Although that would quickly turn into a game of monopoly...

Yeah, I was thinking about that - the biggest alliance could just sit on it. Maybe you can only hold it for 30days followed by a 1 week cooldown for someone else to take it over and start building it up.

I like this concept a lot. Although I think one central one could give an unfair (and growing) advantage to the strongest alliance or coalition, as opposed to several different locations on the map.

Ahhh, monopoly! my fourth favourite board game. (fifth if you count uno as a board game)
I like the idea too but we're definitely going to need several control points, but keeping with the idea of a center of the map we can always put a human house, to ants those things are big enough to fit several alliances probably, so it could be like a biome, and then "wilderness" surrounds it on all sides, consisting of whatever other biomes we want. (with each biome having its own control points inside, so no one alliance owns everything in it) and if someone gets too controlling of the center and there's a massive imbalance of power, then we already have a realistic solution: the humans call an exterminator.

One way we can counter a player being stuck in a caste is that we make a mechanism where a player can capture another player's, or AI's queen, and use it to establish a new nest. This could led to diverse strategy with the multiple nest system.

Welcome to the discussion Ztrain! Always great to see someone else that wants to have input into this exciting project!
I was also toying with the idea of areas on the map that have strategic value more than the rest, so yeah plants or fruit trees in a few different locations might be a great example.
Another idea I had which I have not yet shared with Murgle was that from time to time a random event occurs where an animal dies (like a mouse or a bird or something substantial from the perspective of an ant) which places a temporary boon of food in various random locations around the map.
So rather than normal foraging, if this occurs inside a nest's normal forage area the nest (or nests if there are more than one overlapping that area) are notified by their workers that they found this boon event, and they have the option of assigning workers to it to strip it as quickly as possible before others do... thoughts?

As long as these events and areas were spread out enough that a few alliances couldn't monopolize them, I think it would add a lot of depth into the game.

Yup it would be entirely random, not even admin could manipulate these events, so in theory everyone has an equal chance at them.
I also really like your idea of capturing queens to make new nests of that caste of ant. Very nice idea. Player 1 loses their queen in a nest while player 2 gains that queen and nest and is able to create new nests of that caste as well, chosing from a selection of your previously captured queens.

Hookup Females Makes use of Free Matters? An Excellent Horizontal Advantage!
Cost-free hookup women chat hookups on the internet is the best solution if you're tired with gonna pubs and groups merely to be ignored, as well as worse, laughed at. I realize what it's like because I've been there.
I had been individual and needy during the day time -- I required a new companion -- but I continued seeking because I had hardly any other decision. If you're just one gentleman who wants to hookup with attractive girls without likely to those places in which the girls are alone, then this report may just make positive changes to lifestyle. It will make clear why courting on-line is the ideal alternative if you're a guy who seems to be shy to technique a beautiful woman in the nightclub or group.
