The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

Aah, I was about to report the inability for non-Dwarves to unlock monoliths in S9, but it seems that Y_Plentin already found it before me. Good to see it's something you're aware of!

Thanks for all the help, everyone. To address some specific concerns: -As to why Ragdalon can be defeated by a ragtag band of adventurers despite laying low an entire civilization, perhaps it is the case that long years of imprisonment have rendered him weak and emaciated? (By dragon standards, of c...

Hi all, I have been contemplating the creation of a campaign for Wesnoth. I have some previous experience with modding, and built half of a campaign last summer before college came in and ruined everything :augh: To that end, I would like some advice on the topic of campaign structure. I know from e...

Hey guys, I reckon most of you have probably figured this out by now, but I felt that I should make it official: I'm too busy with college right now to work on the mod. Furthermore, I feel that my plotline has gotten awfully bogged down by having a second plot essentially dumped on top of it in the ...

Thanks guys. I might not have been clear enough in my last post. In Mission 9, there are no Keeps, so Theoddry cannot recall any of his troops (Side 2). In Mission 10, he is disabled and cannot recall his troops. I want to give all of Side 2's recall list to Side 1 for the duration of the mission, t...

Hi everyone, I've got a question that straddles the line between a writing problem and a gameplay problem. As part of Mission 9, Veoddry appears, revealing the fact that he is in fact responsible for many of the bad things that've been happening. This makes his brother Theoddry (who has been fervent...

Well, guys, I have to say thanks again. Especially Dugi - your verbal kick-in-the-pants did the trick, and I've already started work on the next mission (got the basics setup and the map done, just need to set up all the units, triggers, etc.

Here's hoping we make it to the end this time!

Hi all, Again, sorry for the delay. Life (and Hearthstone) have been getting in the way again. I've not forgotten the campaign, though, and I'm grateful for your help so far. I do fear, however, that having already published a WiP version of the campaign may have somewhat taken the wind out of my sa...

Ah yes, I must have failed to retitle it properly, somehow. I'll fix that. I'd also like to apologise - in my haste, I forgot to fix a minor bug in mission 4 & 5. In the pre-battle banter for these missions, Mu'Staffar is supposed to be talking to his advisor. However, something went wrong with ...

Thanks again! The parts of the campaign that are complete have now been uploaded under the working title "Lord of the South" (thanks to Dugi for this title). Hope you all enjoy it! Though, knowing my balancing and writing... :P Anyhow, it'll hopefully work out alright. Looking forward to h...

Well, I'm sorry for the nearly fortnight-long hiatus, but I have in fact still been working on the Campaign. As a matter of fact, I've writing this because I've just finished work on Scenario 8 (it's a talkie, the second such, so there's only six "real" scenarios). I've gotten to the point...

Thanks guys. I'm thinking I may well end up putting it on the server before it's complete (with appropriate notification of course). I'd like to take suggestions for new levels and ideas, and I understand that I may end up artificially extending the length of the campaign by adding in missions that ...

Hi, sorry for the break. I fell victim to a dangerous drop in motivation thanks to Hearthstone, but I'm gonna try and get back into the swing of things. So, given the worries that have been outlined with the WiP label, what would you guys suggest I do? Would it be possible to send the existing scena...

Thanks for all the help, guys. I've got a question, though - what's the normal practice when develpoing scenarios? Should I mostly-develop the whole campaign, and then allow people to playtest them, or should I let people playtest them as I complete them (or in batches?). P.S. I know this is the Wri...

I thought i ought to mention that the Tomb is patrolled by the vengeful remains of a motley array of natives, adventurers, and (presumably) some of Alib and Veoddry's men. And, even though the Artifact is gone, the place is still protected by Genies (read: Fire Guardians). So, Alib does have reason...
