Lo-Fi Games

If slavery will be added to the game, I think it'd be amazing to have a coliseum building which you use to fight gladiators against each other, generating money from NPCs that watch the show.

I believe there is a coliseum area in Heft (correct me if I'm wrong?) which looks alot like the arena from Mad Max.

This would be quite an interesting idea, but it'd be great if it also included regular tournament champions as well ie your own player character or regular fighters of renown from around the (Kenshi) world.

LOL, what a coincidence, I just watched Gladiator a few days ago! Hadn't seen it in years... anyways, yes, I am all for bringing slaves into arenas to fight, and for fighting in them yourself. Perhaps it could be a building you can place in your own town? Profits could be shared between the builder/owner of the building, the manager of the building, and those bringing in the slaves... so if you are all 3 of these, you get ALL the profit

Perhaps it could also have a part in politics, as it had in history, if any sort of complex politics were added to the game.

Yeah, I like that. You can put coliseum inside your town and if citizen start to become restless and you are afraid of rebellion, you can make them happy with blood

Yes, it is a safe bet that you will see this. I doubt Chris added that fighting dome for nothing.

This actually sounds awesome. I'd put one of my characters through the whole gladiator thing just to see him come out as a warrior capable of annihilating 20 guys single handedly. Would be awesome.

Or lose and commit seppuku to erase dishonor that he brought to his faction.

I think the Coliseum idea has a lot of scope. The options to gamble, train slaves / gladiators to fight in the arenas and also the opportunity to trade, buy or sell slaves to other slave-drivers would be interesting. Be a liberator or a cruel task-master.
Otherwise love this idea though!

I'm all for Slave Fights. I already pick up bandits and lock them in my spare outposts, so having them fight is a logical step forward.

get some ol rome going. Have a slaver go out and capture some people, they bring them to the Gladiator master who buys them and trains em for the arena at a little base and the better they go the money you can get for the next fight

We will definitely some kind of scheduled fights we can bet on.
