Age of History 3 - Plan Invasion

[Łukasz Jakowski 6,160]

Plan your army's conquest! Choose the provinces you want them to capture, one by one. After successfully besieging a province, your army will automatically move to the next target on their list.

What do you think about this new option?

O que você acha dessa nova opção?

 

 

It's a great idea but poorly done, it was extremely easy, I thought it would be the same in Hoi4 but completely different and much worse!

Ii mean the units can split and conquer instead of the entire army goes but yeah it needs improvement

Armies path shouldn't pass over neutral territory, unless the civilization has military access granted. They should instead follow the light blue line.

For now, armies can move as they want, this will be changed later

awesome 

[YusufAliDE 151]

will other armies attack when other armies appear in front of him? 
or will  armies go to the siege?

[neverger84 7]

That's first step in enemy's AI?

[GeneralHitler 35]

Great Option!

[Wayne23lololh 584]

And a planned invasion could be done just before a war, and we can also plan the army, like move the army, but with different steps. It could be possible to also set for countries which are in the same alliance as your, and in spectator mode.

Legend :

Rectangle = army

Red provinces = step one

Pink provinces = step two

IT SEEMS COOL BUT.. IDK

 

 

I Definitely think Planning Invasion Should Divide the army into divisions based on where they are fighting by making a list of all the major cities and the level of fortification, example: 

you send 10k Musketeers to Conquer North france in the napoleonic wars, AI will automatically send 3k musketeers with most of the Stronger/Higher Morale Units to besiege the city with the highest fortification level and toughest terrain (paris in this example) while dividing the rest of the weaker troops on surrounding weaker fortresses and fighting armies on the field of battle, also AI would Auto Assign The Best General You Have To The Bigger Army

What happens if there is an enemy nearby? Do they just stay there and die? There should be an option for ai to flee or merge when enemy is nearby.

its easy because the game has zero functional AI capabilities yet, you can't lose a war if your not fighting anybody, IRL bengal would have bodied this war even if they had trash AI

That's exactly what you can already do. Just choose less provinces

there will have a rizz option on the game?

If you can split units you can do it before invasion. It makes no sense for a sent army to divide during the march. It will be much easier to destroy this army. Additionally, according to your idea, if you have 3 troops in your army, you will only be able to send them to occupy three provinces.

Perfectly made. An army should not divide after being deployed. If you want to divide the army, you should do it in advance

What if I want to send 10,000 musketeers, and because of your idea, the AI will divide my army, making my army weaker? Bad idea in my opinion
If you want to divide your army, do it before the invasion. Divide it as you want and send some units to one place and others to another place

there can be a system to calculate how much you need from your army from what you got take one division make it sub divisions after that all can regroup as one

also what's preventing Ai from doing chase? in AoH2 it was a bad problem

Edited May 10 by Unity

[Rodak Polak 434]

In AoH 2, it was very annoying to have 10 units scattering to each side, even if they had no chance of surviving.
It seems to me that you are literally proposing that AoH 3 will be exactly the same because of this division of units

Maybe make the Ai only focus on actual targets not so much on provinces because that's what the AoH2 the Ai only cared for was literally territorial expansion I hope Aoh3 has something that prevents this otherwise well be chasing units forever

Since there is a mechanic that you have to siege provinces to capture them slowing the invader, I think it may be easier to prevent such stuff from happening, and the ai should focus mainly defeating armies instead of sending their army to move in the middle of nowhere 

[Outlawexperience 237]

There should also be a way to prevent the ai from putting their entire soldiers into one single big army like shown in this picture
