Enemy Leaders

[TwixFunSize]

I had this idea that when your attacked by humans that can be pirates or tribes people, they could have a leader. This "Leader" would have extra armor, a special weapon, and better stats . This leader would influence its soldiers to preform better. If this leader dies, The enemies would have a 10-20% chance of fleeing. I hope that A leader is implemented one way or another. Thanks!

I would like to see this added to the game. Would add a new objective to raids and sieges, have my snipers take out the leader.

I recall this being suggested before, but I'd definitely like to see it. It would compliment the siege system well from a gameplay perspective, I think.

This system makes sense as well, last time i was attacked by the local hostile tribe one of the members was apparently their Chief, unless that was a typo and meant to be chef, killing this man should definitely make the rest of the men/women think twice about fighting us.

This could also factor into personalities, such as a Napoleon style leader that leads from the front of his army easy to snipe right away but inspires his/her troops to great feats or someone who leads from behind and as a result is harder to kill and his troops are generally weaker than the former leader's would be.

along with leader's personalities should come something like their reputation with their troops, again someone like Napoleon when killed would probably spur his troops to fight harder to avenge their fallen leader that they actually liked, meanwhile someone who was feared or hated by his troops when killed the attackers might immediately withdraw, maybe even the rare person surrendering to your troops as if they were being forced to fight you by their leader.

I don't think this is a question of if, it's more of a question of when. Otherwise, all the people who got the pirate king pack will be very enraged.

Also, i remember once spawning a raider who was apparently a pirate king, so i don't think there's any going back now.

Pirate leaders ftw!

I think it would be cool if said "leaders" chose their weapons from a table of weapons that are special. It gives more of an incentive to take down these leaders, like one of a kind weapons, ya know.
