The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

the mosquito is verry good and on second opinion the bombardier is also good, if you don't want to change the mantis that isn't so bad either, i'm verry glad so even if you want to make pink beetles i'll agree with that :D ( i tried to make some art my self but it was a bigger disaster then hiroshim...

i'm back again , sorry for not saying anything for such a long time, i think letting the mosquito fight better at dusk and dawn is a good idea but if we just mention it in the unit description i think it will be clear enough to let people know and i'm not going to make a difference between male and ...

I like the ant frames verry much, the bombardier and mantis sprites look different, cant explain what i mean, i think its a different style, the ant doesn't look realistic but thats why i like it better, the mantis and bombardier look like much realer, so they are verry different from other wesnoth ...

this is getting realy ridiculous but here are the last, if anyone knows a simpler way to do this let me know

here are some more, i couldn't do them all in one post

the ant will be level 1 yes. but it's not really neceserry, a level 0 unit can turn into a level 3 unit and so on, the level only indicates the upkeep cost but the ant needs to be level one to keep it ZOC. here are the cfg filles i did, but the pictures arent right yet but since i dont have ythem al...

hi here are the cfg filles for the rest of the ant's, the bombardier and the mantis line (i'll also repost the bombardier, there was a spelling mistake) i also changed the ant levels, they all rose with one (so the ant doenst lose his ZoC and, they are all loyal so it doenst matter) that's about is ...

yep thats what i meant
i was going to drop the leader ant line already but now i have a alternative, the leadership will be used in a cumulative way so each ant will have aproximitly 10 % leadership or something like that
thank you verry much for making the wml

I'll do the higher level cfg's
but the problem is that I dont know yet how we have to do the solo ant leadership but i'll figer that out

sorry for letting you guys waiting :D but i had to make exams, and i'm sleeping most of the time you guys reply :D but it was indeed the point making the line assasin bug--> wheel bug :D thanx for all your input, and thx for making the cfg filles, i could have done it myself but it would have taken ...

that post was extremely usefull :D I already had plague in mind for the queen :wink: i wasn't thinking about three ant lines, but about that all ants have a kind of leadership that only affects other ant's (as their not solitary fighters) that should give them a unique use. the branching of the beet...

the larva's are realy good! thank you verry much
the abmush in forest for mantis is ok for me,
i dont have much time now so that is about all i have to say
grts

so a summary; -the ants should always be 0 upkeep but always verry weak. with one warrior branch and one ranged branch (i still like the idea of ant leadership for other ants let me know what you think about it) something like a walking corps, -the mantids get first strike, marksman, low hp and ambu...

there were some verry good ideas in the replies, I like it that a lot of people think the dragonfly is a good idea :D i think i'm going to apply the idea of the mantis having a firststrike and a marksman attack (seperated offcourse), but i'm not going to give it ambush, im going to keep that for the...

thanx! your post was verry helpfull! after looking up some of the names i discovered these where just the bugs i was looking for. i used a lot of you idea's to make the new unit tree. stag beetle--> rinoceros beetle --> goliath beetle -->wheel bug--> assasin bug manits-->prayer mantis-->ancient mant...
