The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

I'm playing Son of the Black Eye - well, on and off - for the first time, and enjoying it :-) I've reached Scenario 12, "Giving Some Back". Strangely enough, one of my loyal troops - Plonk the Assassin - is not recalled. I'm used, from most campaigns, to all Loyal troops being auto-recalled when the...

I'm also playing SotBE at medium at the moment, and it's quite challenging for me. On what difficulty level were you playing this level, by the way? At any rate - your suggestion got me through the level! The key points which worked for me: It's the economy, stupid I : Focus on village tagging with...

Pentarctagon: Well, it's not my coding time that goes into implementing this feature. So, if you feel that helps you, knock yourselves out...

It's a weapon special, so none of those others make any sense.

Not really: We see it as a trait of the _character_, without weapons being mentioned. Thus we have "Strong", which is about Melee damage.

Why don't we make a pole!

Include all of my suggestions from the first page of this thread then... also, we'd need to make it kind of ranked-choice or Condorcet poll.

I'm against "Accurate". Reasons: * "Accurate" applies just as well to ranged weapons. Better, even - since there's more aiming involved and accuracy is more important. * "Accurate" applies either to piercing weapons or to small ones. You're going to call a guy with a club accurate? Or a Dwarf with a...

What would be the significant benefit over switching to a browser window and visiting the forum or the GitHub issues page?

But, we also could just use "master" by itself couldn't we? I don't think so. It's too general and too vague. It could indicate being in a relation of mastery with a person; it could indicate being higher-level somehow; it could indicate being the first, or most important, unit of the same class; a...

Vyncyn : You make a valid point, but "swordsmanship" is not an adjective. I have another idea, though. How about "blade master"? While it doesn't apply to people with clubs, tentacles etc. - it does apply more widely than being a good swordsman. (I still like Mêleur the best though, and it's as gen...

mattsc: Should I try to hold the _entire_ water front, all the way south? Your screenshots don't show what you've done in that part.

I'm playing Son of the Black Eye on Medium difficulty. Playing The Silent Forest, I recruited and recalled more than my villages could support - and I needed those troops too, I would say - so I made it to "Shan Taum the Smug" with the minimum initial gold. I went for a combination of recruitment an...

In v1.13.12, we have new title music, which includes variations on longer, existing musical tracks. This is nice and good, but - if you load a saved game, the title music continues. I believe that's not a good idea, and instead, a level-appropriate track/playlist should play, either from the beginni...

Congratulations on putting 1.14 in sight and a "thank you" to all developers, artists and other contributors for the hard work - as usual

I'm playing Son of the Black Eye, with v1.13.11-dev on GNU/Linux Mint 18.3. In "The Siege of Barag-Gor", during the final dialog, Kapou'e says he has fought the vanguard of the Human army but had to retreat. That is only the case if at the end of Scenario 1 you chose to stay, despite the (reasonable...

But doesn't that mean you can no longer start an arbitrary scenario of the campaigns you've completed before? And that the Wesnothpedia will have more uncovered entries again?
