Week of...

[schmout]

soem of the effects of the weeks will put more titans or marksman or unicorns on the map that u can fight against or make them join in ur army. It's really cool.

[asandir]

it's an interesting idea, but can have some major consequences, possibly a bit powerful i think

Random events, like the weeks (and what skills/stats your heroes get offered) are pre-assigned at the start of the map. If you restart the map those things will be different, but you can't reload and get a different result.

It means if you get a level up you hate, you have to reload and take a different level up path, or else restart.

Instead of weeks,random events would be way better.Every day,there could be a chance(lets say 10%)for a random event.Something like lossing half the gold to thiefs,riot in a certain town preventing building for that day,better training gives more recruits,etc.

i disagree. the fun thing about "Week of..." isn't that <i>there is</i> an effect, but rather that you know <i>there is going to be</i> an effect. i always hold my breath at the end of the week praying for something that will give me a boost. it is quite a fun way to mark the passage of time in the game, and to make it feel like there are events even more foundational than the conflict of mighty heroes -- the havens are at work too!

Oh sure,it is quite fun to loose after hours of playing just because you got the wrong week.

I do like all the new special "week of"s that aren't of in game units, but I personally don't like that there are so many that have absolutely no bearing on anything in the game. It's like thanks for the waste of a week that does absolutely nothing. Just take those out and only leave in the ones that actually do something.

I disagree, that would be a bit too much, having every week bear some significance or impact. It would take away the aura of something special happening.

I think the week of... enhancement is good, as it forces you to use all your skills rather than put a pin into weeks and say that week will boost my skills etc etc.

It makes life more interesting, IMO, and to be honest but a bit harsh if you didn't plan the possibly of getting a pop wipe due to a week of the plague then you weren't open minded enough in your game plan.
