One of the most pressing matters of the game is that new players aren't joining the experienced player pool although this suggestion doesn't just pander to new players. I suggest adding a training mode, a mode like this would both help new players get a grip on the game and let experienced players have fun making scenarios. It could function both as a sandbox and as a training mode. New players are told to try out the training on the actual website
The training mode would allow for new strategies to be tested in a safe controlled enviorment instead of in the volatile player enviorment where one wrong strategy could get you killed.
Features of this would be
6x spped boost (or 4x boost)
No gold can be spent
Only 1 player versus ai
Every map you unlock normally also unlocks in training
You can play any country (even those normally ai)
This suggestion would greatly increase the player pool, although not all new players will decide to join this mode those that do will hopefully increase the size of the experienced player pool and share their knowledge
