The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

I have another new unit idea fir the Arendians. This one is a creature from Welsh lore, the Llamhigyn y Dwr--a giant, man-eating, legless, semi-aquatic, semi-flying toad. I'm no good at picel art, though, so someone else would have to make a sprite, if there's enough interest. But what do you all th...

For anyone who may be interested, I have just published a new book. Unlike my previous one, this is a work of non-fiction, specifically comparing the Bible and the Qur'an and arguing that the latter agrees more with the former than most people think. Controversial, I know! Anyhow, here's the link: h...

I originally made the Septimander as an optional new unit for the Arendians, but it might also be a good fit with the Cavernei. Personally, I think I prefer Cavernei with bats, but if someone is interested, I could make some files giving the Cavernei Septimanders.

And here it is! The Arendian Zombie! Or more specifically, the Hungry Corpse / Fear Gorta!

True. They don't really need plague. The curse (slow) attack is closer to the original Irish lore. Thanks for the feedback!

I had another idea for a new Arendian unit. First, the motive for all these new unit proposals is that having the horses swim in deep water seems like a bit too much of a stretch to me, so I'd like to find a viable alternative. Anyway, this new unit idea goes back to the Arendians being based on the...

I'm taking a bit of a break from my quest for a new Arendian unit, though I do have another idea. In the meantime, here are some files adding Vampire Bats to the Cavernei. Dwarves live in caves, bats live in caves. Why not?

I haven't implemented that change for the Arendians just becuase I think the faction is more interesting without a dedicated swimmer, but if you want to play with them like that, go right ahead. :) That's the great thing about open source. And I've certainly provided enough variations on the theme!...

Good to see IE updated for Wesnoth 1.16! Also, I have again revised my proposed Arendian swimmers. I changed the level 1 unit's name to Far Swimmer, removed Submerge from the level 2, gave the level 2 Backstab, and increased both their attack damage. I have also removed the Bowrider's ability to swi...

O.K. I have here a new version of Cormoran Island, dubbed Cormoran Island Flux. I have eliminated two villages, an oasis, a dry dirt, a rubble, a cave floor, and a dry grass. In their place, I added one village, five oases, two castle spaces, a sand dune, and a cave path. I also changed one village ...

Thanks! Glad to see this era back again!

Thank you.

Hello. I'm experiencing a bug that appears to prevent the experimental AI from recruiting any units at all. The king just sits there until he gets attacked. I'm attaching a screenshot: Open data/ai/lua/generic_recruit_engine.lua and look at line 760. It should look like this: lawful_bonus = wesnoth...
