Grel, because they have more fun.
And in the immortal words of Tony the Tiger, those pixie faeries are more than good - they're GGGGREAT!

you forgot the healer of the faction: Greenhouse farmer. not only does he have "special herbs" that can heal your units (and incapacitate enemies), but at higher levels he is invisible at night (how else could they deal?) and moves quite well in dense terrain (again, how else could they de...

It has a 0-3 melee attack.

what do you mean by that? I thought that the guardsman had a 5-3 melee attack and a 5 or 6-1 ranged attack. So how would the guardsman do no damage at all?

speaking of non-default eras and factions, where could I go to get help downloading them? I am having problems getting them from one computer to another via jump drive, and I would like to get someone to help me properly download the eras.

to beat this mission on medium, I sent fast, piercing units up to the north, units with a high chance to hit attack across the river to the south, and a large body of troops, including konrad and delfador, to the forests west of the bridge. li'sar's first wave consisted of cavalry and then a mix of ...

you like mages, eh? I used to, but since mine always die in the scenario that they were recruited in (mostly due to really bad luck, believe me) and that they are always, ALWAYS quick and strong. The only mage that I was able to level was the loyal one that you get at the third heir to the throne mi...

wow. congratulations on the coding job finished. that, I am sure, is probably the thing that kills the most well-intended efforts to take a faction off the drawing board and into reality. My brain is a little scrambled right now, it being REALLY LATE where I am. I like spouting ideas, but I really c...

So, has this turned into the development of an entirely new Era? It seems like, at the very least, it has evolved into a thread for more than just the darklands MP... maybe you should change the name to signify this. I like your factions, especially the swamp people, but it does seem like they have ...

I was suggesting that the creators destroyed themselves when they stopped the vorpal tide from totally overwhelming them, sort of like a "you cant exist if we cant too" mentality to their tactics when facing the tide. they would rather destroy everything in the immediate area than let the ...

wow. thats a lot of storyline flavor to think about. :shock: soo. much. coding. I am personally fond of the idea that the lost civilization X'ed itself out to stop the slicers from spreading across the lands of wesnoth, perhaps with a magic spell that did something or other... very cataclysmic, wipe...

Meteor Lake is being renamed for a different reason. When I created and named that map, I used the term "meteor," and I'm now thinking that it's a bit too scientific sounding for the world of Wesnoth. "Fallenstar Lake" will be the new name- It preserves the concept of something ...

Qes, you develop your factions freaky fast! :shock: it seems that you are good at coding, and full of inspiration for new ideas, but maybe you should relax and stop with the coding for a while. i think that it would be a better idea to decide upon the stats and justification for each unit before you...

there shouldn't be any abilities that affect the 'world'-that would be far too powerful, even if each sliver is, alone, fairly weak. by making each power 'local' (now I am using MTG terms) you should be able to make your faction more balanced, and would also help enforce the idea of teamwork-your sl...

thanks for the info. And I would download extended era, but unfortunately my computer will not properly download anything for wesnoth that is not "official".

Yes, the developers already do so much work as it is. I agree with you.
But who were the Kalifa?
