Wesnoth Forum Era

[Golbeeze]

I like the most recent chart. I have a feeling whatever is selected at this point will work out well. The last couple flow charts seem excellent. This era is on the way to better things!

Sorry for potentially dragging this into Development Hell, but we all want a faction most awesome.

*grumbles* I think we've already been through Development Hell (or Hel, if you prefer the Norse spelling ) several time now.

So here is Elvish Soverign's comprimise.

Thanks, Deusite.

We'll go with that chart.

FYI, what I just posted is not the new doom guard

It's the third from the left on the second row of this:


Edit: My pleasure, artisticdude

Okay, so just to clarify one last time--
this is the final, final, final advancement chart, right?

Yes, except that e_s said he wanted to be a Doom Guard and not the Overlord I posted



And I second what Golbeeze said

And me being level 2 rather than level 3

Earlier in the thread:

I had switched places with Aura and used Zero's Chao Doom Guard sprite, but yeah. Unless artisticdude or Captain_Wrathbow objects I'd say this is final.

Ninja'd, but still valid.

Looks good! I vote we call that last one a final before one or both of the developers has a breakdown. The mage line has several options but there's no obvious "best" layout, so we might as well take the current one.

[artisticdude]

...before one or both of the developers has a breakdown.

I... *sob* can't... *writhes about on floor* I... *screams incoherently*


More seriously, I'm glad this has come to a close. However, we're now way off our original timeline, so the release date will probably end up being later than planned. But if the advancement chart has improved through all of this, it was worth it.

[Golbeeze]

The ONLY thing I have to comment on now (I really do like the "final" flow chart for advancement), is the hunter line. I just feel like it should go elf---> baldie. Its probably just my opinion, but somehow going from a neat bald unit (makes me think psion for some reason) to an elf just feels weird.

Otherwise, hurray for final advancement setup!v I can't wait for beta. I offer my services to assist in balancing once you have a playable version. I worked heavily on balancing the Mercenaries era by PsychoticKittens and lightly on other balancing projects.

[Deusite]

Personally I think the tree is best left as it is, since someone - Elvish Hunter better reflects their forum rank.

Minor corrections for my unit description, (I was in a weird mood when I first wrote it )

Spoiler:

Though arresting, the way of the Deusite is mysterious. They are much more prone to lurking, some would say stalking, than other creatures, which to the Deusitia are most interesting when they're committing lewd acts, so that it can moan about them afterwards. Some say it returns to them after a thousand years, as the Deusite can only talk to dead people, others say it just bemoans the existence of semihemidemisemiquavers. But none can tell for the psychopathic screel it emits, and because anyone who says they know it, is a liar, unless they've been killed to death.

Note: Never feed this unit tomatoes, or you shall be vomited into the deep serene.

I might also be encouraging more people to write unit descriptions

[artisticdude]

Yeah, user-created descriptions were something of an afterthought, so some people may still be unaware of it. I'll have to contact those parties at some point, but right now I'm focusing more on balancing. Descriptions are the icing on the cake... you can still enjoy it without, but it's even better with. I've wired in all the descriptions provided thus far save Stern's, although I now also need to replace Deusite's with the revised version.

[Zerovirus]

Might be difficult if I tell you I haven't made a Doom Guard with shadows. Be a dear and make one for me when you plug it in, won't you?

[PeterPorty]

/me hugs Captain_Wrathbow. Thanks for doing me a level 3.

[Aura]

That all sounds good. Looking forward to the development being complete

[Elvish_Hunter]

I noticed that I am a Level 2 unit without any advancement. Considering this, may be a good idea to add me a simple AMLA system like this one?

• +1 melee damage, +20% xp
• +1 melee attack, +50% xp
• +1 ranged damage, +20% xp
• +1 ranged attack, +50% xp
