Feedback Historical Allies

[...]

I do wonder how long we will be seeing the Epic Spartan Soldier. There are 100 fragments to win each week. After 10 weeks a handful of players will have him. How many more weeks will he be offered for the rest of the player base before we switch to a different Epic/Legendary ally? It would suck to end at 900/1000 fragments because you will never be able to finish him.
A solution could be to let the player pick the historical ally he wants to collect fragments of: Epic Spartan soldier or the new ally.
Another solution is to keep the ally unchanged until a player complete it, then change to the next ally in the list.
Like story quests.

disgusting UX in battles - no replace units :(((( That's an incredible oversight of the dev team - they DO have the UI for that, why don't the use it? Really annoying .. combined with not really knowing why I would start into yet another side-questline .. I'll ignore it for now.

You can use replace units in the battles. You probably do not have the most recent beta app version.

I was not there for me as well. I had to literally go outside of the Taverne and hit the army management button to replace the units on there.

Juber jumping .. to conclusions ;)

No, it's the browser version and the replace button isn't there (neither before nor after today's update, current version is 1.304.750305c5b0 (02.03.2025 18:50). All the worse if it had been and now isn't - which would be yet another sign for a badly broken development process.

I also just don't like how time consuming this feature is. There's too much to do in this game and with little reward to upgrading the allies, total flop of a feature.


Yes. I'm also on record that they should review the RAZOR and BLADES business model. Give away the Razor, SELL the blades.

This new ALLIES feature could have more strongly copied the GB model.
It's not onerous to obtain GBs now, or even 5 years ago. The cost of entry isn't steep, 9 blue prints you have to earn, and some goods that generous members usually (in this day and age...) give you, or gosh - you have to buy from them.

Once you GET the STICKS, you add the BRICKS.

Just copy that idea.

But now, @ 1000 fragments EACH? MY inventory is like a junkyard of discarded, broken cars. It's demoralizing to look at all the partial ALLIES I see there every day, and you're creating more of them, to be partially filled.

But one more thing. What's with you choosing for me yet ANOTHER new ALLY as my Historic Taverne task each week?

Your implementation is repressive. You reward me with yet ANOTHER new ALLY, to partially build. I can't exchange this new one you choose, with one in my inventory. I"m turned OFF by the HEROIC TAVERNE. You tell me what YOU want ME to work on. Nope. Not playing that game.

I have other ALLIES of higher potential value than what you put in the TAVERNE each week, for me to work on - that I want to work on.

So until you give me my flexibility to design my own game BACK TO ME SO I can CHOOSE my own city plan - I'm going to minimize my time in that new feature of the game.

In summary: I'll play your new Allies thing, but you have to give players BACK their ability to choose, and lower the bar to even get one of these items activated so it's in my scope for consideration.

Still like the feature, could add a little further bonus to my Common Spartan. This can grow to be a really powerful feature, for the latest when special abilities are available.
However it is quite tiresome to always hit the collect button after each fight or donation. This is not really necessary in my opinion, except maybe for the first option, where you are granted scrolls for having completed other tasks.

Hey, you know....maybe they'll bring some of these allies back around... you know like we figured they would/will do with the GBG champ buildings...right? /surrender

Just found out that when you have an ally to place you cannot just place them anywhere. I think a 1 star ally can be placed in any ally building. A rare ally (2 star) needs to be placed in a rare military building. Don't know about the 3 star military ally yet. Didn't think INNO could screw things up more with the allies theme. They outdid themselves this time. No lols this time.

I have come to the conclusion that due to the amount of space Ally buildings take up many GB's are becoming obsolete unless you choose to continue the original method of playing. Thus eventually you will need to choose between GBs and Allies.

Don't worry I'm sure ally slots will be opened in all the GBs for the 'legendary' ally....and boom there is your GB 'upgrade'.

This entire HA concept is ridiculous. The only ally worth getting is going to be the legendary ally and I suppose it will be a year or so until we see them. Meanwhile most players will have put billions of XP into their epic and lower allies. meh. Entire system should be ignored in my opinion.
