What sort of storyline do you envision? I have a few friends who are into game coding, but you'd have to impress them pretty hard with your vision. Setting? Characters? What makes it unique?

He made some good points, if we want this goon game to be Kickstarter-ready we have to put in some work.

I actually think that the ability to manage relationships in your unit through a dating minigame would add a lot. Other tactical games have done it well.

I didn't say anything about hentai, just the ability to connect to your troops on an emotional level. It will make battles more tense and interesting.

Maybe a more Fire Emblem like experience, where characters develop their relationships by coordinating attacks and supporting each other? Would make some pretty powerful emerging storyline possibilities
This. Just... this.

As long as it,
A. ADDS to the core gameplay, not detract from it, and
B. Doesn't get to creepy.

Also, can we add a lesser, "friendship" affect which is like being lovers, but decreased and can be between same-sex characters?
Why can't same-sex characters be lovers?

Don't get me wrong, I don't hate gays and lesbians, but it makes me... Uncomfortable.

It's a work in progress.
Is "The Great Invasion" how you would describe immigration from central and south America in recent years?

Okay, fair point.
A. I do not have a GF (or BF!) yet, so I've only really seen romance in media.
B. Facts, what do you mean when you say to expand on my... Uncomfortablity?
C. Alright. You can tell your coder friends to allow gay, lesbian, bisexual and transsexuals in the game.
Please name three LGBT characters who will be in your game.
