Empires Update Patch Notes (Discussion Thread)

Pretty much just making it a wilderness island without the wilderness.
Collectible items, exploration tasks, just default island stuff is all I REALLY need.

Maybe some kind of grand treasure to steal, like a bank heist of sorts.

No the spelling is correct. I suggested two names—Shieldgarde and Shieldguard. He chose one, but I like using the other since I know how on the nose Shieldguard sounds.

fr bro

I mean to be fair shieldgarde sounds like Asgard which means it might seem connected to keraxe.

Ehhhh, it gives more of a grand vibe, if you ask me.

Never said I didn’t like it

Never said you didn’t, you hostile prick.

:frowning: (also you absolutely implied it inadvertently or not)

A heist sounds cool tbh.

I think you’ll like the AS base for Nimbus Sea since that has more of what you are looking for.

Oh, I was already on board with that, vastly.

I’m thinking similar to Edward’s upgrade quest, but with a bit more challenge in getting to the reward, and no padding that’s just “kill guard, because I told you to”

Maybe instead of kill guard there’s like a timed bomb and you have to defend it from assasins

THERE’S A BOMB STRAPPED TO MY CHEST-

So AO plus Entry Point

Garde is French for “guard” or “protection.” I wanted the base to use medieval naming conventions which is why I choose something like Shieldgarde/guard.

FR!?!?

Given that you made it, I’m sure just visually it’ll be pretty great. Gameplay might not satisfy, but surely it’ll look pretty.

Imagine how much of a hell capturing it will be considering npc levels in nimbus

That’s all I can really do is make the build look good. Up to Vet to add in everything else.

Fr…

I like to keep my expectations low, so when Shieldguard has anything to do at all, I’ll be impressed

And even still, Mistral Update made me die inside.
