====== New ideas that could be put into crossfire ======

===== Variety to classes =====
The current classes in crossfire end up resulting in the same character with the exception of monks due to little restriction in what a player can do after the early levels (skill objects and scrolls etc). I would like to add lasting variation differences between classes such as adding unique skills to each character that set it apart in a particular area of the game. The classes can be summarised based on the summary text included in the game available [[mechanics|here]]. It could be argued that the most interesting characters are actually race selections and in particular the Dragon race provides a very unique experience for players. Having a similar approach to classes might add diversity and challenge to the characters selection and add interest in players choosing new characters after successfully leveling up and beating key maps with previous characters.These classes could be represented on a venn diagram like this:

Some possible unique skills might be:
  * summoners could be the only class to have a familiar
  * barbarians could get attack_type 'beserking' which increase attack speed upon each successful hit
  * warriors could dual wield weapons or cleave (hit multiple tiles at once)
  * Swashbucklers could have a chance of dodging magical attacks
  * Thieves could get a chance to do critical strikes or deadly blows

== missile weapons ==
In particular, the missile weapons ability has become very lack luster and almost useless. There is a lot of scope for adding diversity to this group of skills that I propose such as:
  * implement a 'spell' like system to add more variety to applications of the skills
    * Guided arrow
    * multiple shot
    * enchanted arrows (see hybrid items)
