Hey! This is a wonderful idea: training centers must be filled by players. For
a price, of course. Put big notices in central Scorn (and other cities): "TCI
will pay 5 gold for a goblin, 10 gold for an ogre etc upon delivery to the
relevant TCI installation."
Something like this is already done with guilds' second floor which need a
Spectre to "open", so the functionality definitely is there. All that needs
to be added is a persistent repository of monsters and
the "monster-for-money" -exchange facility. No need for generators and easy
way to make some little money if you know how to bring about big numbers of
monsters.
There might even be some monster infestations here and there around bigworld
and some NPCs hunting them. A totally autonomous bot might be too difficult
to code, but if the infested areas do not move around (which they optimally
should!), the bot could just walk from TCI to infestation, charm some goblins
and walk back with them. That would add some depth to the world.
