XML capabilities

[Ethitts]

Hey everyone, I wasn't sure if there is a particular place to post this so forgive for making a new thread. I am thinking of creating a map with certain game play aspects but I am unsure on what the xml is capable of. Hopefully you can understand what I'm trying to find out.

Example 1:
Two territories X and Y. If X is a bonus but Y isn't, can X + Y be a bonus?

Example 1-1:
Same situation as example 1, can there be an auto-deploy on either of those 2 territories?

Example 2:
A territory X and an area Y, neither are bonuses. If you hold X, can you get a bonus depending on how many territories of Y are held? So,
X + 2Y = 1
X + 4Y = 3
X + 6Y = 6
etc.

Example 3:
Two areas X and Y, neither are bonuses. Can you get a bonus for holding any X territory along with any Y territory? So,
3X + 2Y = +2
3X + 3Y = +3
3X + 4Y = +3
4X + 4Y = +4
etc.

Cheers.

ive never done xml, but from reading the xml tutorials ill answer what i think is ok, but yeti is your main man to see.
ill give it a shot though

Example 1:
Two territories X and Y. If X is a bonus but Y isn't, can X + Y be a bonus?

i think so, you could have the bonus as 2 different bonuses, or as 1 bonus and the other overrides the other.

Example 1-1:
Same situation as example 1, can there be an auto-deploy on either of those 2 territories?

the bonus can be auto-deployed i think.

Example 2:
A territory X and an area Y, neither are bonuses. If you hold X, can you get a bonus depending on how many territories of Y are held? So,
X + 2Y = 1
X + 4Y = 3
X + 6Y = 6
etc.

i think but im not too sure...really not sure.

Example 3:
Two areas X and Y, neither are bonuses. Can you get a bonus for holding any X territory along with any Y territory? So,
3X + 2Y = +2
3X + 3Y = +3
3X + 4Y = +3
4X + 4Y = +4
etc.

again i dont know.

ive probably been really no help at all - but when someone else comes along, hopefully yeti, you will get your answers answered correctly

With some overrides wizardry, you could do all of those scenarios.

i dont think the last 2 are possible, but i believe the first 2 are

All of these are possible - except the "Auto deploy" bonuses...

All Auto deploy bonuses are given to the holding territory - and are only about the 1 territory.
