Suggestion / Feature Request / Wish List
We have 4 slots for Formation.
- Line
- Wedge
- Spread
- Box (Default)
Would like to see an additional 4 - 6 formations to have a pool of 8 - 10 to choose from, then a player could choose their favourite 4 formations to add to their military tool bar from the main menu / options?
Impact on Multiplayer
- May add a new dynamic to military engagements and micro.
- Allow for unique playstyles.
- Each player could be using similar but not the same formations that suit their playstyle.
Impact on Single player?
- Would look good!
How it could be implemented:
- Pre-determined from the main menu and only 4 formations can be chosen / assigned to a player profile, cant be changed in game.
Formations to consider:
- Column (we already have this in Navy)
- Square Box (Open Center to protect an e.g. monk with relic)
- Split Formation (splits your comp into two flanking groups as seen in AOE2)
- Wedge Left
- Wedge Right
- Guerrilla Formation ( a formation that mixes units randomly)
Others / Unique Formations / Faction Unique
- Testudo Formation
- Schiltron Formation (circle / square)
Thanks!
