The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

ok thanks for the responses, i was starting to think i wouldnt get any... i know i wont make the art for this so anything would be welcome, i figured their armor would be darker, heavier, and would make them slower than the other dwarves, and i figured the mages might have some sort of turning into ...

first i must note that i have no graphics yet for this idea, and do not consider my skill will ever provide for it or even a campaign, but i still would like to proprose it so here: Background: I come to you now with a tale of a the grim and often scorned upon past of our people, and of our glorious...

I was wondering if maybe the steppe orcs would be more dependent on cavalry like the mongols, considering they live on a steppe?

actually i was thinking the same thing, which would fit well in backing up a place for dark elves to inhabit: the almost unknown expanse of land east of the northern elves forest whose southern borders meets the endlesss expanse of swamp east of wesnoth (eastern invasion campaign)(maybe home to the ...

maybe the giant spider unit could be use as a monster unit in the dark elven line up...

I think the saurian, if they become a seperate faction, could use some sort of substitution for cavalry...but i cant seem to think of what they would ride.....crocodiles maybe?

they also could be survivers from when the orcs drove the humans from the northlands during the end of Haldric I's reign but i think there needs to be something about how the barbarian men (the marauders) formed in the history...

ack srry, i just had thought of this topic before i read the updated history... ...but in the geography section it said "There is no government of the Northlands. Various groups of orcs, dwarves, barbarian men and even elves populate the region." so i was mislead, to think the human contac...

srry, i hadnt researched enough yet, but yes there are barbarian men, but their very vague, the rest is a mistake srry...

im refering to the reference made in the wesnoth geography seciton (it said they live in the wild steppe [check the son of the black eye 1 map]), as well as the barbarian units in the grahpics forum, i forget who they were made by though.....

....and i apologize for my spelling

id brought up this topic, because of a problem with the barbarians in the north of wesnoth who are common enemies of the orcs, if i recall correctly when haldrics people first came to wesnoth they already were fairly advanced, so i created this topic to see if we could have it make sense... they cou...

i think these would be a good substitute for the northern men who captured the wild steppe (which would be like the mongolian deserts [east of the far north]) from the orcs, and might be a better idea than barbarian men, considering when haldrics people first came to wesnoth they were already fairly...

i know this is a bold idea for the time, but i think we should at least start thinking about one, although we probably wont have any animations for a while (and will be much harder to make knowing that the showing of much blood is out of the quesiton), i figured we could introduce the world of wesno...

the only problem with this is that it will seem to "good" (or different) to fit in, but this style is very warcraft like, and would fit great if this kind of music was adopted for the whole game....

and im srry if any inconveinence was caused if im bumping an old topic...

wouldn't dark elves have jet black, purple, or pale white skin and generally white or black hair hair?....but i mean your makin your own race so...

but the really comment is a quesiton of does anyone think that spiders should be included as a part of dark elf culture and for a monster creature....
