Life in wasteland polis-ATTENTION
Hydro:
This topic is reply for last events- BH is now guarded by rogues and in polish thread I and some people there were thinking about life in a "Wasteland polis".
What is wasteland polis?
If you know history word "polis" come from ancient greece where small towns lived on their own with structures like: economy, politics and moreover vote.
Why this?
Structures in polis are good enough and nearly same as TC system here and players can add elements like politic, economy and even threats like raiders (or gm will spawn some of them).
Gangs are only about TC! They don't want anything new!
What I last saw is that gangs want to do something new, the biggest of them should take control of one of it. It would be more like competition, who will make better polis.
Ok, but what gangs will get for it?
Except fun, probably money- 30-40 people per town that will give 1k caps is not bad, am I right? At start they will rule town and then they will say who is citizen and who is not.
Citizenship
Like in vaultcity and other polis citizens are people that live in town, first gangs will say who can be and who not, but then law can change.
What will give me citizenship?
If dev will want to help in this idea- acces to other part of town, everyone can get to "international" one, but to rest of town you need citizenship. Also you will have privilige to vote and even if you are good in these things you can be major of town, you and other citizens can create law and guard it. This will occure in institution called "bounty hunter".
How to be citizen?
You need to do something- for example helping town in its work, guarding its law, you need to be trusted- so better don't mess around, ok?
Citizens duty
You need to protect your town and pay taxes (can change in future)
The biggest gangs have actually potential to do this and game will be more fun.
Advantages:
-more players
-RPG element
-events driven by players
-you will point, that devs efforts are not wasted
-more things to do
Ideas from topic and players that can be only done by devs
From me:
-Note table in middle of town with advertisements
-Crier- major of town can write text for him about what is going in town (NPC about information)
-new item- newspaper (obvious thing)
-citizenship model
-district for citizens
-black list for militia
-more rooms for players in towns
-New crafting system- first lvl of proffesion in guarded towns, second and third in TC for citizens (required reputation and more money)
maszrum:
gangs need to have their own intres in building, devloping town and players should have reason to keep coming there
for example - removing workbeenches form bases, that will force people to come to the cities. and what will be interes for gang ? dont know yet, maybe some extra money form every single crafted item in city ?
this game really need this idea, people should live in cities. not in fucking caves or hidden in own bases
vilaz:
It looks really interesting.
but I don't think it is gone be easy to control. I mean how the hell You can know if someone is citizen, enemy or just an occasional trader? Since Namecolorizing is kind of disabled everyone must be in same gang signed as member.

This is also true!
One more thing. So called Town Control for now mean - "Hey it's our town get the fu*k out of here" and I think it should be a little bit more of "Hey it's our town come, talk, trade and behave yourself or You gone be shoot at sight".
jan0s1k:
this idea is quite good, but it will fail soon...
example gang A will be anti-pk and he will say that gang B is bad and he will add every nick from gang B...
maszrum:
who cares ? players will have choce where to live, in wich city. thats can be ncr, vc or some city controled by other players
if they will not agree with rules and politic of gangs who controling city - they can go to other town.
and yes NC need to be reworked!
