Disasters

[Scaredgirl]

This feature, if ever implemented, will not be used in WoE 1 to avoid confusing players by having too much stuff in the first event. Feel free to post your ideas however, and they will most likely be used in later WoE's.

This is just a quick idea I need to write down. Basically what we could have is 12 disasters that can somehow be started by an element in the city or town of your choosing. It could be used in siege to soften the city up, or maybe just to annoy your opponent.

No more details just yet but we'll think of something.
 
  Tornado
  Curse
  Disease
  Earthquake (kind of sucks because the card already exists)
 
  Um.. fire?
 
  Locusts
 
  Some kind of decay thing that destroys buildings
  Flood (yeah.. again the card exists)


Not sure if this idea will happen but we'll see.

could be something like sinkhole :-/

[Glitch]

  Power Surge/Thunder storm from hell
  Tornado
  Curse
  Disease
  Earthquake (kind of sucks because the card already exists)
  Riots/Insanity
  Um.. fire?
  Sink hole
  Overpopulation (<-Lol)
  Drought
  Locusts (Scarabs?)
  Flood (yeah.. again the card exists)

These are a little different from what you were thinking SG, but it was triggered by your idea.  These are more like World Spells.  Basically something that can only be cast once every 50 or 100 turns kind of thing.  If anyone has played Fall from Heaven (Civilization 4 Mod), it's basically the same idea as their World Spells for each civ.

  Disembodiment (or Incorporeal): All Aether cities cannot be attacked for X turns; all Aether players cannot attack or be attacked for X (or Y) turns.
  Hurricane/Tornado: All city walls in a 19 hex area lose X% of their HP and all non-Air players (or elements-at-war/people-with-negative-Air-reputation) lose the next Y turn(s).
  Occultation: All Darkness players become invisible for X turns.
  Pandemic: All non-Death players (or elements-at-war/people-with-negative-Death-reputation) become sick.  They cannot move for X turns and lose 3 times as many cards when they lose a battle.
  Fissure: All players in a 7 (or possibly 19) hex area return back to their respective capital cities.  Another possibility would be Faultline: Passage across a 7-hex line is barred for all non-Earth players for X turns.
   Mass Hysteria: All non-Entropy players (or elements-at-war/people-with-negative-Entropy-reputation) cannot choose their actions for X turns.  Actions will be randomly assigned for those players.
  Fire & Brimestone: All non-Fire cities lose half of their Walls' HP (or maybe just elements-at-war with Fire).
  Wormhole: All (or maybe X number-of/percent-of) gravity players can teleport to any hex.
  Nature's Revolt: All non-Life players (or elements-at-war/people-with-negative-Life-reputation) cannot play creature cards in their battles for X turns.
  Sanctuary: All players with negative reputation with Light cannot enter Light territory for X turns.  Those already in Light territory moves to the nearest non-Light hex.
  Foreknowledge: All elements-at-war/people-with-negative-Time-reputation must reveal their deck before they battle any Time player.
  Ice Age: All non-Water players (or elements-at-war/people-with-negative-Water-reputation) are frozen in their current hex for X turns.  Or it can be they lose half of their Action Points for X turns.
  Armageddon: All elements declare War on all other elements and remain in a state of War for X turns.

Each element only has one spell, but depending on when/where you use it determines it's effect. Such as when used during a siege, or when being sieged, or out on the map.

I suggest that the ability to do these only be unlocked after finishing an element-wide side quest chain.

We can allow players, up to the whole element if they wish, to collaborate on a tricky and time-consuming quest chain in order to gain these abilities. Whoever finishes the chain gains the ability to use once as they wish, but they can't do it without help and without spending some time progressing through the chain first.

Holy crap, idea overload!

I like the world spell thing. I also like the fact that players need to work for something to happen. For example players need to collect a specific number of souls for their spell to activate. Should give us many interesting options.

I still think riots/insanity would be cooler for entropy.

The opposing garrison can only make 15-30 card half decks that randomly get combined with each other, much like half-bloods.
