[My top Ideas updated]

Introduction

Here are many standard ideas, i know are ideas from others RTS and you guys are very creative you can think about with mistrust or suspicion.

1- Chose Tecnologies (AOM & AOE III)

We like Choose, and we lived with that, even a Bad decision

1.- Choose type of government like AOE III

For Example Romans:

Consular or Triunvire or Dictatorial, Praetor, Consultc. or Elect Popularis and Optimates

This happens every time, if you upgrade City Phase.

For example if you Elects Dictatorial system you must use a determinated Hero like Quintus Fabius.

or If you Elect Consular goverment you must Elect Gaius Marius and the Refom Technology, and Special Champion Unit Marius Legionaries.

you can convert a Carthage into Kindom from a Republican State. etc

Convert a Gaul tribes into a Civilization with unique Governor like Vercingetorix an fight units against roman menace.

Why implement?

for a Randomness in each game, political decision influxes how you build your city. like AOE series. you want play more and the game arent the same.

2- Replant Farms (Empre Earth)

for a cheap amount of gold or wood

3- Diplomacy SYSTEM Improved (Empire Earth 2 & Rise Of Nations)

______________

• a Be Your friend (Ally)
  
• Dont Attack(or Rush) me for Gold (that dont see in any RTS, if pay gold, the machine dont attack you for a time thats you agree with they )
  
• Give me a units: The Players trade units, The Roman Civ can trade Extraordinarius for Gold or for Elephants.
  
• Attack to Faction () e.i the Romans or Iberians etc. You can Attack a Faction for gold or for trade Units
  
• Peace for time (in minutes)
  
• Betrayed if Your Ally attacks other Allys. like Rome TW you decide will be still friend or enemy or Neutral
  
• Allied Victory. both Factions win.
  
• Flare for ally's reinforcement. or defends ally Civ Centre.
  

4- Classic Flare buttons and Practic UI

Minimalistic icons and/or Beauty and goog looking

New Functional Buttons for GUI.

• Call to Armas
  
• Town Bell buttons
  
• Tech Tree Button
  
• Flre Button
  
• Idle Worker show Active Inactive
  
• Civ. Info- example name: Roman Phase town: III, User name
  
• Stat Info detailed: Garrinson Cap, Attack, Armor, Speed, etc
  
• Attack button this is not same than attack movement.
  
• Special Attack Button. convert heal, power button, skill, ramming. etc.
  
• Diplomacy Screen Buttons.
  

6- Taxation A tech Gold for temples and Taxation maybe a Tax building

the religion give us money like Trading but this Tech that increase a Gold 2x can you collect.

they are many ways to implement.

• 1- The Temple gives 0.3 more gold for each garrison units and collected gold.
  
• 2 Like AOM Worpshipers collected gold very slow (prying for gold but more slow than trade)
  
• 3 Trade between Temple and Market.
  

7- Units and Item for Market

a Unit can Convert Enemy units in Slaves

Slaves can carry more Resourges than a citizen

and a Mercenary capitan for much Gold this can give Exotic Units

My idea was a Unit can convert civilian(female) into Slaves

For every few enemy citizens you kill, a new citizen appears at your Capitol, assuming you have a Civ Center and are under the pop cap.

8- Pallisades And Palisades Tower

for construct Fortsprovides a temporary defense

Like Julius Caesar in Gallics Wars

thas are implement

9- Treasure defense (AOE Online & Warcraft III)

.

• if you beat a gaia Enemy can gathers treasures.
  
• Rebel army in map guard a treasure in Random map.
  

10- Conquer The World Campaing (Rise of Nations , Total war , Empire Earh III)

gameplay long for hours

May be will implemented in future.

11- Many types of Games rules. They make the game very flexible and many hours of gameplay. even AOE Online designers know how make the game dont be repetitive.

Victory type

King Of the Hill

Victory for Score

Control of Territory

Control of Outpost

Regicide

Destroy Town Center

Kill 100 Soldiers or civs

Control Relics

Wonder Victory

Tech Victory(Tech Racing /Evolution)

Defend the city/Marvel/Hero from Enemy for time (Countdown)(Rush)

Protect the Hero

Diplomacy type

12- (Rome Total wAr, Rise aNd fall civs At War )

13- Civ Inventory System.

• Better Waepons
  
• Bonus Attack
  
• Avaible items from Treasures or after Win a Match
  
• Relics

14 Single Click to Walk Double click to Run

When Run losses a lot stamina

15- Custom Civilizations with Custom Tech Tree

For the End...

16- Trophies and unlock content that like MS Points and a table of Top Players
