The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

I could suggest something, though. A few weeks ago, I manifested my intent on doing a pirates vs ninjas vs cowboys era (adding some more themed factions as I would see fit). I had a little work done on ninjas, but I got stuck trying to test my units, and I think my folder was destroyed to make plac...

Thanks for the ideas. I was thinking of making both of the factions mostly mounted. I am trying to find a way to have a mounted unit that loses a certain amount of health lose his horse. He would then have less HP and less movement, but could mount another horse at a village or the camp. Im not sure...

Hm. Cowbows and Indians. sounds like a plan. Coybows revolvers-melee rifles(winchesters)-ranged shotgun-melee Indians tomahawk-melee bows-range rifles-range Coybows -> lv2 Gunman --> lv3 Gunslinger / lv1 Cowboy ---> lv2 Rifleman --> lv3 Marksman \ -> lv2 Duelist lv1 Deputy --> lv2 Sheriff --> lv3 Ma...

I definitely like RPGs. I like a main character that is very dynamic. Lots of leveling options... very customizeable. It would be awesome if you really took the time to create a complex main character. (eventhough it isnt KISS...) Weapons and armor would be pretty cool. I enjoyed Wesband. though it ...

Is there a way to have one unit inflict damage upon several other adjacent units? I want to have a unit have an area attack and inflict damage on all surrounding units. Can someone help me?

Thanks so much, it works great!

this sounds like a pretty cool idea. however, i think the effects might be a little drastic. I think if you simply changed both the time of day and moral effects to maybe 15-20%, it would add some more variables to gameplay without really screwing things up.

How can i use the [advancement] tag to change a units defend animation? I'm assuming i should use the [effect] tag, but i cant seem to get it to work...

Thanks so much!
