Tank feature: If you hover over a tank, you can command the nearest 2 troops or so to hide behind it or hop on top. They will get the protection of about half a maxed trench

you should also make this an option, you can make the troops walk slow with the tank so they are protected.

[@alexkauffman9435]

Hi Baron! A few ideas for your game! - The German light tank was called LK 1 - The British light tank was called the Whippet. Both of these tanks were only equipped with machine guns which could replace the light tank - Maybe add a grenade upgrade to your shotgunners to make them great assault troops. To balance them you could make their range shorter. - You could add selections in your trench to only send certain types of units. For example, sending your shotgunners and rifleman over the top while keeping your snipers behind. - Consider adding planes! Love this game! Keep doing great work!

[@killerzac69]

Or the female version of the MK 1 british tank was armed with 4 vickers machine guns. The male version had 2 6 pounders

[@deananimator1303]

That are great ideas and the planes would be like the artillery strike but in a straight line!

[@LeroxYT]

Normal german tank would then be a7v and heavy would be k wagon, but then, the german tanks would be extremly strong, cuz k wagon was double lenght of mark 4 with 6 heavy cannons, several machine guns, and even flamethrowers

[@alexkauffman9435]

@Rocketptr Very early planes. They were mostly used for scouting, dropping flares, and taking out barrage balloons.

[@alexkauffman9435]

@@LeroxYT I didn't know that! The LK 1 looked almost like the British Whippet

[@comradespacemarine2740]

I have an idea for tanks: to make it so that when destroyed, the crew had a chance to survive and fight with pistols or whatever the tankers used at that time and the wreckage of tanks could temporarily serve as a cover for the infantry.

[@lemanruss6470]

This is a good idea, but I would want to ammend it to where the tanks can serve as cover for a long time.

[@darkstormww7479]

The MK4 had a armoury inside it filled with rifles and the lewis guns could be dismounted from the tanks

[@devonmyhre766]

One problem with that, different tanks had more or less crew. Ex. The A7V has over 20 crew, while the mark V had only 6

[@connordickert4528]

Make branches within the units. Like one sniper path makes them deal more damage against tanks and another fires at a faster rate Edit flamethrowers should have a high chance of exploding on death or have a chance of exploding every time their shot

[@Karsen_Football]

You should add: A general, that you get when you max your hq, it should just be a unit the spawns rifle men or whatever you want. You can only get 1 It can only spawn a curtain amount of units just to balance it And it gives buffs to the units around it. And in the upgrade tree you can make him better, (spawn more soliders, give better buffs, look cooler). Thx now have a great day

yeah that would be cool, but isn't that just the officer???

[@TheChancellor]

Hey Baron!!!! some things I think would make the game more fun include -more in the tech tree -different maps, like a forest where men can hid behind trees -destroyed tanks could be used as cover for like 5 seconds -smoke (could be grenades or artillery) - wind that could blow the gas a little (im iffy on this) THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR AMAZING VIDEOS!!!!!! Keep up the good work

[@Bmaxwellaz]

Make the units spread out in a trench so that your army doesn't get killed by a single artillery barrage.

[@kfed8324]

I have a good idea. How about instead of a fixed single upgrade, you have to pick between 2. For example, snipers could get extra range OR get anti tank rounds. Another interesting thing you could do with this idea is that they could have downsides for each route (AT rounds make them move slower and extra range makes them not be able to see up close). Just some others could be bayonets and body armor (extra hit, nothing too op) for rifle men or Biopods and grenades for LMG's. Ofc u can change these but these were my main ideas

[@TheCryptYard]

I feel like they don’t need extra range But they could target specific units like an officer or a flamethrower over a rifleman

[@calebpeterson47]

I found some information on the mark1. The British Mark I was the first ever tank to see combat. Male tanks had sponsons, each one mounting a 57mm, six-pounder gun. Female tanks, on the other hand, each mounted two cumbersome sponsons, designed to carry two Vickers, water-cooled, heavy machine guns instead, with tiny escape doors at the back.

