Epic of Vaniyera
There's been a substantive rewrite to this campaign, the maps and story remain the same, but balance and dialogue has been almost completely redone, so I'm soliciting comment on the new version from anybody, whether or not you played the old version. Epic of Vaniyera isn't that epic timewise, especially now that I've cut out the final level and made the easy levels...easier, so it should be playable in a decent length session. I'd greatly appreciate the feedback, most of all on the points below, but any other suggestions you'd care to give would be great.
Please keep in mind that this campaign relies on the Imperial Era for most of its unit artwork and balancing. If you are interested in contributing to this campaign, era, or in helping develop other campaigns set in the World of Orbivm, please post in the relevant threads or drop me a private message.

Re: Epic of Vaniyera
So I just got to Remnants of the past, and I got Vaniyera leveled up to Shadowdancer during Just in Time. In Remnants of the Past, Vaniyera is back to being a Veiledblade, although I can recall the shadowdancer version of him.. I lose if either of them dies. I'm playing on medium difficulty.

Re: Epic of Vaniyera
Normal 1.6.x release.(1) What difficulty levels and game (& campaign) versions have you played the scenario/campaign on? (If reviewing a specific scenario, please specify. Give detailed reviews of as many scenarios as you feel like.)
Difficulty :(2) How difficult did you find the scenario/campaign? Which, if any, parts posed problems that felt like they should not, and which, if any, seemed unintentionally easy? Were the scenario objectives ever unclear?
From a point of view of person with no Imperial Era experience - at least challenging. It takes a while to catch how *not* to play the Sidhe and it requires getting over some natural wesnoth habits. This makes first playable scenario (Ambush) harder than it probably should be, I can imagine that "average player" (yeah, I know such thing doesn't exist) after few failed attempts not to get wiped out by the Marauders (which requires somewhat unbalanced recruit and really conservative playstyle) will just drop the campaign as unbalanced and move on. If you get past that, and actually accept that fighters are *not* the way to dispose of lavinian archers (which is again, counterintuitive) campaign is pretty steady until Retribution, which again becomes unplayable until you get a spark of insight and rush the green (instead of natural village grabing and trying to fight the lavinians in the trees). When you finally get through, last mission is somewhat anticlimatic and a lot easier, the map is large and there's not nearly enough enemy horsies to make you worried.
Objectives:
"Just in Time" is one huge issue objective-wise. There's absolutely no hint auxilaries can join you if alive, there's absolutely no hint that sidhe lvl 2s on the map can join, and guess what, they are all suicidal, so without these hints it's just not worth it to try keeping them alive. Having or not having a couple of extra lvl2 units and an additional recruit option is to big a bonus to leave as a completely unnanounced easter egg.
"Remenants of the Past" - That cairn you're supposed to be looking for is not south west. It's nowhere near being in the south west, it's actually due south (or even south-east if you want to be strict ). Is the start dialogue supposed to be misleading? And I'd scrap that first turn recruit in favor of having no keep and three autorecalled units from the raindancer line. If you get anything else here it's going to be ripped to shreds by ghosts anyway.
General issues:
Furies - while they might be useful for a faction as a whole, they are useless in this campaign. Expensive, weak against absolutely everything you encounter and really hard to level (5 kills? get real). After few false starts I ended up not touching them at all, fighters are marginally better at holding the line (while being a lot cheaper) and raindancers make much better bowman killers and executioners of the wounded.
Wanderers - any reason why you're not allowed to get them earlier? they could find their uses in first scenarios, and when you finally get them in Retribution, they are far back behind the ghosts and end up largely redundant.
Storyline is good. Dialogs need some serious love to bring out the full potential of the storyline.(3) How clear and interesting did you find the dialog and storyline? If you have suggestions for rephrasing of certain parts of the dialog that seemed awkward or were grammatically incorrect, post them.
It's decent. Mostly because fighting against lavinians is not fun. It's challenging, interesting and forces you to look for unorthodox tactics, but generally there's little fun in fighting an enemy your units are somewhat inferior to. Not being able to kill an archer at night with three fighters is just a case in point. Having to do with a very limited recruit options (two viable for most of the game) doesn't help either.(4) How fun do you think the campaign is? What, if any, are changes you would have made to the campaign to make it more fun?

