getting jumped at campsites

[riverjack]

one of the most horrible things in might and magic 6 was setting up camp with everyone all beat to hell and low on hp/sp only to once in a while get ambushed before the the players had a chance to fully heal. (was based on a luck stat, the in game lunar/zodiac cycles and probably developer hatred of the player)


i think it would be cool to have that in HoS.

a (very) slight chance that when camping in wilderness camps you get attacked while sleeping. lol one might ask why suggest something i hated in a 20 year old game? because i still remember it being such an awful thing to happen in the game but then again it added just that little bit of realism that "well, no, in reality it might not always be safe to camp here" (lol 2 guys and 2 girls camping in some rank troll cave, sounds like a tittie scene in a friday the 13th movie)

it would certainly give you all running ironman games a bit of a surprise. :-)

+1 realism

If you're unbuffed in NM, you die. Since camping wipes out your buffs, getting attacked while camping would be instant death. No thanks.

it would end up being entering combat at zero range (surprise!) with the same buffs and stats you entered the camp with.

i know already something like this would never be put in the game. sure would be fun tho. :-)
