Re: Beyond the Watcher's Horizon [SP Campaign] - WIP

Indeed, it's another instance of Wesnoth players outsmarting the scenario designer :lol: I didn't mean that gap to be sealable, the idea is to stop the enemies in the eastern chambers. I think I'll remove the possibility of blowing up that chunk of the cave, it will be fixed when I release the next ...

Re: Beyond the Watcher's Horizon [SP Campaign] - WIP

Thanks for all the bug hunting, as usual! :) I think I fixed all of them (new version is uploaded). Majlad is not on the map for some reason, that leads to some serious gaps in the conversation. Also, instead of actually Khafir being recalled, it's just some generic Dune Explorer saying his lines. T...

Re: Beyond the Watcher's Horizon [SP Campaign] - WIP

A small update is out, this time with a new cut scene and another playable scenario. Those who played 'desert traders' will recognize the mechanics, with minor modifications. All comments/bug reports are very welcome!

Re: Beyond the Watcher's Horizon [SP Campaign] - WIP

The campaign has been updated with two more scenarios + one cut scene. S15 is again a bit experimental, so I'm happy to hear opinions on that.

Re: Beyond the Watcher's Horizon [SP Campaign] - WIP

S11 ... It might be good... nice idea, I added a line of text and the label! S12 - This was a tough level. No Qilah at the start. Ouch, that's a bug, I think I fixed it now. Dialog might have felt a bit awkward without him :oops: I also added 10 turns, in case it was frustrating for the time limit....

Re: Beyond the Watcher's Horizon [SP Campaign] - WIP

After a disproportionate Christmas break, two more scenarios are added to the campaign. I'd be happy to hear opinions on the map of S11, in particular the enemies' position and distances, and on the mechanic of S12.

Re: Children of the Dust [SP campaign for BfW1.14]

I recently uploaded an updated with something like what you suggest. I hope it's not confusing anymore.

Re: Beyond the Watcher's Horizon [SP Campaign] - WIP

Ah! I suppose it's still possible to sneak in without the spectres catching you. :hmm: not sure if it's a rare occurrence and I'm concerned about making it too hard. It took me a couple of scenarios to realize how to make explosions and digging work. I didn't realize it was a right-click option. Aft...

Re: Beyond the Watcher's Horizon [SP Campaign] - WIP

The Necrophages respawn where they die. Is that intended? There seems to be an error message when that happens. Hmm, I haven´t given too much thought to it. I'll apply a small change. Setting up Ghosttraps is exhausting. But the scenario is probably not doable without those. Yeah, the idea is for t...

Re: Beyond the Watcher's Horizon [SP Campaign] - WIP

:lol: :lol: quantum skeleton... that's amusing enough to be considered a feature, not a bug. Maybe I can have it comment something about the situation, if that happens. It would be nice if any unit stepping on the tablet (28,25) triggered a reaction, something saying that someone should take a look....

Re: Beyond the Watcher's Horizon [SP Campaign] - WIP

Aaaand two more scenarios are out, together with several minor fixes/improvements on previous scenarios here and there! Opinions on S9 are especially welcome since it's somewhat experimental.

Re: Beyond the Watcher's Horizon [SP Campaign] - WIP

Maybe an achievement for keeping the guards alive? Interesting idea, could implement it here or in similar scenarios Maybe an achievement for killing scorpions? I thought about it, but it's too similar to the crocodile one. I'm going to include a more 'relaxed' one. Btw, why can't I recall any of t...

Re: Beyond the Watcher's Horizon [SP Campaign] - WIP

Prologue was rough. In a good way I hope :whistle: by the look of your stats, it seems you haven't taken the easy way out Is it just me, or are there so far only achievements for the first 4 scenarios? Indeed, couldn't come up with original ideas, for S6/7. Maybe that will change in the future. Tha...

Re: Beyond the Watcher's Horizon [SP Campaign] - WIP

New version out! 2 More scenarios, shorter and more relaxed than the previous ones. Some sightseeing, useful trivia, and convenient academic connections.
I also tuned down the respawning of crocodiles in the bridge scenario to make them less of a nuisance.

Re: Beyond the Watcher's Horizon [SP Campaign] - WIP

Hi Otdoy! Nice to see you are still around and thanks for your encouragement, as usual. That's always a great motivation boost :) Oof, the bridge building scenario. would you believe it, it was a pretty straightforward scenario 3 days before publishing the update. Then I thought it was too basic (an...
