Age of Strategy Forums

I was thinking about it and thought,
"What if we made a few challenges that give a certain amount of gems depending on the difficulty of the challenge?"

e.g.

3 gems - hard
Build:
Own 6 of each imperials at the same time in one game.

2 gems - medium
Kill:
3 Olog hai using the castle.

1 gem - easy
Build:
100 goblin spearmen

You can refresh your quests after 24 hours.

If we made a bunch of these then it would solve the gem problem, keep people active, and it doesn't matter what mode your on:
Multiplayer
Skirmish
Local Multiplayer (not recommended maybe due to people most likely abusing this to get gems)
Campaign

So just 3 modes that you could get these on and that's it. We just need more challenges so the game will rotate them around any suggestions?

Side Quests:

What about player who don't have active Internet? Are they refereshed when WiFi connects? Or will it be like multi player and need refresh / connection?

Other than that, I like concept.

I find getting 6 gems max daily too much.
Ppl will just be lazy and never do the campaigns.
I say a daily log in would do better

Each week your bonus gets higher the more you are active

1st = 1 daily
2nd = 2 daily
3rd = 3 daily
4Th = 4 daily

Last day of that month if your active just about every day you get a bigger sum of gems
Like 10 - 15

It would work offline too.
Daily challenges don't make campaigns useless.
You can only do 3 random ones and then you have to wait a while day for another.

Oh those type of challenges

I would like to have roughly 50 maybe even 40 to start with.

We do this as can model Aos's one after this.

It would work somewhat like achievements but you can repeat them Occasionally and you get gems.

Those 3 are examples up their.

Or weekly challenges? 6/week is way too slow for me

So it keeps me campaigning (verbialized )

6/Week?
These would be side quests that people could do while their in multiplayer, campaign, and Skirmish maps.
You'd have 3 random ones a day, so you could end up with 3 easy, 2 easy 1 medium, 3 hard, the such. That's what I meant by random order.

Updated.

I have a few ideas but I would like help on categorizing what difficulty they should be.

Have 20 vampires on the field at the same time.

Build 300 spikers.

Kill 10 drake knights using the skeleton spear men.

Convert 10 Orc dragons.

Build 5 castles.

Research all Dwarven techs.

Research all Elven techs.

Research all Orc techs.

Research all Scaledfolk techs.

Research all Human techs.

Research all Undead techs.

Build 50 Walls.

Reseruct 5 skeleton monsters.

Kill an Olog hai using the Elf sentinel.

Kill 30 phantoms with the mage

Convert 3 Olog hai

Slay 5 Orc kings with the imperial shielder.

Destroy the Mountain Stronghold with a cave troll.

Kill 50 Merlocks with the Mermen.





More to come.

Updated list.

In overall they seem to hard to realise.

Eg 20 vampire =160 turns +built time of mansion! (if not in own maps where I put them myself and than open as playable)

300 pickers =300 turns
Who wud ever do it.?

Well for tech research and 1-2 gem we can say research a certain tech.
And for more a branch.

Well mega building achievement is in
So can be for 3 lvl
Built 1-1 gem
Built 4-2 gem
Built - 8-3 gem



50 merlock with the same mermain, well
Better kill 10 merlock any way (by deleting )

Mage and 30! phantoms same problem to how realise


So on what kind of maps u get this quest?

Ideas - medium, easy :
Destroy X amount of tower
Kill 10 dragons
Destroy 20 factories
Win 5 campaigns
Kill a "one map boss"
-kill 4 horse.
Or if expand faune or random maps/enemies - than eg. kill a certain bandit*, Kill a yeti

Steal 3tech/upgrade

(well this for offline and in random map games too)

Those ideas I put were based on what was in.
If their are simpler quests you can think of to us to use then say them, high nothing's official yet.

Well, for now, we could implement some as achievement reward, one time
If got enough ideas
