Discussion Topic: Use of Barracks

Hi all - we are well past 30 days on this feature - and.. I don't think its being used or has been taken up elsewhere;
viewtopic.php?f=3&t=13192&p=113188&hili ... an#p113188
I'd like to make a few recommendations;
1) can this be cheaper - frankly if it was worth it to clans we would have seen uptake
2) can an alternative be added to this wherein for a similar cost - a clan has this for all of their allies
3) could there be an alternative wherein it takes your horse or group with you
4) alternative to this - if the coach has max passengers, can this be removed?
This would open up clans to potentially being open to paying for it
This would open up clans to having a reason for added allies and pushing that diplomacy side
This might somehow compete with any of the other transport options for groups
This might somehow be better than existing coaches
Right now we can horse-hop faster than any coach in the game (that is accessible to most players), we can refresh ride groups at almost the same rate, we can use ways, portal stones, boats, ships, existing coaches etc. We can gate.
As an alternative - as I believe this is the 'Tar Valon' clan ally benefit - what about changing this to gates.
It would be RPish (They were using gates to travel between cities)
It would be useable by groups so long as allied
It would be instant rather than locked in a coach for up to 3 tics
The code I think exists?
