The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

1) What difficulty levels have you played the scenario on? Medium 1.2.4 (2) How difficult did you find the scenario? (1-10) [1] 6 You can win it with a relative bad strategy, but it's not so hard if you find a good balance in your army and a fine strategy. (3) How clear did you find the scenario ob...

I did several balancing changes to make "hard" be playable, too. I also fixed a glitch in the first map and removed the ghosts from the enemy when playing on easy (cf. wesnoth-1.1-svn, ghosts with drain). On the 2nd mission the topmost part of the map is now coverd by shroud. That should ...

(1) What difficulty levels have you played the scenario on? Medium 1.2.4 (2) How difficult did you find the scenario? (1-10) 4 I played the later scenarios at 0.8.x times, so I can't measure this difficulty relative to the later parts of the campaign, but I could kill the leather only in the 11th t...

Hi,

I play BfW for a while, mostly campaigns, rarely MP.
I can not find any manual about what are different eras. I heard about default and age of heros era, but I don't know what do these mean.
Can anyone light a bulb in my mind?

TIA.

Hi, <IMHO> "Any healing" is maybe misleading. The AI use villages for heal and for better defense (if the unit has better defense in villages). So AI will call back injured units and heal in villages, but not by healer units. </IMHO> Cheers, Tomyellow I thought the topic was about units w...

Correct, the AI does not currently know how to use healing/curing. So essentially it would treat healers as a regular unit and any healing they did would be completely accidental on the AI's part. Hi, <IMHO> "Any healing" is maybe misleading. The AI use villages for heal and for better de...

I picture it as: The recruit cost is to buy the equipment for the unit. The upkeep is to pay him. The recall cost is what it takes to transport him with you. Hi, <IMHO> I think it is the correct explanation, at least I fantasized the situation in this way. When you recruiting units than values are ...

Never forget daytime. I thought at the beginning, that 25% is nothing. On the contrary it can decide battles against heroism.
Never stay next to an unoccupied village! The enemy can go to it and hunt you with high defense and regeneration.

HTH.

There's also the fact that Assassins are weaker to Swordsmen's attacks. Don't base your comparisons between to units on combats with enemies which are stronger against one than the other for other reasons. I was in hot situation. I must break through the orc defend line quickly and of course get as...

In person I found swordsmen more useful then pikemen. I play TROW. The Orcs have good defense on most terrains and 4 attack instead of 3 is more than counterbalance against firststrike and 5-1 (IIRC) ranged attack. I don't used to save-load, so I hate when pikeman does zero from three against 2HP or...

It would be good, I think.

Hi, A lot of people try to disable or restrict autosave, or save/load. I have another idea not about restriction, but expansion. I play a lot on weekdays. After work, tired, sleepy etc. Sometimes I can not concentrate enough. I calculate ZOC, move my injured unit to safe, and move another unit in a ...

That's the point. Berserkers would never lead and coordinate an army instead of just seek and destroy.

I think that they shouldnt be weakened but berserk should be way it was. Selective berserkness just doesnt feel right- Berserker: nice mage, lets go berserk and kill it. Berserker kills mage, heavy infantry comes to kill him. Berserker: i probably shouldnt go berserk and be sane. <IMHO> I think the...

Dont worry,... before .9.1 will come out with all the bugs sorted out, and compiled for windows, it might take a few days... or a week or two. I would just continue playing that campaign in .8.11 and get new wesnoth once you pass the campaign(it should be ready by then). Besides, unless you play mu...
