Re: What you hate/dislike the most in user-made campaigns? (Ignoring bugs)

Oh also I think most players don't like it when nasty things happen at random. Like for example your level 3 unit with an item being killed by a lava pit opening up under them without warning. i remember that one campaign, i think it was descent into darkness, had something like ice crushing under ...

Re: What you hate/dislike the most in user-made campaigns? (Ignoring bugs)

Too long campaigns. After roundabout 15 scenarios almost every campaign starts to become boring. The corridor of possible gold carryover widens, enlarging chances it's either turning into a cakewalk or becoming entirely impossible to reach the end without replaying large parts. You're recall list fi...

Re: Stuck on For of Abez.

And you're supposed to make use of your loyal mermen from the Bay of Pearls. Don't recall too many of your regular veterans, except flying shaman types for example, or Elvish Rangers/Avengers, who are also quite mobile in shallow water and are able to use their range attack against the orcs. Apart f...

Re: Scenario 9: The Valley of Death

Marching south to kill the lich (for what reason, what would that help? there is not major re-supply from them) my army gets heavy wounded by those undead and the other 2 army approach and clean me up fact is, that I cannot stand the thing, that no matter how good and experienced my troops have bec...

Re: Buff javelineers pls

Jav can't compete with Sword, but it surely can with Pike. About 80% of lvling spears become Swords, 10% goes to Pike and 10% to Jav. If Sword didn't exist, i think it'd be 50-50. That when you don't expect to reach lvl 3, so outside of campaigns. Why is Sword so much better than Pike? Is it just b...

Re: Why trolls so OP!?

Actually their damage is pretty mediocre compared to other melee fighter units. And their defense is kinda low in many environments.

Re: Orcish reproduction

i think thats similar to how they were in LotR(not sure tho i migth be wrong) where the were made more than bred, just asexual brutish males. The only thing I recall is Gandalf saying something like the orcs were made in mockery of the elves the way trolls were made in mockery of ents (I think some...

Re: Wesnoth Strategy Guide for competitive 1v1 on the Ladder of Wesnoth

What I find missing from this manual is the topic of vision. Some units have more than others. Mostly those with good movement have good vision, but it is not clear how it exactly works for me. It works exactly as movement. Every unit can see one tile beyond where it could move in a single turn fro...

Re: Possible to make mouse pointer your actual finger?

Playing on a new Android tablet, why does the mouse pointer not line up with your finger, instead of just using the whole screen like a super sized track pad? Because it would be unplayable on phones otherwise. Can it be changed to how the apple os works. Where my finger is is the pointer. Yes. Whe...

Re: Career paths for Zlex and Tallin?

Fire Drake and Drake Flare are both very good units, an argument can be made for both, […] Though if i remember correctly, Krash has the resilient trait, which is better suited for the Fire Drake line. Maybe, but I'd argue, that lvl3 leadership is *very* helpful in Eastern Flank for your masses of ...

I feel like your entire post is just RNG frustration.

Re: Carrer paths for Zlex and Tallin?

I'd definitely go with Swordsman/Royal Guard on both. First strike is nice, but on level 3 he's seldomly going to be attacked by melee and pierce weapons are nearly useless in the undead scenarios. Also Royal Guards get an additional movement point, which is pretty rad. Tallin later on switches to t...
