Discrimination Against Swamp-folk

Post by Shade »

It it just me, or are there no swamps in Wesnoth? Why? Just a random thought.

There are swamps in the first dozen levels of the 'Heir to the Throne' campaign! Hmmm. . . My poor sleep deprived brain. . . Where? I just can't think of any off the top of my Head. . . Just me being Crazy.

Thanks. . . I feel better now. I'd hate to have to start campaigning on behalf of swamp folk, they smell awful.

Swamp terrain is a bit new so some older maps doesnt have it...
Feel free to review them and told us (or better edit them and post the edit here)

There is a scenario called "Swamp of Dread" in the campaign, and it has....lots of swamp!

It's possible that we should add swamp to some other scenarios: Elves Besieged, Blackwater Port, Isle of Anduin, Muff Malal's Peninsula, and the Valley of Death.

i don't think elves besieged would work well with swamp. i'm not sure about blackwater port. the isle of anduin, muff malals penensula and valley of death would all be good with swamp. of course, i'm not sure where you would put the swamp, but its a good idea. :)

It wouldn't have to have alot of swamp, and perhaps not even swamp in any significant places.

Although otoh the area where there is a mound of hills that a player using across-the-bridge-then-cut-north-west strategy has to get past could be replaced by swamp -- this'd likely make it easier for the player though, since Elves are pretty decent in swamp, and orcs aren't.
