It just occured to me that a game somewhat like age of empires, could really work perfectly with playmobil, with some adjustments made of course.
Villagers could gather food, mine gold, chop wood and build buildings.
Each building would have its own purpose, such as developing tools for the clickies to make their jobs easier. When developed, the clickies could be seen using those tools. Such as better axes to chop wood, a plow for farming instead of a scythe, etc.
There should simply be less focus on battle than with age of empires, but age of empires also allowed for many different victory conditions other than killing everyone. Such as building a "wonder" which is a huge building that costs lots of resources. Other victory conditions where keeping the king alive, obtaining the most points before the timer expires, capturing all relics or capturing a building and defend it for a certain amount of time.
For playmobil, there should be some modifications to make it more age appropriate of course:
-Villagers can't be attacked by soldiers. Instead they can be captured by soldiers and would need to be guarded or locked up to keep them from gathering resources.
-The king would need to be captured and not killed to win. Once you put the enemy king in your prison, you defeat that king's kingdom.
-Defeated soldiers are knocked down but not killed. They can be disarmed so they cant fight anymore untill they pick up weapons from an armory. They can be captured by an enemy when they are concious and unarmed just like villagers, and monks can heal injured clickies.
-Siege towers and ladders can be used to climb enemy walls, and catapults and other siege equipment can be used to destroy walls and towers.
Overall I think this would work very well with playmobil.
