New town: another 'Modest Proposal'
Disclaimer: the following is as humor. No insult to any member of the community, except maybe myself, is intended
The Community:
This town is associated with ALL schools of magic, and builds 2 extra libraries. However, as it is open to all, its city defenses are very low and easily entered.
All Community troops are immune to mind attacks.
Level 1:
The Tavern Dweller: recruited from the Disreptutable Inn. These level 1 walkers have a very broad range of damage, making them respected despite their low level.
The Lurker: recruited from Cyberspace. These shadowy flyers have a very high growth rate and are virtually undetectable.
Level 2:
The Scholar: recruited from the Quality Post. A shooter that can put certain units to sleep or inspire others to great deeds. As each library is built, their growth rate increases.
The Gamesmaster: recruited from the Tactics Threads. A strong walker with blocking and first strike ability.
Level 3:
The Sarcastic Wit: recruited from the Unrelated Threads. This powerful ranged unit can shoot almost any other unit down easily.
The Creature Creator: recruited from Smoke and Mirrors. This fast flyer flits about the battlefield, summoning illusions of phantasmagoric creatures. Powerful, unless disbelieved.
Level 4:
The Moderator: recruited from the Website. These powerful walkers have a wide range of spells at their disposal, as well as a devastating ranged attack.
The Administrator: recruited from the Carnival. This feared flyer can cause entire stacks to die with one word. Even Archangels tread lightly in his presence. No retaliation is possible to his attack. Unlimited retaliations.
Might Hero: Goldstars. Never learn Tactics, as Tactics increases your ability to control troops and Community troops are not easily controlled. Gets high combat and archery skills.
Magic Hero: Redstars. May learn any school of magic to Expert level. May specialize in one school of magic to Grandmaster level. Gets adequate combat skills.

Ooops... I forgot the Grail Structure
Grail Structure: Direct Line to 3DO. In addition to the normal financial and creature growth aspects , the Direct Line gives a random beneficial bonus to all Community troops and Heroes each week. These bonuses include: Morale, Luck, Spell Points, Combat bonuses, and lifting the Fog of War for a week. This bonus lasts only for that week. In addition, the Direct Line disables all cheat codes for the game.

'A Modest Proposal'
For those who didn't have my 8th grade English teacher, 'A Modest Proposal' was an essay that proposed solving the famine and population problem the Irish were having at the time in a straightforward manner: just eat all those extra babies. It even speculated on the boost to the Irish economy that would occur if Irish babies were raised for the table in other parts of Europe. Obviously, it was very broad satire, but the actual essay is done with a straight face, and is very well written. Of course, the author of this essay produced a much more famous satirical work called "Gulliver's Travels".
Thank you Mrs. Keller, wherever you are. Having teachers that were willing to stretch our minds made the whole 5 mile walk in the snow, up hill both ways, worth it in the long run.

I think that this town idea should earn you a quality point. It's so funny! Try making a town with computer games as units!

::Quiet smile and a little bow::
Well, I don't really need a quality point. The fact that this made people laugh and think is reward enough for me. If reading this brightened up your day, then the post did its job. And the responses here and in IM have brightened my day as well. Thank you.
