*cough* apologies, we managed to miss this thread, it seems that new ones art rather harder to spot that old ones with new posts in them, heh.

Anyway;
Suggestions for town alertations art open, from memory there art (NB: we art not taking into account our preferences or feasibility with these);
Artillery (damage 1+ armies within given range)
Healing (recover 1+ armies within given range)
Statues (+1 rolls for side - destroyable; although potentially able to generate more/replace)
Mercenary (spawn and take control of additional army)
Resource (provide victory points, or some other sort of resource for respawning dead armies)

Artillery may be altered to reducing enemy movement through squares - depending on coding and if the additional complexity is warranted.

In this round, the towns hath seen little to no use, we suspect the difficulty of holding them and use of them for healing is somewhat awkward combination this time around with the areas either under constant pressure, or too far for anyone to care about.  Given Lt size defenders, making them easier to capture is not really feasible.
One suggestion hast been to make the defending armies more ... exotic and interesting however.

Art there any other suggestions for towns?  If not, we can move into the next step of cementing type and numbers, within say ... end of next turn.


Planes;
In order to piggie back on Phyrexia invading Mirrodin, we're going to need a Mirrodin map.  We hath already put together a Phyrexia first sphere one, and due to some minor annoyances will be unable to throw together any more until October.  On that note, we shall not design any additional ones, but four planes is still an option if someone else steps forward.

For special planar rules, weather and terrain design will differ across each.  It would be nice if the site could indicate such differences (potentially via image, although may be more effort than it's worth).

Additional planar rules art open for suggestion.  These must be balanced appropriately and fitted into a home-plane and contended plane framework however.
Dominaria; 'standard.'
Phyrexia; suggestions include bonuses for artifact units / penalties for organic units (via rolls, losses, or passive turn damage).  Strongholds placed on Phyrexia may enjoy one-turn healing.
Other planes hath yet to be accepted and created for precise potential rulings.

Distribution of towns/bases/strongholds across the planes, and victory conditions.  That can wait until other matters art sorted however.


Victory conditions and square number each require discussion at some point too.  But we art just mentioning them for now for rememberance later, heh.  Otherwise; fog of war, realistic weather pattern systems, army respawning, and alterative win conditions art things we said to wait until the preparations start to discuss in detail (there was also the reintroduction of mercenaries, but thee need to make a good argument for that one before we will even consider it)
First thing's first, Town alterations.

We don't ignore anything. We simply overlook anything that hinders our plans of world domination :P