[@justrust645]

I would suggest you also make the shotgunner a selectable unit Additionally I had the idea of a unit (like a saboteur) that can steal tanks like the Germans loved to do Zeppelins also played a major role during ww1 so maybe also consider adding them to your game

[@acruziii666]

There should be an encampment update to where if you hold a trench for long enough, you can build tents behind it and you can spawn riflemen from there.

[@allieroper9709]

yeah that would be pretty cool

[@CT--py4ge]

Regarding your ideas of mortars etc, how about you make them exclusive to a) nations or b) trenches. For example, the middle trench can have a minefield that you can buy. The first trench that is available to you can have a mortar rather than a machine gun etc Also, how about u implement a fog of war in the back lines and you can buy a reconnaissance plane to remove it? Or even have it as an upgrade for your artillery that it becomes more precise when a plane is active

[@majorkai3803]

At a unit called the engineer which can repair Sandbags, have to be there to build the bunkers for The MGs and to upgrade trenches. They could also place Mines. They could even make new Sandbags! And one thing rather than mortar artillery, you could do a minesweep which would have a certain area of search. Mines or maybe AT Turrets could help with tanks. Also, for troops meant for a specific faction. Make the German “SturmTruppen” or “Stormtrooper” which were elites who had colored helmets and even used MP 18s. Maybe you could make the Stormtrooper as a German unit with an MP 18

[@TheCryptYard]

But it needs to to the Star Wars Stormtrooper on star wars day and maybe Christmas

[@datcoolkid1227]

Nation/faction feature: each faction has dissabilities and promotion abilities, for example, Germany has a faster attack(blitzkrieg) but can get confused in bad weather (Germanys infantry mainly relied on officers for orders). Another example for Russia (if you add it) is that they have bayonets and a faster movement speed(when the Russian army ran out of ammunition they had a massive charge on the nazis) but a disability could be that they have a hard time defending (they were a massively based army and relied on offense a lot)

[@connor6394]

Saw the artillery craters from a while back- made me think- craters (or mud?) slow down troops. So artillery has additional effect when you take the risk of using it on a charge.

[@AshChronicle]

I have 2 ideas 1. If you go down the root of adding K-bullets as an upgrade you could also add a scope upgrade increasing the range 2. you could then have flamethrowers be mustard gas and add a wind mechanic then they can be upgraded into flamethrowers. Either way this games looking great looking forward to playing it 😊

[@KleinesStein]

The second one about changing flamethrowers to gas does not make any sense in terms of a historical perspective. Gas was delivered mainly by artillery shells or by the opening of gas canisters in front of one’s own trench allowing the wind to drag it over and down into the enemy trench

[@lemanruss6470]

Flamethrowers did not use mustard gas. Mustard gas was used as a chemical weapon.

[@ry1023.3]

I don’t see why you’d go from a chemical weapon into a normal flamethrower seems like de-progression in my opinion. Also that’d be historically inaccurate for a game attempting to show traits from ww1.

[@MetricFNOF]

You seemed to have mentioned faction specific units if I'm correct. If so, I have an idea for a German unit. This unit is well known as the German Stormtrooper were specialist infantry soldiers of the German Army. They were trained to use infiltration tactics and were armed with the new grenades and submachine guns. So this German unit would be the submachine gun unit for the German faction as well as a mobile unit. Love the videos, keep up the good work!

[@nadocannon7653]

Hey Baron, since you are close to release, I’ll make one more request.Since the Russians didn’t have advanced technology, if you add the Russians, could you perhaps include some sort of cavalry unit for them as a way to compromise for their poor advancement.

[@almostnocommentary7587]

[@Ghalrost_]

Yeah special units would be pretty nice

[@OrlindaJones]

Or some infantryman can survive gas without an officer like the dead men who survived and they would confused the enemy then can bayonet as many before the confusion run out.

