The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

1258: When in paintball you tell your short, bearded friend to go to the hill, because dwarves have better defenses there.

Once i had a saurian augur whose name was Bzz. He also had a great nemesis. Cycin, the fencer.
Then there was the dwarf fighter, named Anal, but that's only gossip i heard, didn't see him personally.

I support the suggestions above. To anyone who thinks the arcane spear is too extreme and hard to explain in the lore: People talked about how they want the Dunefolk to become part of the main Default when it's finally balanced enough. If you want any chance for that to ever happen, well, then balan...

I'm not sure if it's the right place to say it or if it was discussed before, but statistics don't work properly in replays, at least for me. Everything that's happened during the match is there from turn 1, the recruits, the advancements, the losses, the damage. And as the replay proceeds, everythi...

Sad indeed. Same thing happened to the 3rd PYRA during the summer.

Tests against the AI would not be enough of course, not even close. But it's still better than nothing (and right now, that's the case) and it would be a good start.

Im a bit disappointed after reading this thread. Seriously, where are the replays, the test games? No faction can be balanced only through discussion. If anybody wants a Khalifate/Dunefolk with Default quality, it's not enough to rename them. You have to go the server, play high leveled games (or cl...

It could work like the different packs in the PYRA add-on for example. This direction, with a lot of eras, would be welcome by me.

Less experienced players and pros are equally important. This is a game, we play it for entertainment, levels will make no difference in that. I don't think it's even a question of opinion, it's just a fact. My whole argument in this forum was about a compromise. You would be absolutely right otherw...

"Hate" is not the correct word in my case, not even close. I was the one who suggested the Default (with Khalifate/Dunefolk) and the Default Classic as a SECONDARY era. Also, i suggested a tournament with them, and said i would participate. I don't think i am an opposer of the era. (Perfect balance ...

As a ladder player, i know most of the currently active ladder community well, and those are the people who play the game at the highest level at moment. And most of them (not everyone of course) are not fond of the Dunefolk/Khalifate at all. Default with 6 factions should be kept around at least fo...

Whatever...
The discussion is clearly about the Default era, that's what i mean, that's what i care about.

Dunefolk is not mainline yet, they are not in the Default era, it's Default+Dunefolk (well, Khalifate right now). It's basically just an add-on that everybody have, you don't have to install it. The debate is about that should it be the only Default era. From what i've seen, it's obvious that's not ...

The way i see it, there will never be a full agreement at this point about anything or even something close to that. Balance of the game is the same for... how many years...? 6 or 7, im not sure. Yet people constantly change their opinions from time to time (me included) and even the best ones have ...

What's the problem with the current solution? There is Default, then there is Default+Dunefolk or whatever it is called. I think the faction is a good add-on, but definitely not "Default material". Most players i know have the same view. Maybe there should be a Default era with Dunefolk and a Defaul...
