• Those wishing to contribute to the game by making suggestions (both small and large) should read the following before doing so.

    Bushtarion largely runs completely automatically, and has been designed intentionally to be as self-maintaining as possible, with mechanics and balance considered at a completed point.

    Please do not spend large amounts of time coming up with complex suggestions in the hope that they will be read and possibly implemented in the future, unless you just enjoy the discussion, theory-craft, and such.

    The most likely changes will be rules-changes, specific number-tweaks to units, techs, and similar sorts of changes, and only if a large community consensus is reached as "proof" that a change would, overall, be an improvement, and are more likely to be done in batches, occassionally, not as a regular thing.

a little colour in our life?

Has any 1 played the game called travian?.. it sucks. but the point is that they have pictures. I think it would be good if the different types of units had a little icon of what they are. Just to make it a bit more interesting, and clearer in the news

The problem with bushtarion is, that it is maintained and developped by one person - Azzer, while games like Travian and TribalWars have huge teams working on them.

Adding flash graphics, more pictures and stuff is all cool, the thing is it ain't realistic in terms of implemention, because it requires either Azzer learning how to do it himself or paying to someone else to do it.

Images have been a hotly debated topic over the years and the chances of them ever happening are fairly slim. This is mainly due to the fact that Bushtarion is primarily a text-based browser game.

Of course, that doesn't mean it'll never happen, just that it's incredibly unlikely to!

If somebody wants to draw a small little icon-like graphic for every unit in the game (over 100), I'd be happy to put them somewhere visible (in the manual or something :p).

Good luck finding someone that is able to, and wants to, draw over 100 icons representing so many weird & wonderful units ;)

Whereas pictures are fun, the problem is that there is not really a place for them ingame. Unless you rework the whole interface of the game, adding visible buildings and land(acres), adding ingame pictures is just not feasible. Fan art would be very fun to see indeed, but you cannot implement them into the game. Try adding a colorful background instead :)