[@theTrademan]

Suggestions: (sorry for my bad english in advance) hvae a more or less general reaserch/ upgrade tree for stuff like bayonets, maybe unlocking diffrent units , or upgrading/ unlocking the ability to upgrade your defences and then some special path or seperat tree for individual units. And the units on the roster could maybe be like basic riflemen, 1-2 assult units ( for example shotguns), 1-2 support units ( ie officer), 1 amored, 1 misc with diffrent abilitys on the right. Suggestions for individual units/ other stuff: -barbedwire (non cosmetic) ( maybe unlocked by upgarding trenches or like the machinegun) -poison gas canisters/ containers ( also maybe unlocking arty/ abilitys in by reaserching) - ( engeniers to maybe upgarde the trenches, build machinegung emplacements ,building barbedwire, other defences) -( sniper nests ) -( artilery bunkers ) -( mutualy exclusive unit upgrades ( at rifels, beeing faster, bayonets, ... ) Faction stuff: Maybe having not a faction specific unit but something like a nation specific modifier or having a diffrent type of unite for the types maybe diffrent factions have some changed stats for some units ( maybe havyer amored tanks, or trading range for damage for some factions)

[@DavidKassa]

You should add an all units mode where you can mess around with all the units at once because in games where you have limited choices per level or mutuality exclusive features there can sometimes be really fun combinations that you miss out on.also maybe give artillery barrages more like hits because they don’t seem to be very useful at the moment so giving them like 5 hits will greatly increase their utility against entrenched units

ideas: you could add an rpg unit that does splash vs normal units and does high damage vs tanks/armoured vehicles A cool idea is having armoured personnel carriers that on death deploys 4 or 5 riflemen. Close Air Support would be a cool feature like a shadow of a plane flys by and a bomb lands sits for a second then explodes and upgrading it could up the bomb load going from 1 bomb to like a carpet bomber.

[@zohairsabeeh82]

Idea: Combat Medics. How to get: Mabye a its own unit or a upgrade for rifleman like there is a chance for them to spawn instead of rifleman OR rifleman spawn in sqauds and have a medic acompying them What they do: Infantry could survive non-direct hits from explosions or artillery but get injured and unable to fight, medics will bring them back to the base to get a refund or the injured unit is healed Balance: it takes a while for the medics to bring back the injured in a stretcher

[@ConrailQuality4121]

Airstrikes would be cool, they would be very long range but pretty inacurate. Another thing you should consider is stationary tanks, basicly just a tank that dosent move.

[@axelfoley2848]

I got some ideas for ya Baron: -I think it would be cool if there was a unit cap in each trench, that way there would be more battles in no-man-land -Machine gun outposts and tanks should have a health bar -Also, MEDICS???? SURGEONS???? - Maybe a cool little touch, when artillery hits the ground it makes a hole and some rough ground. I think it would be cool if units moved a tad bit slower over them. Not super slow, but just a liiiiiittle bit. This way, when more and more artillery is used, no-mans-land will become even more treacherous. That's it for now. Such an awesome game Baron. Keep up the fantastic work!!!

I have some ideas...Make the trenches have upgrades that can make them wider bigger and curvier. Make a plane unit that can make bombardments, and it would be cool if there would be an upgrade for the trenches that goes like this: to be a bunker inside the trench. Also you should for the enemy planes make an AA gun mount. The maps can also have more details, like mountains different colors and a bigger map would be cool.

[@zombiebadgr]

Very "unique" idea! I do hope this is in the game!

@Meredith Adams Oh... didn't notice.