Re: Epic of Vaniyera
Yeah, Sidhe are weird to play. Not sure what I can do about that though. I am going to make Wanderers recruitable from the start, though, so that should do something.Mist wrote:Difficulty :

Yeah. Totally agree. I didn't write either of those elements in, Oreb did, and I don't really like either of them. (But the level 2 units joining you works better than it used to - you used to have to keep them alive or you'd lose!) I might just take them both out.Mist wrote:Objectives:

Yeah, I'm removing them from the recruit list. Seems to me having berserking/raging units be recruitable in campaigns is almost always pointless.Mist wrote:General issues:

Hopefully adding Wanderers (one of the most fun Sidhe units, IMO) as recruitables earlier in the campaign will help.Mist wrote:It's decent. Mostly because fighting against lavinians is not fun.

Re: Epic of Vaniyera
I'd suggest something like an optional help mode (something like pick up scroll to enable hints, or new turn event with a help/no help option). It'd mean some writing to do, but if player decided to use it he could get some hint's about how to use your units or fight against given units sides (or whatever you decide to give as a way of a hint)turin wrote:Yeah, Sidhe are weird to play.

They might still be made to work, but that would require :
*Driving up caution for your ally (or making him outrightly forbidden to leave the castle before the second night with [avoid])
That, with some dialogs would actually counteract the suicidal tendencies and make it *possible* to try keeping them alive
*Driving up caution for the auxilareis and make them group defensively to make them appear reluctant to fight
Add some dialogs from lavinians promising heavy punishments after the combat and player might actually get a hint something's up and go south instead of east
*Optionaly, make the auxilaries surrender when defeated regardless of wheter the rest was defeated or not. It'd still make sense storywise.
Well with all these archers with no meele roamiong around full berserk might work, but more often than not three rounds of combat are not enough to kill, so rage just doesn't have a chance.turin wrote:Seems to me having berserking/raging units be recruitable in campaigns is almost always pointless.

Re: Epic of Vaniyera
Funny enough, I found a Fury or two to be quite useful, but i recruited them rarely.(Used them mainly against the Archers and the Auxiliaries) Drawing upon my experience playing Lavinians in the Fall of Silvium campaign, I went straight for the Lavinians and ignored the Auxiliaries, save for posting a few Fighters between the Auxiliaries and my Allies.
I failed utterly to get past Remenants of the Past.

Re: Epic of Vaniyera
I downloaded the campaign but when I tried to play it I got a 'unknown scenario' message. Could it have something to do with me having a mac?

Re: Epic of Vaniyera
Nah, add-ons don't have anything to do with what OS you're on, they run completely through the Wesnoth application. It's probably either a campaign bug or you have the campaign version for 1.6.
"I'm never wrong. One time I thought I was wrong, but I was mistaken."
Re: Epic of Vaniyera
No, nothing with mac. The campaign was probably made for a previous version of wesnoth. (Like 1.6) You will have to convert the code a bit in order for the campaign to work on, say, a 1.7 version.revenant wrote:Could it have something to do with me having a mac?

Re: Epic of Vaniyera
Yep, that's the problem allright.
I've converted my fall of Silvium to run in 1.8, and I plan to do the other IE campaigns. The only major change from the 1.6 to 1.8 version is the editing of the "@campaigns" to "~add-ons" in any file reference in the code. I'm not a coder , so I'm going through manually to change this, but obviously other people have had to convert other campaigns to 1.8, I presume there's a tool that can make the automatic changes from 1.6 to 1.8...if someone sould point me in the right direction, that'd be sweet. I'll be trying to put up new versions of these campaigns so that they can continue to be edited and improved in the absence of Turin, who wrote them.

Re: Epic of Vaniyera
(1) What difficulty levels and game (& campaign) versions have you played the scenario/campaign on? (If reviewing a specific scenario, please specify. Give detailed reviews of as many scenarios as you feel like.)
1.4.3, I think. Not sure though.
(2) How difficult did you find the scenario/campaign? Which, if any, parts posed problems that felt like they should not, and which, if any, seemed unintentionally easy? Were the scenario objectives ever unclear?
I think about 4 on a scale of 10. No problems that should not be.
(3) How clear and interesting did you find the dialog and storyline? If you have suggestions for rephrasing of certain parts of the dialog that seemed awkward or were grammatically incorrect, post them.
The story was not very complex, which is hard to do with that little number of scenarios, but the dialogs were quite good. Nothing that needs rephrasing.
(4) How fun do you think the campaign is? What, if any, are changes you would have made to the campaign to make it more fun?
The campaign style is not quite my style, so it wasn't the campaign that was best for me - but that's just my personal opinion.
