Era of 4 worlds, almost 4500 downloads + new portrait.

[powershot]

Yup, looks balanced, but I want to hear the opinion of others.

[Great_Mage_Atari]

How many units are in it? Hopefully more than 4

[powershot]

7, two upgrade lines, more coming soon.

[Great_Mage_Atari]

Did you actually make a campaign/scenario to go along with it?

[averyimaginativename]

Oh, so close Powershot - there's still some mistakes. The good news is, they're *nix specific issues you won't have noticed for yourself.

When I load the era I get:

Code: Select all

ERROR DETAILS:
Macro/file '~add-ons/ETW/factions/Gunners.cfg' is missing at ~add-ons/ETW/era.cfg:5 included from ~add-ons/ETW/_main.cfg:8

Code: Select all

{~add-ons/ETW/factions/Gunners.cfg}

in Era.cfg needs a capital F in factions.

However, once you've done this, you've got working, but invisible units. The problem here is you've used \ instead of /

All instances of fastes\whatever.png in your unit descriptions need changing to fastes/whatever.png

[powershot]

Thanks, it worked for me.

Now it's fixed, anymore bugs noticed please tell me, it would be appreciated.

[Great_Mage_Atari]

Is the whole era Vulcans?

[averyimaginativename]

Just to confirm, it works now.

Need to play a few games before you get any feedback though.

[Shinobody]

@GMA: Could you drop that habit of asking people "what's it" instead of checking things out yourself?
Just download it. (Or read some posts back, to know what's in it).
Alright, downloading it now.

[Great_Mage_Atari]

@Shinobody: Well I'm sorta on my non-Wesnoth computer (gasp). I'm sorry for not living up to your expectations and getting a clearer understanding of a certain topic.

In all fairness I have been following this thread for a while, and got a little lost along the way (what with the 10 or so name changes in it's short existance). I apologize to powershot for wanting to know the details behind his era.

Another bug in Rebel.cfg

Code: Select all

image="fastes/footpadlvl2 - copy.png"

You can't have spaces in file names. This makes the level 2 invisible.

Played a few games, and it's actually quite an interesting race so far. Despite their high defence, and potentially high damage, they're still quite fragile.

You desperately need a melee unit of some kind though. It's risky to take on a mage, adept, most elves or a drake with just one shot in ranged, and you do next to no damage in melee.

[powershot]

A dodging melee unit will be added quite soon, so will the mage and torcher.

Thanks.

[powershot]

BaBoom! The Heavy unit is now added and the add-on is updated to 0.2.5, Hooray!

Will do torcher and mage tommorow.

[averyimaginativename]

This new unit is massively overpowered against undead.

I've beaten an entire undead side on Auction X using just one volunteer militia with only slightly above average luck.

He's also not as useful against mages as I'd hoped...but I'd need to play a bit more before I'm sure about the balancing there.

Some things you could change:

- Change his club for a sword and give him blade instead of impact
- Lower his number of strikes by one
- Lower his terrain defence so they can actually hit him
- Lower his resistance to cold making him vulnerable to adepts

Of course, it's up to you these are just things to look at.

What about pierce? I would like to use pierce because of their sharp clubs.

Attacks will be lowered and 7*2 for lvl1

I will change his cold defense

Instead of terrain defense will lower his health.

DO you think that will do?
