  1. removing fog by a button in game

    once youve been eliminated, or surrendered, and are still connected with your friends who are continuing to battle, would be nice to be able to watch their action...either by a simple button that activated when player is eliminated or surrenders, or done so automatically, -can be setup to work either way by host when he creates game... so if ones concerned about tourny cheating by outed player telling teamate where they are, a host would simply not activate this option... for friends playing together...its a drag to be sitting waiting for them to finish without being able to watch the…

  2. Peaceful Game Ending

    In a diplomatic game with a lot of treaties made between players it would be nice to be able to end a game without full elimination and still get points. It would be a bit like the vote to end system but all players decide that a game should end peacefully and the points are split up between the remaining players.

  3. Allow map creators to better analyze their map

    Currently map creators have to personally and manually analyze connection numbers, total territory bonus weighting, graph centrality and isolation, along with a slew of other bits that go into making a GOOD map. If the warlight map creator allowed the map creator to download a Graph Description Language (or DOT) file, or a Graph Modeling Language (GML) file that described their graph's connections, may open source tools could be used to help the map designer fix unbalanced maps.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DOT_%28graph_description_language%29
    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graph_Modelling_Language

    This obviously would need to be a file that is only accessible to the map developer, otherwise it could be…

  4. Using Mods in the Custom Scenario Builder

    Currently, Warzone has 2 amazing features: Mods and Custom Scenarios. The biggest thing that is missing, in my opinion, is the compatibility between the two...

    For those who don't want to read everything below, this is my suggestion. Update the custom scenario builder to include mod compatibility.

    Hi, I'm JustADutchman_ and have been playing Warzone for more than 2 years now. Most players know me from my mods and the effort I put into the modded Warzone scene/community. One thing that I've always tried is to engage every player with mods, whatever community they're in.

    Warzone mods can…

  5. Vote to change boot time

    This would allow any player to initiate a vote to change the game's boot time. This also means a real-time game could graduate into a multi-day game.

    This is useful for real-time games that start out going quickly, but then last longer than expected and someone has to leave. If all players agreed, the game could continue on as a play-by-email game.

  7. Allowing players who have been eliminated from a multiplayer game to get rid of fog so they can see the rest of the game play out.

    Allowing players who have been eliminated from a multiplayer game to get rid of fog so they can see the rest of the game play out and talk to the other players about it, if they choose.

  8. Weighted Move Order

    I propose a new optional setting (hopefully to be tested in seasonal ladder) that is a weighted move order. The default would be %10, but you could alter it like luck%.

    How it would work is the order starts out 50/50 for turn 1. Each turn, the move order scale is altered based on who got first move the turn prior. So if player B gets first turn on 1, then on turn 2 it is 60/40 (for example) on turn 2 in favor of player A.

    This reduces the frequency of long strings of first moves by one player.

  9. Turnwise chat history

    Recently I joined a few larger diplo games which of course include a lot of public chat. In two of these games we have reached the point that my PC is unable to load the chat history because it is just too big. Since most of the time you know which time of the game you want to refer to it would be usefull to be able to recall just a portion of the chat.

    My suggestion would be to add a feature that allows you to load the chat history for just one specific turn or maybe a bunch…

  10. Allow custom group chats in games.

    Allows a player to add and remove players from a group chat within the game, similar to the team chat feature, but players can be added or removed from the chat by the player that created the group chat . This would be helpful in
    diplomacy games where one or more coalitions have been established. Currently, our best option is Discord, but not all players want to join a discord server, so it's not always effective, in which case, we are forced to share the same messages with each player individually, and often this makes communications very slow, it's a…

  11. Bonus-Specific Local Deployment

    So we have this cool thing called local deployments, we also have a lot of cool maps with overlapping bonuses.

    Unfortunately, the two can only come together by turning a lot of the maps' bonuses to 0, so there are no overlapping ones.

    So my proposal is thus:
    Allow template creators to set specific bonuses as locally deployed, and others to contribute to the general pool, and that way overlapping bonuses can exist, with each territory only being allowed to be part of on locally deployed bonus.

    For example, You have Bonus A, which consists of Territories 1 to 4…

  12. Capture-the-flag Style Competition

    Members would compete in 1v1 games, the winner would then have their chosen colour automatically replaced with a new gold colour. The winner would retain this colour until defeated in the competition by another player.
    Variations:
    1. Permanent availability of gold colour after winning a certain number of games in a row, for example 15 or 20. Or, permanent availability of a different colour, eg silver. After reaching this number of games the champion would return to the list of challengers.
    2. Chosen colour replaced with bronze after winning one game, silver after winning 3, gold after winning 10, platinum…

  13. Reinforcement Income Defection Card

    A card that causes a percentage of a selected opponent's income to 'defect' to you.

    Likely best played at or near the bottom of the order stack, taking effect at the beginning of the next turn, this card would allow the player to nominate an opponent, whose income would become your income. Game settings specific to the card would be to set what percentage of armies defect, to allow the card to be completely effective or only partially so.

    This card should be calculated after the sanctions cards (i.e. playing against a sanctioned player would be ineffective, receiving sanctions yourself…

  14. Allow forum thread creator to collapse posts

    Simply allow the creator of a forum thread the ability to collapse any post within the thread. The post would then be reduced merely to the poster's name and timestamp. Readers would be able to expand posts individually, or to expand the entire thread.

    The current forum is not heavily moderated, and allowing thread creators to blacklist posters or lock threads merely gives trolls further opportunity to do what they love best.

    This solution would not censor anyone, nor would it create more opportunities for trolling. It would simply allow thread creators to streamline their own thread to keep it…

  15. Warlight Generals

    Like commanders, Generals are a single unit representing non-decreasing armies. However, there are a few differences:

    1. The General would be obtained by card piece. The player would then select the territory where the general would be placed. This would make a game interesting, as this can make or break a game.

    2. The General would represent a customizable amount of armies. It could be 5, 7, or another amount of armies.

    3. If the General is eliminated, the game would continue, so losing players would not play on in a losing position knowing they can win simply by killing it.

    I hope…

  18. Names of the player taking the action on all 'History' rollouts

    Names of the player taking the action on all 'History' rollouts

    Names of the player taking the action on all 'History' rollouts-
    ie.) like the name now is, when "X" player uses airlift.

    'Colors' & 'Names' would assist better.

  20. Declare victory when one team has overwhelming superiority

    If one player/team has such overwhelming superiority in terms of terroritories and bonus areas controlled, this should result in an automatic victory. For example, if in a game of five players, one player already has income equal to, say, 70% of possible armies, and no other player has control over more than one bonus area, it's extremely unlikely that they'll fight back to win. But it's sometimes necessary to go through the whole mopping-up process - when everyone knows what the outcome will be. It would be much easier to declare an automatic victory at this point - or at…
