I agree with that. Could be an option to turn on or off, like FoW is. I like it.

i think it does have to be a new kind of spoils, like nuclear was a new kind.

Why?

because you already get something for cashing other spoils.

if the only way this is worth playing is with round limits then it is not worth implementing. the number of games is too small .

no, your entire arguement is saying this sugg is like no spoils and the games will become stalemates , so why do people play no spoils? should no spoils be taken away because of stalemates? stalemates are now irrelevant thanks to round limits, its your fault for getting into them by not using round limits, so any talk of stalemates as a reason not to implement any sugg is idiotic.

the reason we play spoils is to add something to the game, this does not.

+ the more dominant you are the more useless this option becomes
++ totally useless in Sunny games
+++ very little impact on maps such as the Age Of Realms trio that are full of neutrals

in short, the impact this option would have as an alternative to the current spoils options is so small it is not worth implementing.

because you already get something for cashing other spoils.

But why can't pu get more than one thing? Is it such a problem that you get +2 troops OR the fog revealed.

Yes, it is totally useless in sunny. So, the onlyway it makes sense to me is if you make it:
Fog? Yes No Spoils
As opposed to your suggestion of
Escalating Flat Rate Nuclear No Spols Fog Spoils

I wouldn't play it very often as a standalone spoil.

first , being able to see across the map in fog games "adds something to the game"

+ the more dominant you are the more useless this option becomes

same can be said for nuclear,no spoils,esc,flat rate and pretty much any other setting as people who ar dominant tend to win

++ totally useless in Sunny games

and escalating games are useless on city mogul, there is always a flaw in something but this sugg is for FOG games

+++ very little impact on maps such as the Age Of Realms trio that are full of neutrals

same can be said for nuke spoils, should we remove them cause they have little impact on these maps

in short, the impact this option would have as an alternative to the current spoils options is so small it is not worth implementing.

i can see your point, it certainly would be beneficial to add it onto existing spoils.if more people agree with you then ill add it to the first post.would like to see a sugg mod comment on this.

i've always thought of making a map with a "radar" on it. that you could attack and break fog but not attack anything with it.

i doubt it could be done though. would be pretty neat. you could also shoot down the radar as well.

Don't implement it as spoils, just make it as an option with fog games,
so when you cash spoils you also see regions.

Sniper08 wrote:Concise description:
  • A new type of add on to spoils , Fog cards allow players to see a region they cash in fog games

Specifics/Details:
  • In fog games,in Classic for example, a player cashes dakar,sydney and chicago and can suddenly see those regions but not the adjacent regions.The regions become visible for that turn and revert back to fog when the player begins his next turn
  • when a player cashes he sees the regions he cashed aswell as getting the troops the cards are valued for.

How this will benefit the site and/or other comments:
  • adds a new element of gameplay to further enhance the CC experience


This was suggested like 6 years ago and blitz and othr big names crashed it down quick.


I always have liked this idea... and it is something that I would support.

good stuff sniper

Yes I would have to say an add on to. It wouldn't really help on small maps either could only really work on larger maps. 1vs 1 wouldn't work that well either so would have to be over 3people and larger map. My opinion

why not in 1v1? if you have to break a bonus and you get to see how many he has defending it before deploying wouldnt that not help?
