After playing new Bannerlord for some time, I cannot shake this thought out of my head.
Why not give ability to the player to start their own Great House in Battletech?
Quite similar to Arano Restoration campaign, where you chew it sector by sector, you can either attack planetary government on unclaimed sectors, or immediately declare war on one of the great houses to take over their worlds.
I believe this game mode would be much more fun than the Career mode, which while being fun and all, does not have a logical beginning or the end.
- Taking control over a planet will offer you a decision to start your own Great House, pick a name, logo, etc.
- You can define the planet ruler, standing mech armies, budget.. so much stuff to tinker with your own empire
- The economy buildup on your planets will allow you to work on your own fleet, armies and so on
- This is where your diplomatic relations with other Great Houses and Pirates will come in to shine as well
- The star map will become your strategic map, and instead of aimless wandering around will become a primary tool for your war and diplomacy efforts
This is probably ways too difficult to mod in, but if the developers are looking into spicing it up, this is probably a nice way to boost the sandbox campaign experience.
