the supply of recruitment to sword clans largely depends on the size of the sword market. the more popular swords are, the easier it is for sword clans to recruit new people in and do really well.
PROBLEM IS, SWORDS AREN'T POPULAR AND THEIR POPULARITY WILL BE DWINDLING DOWN AS TIME PROGRESSES
i want to do something about this place
https://www.roblox.com/games/2663325/UPDATE-Sword-Champions-BETA
because i learned a GREAT TON abt game development and how to ENSURE SUCCESS for any place on roblox, problem is, I think it can do a lot better if something else was used instead of swords

SO HERE IS THE QUESTION, could you propose some way to modify swords or to use them in a manner that will entice kids?
im asking for ideas outside of the cosmetics enhancements games like murderer mysteries use [skins, auras, death effects, raycast effects, etc.] |

It might just be because I'm an old player that went around all types of war groups...
But if this did get any good ideas, I'd be cool with pushing some implications of it.
Of course, that is if someone pulled some brilliant idea out from nowhere that I could agree on. Even if it was just me adding the mechanic or something into a fun game for Prime Legion's events.
So... my ears are open to suggestion.

| Suggestion's fairly simple. I have an excellent team and five million R to spare. I want to do something about Sword Champions, but I don't know if it's a good idea to stick to the sword if it will mean that the game won't have more than a hundred concurrent players in it. If I had some sort of an idea on how to make the classical links more appealing to ordinary players, I'd launch something that would bring a ton of players into my game which the sword community straight from. Sword Champions has a built in clan system [it recently broke and we didn't bother fixing it though], if I have no good ideas to use for the swords I'll have to scrap it and the clan system for something else. |

That's reasonable I think.
And, I've no doubt that with those resources you could probably do better with something else.
I however am not experienced in such things. So I'd not have a clue what.
I will however (although I figure most of them will have the same response as me) bring this to the table of other groups and clans to discuss. Perhaps... maybe one might have an idea.

yes, but no point when majority of sword clan leaders are stubborn and refuse to change. |

You'd be surprised.
I'm here entertaining the idea after all.
I don't think it'd ever catch on. But I know I personally loved the "Blades and Banners" weapons when they came about.
Though I believe some would classify it more as something for "medieval" style groups. As it has several types of swords.
It was still skill based combat however.
And, for the most part not too unbalanced with it's different weapon types.

| SF clans are a small minority. If there was a way to popularize swords again, I'd do it, with or without the support of any clan. |

as hard as it is to believe, sword clans were above gun clans for the month of april in many categories.

| that's not an accomplishment considering what the state of clans is. times are going to get tougher unless swords become more popular, or sf clans shift. |

Ehh idk.
Personally, I've been hearing how groups are dying for years.
And we've definitely changed and taken on different forms. But, I'm sure that until Roblox kicks the bucket there'll still be plenty.
That being said, it'd still be neat to bring a good bit of new blood into it.

CN has been trying to find a way to change up the sword clan community for a while. Just to update it. It's tough to find a mechanic that is easy, close enough to SFing right now, but still takes skill.
I go to your game every now and then. It brings in a totally different pool of SFers and I really like that. |

That's actually why I suggested the "Blades and Banners" weapons.
It wasn't traditional swordplay however.
And I'd have personally liked to get my hands on it.
It was, pretty similar to the style of fighting for the game "mount and blade" as was mentioned earlier.
It was originally going to be a game of thrones genre, but the devs had some issue or another and stopped working on it as I was told. (But that is merely what I was told.)
What impressed me, was that it had a blocking system that worked well. And it was relatively balanced.
I don't know that I'd personally care to have the variety of weapons so much... although they were nice.
But fighting with these weapons, and the limited stamina we had to sprint, it had a fair amount of actual teamwork with the mechanics.
Though, combat was also a little less instant. Since normal swords, if you are to lunge through someone, it is likely the combatants end up killing one another. And combat can begin and end in seconds.
The swords from Blades and Banners simply allowed more options. And surrounding your opponent was actually a beneficial idea.
Where in swordplay now, if you surround a skilled man, you're liable to lose several people, and would have been better off just fighting them with less.
