A War On Islands But One Sinks Every 20 Years

[@engineeredtofail6746]

You see, we thought that elves casually swimming to random islands was a dumb move, when in reality they were ordered to go and chill on those islands, so when they eventually fell they could be like "listen dude, I know you went to war and saw your friends die but... I've been living here for like 2 years so... this island is mine now"

the dwarves actually did hit their island max population due to their building style -- they build in squares, making circular islands(and generally all small spaces) bad for them

the elves piggybacking off of others' wars was so funny it was like they were being tired of being called the weakest and got smart

[@parmesansnorlax7293]

What if you did this again, but you also added a spinner for what happens to the island? Like, making it Corrupted, dropping a bomb, sinking it, making it enchanted, giving the inhabitants a trait, etc. I feel like that would add yet another element of chaos to an already chaotic scenario.

The elves going to other kingdoms islands when their sank was all part of the strategy, then when they get destroyed the elves immediately found a new village.

[@NeverduskX]

A cool idea might be to do another circle island world - but destroy all four corner islands from the beginning, scattering each race into random locations. Could make for some interesting stories.

[@alistairgrey5089]

The way the elves stole the islands was from them swimming to neutral islands. Once that one was killed by someone else there were already colonists there ready to go.

I've only been subscribed for a week but your content really gets my brain going, I know this comment will drown but honestly this type of content is really a new exciting, like this channel is genuinely the best world box sim content creator out there, plus the voice sounds like that one famous actor

[@mjckwmn]

"How are the Elves taking over instantly like that?" Turns out, The elves spreading to the Islands of other races was a very strategic move. The Elves were already there and weren't at War with anybody, So anytime an island was defeated, The elves could easily conquer entire islands without so much as raising a weapon. The Elves knew they couldn't win in a Head on fight so instead they just waited for the perfect moments to take over other Islands.

[@boxylemons7961]

Idea for a video: all four races BUT The orcs are given every negative trait in the game and humans, elves and dwarves are given every positive trait

[@steve_cat5504]

Imagine if you lived in this world and you didn't know how to swim. Also I think the elves kept taking islands so much was because they got hit, so the other races islands had a few elves on them that took it before a settling ship could come from the other races islands.

[@loszhor]

The elves losing their home island at the start won them the game!

[@helixstudio4617]

Just found this channel a couple days ago and love it, I've watched most, maybe 80% of the videos so far. Just wanted to say you're doing a great job and can't wait for more content.

[@amandacourtney3519]

[@danielalmendra5857]

Using a grid system for new videos sounds like a good idea, on a normal map it might be easier to hit more than one tribe at once, islands sounds good too

[@alfasha]

I love when he says "it's sinkin time" and then sinked all over the place

[@dailyhydration-]

Do this but all of the islands are connected by 1x1 land bridges to form a giant grid, and drop small bombs as well as sinking the islands and their connectors. This way people will actually go places and attack instead of just staying in the same place.

If you think about it, the elves are just planting Sleeper cells on other island, the moment when the original occupiers are destroyed they take the island.

[@malpal8711]

Your island being sunk is like rolling the monopoly man.if there’s not a lot of properties owned good but if everything is owned you’re landing on you or someone else

[@HeliPotter2000]

I like this concept, it makes me think of a movie idea, imagine primordial civilizations had a gambling game and chose a planet to play a Battleship game but with thousands of circular islands instead of ships, and let the humans evolve to golden age to wage war against other islands, and every 20 years an island would sink.

[@natasha6867]

[@Vodka6329]

It actually worked out really well that the elves just hang around other races islands. They weren't at war with anybody, until the final parts so that means they could just build their own cities at the ravaged islands almost instantly after it was destroyed. It looked dumb, since it was unproductive at hindsight. But it turned out to be quite the plan!

[@JoeQvajangel]

How about you summon 4 people on each island and give yeach of them a different trait and see which ones they keep in next generations.

Idea for a story:Mark Finds his way To An Volcanic Hell Island.

[@zanderphis3331]

Another video idea is to add another spin wheel for "natural disasters" that could range from the most devastating sinking a island or spawning a volcano on it to freezing it or spawning mobs on it. If you make all the races the same then it would make them taking occupied islands actually worth it too. Like a nation is down to one island but makes a comeback by taking a island weakened by a zombie hord or something.

[@PyroMikeHell]

Is there an option for faction splintering that could result in two or three factions in that scenario where the elves split to six islands but wouldn't go so far as making every island its' own faction?

I have a worldbox challenge for you: Using volcanoes, meteors, earthquakes, and seeds, you can create an entire world without having to use the full tool. My challenge is for you to place down a bunch of people on a small area of land, and then expand that land using the natural disasters, but the more natural disasters occur, but you can’t let the natural disasters kill your people. Basically it’s a game of balancing expanding the map and not killing off the population, can you do it?

You should do a island one again but this time with rebellions active. I’m not a huge fan of the orcs cause they always WIN but I mean with rebellions it might make it nicer, and if you can with 50 islands
