Unit weapon upgrades

Post by gatesealer »

I would like to know if there are any other weapon upgrades you can give to your troops within the campiagns. The only ones i've found are the stom tridents, the sceptre of fire, and the holy water.

There are only a few in mainline - WINRPG, after all.

From HttT, there's also the Flaming Sword and Void Armour. There are Holy Amulets (basically, permanent holy water) in the Eastern Invasion. The Rod of Justice in Northern Rebirth... Various other bits and pieces too, but those are the ones which spring to mind at present.

It is not that hard to make your own weapons to the game once you see how they did the others.

After all you only need to have a bit of code and an item image to do so. (checking how they did the void armor, etc...)

While it may be interesting to add a few more "items" for campaings usage, you need to note that wesnoth is about "strategic combat" rather than "power ups" and other buffs "or level 5,6,7", etc... that is more about units.

So unless you like to play a "RPG style" campaing you won't be seeing too many items apart of the mentioned in the first post.

I understand that it isn't about upgrades. I just wanted to know if there was anything else.

There's some stuff in here I've never encountered. Where in Heir to the Throne can I get "Void Armour" or a "Flaming Sword?"

You can get one in scenario nineteen. Which one you can get depends on which mission you picked. Check the walkthrough for details.

Flaming sword was only mentioned AFAIR.

You get the Flaming Sword if you go north to the ice level, the Void Armour if you go south to the swamp level, and a loyal lieutenant if you go to the Cliffs of Thoria (though that scenario is unbalanced and nigh unwinnable...)

On the HttT Snow Plains level, you have to move someone to the big tree near the enemy leader's keep to find the flame sword. I think only Konrad can pick it up, though, or something like that.

Sceptre of fire? :)

I believe Bob's RPG era has a load of these kind of items.
