Drones

Workhorses of Elveron, this race doesnt understand how to relax. Always working to progress the future of their offspring. Drones come in lots of shapes and sizes, but Drones are always easy to pick out when standing next to another race. Drones never committ themselves to a single job, they do what ever is best for their kingdom at the time. Drones live in a very controlled enviornment, each Drone understands the logic in which they live.

  • -100% worker rezoning costs

Code:

Working Drone    4.0           12.0  WORKER UNIT  120        700g, 500r, 100l

  • Mining Drone produces .45 diamonds per hour.
  • Forest Drones are trained from Mining Drones and produce 5 lumber per hour.
  • Forging Drones are trained from Mining Drones and produce 5.5 iron ore per hour.
  • Forged Walls require 3 Forging Drones to build (train).
  • Maging Drones are trained from Forged Walls and produce 2 magic dust per hour.
  • Recruiting Drones require .33 Maging Drones to train (always rounded up).

Recycle (Instant) Convert 50% of your Recruiting Drones into Working Drones.

* I would like to add a special building. I would like it to be an optional building that could put emphasis on the military. Just throwing the idea out here for now though.

1) Seems hard to train defense, it will take several steps and several log-ins before you actually have any defense trained.

2) GQs will ruin the ability to possible balance the race. So either make them unbuildable or change them. Currently everyone would run 20% GQs.

3) Incredibly space-efficient mages. Maybe a bit too space-efficient since tower are included in them ?

4) Do they start with 1000 working drones ? That's potential 5k defense they're starting then.

5) High casualties makes that hitting, or getting hit, hurts a lot. Makes the race fragile.

6) The spell converts a bit too many spies. Having your spies/acre drop by 50% is a lot. Maybe rather a cheaper spell that recycles fewer recruiting drones ?

Changes:



Great points Ping Pong (2, 3, 4), Im kind of embarrassed I didnt think of those when posting the race.

1 - Yes, it does make this race difficult to play. Perhaps I should bump the "order" of the defense of the unit to be the second trained (where the Forest Drone is). That would reduce the effort of playing this race. With this concept though, this race requires high activity.

5 - That is part of the design in the race. This should make it very costly to bottomfeed.

6 - The race could build up lots of spies. Notice how its called "Recylce". You cycle your military all the way through.
