Now when you locate a Bazaar you have instant access to purchase mercenaries available in that game.
I suggest that the Bazaar should be split into multiple bazaars each with a different selection of ships, of course they wouldn't each have 5 ships per age. Maybe some would have ships from a single age. In the main Bazaar menu you would see all the bazaars and click on the one you want to purchase from.
Perhaps mercenary ships would spawn at the bazaar they were purchased from and not at the civ capital.
This is to avoid one civilization basically getting all the mercenaries in a game. It would also add to exploration.
I also suggest that in other to purchase from a bazaar in should be in a civ's zone of influence.
It would also be nice to be a able to attack bazaars, this would have the repercussion that no bazaar would trade with a civilization that has attacked another, all mercenaries ships available to that bazaar would join the battle when it is attacked and if someone succeeds in destroying a bazaar they receive a lot of credits.
I love this idea. I would also like if there was a hidden bit of surprise in the Bazaar. Perhaps have the number of Bazaar's available scale to map size and each one has at most 5 ships you can select. Also it would be a good DLC to have MORE ships added, I know its not in the works but if you got ships and also we had ship captains/admirals that you can hire which are NOT a ship but you can assign to a ship which will give local ship and/or fleet-wide bonuses. I know this type of idea is probably very hard to implement but it gives the players the illusion of choice and choice always makes every game engaging.
I love this idea to. Its Genius!
Agree completely.
i would like an option to simply turn off the bazaar and keep the rest of the DLC.
I already begrudge the other human player in a co-op game if they find the Bazaar first and get the Ysengard. I would hate it if I was just in the wrong sector of the galaxy to get any good Mercenaries. Some of them are just too good to different people's play style to be that entirely arbitrary in availability within any one game.
What might work is that reaching any one Bazaar gets you access to contracting all the Mercenaries, but they are stationed at various Bazaars across the Galaxy. When you hire a particular Mercenary it begins travelling towards your influence space like a survey ship on auto. Once it makes it to your space you get full control. You would get any fog busting or meeting other factions along the way. That way, I wouldn't lose out on the Mercenary entirely, but might have to consider distances as part of my choice. At least, I would grumble a lot less about losing the Ysengard yet again.
