Best Posts in Thread: Towny Wars

A way to encourage towns to fight each other could be:

When a player from a combatant town kills another, a small percentage of that player's town balance would go directly into the town balance of the killer. There could be a cooldown per kill, such that you can only extract percentages from nonunique players every 30 minutes or such.

Higher percentages could be placed upon different ranked towny members. I like this idea because it encourages towns to be careful about how many players they let in, the larger the town, the larger the liability. It's also a good way for towns to get rich and that's why they would enjoy warring.

Owner: 20%
General: 10%
Officer: 5%
Engineer: 2.5%
Vip: 2.5%
Regular: 1%

Maybe these values? Just a starter. For example Legion has about 500k right now, if one of their lower ranks dies it's a 5k loss. If Adrian dies, it's a 100k loss. Owners need to be extra careful during war.

 

war winners should be allowed to tax the losing town for a certain amount of time, since that's how wars typically ended up going in history

my town won the war against urs? now i get to add a 100 meeble tax to each of your towns residents, and that tax goes to my town for 30 irl days

edit: the prices would probably need balancing

 

I don't know why you think it's clever to bring up my winnings every single time you speak. It's funny that your entire group of friends despises me for saying something "so incredibly mean" which was me saying "lardo takes forever to type" to someone harassing me in chat. I would appreciate that you would stop making petty comments that just attack me instead of addressing the original point of my thread.

I think being the owner of a town should carry some weight that separates his duties from just normal towny. Obviously the number can be reined in, I just decided to post a suggestion to start. Thanks for your input
