The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

wait, then what's the difference from the ranged era? I was told that the ranges were longer In thry way you make attacks, I think, the UI. It looks 99% similar to melee weapon attack (I haven't pulled of to show weapon specials in the attack menu for example) Also this is modification, so you can ...

I haven’t played yet, I don’t have a ton of time anymore, that’s why I was asking. Anyway. The issue with extremely high ranges is something like this. If you have archers having a range of 4 tiles, you can bunch up your archers, and as soon as someone comes to attack, they can only hit one of your...

Question, how does this compare to the classic ranged era? Well, you attack over more tiles. Farther than the 2-3 tiles that allowed seems like it’d horribly break the game. You could just make a wall of archers that just instakill healers and squishier units. I don’t remember the exact ranges the ...

FD: Yeah I was tempted to add that disclaimer about it being lua and complex. Good that you mentioned it. SSP: You can install multiple versions of BfW. I have 1.12/14/16 and for the moment 1.19 (switching to 1.18 when I am able - flatpak problems currently) all happily installed. It does cost more...

Surprisingly, the elevation feature seems to have no affect on movement; it is purely cosmetic.

Aww man. I was hoping
Is there any way to allow attacks but not movement between two tiles?

often the enemy ship is the best place to run to- perhaps boarding is a little too easy now? maybe limit the places you can disembark from the ships? bottlenecks? like how the sub does it Hmm, I guess it depends a bit on crew strength... in fact, if the enemy ship is heavily crewed there may be no ...

Its PvPvE map looked interesting too. I forget what it was called... Wesalyn...? Westin...? Including directly onto the deck of the ship which is attacking you. I find when my ship is in danger of sinking that's usually where I end up disembarking to, often with mixed results. :) I'm not sure about...

sorry, it's been... several years. uh. elvish pillager's variant has a dedicated PVP map and mode, and some nice improvements that would be very nice to see back in the original- it's called EP's High Seas Engine, on add-ons.wesnoth.org/1.8/ Are there any specific features you would like to see por...

so uh- is a new version planned for 1.16+? I looked and there is a version for 1.16 anyways. Addons seem to rarely need much if any change for 1.18 so the old version could still work. What I mean is the versions beyond 1.16, I am honest to god downgrading my Wesnoth for EoHS, but you can’t stay on...

so uh- is a new version planned for 1.16+?

I definitely second the request for an upload, but I'd also like to see a dedicated PVP map, You can download the latest version (Alpha-2) from here. Then just take out the contained folder ( The_High_Seas ) and put it in wesnoth's data/add-ons directory. You can even play it online with other peop...

so I love all the new action on the high seas- one of my favorite addons I definitely second the request for an upload, but I'd also like to see a dedicated PVP map, like in elvish-pillager's updated version, where you recruit people and ships with a set amount of gold, and have some pvp fun in a sm...
