it's the same you try to erase without a rubber.

You draw an ORIGINAL not tone down a existing unit.

And to erase without a rubber you use a elastic band

. It works but i got stressed out because i lost all my elastic bands.

A mace sounds too powerful for a sorceress... Use a sword instead.

All of the mages and liches and adepts have impact weapons. The Dark Elves are supposed to use a lot of maces, but I didn't like the idea of an all mace race.

Nicolas: Sorry dude, but the soceress just doesn't fit. The clothes are white, and they should be black and purple. Her hair is red, and it should be black. She is carrying a staff, and it should be a mace. If you want something to go from, use the Elvish Lord as an example, but atttempt to draw something from scratch. And don't worry about the fighters, Warrior King has that handled. Keep it up, your starting to get the hang of it

the only way to make something without making it to much like something else is to start from scratch, and by using another unit you want it to look like as an example, NOT a canvas. i found that out late after about ten tries (no exageration) at making a unit.

I think I can make some units:
Name........................hp..alignment..spetial ability....xp...melee attack..............ranged attack...
Dark elf fighter...........34..chaotic.............none.......38..4-5,blade,sword....................................
Dark elf commander..40..chaotic......leadership....90..4-8,blade,sword.....................................
Dark elf nighstalker....46..chaotic......nighstalk....100..4-9,blade,sword.....................................
Dark elf lord................54..chaotic......leadership.....-....11-4,blade,sword..................................
Dark elf obscurer........58..chaotic.......nighstalk......-.....13-4,blade,sword..2-2,cold,gaze,slow
Dark elf artiller.............44..chaotic........none...........-.......5-4,blade,knife..7-4,pierce,crossbow

Liv.....1.........................2.................................3
......................./Dark elf commander......-Dark elf lord
Dark elf fighter -Dark elf nighstalker......-Dark elf obscurer
.......................\Dark elf artiller

If the elf artiller is overpowered tell me.

Going from 4-8 to 11-4 or 4-9 to 13-4 violates RIPLIB.

It would be much appreciated. Do you think you can code a new ability? It is called dual-strike. For every one attack the opponent does, the defender (which would be the Weapons-Master) would strike twice. I've been trying to figure out how to code it but I can't figure it out.

Sorry, I don't think I can do this.

No sweat, I don't know it is possible without re-writting Wesnoth

I can write the code for the units, but that's about it. What I really need help doing is putting it all together into a campagin, but I think I want to wait on that until we have all of the graphics done. Belwar is working on the maps, I'll have him send them to you via pm and explain what happens in that map. Do you have any IM account? It would be easier if we could all get together then just going back and forth on the forums

the easiest way is to get a @hotmail account. Just go to http://www.hotmail.com, and create an account. And it's free!

nicolas, we already have a unit line. although we could use "Dark Elf Lord" for the title of the hero. it would upgrade into a "Dark Elf High Lord"

do you guys think we should change the weapons master to "Corsair"? I think that name is cool.
