War Progress Addition
There is now an interim war page, which shows the progress of the war.
On the left of the page, there is a list of Maps, with one highlighted.
This is the current Sector that is being fought over.
Each Sector has 3 states, Sector Contested, Axis Offensive and Allied Offensive.
Winning a game will push the progress across by a certain amount depending on the number of players per side.
2% for 2v2, 3% for 3v3 and 4% for 4v4.
If a side pushes enough, the state of the sector will change from Contested to their side on Offence.
Gametypes will now be random depending on the momentum:
Sector Contested
10% Axis Attack
10% Allied Attack
40% Reinforcements Mode
40% Meeting Engagement
Allied Offensive
10% Axis Attack
50% Allied Attack
20% Reinforcements Mode
20% Meeting Engagement
Axis Offensive
50% Axis Attack
10% Allied Attack
20% Reinforcements Mode
20% Meeting Engagement
Choosing a game type in game-setup, will add a 15% chance to the selected game type, and -%5 chance to the other three.
There are also maps tied to each sector.
Playing a game on the sectors map, results in a 200% reward for both PP and XP as well as sector momentum.
Playing a game on a map to either side of the sector, results in a 150% reward.

Shit I'm pretty sure you could offer the guy a cup of coffee and he'd try to kill you with the mug if you forgot sugar.
That's like offering Beer to fuck the fat chick. It will work for a while, but it's not gonna last. Not only that, but there is zero motivation for the Fat chick to loose weight.
Why don't you collect up your love beads and potpourri and find something constructive to do.

What about a neutral game mode which doesn't modify the percentages?

You don't have to, but I'd reckon the 150 - 200% PP bonus is a nice incentive.
Let me know if there's any issues with the map choices, hopefully all 23 maps are fun.

Nope. You can play any map, and they will add the normal amount. If you play the sector map, you get 200% pp, xp and progress. Play a map on either side of the sector, you get 150% pp, xp and progress. |

since the bar is on a per sector basis i guess we will have many attack/defend this war.
but what happens when you are winning?
I one side is winning the other goes defensive, once you capture the territory then the enemy is already defending the next one or ME in it too?
I can see some player making exclusive defend companies. (terror 12mine/6gollyspam)

As far as i understand it, after one side won the battle over one sector, it will start with the next sector in that line. Beginning with "being fought over" (M/E / R+) and then either attack or defend. |

Playing a game on the sectors map, results in a 200% reward for both PP and XP as well as sector momentum.
Playing a game on a map to either side of the sector, results in a 150% reward. Now that is a way to get maps played. |

Akranadas' Greatest Hits, Volume 1: Vet has nothing to do with unit preformance. We are serious about enforcing this, and I am sure you all want to be able to have your balance thought considered by the development team with some biased, sensationalist coming into your thread and ruining it. |

So do we have to fight over every map? Since a map is a sector. That will be one long ass war.

Wars are slated to last for 3 - 4 weeks tops, this is the first try with the 'war map' so give us some time to optimise it . |

probably not since allied progress is on more than 60% for this sector after less than 2 days
maybe 3 days per sector and on this 11 maps the war is over after a bit more than a month

He made a funny thread for bear, and got banned.
Now bear makes his own funny thread. It's unsurprisingly not funny.

you won 6 games so you pushed it 6%
Im looking at it and i just realized that bar is 300% not 100% I think each winning player should get 2%-3% for a victory otherwise we'll be on the same map for days.
