The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

It was originally coded to win by killing all the "west bank" elves (as well as by the usual method of killing the leaders), but that code is currently commented out. We'll have to wait for Benj to finish writing and revising the scenario to see whether the "clear the west bank" ...

Theme looks interestingly different, particularly the first scenario - essentially a "solo" expedition. Second scenario is closer to the "traditional" style. Based on the initial release of first 2 scenarios, run on current CVS version of wesnoth, in easy mode. Disclaimer - other...

A tip for the Desert level... If the scorpions are coming singly, blast them with the PDs. They take loads of damage from fire, so 2 PDs should kill one. My mainline was the one being recommended *against*... Trolls. Regeneration cures poison, hehehe. Even with the 70% resistance, I still get an ef...

Yes, seems to have solved it.

Thanks

From CVS of approx 05:30 GMT today: z_ai.cpp and z_ai.hpp appear to be required by the Makefile, but absent from the download.

Another option from the iron theme is "ironside".

This was used as a nickname for King Edmund II, for Oliver Cromwell, and for cavalry units in the army of the latter.

Those cases could still overload the default, if desired.

Whilst browsing through the unit config files, I noticed that all the dwarf units include the following code : [resistance] blade=70 pierce=80 impact=80 fire=90 cold=80 [/resistance] For ease of writing new dwarf units, and adjusting/rebalancing existing ones in the future, I think this code should ...

Tolkien's 'ents' might have been based on Woses. Wose is a name from British folklore referring to a hairy, troll-like being supposed to inhabit woods and forests*. The woses in Tolkien's work were really a different race of men. However, the real folklore wose seems similar to an ent and a reasona...

well, since turns are several hours long, I suspect that the gunners would have time to reload. Agreed - though during our four-hour turn a swordsman is probably entitled to more than four slashes with his sword. Except for purely tactical wargames (with turn lengths representing 15 seconds or so),...

Another option would be to change the mechanics of guns slightly, adding one (or more) "reloading" rounds between firing rounds. Whilst well-trained late-era gunpowder units could fire two rounds per minute, or more, I suspect early units would be closer to five minutes per round. Thus ear...

Nevertheless, I don't think the Gladerider really needs a charge attack. Increasing its damage a little and beefing up its range attack should do fine. Agreed. And if you want justification for lack of a lance, other than "because it upsets the game balance", you can also use "lance ...

Elves should not get a charge attack. Charging attacks require stirups to enable the rider to take advantage of the horse's (or whatever's) momentum to deal extra damage. This is why cavalry in the time of the roman empire and preceding it was generally not used to great effect. The knights of the ...
