"No Country for Poor Men"

"No Country for Poor Men"

The Oligarchs are pure racist and fascist nation, they oppose the poor as they are extravagant and lush in wealth. To them the poor is only meant to die or to work as slaves with no pay.
Working on a new faction called "The Oligarchs", comprising of extravagant, wealthy, and fascist humans that has one common thought, "The world is only for the wealthy." So if you are wealthy and want wealth and army, you can easily join here.


 
Technically speaking, if there were no wealthy people, there would not be that many people capable of donating.
 
@deepstrasz
Ah, true. But some brief history :) See if the lore might have additional changes.
These people are elitists and wealth-based and usually they do not want their luxury be shared and only want their riches circulate within their empire only, like caste system that only the riches come among the ranks even soldiers are paid high. The poor in their kingdoms are only used for slaves and some are promoted to ranks after proven capability of blending with the rich.

In contrast to my previous factions, for example the Caliphate, their ideals of hating the empires like New Lordaeron, Descendants of Kultiras, Scarlet Reborn, Sapphire Dawn (all girls nation), and Bloodlines of Gilneas, are not that fascist and aristocratic. These, oligarchs are usually like human goblins, due to their greed. :)
 
@Ether slaves will eventually revolt, or not if they're not helped by external means like with Communism since fear and brainwashing is what keeps your dogs at bay.
 
@deepstrasz
They are given small rations and they are forced to stay in the empire because outside the borders of the oligarchs is the unknown, these workers fear the farther, gnolls, trolls, beasts, and creatures can prowl on people.

If you have a band of these slaves, will you lead them to revolt or escape to the woods and outer zones with non-human enemies? :D

Well I have a prepared mini-novel about the oligarchs and who will rescue the slaves from this commie pricks.
 
Interesting this faction!
❤️❤️❤️
A fusion of tyranny, greed, pride, selfishness and discrimination!

Fascism is a nationalist and authoritarian political ideology characterized by dictatorial power, repression of the opposition by force and strong regimentation of society and the economy. Even the ethnocentric and eugenicist bias.

This concept suited this faction very well because of the good use of the features you used! I could name two:

• The units have a Renaissance style (the time when the "burgos", that is, the Bourgeoisie, has risen).

• The buildings are based on Skin "Nobby Mansion", created and developed by Pyroproctos to represent a type of mansion very revered by rich and noble people. Using a refined and ornate architectural style.

Pretty Good concept!
 
I've noticed a few things and I'd like you to "kill my doubts " (Brazilian expression) if you can, of course :)

1) Would that building in the center using a Greco-Latin architecture be a bank? What would be his role? Produce additional funds?
Train units adept at magical powers? Sell basic and useful items? I was curious!

2) I imagine that you will apply the Orcish Pillage skill on good amount of the Oligarch Army, yea?

3) What types of casters can be found in this faction's Techtree in the future? Clerics / Cardinals?
The cardinals during the High Middle Ages usually appear in their scarlet and crimson clothes, in an extravagant way. Beyond the wealth that some possessed.

Are you thinking of something like that?


4) I'm crazy to know how the heroes will be, every definition of class, skills, history, etc! I wonder if we can wait for a Sultan haha lol

Can you show up a bit of the hero that is present in this image? Please :D


5) Is this faction a system of revolts? Something like an increase / decrease of tax rate that influence the chances of rebellion? A system of slavery of human units and makes them their pawns? or a special unit, an architect who builds lush buildings that generate Gold every x seconds / minute (s)?


6) Will we have a fearful and authoritarian Hero? Something like a Fuhrer? a Kaiser / Tzar?

Sorry for those hundred and
hundred of doubts and quests :3 ❤️
 
@ClariceGonzalesBR
Hello, sorry for the late reply due to being busy IRL. I would like to upload some of the units for your reference. :)

Answer keys:
(1) It is a chapel or church with grandiose and luxurious decoration, it gives gold for mana or vice versa.

(2) I usually have overused Pillage in bandits, pirates, and evil dwarves faction and I would not plan to make these humans have that ability. Probably, I would like to include a bank or a gold generator building that is dependent on the killpoints of your units, something to do with math.

Another idea in mind is to provide them, bonus and unique tech/research that increases the sell profit of items instead of 50%, it can be 150%. Also trading cart increment and gold can be carried by trading cart into markets have bonus percentages.

(3) I try to avoid from relating to scarlet crusade or magic empire (yes, there will be a human faction with all blue clothes, elementals, and crystals like Dalaran). Well, I used clerics in white, crowned sorceresses dressed in white and blue, hydromancers, and kultiras priests.

(4) Heroes are reskinned Kael with luxurious decorations and ornaments, another one is a baron, another one is a gunslinger, because these guys are hired to kill poor people who hide their wealth in farms.

(5) You stroke the idea of that genration of gold in buildings. I usually did not intend to make a revolt system because these are gamblers, luxurious buyers and merchants, extravagant festivities and occasions they make everyday, and carnivals and cabaret shows. All like vices and money. Self-centered rich people they are.

(6) The Fuhrer, Tzar, Kaisers, are used in Modern Warfare factions I made just about months ago. So I would like to set Barons to be fearsome heroes to lead the faction. They have no dictatorship but realm of the richest families. Unlike others were led by kings, supreme leaders, and even warchiefs.

:)
