- This site needs a new look. Personally, I don't think the current design is particularly bad, but as others have said, it looks too plain and too old. We can use some of the other Heavens as inspiration. I'm not so sure about a look based on the World Wars, because Rise of Nations covers much more than that.
- More news. I like going on a site and seeing it proudly display the latest news on its main page, but it's a bit awkward to see news from 2 years ago. The following are good ideas for news articles:
- WIP mod and scenario showcases
- 'Forgotten gems': showcasing some unknown but excellent scenarios and mods
- Any tournaments or competitions. Motter's Scenario Design Competition was a great idea for example and seems to have been a good way to boost the community.
- News, from local to Heavengames-wide. This could include major mod and scenario releases, new moderators (might be something good to put up now), etc.
- Polls
- More events. As I mentioned above, this could include competitions - another CTW Netcampaign perhaps? It would also be great to have online tournaments using mods and multiplayer scenarios.
- Updated stickying. There are some mod threads for example that should be stickied (World in Conflict, A Wrong Turn and the Modelling Help Thread).
