      That or how the war has ended, kinda like a spectrum between one winning it all and another winning it all (so like A wins all > A wins a lot/buffer state > A wins a bit > stalemate > B wins a bit > B wins a lot > B wins all)

    I feel like when a single state invades an alliance of two the alliance should win because more states, makes more sense and also gives the alliance more meaning, maybe you can make a similar video for the whole world.
    Edit: a lot of people have talked about population and other factors which is absolutely true but that makes the game too complex, i talked about the alliance system because it just felt like a useless system and even a liability at times

      No that doesn’t really make sense… It should be based on population, natural resources (some states produce things others can’t), and relationships with other states. Amount of current enlisted soldiers is also a reasonable factor as well as weapons in the state and the amount of funding that state has. Just because there’s two states against one certainly doesn’t mean they’d win.

    Some improvement suggestions:
    - Roll ideologies first. Use Millennium Dawn ideologies.
    - When forming an alliance, roll 1d4. The alliance only succeeds if the result is 3+, 2+ for same ideology.
    - States are merged upon forming an alliance, getting a new name (faction name, influenced by ideology, geography, etc. or just smth fun)
    - War only allows the attacker to take land equal to 50% of their current size + and any "core land" that was stolen from them.

This video was a week old when I first started, and my first version was basically this with a couple small things added. Since then I've added military scores, town building, natural disasters, resources, and much more. The turns started taking so long with all the spinners and equations that I made a small script that gives all the results at once, I just need to change the map each turn.

  • @dojo8627
    @dojo8627 3 года назад +44

    Solution to fix alliances: Introduce a chance concept that would give a smaller alliance (or single state) less odds to beat more states. If one state is attacking 3 states, then make the odds of them winning: total number of states attacking/total states fighting which would give the one state a 1 in 4 chance of winning. This would give a massive alliance a higher chance of winning because the odds are simply in their favor and it works because you stated that all states are equal in the beginning of the video.
    Edit: Also for the chance concept, use a random number generator with numbers 1-100 and if we use the pervious example of 1 vs. 3, then any number between 1 and 25 would give the victory to the small state.
