.

If you choose the "none of the above option", state the answer you would like to give in the thread please.

Nah. I think getting a good balance is important,
in the base game. Still, maybe some sort of modifier
would make sense. Let's see if you were wise, and
allow the polls to be changed.

Nope. Doesn't look like it.

what do you mean by allowing the polls to be changed?

sorry i'm a bit of a n00b

 

[calandale]

When you start up a poll, in SMF
(the bbs software) there is a checkbox,
which allows you to indicate that people
can change their vote.

I often screw up, and like here, would have
changed mine to a yes, or perhaps other.

No big deal, just a good idea, in general, IMO.

i did that! or at least i'm pretty sure i did.

yes, up to 2000 

or maybe instead adjust te reknown given to king and the leadership setting

base party scale: 5-20
leadership scale: 3-10 per level
reknown scale: 100-1000 per "nobility level"
reknown bbonus scale: +4 to +20 per 100 points reknown

I guess

1 village : level 1
2 village : level 2
1 castle : level 3
1 city : level 5
+1 bonus for king ?

so the king could start at a whooping 6000 reknown
that's about +240 party size at +4/100 reknown (current setting)
and +1200 if the scale is set at +20/100 reknown
