The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

More ideas on how the specialists work: Scout hunter: Possibly the only unit with burrow (teleport). Fairly low hp but firststrike and strong pierce damage. Maybe a special which deals more damage to units with more than 6/7 movement points. Marksman: Low resistance to melee damage types, average-go...

Pft, Borea ftw

Evolution doesn't happen within an animal's lifetime >_> I can see how that might work if the units were swarms of insects, but they're not. It would make more sense if levelling up corresponded with the insects growing and getting stronger (as well as getting more skilled). To make it clear, the ra...

Thanks for the reply. When I get some time next week I'm going to make a unit tree to illustrate what I'm talking about. By the way, the faction is supposed to be composed of humanoids, similar to ants in appearance, rather than like the bugs in that thread.

I'm thinking of working on a faction to help me learn WML and was wondering about people's opinions on my general idea of how the faction would work. The idea behind the faction is that it will revolve around a jack of all trades main line of units which at any point can split out into extremely spe...

Okey, thanks.

Hi, I've got a problem with mounted units not being affected by energy attacks. I looked on your forums and it said that you'd fixed it but I'm assuming you haven't uploaded the fixed version to the campaign server yet? Please could you tell me what I need to change to get the resistances right?

This era looks pretty good. When I first downloaded it, however, the Albion's Captain's ID was A_sofficer or something like that instead of A_captain so the officer wouldn't level up. Hope this helps.

Sorry if this has been already asked, but why aren't the normal factions in this?

I'm guessing it would be imbalanced but if in the next version you could create an extra era including all the basic factions as well it would be awesome.

I was clicking on that go back to turn x button V_V

Ah well, thanks.

Just wondering if anyone else has this problem with the extended era: If I reload a game it will forget that it is the extended era so I can't recruit anything. When I level a unit it will then tell me it can't find the unit and then crashes back to the main menu. Is this a problem with add ons in g...

Hey look I get a different error message today XD Oh well, I should probably learn to play the game with the normal factions first V_V I mostly play skirmish/vs ai atm but haven't decided on a faction yet. hmmm What would be really awesome would be a neko faction! *hint hint* Gonna stop spamming now.

Ergh I'm getting
Could not connect to campaigns.wesnoth.org:15003: IO::Socket::INET: connect: Connection refused
each time I try and get it

(And it sounds really awesome )

Is it just offline or have I got a problem?

Well if you do this, heres some random advice I feel like giving:

Machine gunners must own. They were what replaced having hundreds of men clump together. These guys were the whole reason trench warefare existed in the first place. Make the game revolve around em

Due to my hate of randomness I'd prefer it if the percentages just affected the damage inflicted and that almost all attacks hit (save a few due to some special abilities maybe).
