BattleMaster is not Tribal Wars, nor is it any other game.

The fact that you are virtually immortal has been part of the core 
concept of this game since it started. I will _not_ change that. There 
must be other ways to get some change. Besides, death in games is 
overrated. Everyone who's ever played a pen-and-paper roleplaying game 
with a guy whose characters were all the same knows what I speak of.


Also, killing characters is an excellent way for grievers, idiots and 
anti-socials to ruin the fun of more serious and dedicated players, and 
in the blink of an eye, too.
