today as i was working on TTS (my WWII stratagy game) i got the sudden urge to create a midevial (spelled right? ?) RTS, and i succsessfully resisted the urge, but as i thougth about it (as i took a break and ate a snack) i had a pretty cool idea, but ill start from the beginning.

Its a pretty normal RTS, you have a midevial army at your command (humans, maby elfs or dwarfs or something if i feel really mythical at the time ) and your enemies are evil humans, and if i add elfs or dwarfs, then i will add some goblins and suff. Its bascilally along the same lines as any other RTS, command archers, knights, raiders, etc., and catapults, seige towers, blahblahblah, THEN:

(suspense)

I had THIS idea: what if, for the heck of it, the story has this in it: during these battles, the Human world (the one God told us to live in) and the Spirit wolrd (where there are deamons (boo!) and angles (YAY!)) somehow mixed or something.

And if it did, this would happen. As you play, every now and again your troops are momentarlily warped into the spirit world (both you and your enemies, i forgot to mention them) And this would happen:

to the good guys that are, ironically, really really good they release their "light" (it splits through their chest and shoots out a wide beam of light and shoots out and kills the enemies or knocked them down, then they become weaker and kneel for a while)

to the bad guys that are, ironically (again) really really BAD... They release their "inner deamon"
(their chest splits open and a giant monster comes out, and their skin falls away, and the deamon thing rampages around, spewing fire, and smashing guys.)

... your probably bored to death by now, and unfortunatly, those last two paragraphs are what you were reding for...
now that a look back on it, my ideas were probably not worth a whole topic, my apologies, but if you did take the time to read this, plz leave some feedback.

man man, i dunno man....dango runnin man goin and going man. Whoo!. Dang man.
btw...its crazy-ish-one

You see, they have these little meters mesuring their goodness or evilness, when the worlds mix the ones with full meters either: if their bad have monsters emerge from their bodies that ramgpage around the battle field untill their killed... If their good have beams of light come from their chests and slay enemies in their path.

Dunno if this is a Christian game or just something you felt like doing, maybe instead of mowing down enemy humans, their 'evil meter' you were talking about gets so low that they join your side or whatever. Kind of like Age of Empires where the monks use their faith to convert enemies, instead of butchering them.

Maybe if you group-selected a bunch of ppl with maxed out meters, they could have better powers, sure you'd have like ten exhausted people kneeling but then an archangel/devil or something could come down to help.

Er got a bit carried away since you just wanted an opinion... don't abandon your WWII game or anything man... I still haven't seen a good WWII rts.

No, for a slpit second they move to the spirit world, but when they come out of it, those with maxed meters "do their thing"

ahh... sorry cheese storm, i don't think TTS will be an RTS... sorry... i don't think it will be like that.. i'm thinking more along the lines of a turn-based stratagy game... WITH MULTIPLAYER! (Deathmatch,CTF,CTB,and King of the hill (so far...))

it just might be an RTS, but im not sure i have that kind of skill...

(Thinks of the possiblilities...)

on the other hand...
