User blog:Izalith/Combined Articles, More Content

Hello there.

As stated I'd like abstract content to be larger articles combining smaller content pieces. Like you dont need an article for crush armor if you can explain how fights work out in one big article, explaining attack- and armor-types, hp, attack multipliers and how line upgrades, armory upgrades and special upgrades work out changing such values.

As such I'd like to combine various articles into one, like Healer, Hit Points and Regeneration.

I recently made another big article which for sure is far from ideal, but on this matter I believe having a bold subsection-header or an indent on the normal text would help already, since it is hard to have multiple sub-section-headlines in a text being readable right now.

The article in question is Counter System (Age of Mythology). Besides the known concepts of Soft and Hard Counters I couldn't find a word for Units which require a Hard Counter to be defeated, while they themselves defeat Soft Counters, e.g. Jarl defeats Hoplites (a Soft Counter for Cavalry), but gets defeated by Prodromos (a Hard Counter for Cavalry). People who dont know this and use Hoplites to fight Jarls basically loose. For now I chose to call them "elite" units, u could also say "heavy cavalry", but well, AoM-Line-Upgrades already go Medium-Heavy-Champion. Besides the stated ones I believe Fanatics and Myrmidons go into the same category, so there is such a thing as elite infantry.

Another article I made paragraphs for is Line of Sight. As you see here it explains how fog of war and los work together to form a gameplay element. We dont have a Fog of War article yet and this is such an occasion on which we dont need one, but we should redirect Fog of War to the same article.

MasterBroccoli wrote "You should keep in mind that the information should be easily accessible and as such, the article should be easily linkable, which right now it isn't.", I think linking to paragraphs is alright in general, but for easy access maybe redirects could be established there, so that the linking process is easier. > http://ageofempires.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:MasterBroccoli/Candidates_for_deletion#comm-40067

Pls discuss.