[@jammonkey6249]

a lot of ideas here: landmines: if you have an adjacent trench you can place landmines that will be invisible to your enemy until they explode when walked on landmines2: there should be AI landmines(anti-infantry) and AT landmines(anti-tank) Fog/Night: you could add a FOW for night and fog Fix Bayonets!: have an ability called fix bayonets where if used all the riflemen will put bayonets onto their rifles and when they next charge will move faster than usual and attempt to go into melee with the enemies squad spawning: have it so that some expendable units like the riflemen can get spawned in a group of like 3,4 or 5 through upgrades in the tech tree supply: have a supply line fuelled by a horse or something to bring rations to soldiers which can be killed by the enemy or recruited by the player rations: have it so that if soldiers don't get rations then they will start to slowly lose health and eventually die of malnutrition wounds: depending on where they get shot soldiers will lose a certain amount of health, accuracy and/or moral health: if health hits zero then the soldier will die accuracy: if accuracy runs out the unit will no longer hit any of their shots or they will stop shooting altogether moral: if moral runs out then the unit will become scared and flee to the previous trench or will desert the battlefield altogether. aircraft: make fighters and bombers to give aerial assistance Bombers: Bombers will drop bombs from the skies on your enemies periodically fighters: fighters are the only way to get rid of Bombers and can also destroy enemy fighters rain: when raining the moral of all troops will begin to drop very slowly and all units and tanks will be significantly slower burial: dead soldiers will remain on the battlefield until you take the trench in front of it at which point you can bury the soldiers which will remove them from the battlefield and restore moral however if dead soldiers are left on the battlefield then it will begin to drain at the moral of the soldiers propaganda: make an ability called propaganda that restores moral and makes the enemy look more evil in the eyes of your soldiers gas mask: have it be that when you have an officer then you can use an ability to put on or take off gas masks gas mask2: when wearing gas masks accuracy is reduced by a certain amount Countries: a few countries I would like to see are France, Russian Empire, Austro-Hungarian Empire, Italian Empire and Communist Russia all able to fight certain countries e.g. Austro-Hungarian Empire would be able to fight with France, Russia, Italy, and the British Empire but not with the German Empire or Communist Russia trench/Machine gun upgrades: when upgrading the trench a few of the men in the trench and/or the Machine gunner will stop firing at the enemy and take out hammers/shovels to upgrade the trench before firing again once upgrades are complete and they take their guns back out officer range: make the officer's firing range significantly shorter if not then equal to everyone else/ the shortest firing range trench firing: when the trench is getting attacked then the soldiers in the trench won't need to aim before firing on their first shot unless it is night or fog Country bonuses: have bonuses for different countries for example the British Empire could ignore the water speed penalty for infantry or have it reduced for all troops and The German Empire could have more powerful artillery trench building: it would be cool visually if the trenches just started out as little hills used for cover then the next upgrade would be a small trench that would get deeper and better armoured over the upgrades made flamethrower: I think it would make sense for flamethrowers to be weak against tanks as your basically just heating up the outside armour of the tank with a flamethrower

[@Assassinss77]

This is the 1st time I saw this game. Lovely idea. 1st thing that came to mind is to add a granadier but as some sort of support unit. When you press charge it would either launch a flash or smoke. No clue about the range but from what I've seen you bought a sniper and it wasn't even in 1st trench. So I'm assuming it's behind the 1st maybe in the 2nd or base. So this granadier could either work against the 1st trench , that when you launch a charge it would deploy a flash therefore blinding the defenders for some duration ( maybe until they get 1 shot off as an advantage ) or throw smoke behind 1st trench so you are covered against sniper or whatever is in the back that can shoot you. Also from the video it seems like the defending trench is weak. I'd suggest making it harder to take it, so the troops would need to overwhelm in quantity or quality the defending ones.

[@nodripjhonny1950]

Suggestion: BAYONET CHARGE it’s an ability you can unlock through medals and when activated causes 80% or all riflemen to clog in a charging mode, this will include increased speed and dodging of bullets, and they get an charging bonus when they clash, it would cause some units to run away in fear or retreat and cause all the other riflemen to combat the opposing riflemen to THE DEATH

[@connor6394]

Add Tank Traps (Hedgehogs?) as trench upgrades to slow down or stop tanks. This could also be put in as a strategic choice between tank traps- which infantry get through easily- or barbed wire- which tanks get through easily.

