Wacky Idea ;P

During the Medieval times, people at war would often attack enemy cities. (duh ;P) They used many tactics in order to win. One tactic in particular which I think would be a fun and interesting addition to the game would be sieges. In the old days, the attacking forces would set up siege camps outside enemy walls. They would use them to starve the people of the city and use them as a base of operations. I think it would be a lot of fun to build siege camps near your enemies.

The siege camps should cost coins to build, and they would only last a day or two. Siege camps could hold troops so they wouldn't have to travel all the way back and forth between cities.

Siege camps would be used for two main reasons: faster attacks and more fun! ;D

I love this idea, it'd add alot more competition throughout servers!

Love it I think 10 coins for a siege camp would be fair but since warping is basically the equivalent of that their should be pentatiles (can't spell) for using them, like resource production in your current city or your city's could be halted or you can't build while using a siege camp and as you said they only last a day or two. The option to disasymble a siege camp would be nice too. Plus you shouldn't be able to hunt your troops using them just to make it interesting.

I like this idea! or at least some variation of it. I'm too tired to give it a lot of thought atm though

hehe i like that not being able to hunt it would make people alot more wary about doing things,i have always saifd hunting should have its disadvantages so that people do not wixh to do it

Honestly I think this is a fabulous idea!

yay! tons of positive feed back ^_^

I like it.

So it could be like this.
You go to the map, click on an empty square, and hit "build camp". You would then send a chosen amount of troops to go that place on the map to build. It would take time for those troops to get to the location and then they would have to start building. The more troops you send the faster the camp is built.

When the camp is built a "camp" slot would show up in your "cities" tab. You could have 2 camp slots and maybe VIP would make it so you could have three. You can attack out of that camp, and that is it.

The camp should show up on the map and enemys will be able to attack it. Like RTG said you shouldnt be able to hunt out of them. You will have no production in this camp and your troops would take resources before they leave with them, and thats it. You could gain some resources from attacking but I think that half of those resources should go to the city that the camp was set up from.

I dont think it should cost coins because I kinda see this as a non-coin spenders warping strategy.

it sounds sensible with the no hunting. this would lead to more attacks occuring on these camps.

would you be able to dispatch troops to the camps once they are created

I would assume so. It wouldn't be able to reinforce during battle though.
