UNDER SIEGE

Suggestion

 

This is something I've been thinking of for a while, though I don't have the skills to make such a grand mod. The mod, Under Siege would make it so every city ( also villages ) be able to come under siege. Depending on your level the city you would be currently in could be attacked by, Goblins, Ogres, Trolls, etc etc. Also in Leyawiin/Blackwood since the NPC's are always talking about not having enough Imperial Soldiers, Black Marsh or Elsweyr could attack Leyawiin/Blackwood. This could also come into play as if the player weren't there, the city could be taken over and you would have to fight for it back, much like the Kvatch retake. This could make the game much more exciting and intense knowing that the city you are in or a city anywhere could be taken over, which could lead into territory control (much like the type from San Andreas at the end of the game).

 

If you have any suggestions or criticism please post anything and everything you want.

 

As well as if you even want to take on this challenge please say so and I will make a list of people who would be willing to do it, and give you credits.

Shameless self bump.

[WinrarIzme]

not to self advertise, but my mod does something like that, its just not as complex.

 

Apart from that I don't know many other mods like it.

[slemo]

Yeah but I'm talking about just a random occurance with could be bands of 10 to even 70.

What would be great is we'd be able to set spawn points and get them to attack a specific place then spawn monsters and they'll go charging to where you ordered them killing everything in their path! Yeah, that would be nice to have. Sides, companion mods make me wish I had more to fight to make it more epic.

Oblivion is not made for such high amounts of NPCS/creatures fighting, it would cause mayor lag

I think the top of creatures & npc's is 20, when they don't use different spells

But nice idea

The gist that I got from the OP's comment was not 10-70 all at once, but in waves. For instance, seven waves of 10, or three waves of 20.

 

If you haven't already seen this, slem, then it may be the mod for you.

 

28 days and a bit - ZOMBIES!!

 

Randomized assaults, and you can also input the number of creatures that attacks. This mod is quite flexible, as it allows quite a bit.

 

If you don't fancy zombies, then you could replace them in CS with another monster just as easily.

If he's talking about that it could be done

[Trandoshan]

IF he's talking about if it could be done all at once, then you are obviously right about the AI engine limit. In which case he will have to live with 10 at once.

 

Since he wants to have these spawn in a city, the AI limit drops due to the presence of civilians and gaurds in the town. 10-15 max is a reasonable figure.

Oh God no, I was talking in waves. I've been playing Oblivion since it came out, I know the capacity of this game, Lol. I was just saying 10-70 as in 10 From 70. Though I don't want to decide when or who the attacks are from. I want it to completely depend on the areas surroundings and the types of creatures that are there. Plus it would be a nice edition for Elswery or Black Marsh to attack Leyawiin. Since in the 4th (Trusting you read Infernal City which is cannon) the Empire collapse and Elsweyr took back Leyawiin and Black Marsh took over Morrowind. It would just be a nice edition to the game, to think that towns could be taken over until you or the Imperial Legion do something about it.

 

EDIT: Also they would spawn outside the city, and would start breaking in, in this time the AI inside the city (Citizens) would retreat into their homes, while Guards, Fighters Guild and Mages Guild help the city.