[@thefrog-likecat]

If officer gas masks are AOE, you should have officers try to stand apart.

[@coolporg]

Gas should be delayed so a animation can play with a 75% chance for the infantry to put on there mask and a 25% mask they don’t so if its on they live if its off they die so theres some visual indication this would be better if gas masks were in the upgrade tree and also add dart planes like btd6 but you get a circle like the artillery but has a huge area and theres hundreds of very small darts and if 1 hits it would insta kill any infantry there could also be a upgrade that can also add a scout mode so you can see enemies in the trenches if theres a fog mode so that without it you cant see what the enemy has

Would it be possible to add an engineer or trench digger? He would repair the trenches by adding new sandbags and putting the planks and metal in the trenches when upgraded, also would be building trench “aisles” or horizontal trenches to the screen for the troops to move faster without going into no mans land. It wouldnt be destroyed if the enemy took the trench but could be used for your demise instead. Either would be a new soldier to apply to the lineup or be a soldier similar to the machine gunner.

It has nothing but Machine Guns and yet, it's really Weird looking compared to Tanks like the Mark IV or the FT-17 or even the A7V.

Maybe you should add it so that some soldiers will surrender? I think it's a really underrated detail in games. Also, theoretically, you could now do a triple-tank push.

[@matth4466]

Map idea: You could add different types of maps for various fronts (mountains, forest and plains) Every front could have stuff to make it difficult. For example in the mountains troops are slower tanks are less effective artillery is less dangerous and troops can die of hypothermia ( there could be a research to make snow clothes for troops so they don’t die in the mountains) In the forest there could be more mud, snipers are less effective because of the trees and defenders could have a harder time defending And the plains could be the default one

[@lucas64games37]

you could make so you buy a plane that hovers above a trench and when you attack the plane follows the attack and drops 1 bomb on the enemy trench. if 2 planes find each other they will shoot at each other until 1 plane goes down

[@FlutterMEDIC1]

I think the shotgunner should be moved to the optional units and replaced by grenadiers. Both sides utilized bombers to a point they only carried a sidearm and grenades, and were effective at taking trenches. In game, they could be balanced by having them move faster and having small but lethal AoE attacks, hampered by a slower firerate, and reduced accuracy while entrenched. Coupled with a lower health pool, they could fill the offensive niche without being overpowered.

[@Isan-Sama]

its stickman TRENCHES for a reason

[@nightmare80040]

Add generals that summon a random troop every 15 seconds

[@ConscriptBaron]

I have come with suggestions. 1. Infantry; Experience/Veterancy: Maybe a way for them to get veterancy after raiding trenches, such as surviving 2 trench raids and in exchange, getting a boost to their survivability due to their experience. 2. Infantry; More Assault Units: As of now, the shotgunner and flamethrower are the only two assault units and that may lead to an issue with diversity. Maybe adding an assault unit that uses SMGs like the MP18 or Huot Automatic Rifle for another assault troop, being able to fire fast and switch targets at a faster rate but having a higher chance to miss. 3. Abilities; Artillery: With the shell counts per battle being over a million, maybe add research to increase the amount of shells fired from Artillery, or increase the explosion radius. 4: Abilities; Tanks: Tanks normally helped infantry push enemy trenches. For this, I would suggest making infantry that push out of trenches with a tank nearby keep pace with the tank which should boost both the tank and the Infantry's survivability. 5. Environment; Terrain/Weather changes: Tanks often got stuck in mud or craters, as well as craters being used as temporary cover for infantry. Artillery could create craters which would act as cover for infantry and obstacles for tanks, and this would also give tanks a reason to not travel in a completely straight line. With rain, mud would reduce troop unit speed, and make tanks slower with a chance to get stuck in the mud. It would also fill up craters with water which results in them being unusable after a certain amount of time. 6: Infantry; Engineers: These would be the workhouse of the army. Rather than upgrading trenches directly, you could deploy engineers who would then upgrade the trenches which would make it cheaper than just paying directly but the engineers are always at risk of being sniped, having sniper priority(?) over any other unit except officers. They could also be the ones to build the machine gun nests, and even the ones who operate them, giving them multiple uses. They could also construct fortifications outside the trenches although that might be harder to code than just letting them upgrade trenches and machine gun nests. 7: Targeting; Priorities: On the topic of targeting priorities, There would be different priorities for snipers during war. The list being from most valuable to least valuable: Officer, Engineer, Sniper, Machine Gunner, Flamethrower, Shotgunner, Rifleman. Tanks would automatically take highest priority due to being the most dangerous thing on the battlefield during an enemy assault. 8: Infantry; Morale: Obviously, seeing multiple people die isn't the best way to keep your spirits high. When infantry die near other infantry, they should lose morale, and after a certain point they should become demoralized, giving them a stat penalty and a higher chance of not surviving combat with the enemy. While it could lead to a domino effect, it also emphasizes actually replacing units with fresh units. Units with Veterancy are more immune to these effects but still experience part of them. Let me know if I should change anything.

