Added search functions

I was thinking that it would be good to be able to have a more refined method of searching through accounts than manually going through the rankings pages for targets. Introduce a search function (form) where you can include the following variables, only based on what you are able to see with your current covert level (dont know how easy/difficult that last part would be to code though).

Race
Army Size
Rank

I wouldn't include variable such as what realm an account is in as that makes searching in perg too easy and it is supposed to be a place which is more conducive for smaller accounts to be able to grow. Even include it as a bonus for FSS or when you ascend.

I did a (very) quick example of what it could look like on paint and it is attached in the spoiler

I like it, but you forgot Daimons on your pic.

Indeed - and it's already been stated many times that this is unlikely to be added, as it would just make the game easier than it already is.

In the vastness of the universe you would expect it to take some time to search for viable targets - for example how could you limit a list to army size when you haven't physically gone through the list to do that already.

A polite reminder to please use the search function (kind of ironic?) and/or read the Common Suggestions thread prior to making a suggestion.
