Race ranks suggestion

I think I or someone else might have suggested it already, but I will post it again.

I think race ranks should be updated:
- Races having at least 2 members will show up. Otherwise lonewolves with massive AC would appear as a big race while they are just one, and you would have over 1/2 of races filled with one player race made mostly of AC.
- Like alliances, races will be able to be searched, one player races will also show up.
-Given races are custom, I will propose ingame race leader/council for race which have at least 15-20 members. How it's made up to be determined. Unless there's copyright issues with this. Or difficulties to code (for third idea)
This could liven up the game and incitate races wars and stuff like that again.

I agree that race names should be searchable. And I also think that when browsing the races you should be able to click on the race name to view all those in the race, cause right now you cannot click on it.

Anyway, look who's talking... :-"


And thanks guys & gal.


Current ranks, obvious that some races are there just because of some covert/anticovert built by a lone player to try to be on race ranks. It avoids us to see races with some members who don't build massive amounts of AC.

there was a game that had an option to pick who you wanted as leader of your selected race. The calculation totalled the power of each person who selected an individual and worked out who would be race leader that way.

Opens up possibilities of civil war within races as people struggle for support and followers.

Not sure what advantages were given to these race leaders though.

I love that idea!

Imagine taking an entire race to like a blood realm, and having a Civil War to decide the race leader :-D

agree with initial idea at least. Dont mind about tek's idea. Its always good to throw a spanner, a couple of cogs and some oil in the works and see if anything good happens...or just watch the chaos...

Choas used to have race leaders. I'd have to defer to someone who still plays to know if it still does. Race leadership in Chaos gave you some control over the racial bank and a few other odds and ends and was done by accliamation. Everyone in that race picked who they wanted so you could ahve politics (wave 1 did anyway) :D

So we need that, and the ability to be able to select someone to fight the current leader for leadership, or the whole race picks one leader of the other, and they have a race civil war :-D
