The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

You see, devising any sort of experiment to measure this is very difficult. Eyu, your control measure - using Sauron's mod - has a fatal flaw in that the skills in standard Wesnoth do not necessarily translate into Sauron's mod. Accounting for randomness is a major component of skill in Wesnoth that...

It seems to be the consensus here - and based on everything that's said here, I am inclined to agree - that it won't be worth the work to change the current Damage Calculations system.

I don't think you can get a Necrophage leader on Random. I have been having great fun with a Silver Mage in Age of Heroes. A few games with a Drake Flameheart on Isar's has been very relaxing too. A Sharpshooter on Clash is absolutely awesome. Elvish Druid or sorceress are good too. I've had some fu...

Nah, he did specify a good player vs a better player. But how do we know that the 20% the lesser player wins is not due to skill? Weaker players will sometimes play better than stronger players and win, so how do you say, "They should win % of their games, but they win a different %, indicating...

Wow, Soliton. Those replays are...wow.

No, they float. One of the first things they teach you in swim class: the "dead man's float." I'm certain that had the Walking Corpses any sort of consciousness or volition, they would express gratitude that the waterways of Wesnoth hold no hungry fish. I would rather learn the float of a...

So we should drop the glider's HP?

Don't be fooled by any of the first-time posters. Some of them are quite good.

Don't you hate being wrong?

Or am I missing the point?

I couldn't help but think about this a little during the day. The size of the matrix can be limited, in extreme examples, to 30*strikes, since Berserk goes for 30 rounds. So if both units get 10 strikes, say, the array will be 300*300, regardless of how many hitpoints the units have (in this case, l...

The attack that's chosen for you is almost always the best one under the circumstances.

I hope that if given two ranged attacks, one poison which deals less damage and one not, and setting the default to poison, the unit designer places the exception to undead.

This reminds me. You owe me a new computer.
