Change faction capital when everything is lost ?

[Azzak]

Hello there,

 

I think there should be a possibility to change the faction capital to another regional capital if things go dire. 

 

Let's take an example :

 

- France is getting his *** kicked and Fort Royal is surrounded by enemies. But it still has ports in haïti and Louisiana. It should be possible to induce a nationwide poll for choosing the next capital. Then Fort Royal can be captured and new players spawn elsewhere, where they can actually play without being ganked.

 

Do devs have any plans for dealing with that kind of situation ?

[Galileus]

Hold fast. France is not done just yet!

[Azzak]

Not yet, but I prefer to have a plan B ready just in case

[Justme]

Hold fast. France is not done just yet!

The Americans are getting rid Spain first.

Actually this mechanic could be Pirates only. Giving their sort of nomadic background. They simply could buy out a move capital to another port. Something like... a lot of cash.

Yes, but factions should also be able to abandon their capitals if there is no point of having a capital there at all

I don't want to lose all my warehouses because some clans wet the bed.

So you prefer to have your capital surrounded by enemies and not being able to do anything with it ?

[Hethwill, the Red Duke]

Yes, but factions should also be able to abandon their capitals if there is no point of having a capital there at all

 

Men under the yoke of a european power are expected to die at their posts if the need arises.

 

If everything else is failing ( and the water is pouring in ! ) ram them like the trirremes of old !!!

 

Back to regular line of thought...

 

... no idea how this can be implemented at this moment given there is no Nation mechanics going on.

 

I think we should wait and not get carried away that much by the events in the map, after all we testing the system live as it is being built.

Plus we have no ONE NATION, we have more like a confederacy of clans under one colour... what to do... what to do...
