first step of making an empire is, build your spawner table, works as a crafting table but allows you to build the empire mod objects. Various Recipices will give you a unit block, the unit block is where the unit respawns from. a unit block can only be placed in the claimed territory. and requires the amount of space the unit takes up (so space becomes a resource) Each unit has a respawn time , which varies on the unit, when the unit block is broken, the unit dies with it. Like the spawner table kills the whole empire when broken. So you get farms of unit blocks. The Units will go to the signs placed, (or patrol flags) they go to the nearest one closest to them and go to the next one and so forth. if you have one sign, all your units gather there. Signs can be placed anywhere, and can only be broken by the player who placed them. If the unit sees the player or sarge, they will follow them
spawner table- heart of empire
unit block- heart of unit (or group)

exactly!
this is how it will be, and yeah following you is somehow AI.
but it will be boring, i think its better to give them there own brain.
Great idea, Ill offer what support I can.. unfortunately I know jack about java (Think I just came up with the title of my Memiors). Need play testing or more ideas or whatever Let me know.
Oh.. one more thing. Squirrels with Crossbows! SQUIRRELS WITH CROSSBOWS!
What exactly do we mean when we say give them a brain? as in they auto attack?
brain as in
This is a high cliff, use it to shoot from and dont walk off it like an idiot

There was even going to be a party for you. A big party. That all your friends were invited too. I invited your best friend the companion cube. Of course, he couldn't come because you murdered him. All your other friends couldn't come either, because you don't have any other friends. Because of how unlikeable you are. It says so right here in your personal file: UNLIKEABLE, liked by no one, a bitter, unlikeable loner, who's passing shall not be mourned, SHALL NOT BE MOURNED. That's exactly what it says. Very formal. Very official. It also says you were adopted, so thats funny too.
and im trying to learn how to make this all happen as fast as i can.
Don't give up, Yosi - keep recompiling and reobfuscating - you will get there! Don't let any naysayers get you down - they are just eager to try it! Good luck!

Hey it's me, the annoying newbie that you most likely want to jump into a Lava Spring.
approves.
I am not sure about the allegiances, it makes it seem to much like WoW, and I don't really like WoW.
I think in one player Skeletons and Zombies should be more common and stick together, if you have to make Spiders and Creepers rarer.
Here is an example of what I think the spawners should be like (Battle Pig):
(I see then food is kind of like an offering)
I summed up the ideas, how does this sound (not counting upgrades like War Pork ect.):
Battle Pig Common Warriors, does 2.5 damage, and
Sheep Worker Places wool blocks, and
Cow Medic Heals a chosen unit by 0.5 every second, and
Squizard (pun on Squid and Wizard) A squidman that summons Battle Pigs and Sheep Workers, ??? and
Ghast rider A sheep riding a Ghast, if the sheep gets KOed/Killed/whateveryouwanttocallit the Ghast becomes wild, ? ? and ? ?
Chicken Airforce A chicken that flies into the air when mobs gets close and then moves over them and drops eggs which damage 3, it's upgrade is the B-17 Chicken, ? ? and .
Spider Spy A spider that is invisible to the enemies. It runs over to the closest enemy, and when it gets 200 (this is just a guess, I don't really know what amount of blocks would be good)blocks or so away from the player it runs to warn the player. and ? ?.
I have more ideas, and I am sure other people have more ideas, but we don't want to kill this topic.
Also, if you have a hard time deciding what they should look like, I might be able to help with ideas, and possibly (possibly) make a skin.

It's probably going to be something like the game dawn of war. (for combat)
Oh.. one more thing. Squirrels with Crossbows! SQUIRRELS WITH CROSSBOWS!
Best of luck!
