As well as invasions...

[algunar]

- each continent could be divided into 4 territories/sections, A, B, C and D, each with a different name.

- each section is almost like a separate government.

- each one has a certain relationship with other sections. this relationship can be altered however the game mods want, between neutral, enemy and ally. changes in relationship can be announced in the announcement part of the forums, with an account of an incident or something of why the change happened.

- if a section has another section regarged as an enemy, then invasions can happen (different kind of invasion) this is where a section attacks another. troops from that section are spawned in one of the countries of the other section. troops from the other section are spawned in that country also. these troops will fight the other side of troops. Mods will post a blue message, like in the current invasions.

- these troops will have AI so that they attack any other kind of troops, but not players. they'll be like animals with the skin of playable races. they can be identified by the name above their head, like "SectionAean" or something.

- the side who wins, by defeating all the other troops, will gain money which will go towards making a stronger army of troops.

 

now where do players come in?

 

-at any time, players can enter that country and start attacking any of the troops (could be that players have to join one of the sides through a process, but that might be too complicated). they can either go massacring all the troops, or they could fight for one of the sides.

-there will be an npc in each section whose purpose is to alllow players to donate to these troop armies because some players would like to help out one of the sides. players can donate money to the npc to improve the army of troops. players can choose whether it will go towards number of troops, troop equipment, troop skills etc.

- then when another little battle happens, players can go and fight the other side with the aid of stronger troops.

 

this would add to invasions, being battles of npcs to npcs, where invasions now are npcs to players. it would add a whole lot of story to invasions and the whole game too, as sections can be opposing, but not fighting at a time, but just posting death threats to each other or something like that. it would help make the game go deeper as this kind of invasion is like a side matter, which doesnt drastically affect what players do.
