# Code of Conquest - Development Roadmap
|
||||
|
||||
**Project:** Code of Conquest (AI Dungeon Master)
|
||||
**Last Updated:** November 15, 2025
|
||||
**Status:** Active Development
|
||||
**Last Updated:** November 29, 2025

|
||||
## Development Philosophy
|
||||
## Overview
|
||||
|
||||
**Workflow:** Brainstorm → Design → Code → Revise
|
||||
Code of Conquest is a web-based AI-powered Dungeons & Dragons style game where Claude acts as the Dungeon Master. This roadmap tracks development progress from MVP to public launch.
|
||||
|
||||
**Principles:**
|
||||
- Build incrementally (MVP first, then expand)
|
||||
- Test each phase before moving forward
|
||||
- Security and cost control from day one
|
||||
- Manual testing preferred for most features
|
||||
- Focus on core gameplay before polish
|
||||
**Tech Stack:** Flask + Jinja2 + HTMX + Appwrite + RQ + Redis + Anthropic/Replicate APIs
|

**Deliverable:** ✅ Complete data model layer with tests - All 68 tests passing!
|
||||
|
||||
### Phase 1 Implementation Summary
|
||||
|
||||
**What Was Built:**
|
||||
- **10 data model files** in `/app/models/`:
|
||||
- `enums.py` - 9 enum types for type safety
|
||||
- `stats.py` - Stats with computed properties (HP, MP, defense, resistance)
|
||||
- `effects.py` - 6 effect types (BUFF, DEBUFF, DOT, HOT, STUN, SHIELD) with stacking
|
||||
- `abilities.py` - Ability system with YAML loader (data-driven design)
|
||||
- `items.py` - Items (weapons, armor, consumables, quest items)
|
||||
- `skills.py` - SkillNode, SkillTree, PlayerClass
|
||||
- `character.py` - Character with **get_effective_stats()** (single source of truth)
|
||||
- `combat.py` - Combatant, CombatEncounter with turn-based flow
|
||||
- `session.py` - GameSession, SessionConfig, GameState, ConversationEntry
|
||||
- `marketplace.py` - MarketplaceListing, Bid, Transaction, ShopItem
|
||||
|
||||
**Test Coverage:**
|
||||
- 68 tests across 4 test files, all passing
|
||||
- `test_stats.py` - 12 tests for Stats dataclass
|
||||
- `test_effects.py` - 17 tests for all effect types
|
||||
- `test_character.py` - 20 tests including get_effective_stats()
|
||||
- `test_combat_simulation.py` - 19 tests including full combat flow
|
||||
|
||||
**Key Design Decisions Made:**
|
||||
|
||||
| Decision | Rationale |
|
||||
|----------|-----------|
|
||||
| **Abilities from YAML** | Data-driven design for easy balancing without code changes |
|
||||
| **Effect stacking capped at max_stacks** | Prevents infinite stacking abuse (default 5, configurable) |
|
||||
| **Duration refreshes on re-application** | Simpler than cumulative duration, more predictable |
|
||||
| **Shield damage absorption** | Fully implemented with partial/complete absorption logic |
|
||||
| **Critical hits only** | No damage variance = deterministic damage except crits (JRPG-style) |
|
||||
| **Stat minimum clamped at 1** | Debuffs can't reduce stats below 1 (prevents zero/negative stats) |
|
||||
| **Single source of truth** | Character.get_effective_stats() combines all modifiers (base + equip + skills + effects) |
|
||||
|
||||
**Combat System Features:**
|
||||
- Deterministic damage calculation with stat scaling
|
||||
- 6 effect types with tick() processing
|
||||
- Shield absorption before HP damage
|
||||
- Effect stacking with configurable caps
|
||||
- Turn-based initiative system
|
||||
- Mana costs and ability cooldowns
|
||||
- Full combat simulation tested
|
||||
|
||||
**Data Serialization:**
|
||||
- All models have to_dict() / from_dict() methods
|
||||
- Enums serialize to .value strings
|
||||
- JSON-compatible for Appwrite storage
|
||||
- Round-trip serialization tested
|
||||
|
||||
**Documentation Updated:**
|
||||
- DATA_MODELS.md - Added Ability, AbilityLoader, Enums, expanded Effect/Character
|
||||
- GAME_SYSTEMS.md - Added Ability System section, clarified effect stacking, shields, crits
|
||||
- ARCHITECTURE.md - Updated models directory structure
|
||||
### Phase 4: AI Integration & Core Gameplay
|
||||
- ✅ AI Dungeon Master integration
|
||||
- ✅ Turn-based combat system
|
||||
- ✅ NPC dialogue system with personality and knowledge
|
||||
- ✅ Location and travel system
|
||||
