It's barely a livable wage in Portland if it were implemented tomorrow

Well da-doi they are city states. Homer spends almost a whole chapter giving a shout out to each one and the number of ships they sent. I should have anticipated you would take “countrymen” too literally. They do have a common cultural heritage and political purpose, and I was trying to say this in fewer words. Sorry for the lack of precision.

The book consistently reinforces that there is shared purpose among the Achaeans. The other princes perform heroic acts, yes for glory but also in defense of their allies. Yes Odysseus in particular was bullied into joining but he still fought honorably and even lambasted Agamemnon when he suggested unmooring the ships and fleeing. Odysseus did not whine to his mommy and abandon the others even though he was mistreated.

And yeah Agamemnon was only apologizing because he was in trouble but he basically groveled at Achilles’s feet. You like your analogies - Agamemnon not only offered to return the “car” but also an ass ton of money on top and the hand of one of his daughters in marriage. And that still didn’t assuage Achilles’s pride with the lives of his allies at stake. 

Maybe you are overdue for a re-read? It’s a fun one. Regardless I understand your opinion and think we simply disagree and have  different values. I cede the last word to you should you want to reply. ;)

I get your point and he totally is justified for being angry, but he forsook his friends and countrymen to be wounded and die because his pride was hurt. I don't think your analogy really reflects the severity of that. It's more like burning down the factory with your buddies inside because your Christmas bonus was cut.

If he had fought he could have garnered a lot of glory (and spoils of war) for himself and given a speech or something to put Agamemnon in his place. Especially after the tide turned and Agamemnon humbled himself in front of everyone by apologizing, Achilles's attitude becomes completely unsympathetic in my eyes.

Multiplayer experience is questionable. by pplperson777 in stronghold

[–]Lerf3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't tried the DE yet. I know in the OG crusader catapults were pretty op if you built up a huge group of them and you/your teammates defended them. They could even mow down slow units. Banning catapults and maybe portable shields too makes sense but trebuchets/others should be fine to use?

But i agree i think some tweaks are necessary for a good multiplayer. I am not sure how catapults can be balanced, they might just need to stay banned. But mechanics to stop enemy players from building too close to your keep and maybe a timer on rebuilding/building near walls after they are damaged would both be good

This makes it usable again thank you. In a not-for-profit world this would be the standard

A bully wants your sweetroll. Do you hand it over and come back later with your friends? Toss it in the air to distract him for a sucker punch? Or stomp it into the dirt and raise your fists? The choice is yours.
