Re: Hornshark Island (new)... something needed to be changed

So-

Here we go, the new config. The unit set is designed with Khalifate in mind, but will show up for any non-mainline faction.

I've tested it a bit, and there don't seem to be any problems. Check it out though, and if you don't see any errors, feel free to commit it.

Re: Hornshark Island (new)... something needed to be changed

Following the suggestions on IRC, there are now no units created in case that one or both of the players have a faction other than one of the factions in the default era. If the default era is used, the units are guaranteed to be created (this was not the case I think). (r52583) Note that this comm...

Re: Hornshark Island (new)... something needed to be changed

About all of the above, your language initially seemed very harsh and wrong-headed ("give up this idea..." etc.), and targeted a subject that you didn't seem to know much about. If I overreacted and got a bit harsh myself, I'm sorry for that. Anyways- To me, they're already playing with fi...

Re: Hornshark Island (new)... something needed to be changed

Please give up the idea of a unit set which depends on the faction used. Not a chance. Maybe it's news to you that no mainline map is balanced for non-mainline eras or factions, but this has been true for a long, long time, for reasons that are apparent to anyone who plays competitive multiplayer. ...

Re: Bold New Maps

About new version of hornshark island... I have to say I don't like it (i prefer a lot the old one). This is explained here: http://forum.wesnoth.org/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=35870 However I have to mark a thing that it is must be considered as a bug. The current loyal-units-system is not good beco...

Re: Hornshark Island (new)... something needed to be changed

What follows here is a gigantic post, but I do hope you all will read it carefully, particularly the stuff about Hornshark, towards the end. :D ******* Thanks for the answer Cack, but there's a lot more to say here- I think Nobun is way off in his assessment of a lot of things; not just this one map...

You know, it's kind of annoying that you've dredged up a really old thread, offering no new points or arguments; no replays, or anything at all. :P

Please don't do that again.

Re: Best two units, the tournament

I'm going to be looking to play a match or two around 17:00 GMT. Anyone available to play should meet me on the server. :) I'm going to be away for the weekend, but will be free again on Monday. EDIT: Well, I'm off to the Wild Lands of Vermont. Probably won't have access to Wesnoth, though I suppose...

Well that would be very different. (...) Maybe I should just use cavs. ;) Yes, please do :mrgreen: In a 2 units faction, chosing a scout rather than a fighter is already quite audacious, so I don't want to discourage this kind of strategy by restricting village picking.
