I think they should be unique units non tiered and unaffected from smithing techs (as not all races have these)

Agree that they should be non-affected by any techs but they should not be unique (i mean "unique" as "limited to 1 per player unit").

About flavor I would like tavern units to stand a bit out of their races.

They might be renegades or adventurers that avoid being part of a army or units with a backstory that led them to become adventurers.

More in general no regular soldiers that could look awkward in a army made by an enemy race.

their backstory being that they look for glory and treasure or something like leaving their destroyed homeland that was destroyed by (any of the races) Also is the classes(warrior,magician,rogue,shortbowman) thing valid?

That reminds me, since ther is already veteraning effect that takes kill count, we couldmake a new stat called experience that increases for each kill, and spells that require exp to reach a certain threshold. For lvl up we could have permanent stat increasing spells or auras

i think ranged units should need higher kill count than melee to level up

I think this ranged unit should look like this



also the other ranged unit should be magical like a mage apprentice


for the point of being like an "outcast" of their race the mage apprentice should just me like an elf

New idea that might slighly change the concept of this building:Guilds/Alliances

These guilds produce unique units according to their respective guild and cannot be produced normally by other races

Guild of Dragonwill:warrior/knightly type adventurers(Symbol of their guild:Dragon/Fist)
Guild of Ravenshade:assassin/archer type adventurers(Symbol of their guild:a black bird/an eye of a hawk)
Guild of Elkmist:magical type adventurers(Symbol of their guild:an Elk/a runestone)

These adventurers can ONLY be recruited through the building and the player/AI can only choose 1 between the 3

These guilds are obtained like a research tech represented by their logo (its where the Symbols are used for and the symbols will not be on the unit's appearance) and a guildless tavern/guild hall can only produce Bards


How's that for a change? :)

So I picked some races that will fit their racial skills for each guild but first I would like to ask is this guild idea interests any of you?

Is this building built by players or is it neutral building randomly spawns on maps like tc? Ur idea is like being able to build one of 3 buildings: barracks, archery range and magic school and recruit units from them....

I mean this tavern/guildplace can only be built once per player/AI and in the production it should make you choose only 1 between the 3 guilds and again it can only be built once because if you can build multiple and have access to all guilds it'd be kind of op.....for me at least

So if you build the building first it will be just an emty tavern/house/guildplace that can only produce supportive defenseless bards

Then

At the production you could choose between 3 banners which are the guilds

And then

After 3 or 4 turns the banner will be attached to the building becoming that guild's house with new appearances that fit to their liking

The guilds mainly determine what their class is if its wether warrior,ranger,rogue,mage and each of their stories should be randomized every new recruitment

Sounds like a repeat of already existing unit roles...

Basically u make a single building that can transform into either barracks, or archery range+assassins or magic school, and there already exists similar buildings for every race including unique subraces

The idea that we have already more or less accepted is a neutral indestructible building where any race can send a money courier like unit to recruit a special unit that is more like a hero and could possibly grow stronger over time

Currently some of the neutral buildings can still be destroyed (the capturable ones) so that needs fixing. Or else this will end up in the same way probably.

Then just a tavern then....well make sure to add supportive bards to it also it could have techs that can only apply to the adventurer unit like:Potions tech,Ale(for strengthening as they are a bit drunk from it)


Also are these adventurers gonna have only 1 look? Or are these asventurers gonna have different and randomized equipment like the peasants in AOS?

One additional thing:
We wanted this guild to require for production money couriers and unable to produce units on its own.