SUGGESTION: maybe add traps that you can put in no mans land like mines and barbed wire 💣💣

[@gradyvernon9062]

Baron, you should make it a mobile game later on so people like me who don’t have a computer/pc can play it too

[@TYWelly]

Please add like when your stockman get exploded by a bomb they will become in pieces

[@proyoni7375]

Make the precision artillery not be able to reach the first trench

[@Basilisk24357]

Make factions with buffs to unit types and different units. Like the Germans buff the flamethrower and chem warfare and one choice for the British should introduce the RAF .

[@galacticpaladin7849]

For faction-specific light tanks, Britain could get the Whippet tank (although it was more of a medium tank) and Germany could have the Leichter Kampfwagen.

So I saw that the bases regenerate health. Maybe you can have some form of troop that repairs the bunker which might also put pressure on the opponent to push up to take out the repair men (Maybe the repair men are in the most vulnerable position in front of the bunker). Plus this would make more sense because the bunker has no reason to be automatically regenerating HP.

Idea for units add a mortar it will work like artillery but weaker and spamable the mortar guy will ALWAY be one trench behind the furthest captured trench

[@alexm.6148]

Grenadiers, anti tank units, maybe medics, cannon emplacement options as an alternative to machine gun nests, light vehicles that could coordinate with infantry (jeeps with machine guns, apcs to rush troops forward), that's all the ideas i can think up right now for more content.

[@CreestofOfficial]

With the small time of summoning speed of the flamethrowers it would be cool if they had a small chance (like 5%) to explode while shot

[@alphagamez7525]

Baron it would be great if light tanks could with stand artillery with like 1% healt left so they would be no real danger anymore but they are preaty slow and precision artillery is costing less so light tanks are not wearth the money

[@pillr3817]

Please add grenades as it was a very big part of trench fighting as well as a way to fight tanks

[@matthew48390]

Add a unit that has smoke generated with a pistol the smoke generated makes it so enemys can't shoot

[@supergogurt2607]

The one thing I want in a ww1 game is cavalry and yes I know I have comented this before but I have never seen a ww1 game with cavalry.

[@t.h.n.s6475]

Features: 1) Map with snow which can reduce the visibility and the speed of the troops 2) Snipers could crawl ONLY when attacking 3) You could upgrade your machine gun to a small, fully closed metal base like the ones irl

[@kaitlynlitchfield1161]

baron please add barbed wire as PART OF WHEN you upgrade youre trench it makes getting in the trench hard for the enemy

[@Т1000-м1и]

A WW1 rts of any kind should have a heavy emphasis on resource management and trade-offs. Trying to split one resource count for every part of your army and build up some kind of specific system for your tactics

[@tht14t42]

A baron I got a suggestion: Add in multiplayer and and multiplayer 2v2s.
