Re: 2p - Isle of Mists [1.15/1.16]
Another run and once again turn 40 was the limit without cheating. I'm not implying it is too hard. I've never won a survival of any sort yet. : - )
This time tried holing up in the central keep but that meant no income after a while.
I also find that the timing of terrain change makes it very difficult. One thing that it really undermines is the enemy move forecast. They don't mean a thing if the water recedes for example just before the bad guys turn... hehe.
Unpredictability is the essence of this scenario. You can't be sure what the next turn terrain is. Or when and where the enemy appears.

Don't be afraid Atreides, you won't see my riposte to your embarrassing post.

Well, the description does make it very obvious that it's meant for experienced players.I'm not implying it is too hard. I've never won a survival of any sort yet.
This tactic does partially work as you have castles and a central hospital but you forfeit income which is used to compensate for any losses.This time tried holing up in the central keep but that meant no income after a while.
Yes, the terrain change happens for the AI side to prevent one exploit from happening. The exploit could have been abused in one-player mode and would result in an easy playthrough. I would not allow such malpractices.I also find that the timing of terrain change makes it very difficult. One thing that it really undermines is the enemy move forecast. They don't mean a thing if the water recedes for example just before the bad guys turn... hehe.
Yes, it is intended to be as such. Have you ever tried it with maxed difficulty (+60)?Unpredictability is the essence of this scenario. You can't be sure what the next turn terrain is. Or when and where the enemy appears.
Alternately, you can just reduce the difficulty settings to like -10/-20/-30 to water down the waves.

Re: 2p - Isle of Mists [1.15/1.16]
Greetings, I have a silly question - how do I play the revised Dark Forecast/Team Survival maps? I love Isle of Mists and it was automatically included with the scenarios in the newest BfW version, but the DF/TS maps seem identical to how they always were. I couldn't find any add-on either for Isle of Mists that would include these revised maps. Thanks!

Re: 2p - Isle of Mists [1.15/1.16]
Hmm, download the addon "Survivals (War of Legends)". They have the revised Dark Forecast and Team Survival scenarios in the package. Note: the revised ones have the suffix "Revised" on them. The WoL variants have "(WoL)" suffix. Hope that clarifies.christucker wrote: ↑April 21st, 2022, 11:04 am Greetings, I have a silly question - how do I play the revised Dark Forecast/Team Survival maps?

Much obliged. The War of Legends in the title might've misled me into thinking it's only for that era.

Re: 2p - Isle of Mists [1.15/1.16]
Originally, they were all in the same Isle of Mists addon, but after the titular was mainlined, the others were bundled into another addon. Yeah, the title and description is somewhat misleading as no one is told what the contents are.christucker wrote: ↑April 21st, 2022, 5:20 pm Much obliged.

It's all good, already trying them out. Not with the Great Steppe era, though! Might I inquire as to what the hell is that?Lord-Knightmare wrote: ↑April 21st, 2022, 5:23 pm

Doesn't seem to be a problem with my add-on since I started Team Survival Revised on Default Era and this error doesn't happen.christucker wrote: ↑April 21st, 2022, 5:44 pmIt's all good, already trying them out. Not with the Great Steppe era, though!Lord-Knightmare wrote: ↑April 21st, 2022, 5:23 pm

Re: MP Survival Scenarios Feedback [1.16/1.17+]
In my latest survival Realm of the Dark, I added support for eras beyond default era.
To achieve it, this must be filled and submitted to me.
For example, this is the template for ageless era...
Likewise, other eras can be added in as well if I get their wave files.

Re: MP Survival Scenarios Feedback [1.16/1.17+]
Okay, so v1.0.3 of Realm of the Dark is available now. The update is for an improvement where the enemy waves will only spawn (if the player side leader is alive.) Which means Coop mode is relatively easier now. Not sure if it's winnable though but you can probably make it to the final waves now instead of premature defeat but turn 13.
Next up, open up middle again if solitaire mode was played to actually allow players to finish up the game.
