Description:
Based off of the book series by George R.R. Martin and done in the style of the good old grand strategy games like Azeroth Wars from Warcraft 3. The map consists of Westeros and a restructured Essos to allow for more players. The game is played with basic footmen units, that you can upgrade and improve with researches and events. The game will feature a grand diplomacy system allowing multiple events to be triggered through a custom dialog interface, a family tree panel that allows for hero management, and a dynamic events system that will reward completion of objectives with increased stats for your units. The goal is to either take 70% of the map, or complete all objectives necessary to achieve a personal victory. When you complete all house objectives, you can choose to either leave the game in victory or keep playing to assist allies and defeat enemies.
Features:
- Morale and Objective systems that increases your units hp whenever certain conditions are met, such as nearby heroes, wielding a legendary item, having more allies, fighting near a fort, or completing primary objectives.
- Custom Family Tree dialog menus that allow you to manage your current heroes or trade goods to other players
- Veterancy system that makes each unit a hero
- Most heroes can be ressed, though some will die forever or turn to other factions, most will be replaced with new heroes and no house will ever have less than 2 at a time.
- Small naval system, that detects when units are in water, and replaces their model file while slowing movement speed for aquatic travel. The map has been opened up by these water channels to travel from Westeros to Essos and around strategic holds with greater ease.
- Most of the game is handled within the data editor, such as units, upgrades, income, supply, etc and triggers only come into play for events and dialogs.
