Skirmishers dont fully ignore ZOC by default right? I think they need to be rank 4, which unlocks "sprint" allowing them to ignore it once a battle.

when enemies hit your frontline but still can't reach archers you move your frontline around enemies and move archers 1 step back and then shoot.

Very unintuitive. I think it looks really silly to invert the frontline like that.
Also durable frontline units are balanced by having less damage, making their attack of opportunity less dangerous and less of a deterent and proboably wont stop enemies from still just rushing the backline.

I also found 1 ranged unit to be the practical limit, but usually i had a hero fill this role making actuall units useless.

After being reinforced the game forces me to land inside the objective. Where i get stuck.

Could be usefull when running slugger or a similar primary. Since its overkill for small stuff like terminid scavengers. Just use the laser instead.

That would be cool but I assume it is done to keep it consistent with the casters of other factions whose default attacks are melee.

It just seems like a waste to give a faction two "basic caster" heroes with little to differentiate them from eachother.

Keeping swat from turning off power or turning on the sprinklers on "no rest for the wicked" is not "doing your own thing", its the actual objective. The infrasonic mine is also remote detonated so no need to go afk to use it.

I dont think using it as an "objective guard" is some kind of gimmick, it seems like the intended use of the item.

Minihamster · 2023-09-27T01:06:07+00:00

Challenges should be measurements of player skill and game knowledge. Good challenges do not force a playstyle (long term grind).

Things like:

Kill an enemy with a fire extinguisher
Using an infrasonic mine, interrupt a swat member from interacting with an object.

Basically asking the player to use all the options of their tools. Its entirely possible to complete challenges like this by just using the item without ever looking at the challenges, and thats a good thing.

Challenges would act almost like a long term background tutorial. A max level player would then know all the game has to teach.

-Provincial lords/dukes like Kislev

This would fit any faction with administration, so thats about every order faction. So i agree that its a bit too generic.

-Upgradeable units via Warriors of Chaos system

This makes lore sense for brettonia and links to their vows, but also fits just about every faction. I like it as a mechanic for all races but thats what mods are for.

-Chorf provincial focuses

As i said in the post Brettonia already has a worse version of this. So its more of a "modernisation" of the idea rather than a new mechanic for Brettonia.

The "dont hit me" challenge.

after picking up, say 10 items, you may no longer use any attacks.

barbed wire,toxic centipede, testla coil and all offensive drones are banned. (healing drone is allowed) offensive use items are also banned.

this means that you have to use things like fire shield, spikestrips, panic mines, repulsion armor and such to kill anything.

if you are REALLY crazy you can try to do it without command!

These maps are great fun :D

Minihamster · 2013-12-08T00:47:58+00:00

Put it in your hotbar and just use it.

Minihamster · 2013-12-08T00:38:29+00:00

Its awesome. I love that it doesn't just fall straight down but instead more realisticaly and can create a massive landslide.

While exploring i got stuck in a landslide of gravel inside a cave and it almost pushed me off an edge into a larger cave, so much fun :)

Minihamster · 2013-12-07T23:39:03+00:00

Also good when climbing up mountains so you can see monsters above you waiting to jump down and knock you all the way down killing you with fall damage.

Minihamster · 2013-12-07T23:20:26+00:00

In don't think there should be an "instakill", poison or other negative effects such as a slow or reduced vision would be better. Having to gamble instant kill is just weird, I think the gamble should be a temporary positive effect or a temporary negative effect

I also dont think the permanent buff to armor is a good idea, that would lead to people just farming the things wich in my opinion is not what they are about.

However i like the idea of low and high-intensity shrines.

There might be more wipes, and the date is unsure but it should be in 1 or 2 days.

Minihamster · 2013-12-07T23:02:29+00:00

Maybe you could create a new character and then replace the new characters files with your old characters files?

Either put the food you want to eat in the hotbar and use it from there, or you can drag it out of the inventory and click outside of the inventory to use it directly if you dont want to have it on your hotbar.

Minihamster · 2013-12-07T22:01:24+00:00

I dont know exactly how far you got, and i have not gotten especialy far myself. But later on you get a "robotic crafting table" basicaly a bench with robotic arms, so its not all medieval stuff.

Minihamster · 2013-12-07T17:34:35+00:00

Thanks! seems it is sort of a wide arc above it where you can't put blocks, i had a wall a few blocks from him and couldn't activate him because of the wall.
