D&D mod: tjedge1-Mystara

[Arghis]

hop ! and one new (small) part of the map is done.

 

[tjedge1]

That is beautiful Arghis. Man this map is good. I think I might try my hand in conquering my most hated Empire. Alphatia!

I wonder if I could do it with Ostland. That might be too tough. Alphatia is only the biggest empire in Mystara.

 

[Eddiit]

Yah Im psyched....I think you could take them out...in the epic game everyone gets one settler so you have as much a shot as anyone else...go get em!

 

[Arghis]

i'm beginning working on Skothar continent (and by the way searching informations on it).

here's the esterhold peninsula

 

[Arghis]

The isle on the east of Davania ...

[tjedge1]

Those islands look great. I think the Malpheggi just found their new home. If you need some references to Skothar you could check some of the links in the Overview. The first 2 links I believe have extensive maps. I know the first one does for sure. If you need them. Man these maps are awesome.

I'm posting another update on my progress.

Finished organizing the following on the Spreadsheet: (bold is completed)
Non Combat or Support:
Settlers
Workers
Scouts

Offense:
Warrior==>Swordsman==>Infantry==>Gun Unit

Defense:
Spearman============>Pikeman==>Gun Unit

Artillery:
Immobile Siege Craft==>Mobile Siege Craft==>Advanced Siege Craft==>Cannon

Mounted Horse:
Rider==>Knight==>Cavalry

Alternate Mounts:
Camel Rider==>Camel Knight==>Camel Cavalry
Elephant Rider==>Elephant Cavalry

Navy:
Pre Galley==>Galley==>Heavy Galley==>Frigate==>Massive Ship

Winged Mounted/Airships:
Mounted
Airships

Ranged:
Archer==>Advanced Archer==>Gun Unit

Currently working on Ranged, then Mounted Horse, Mages, and Extras.

Once organized in the spreadsheet, I will begin entering them into the editor. Won't take near as much time since I will have them organized and it will be copy work from a printed out spreadsheet. I currently do have all the unit graphix to complete the needed lines. Still adding units to the extras though.

EDIT: my 1900th post.

 

[Eddiit]

You should name the elephant calvary mobile fortress.

 

[tjedge1]

I actually named it Thunder Brigade. The above name "Elephant Cavalry" was just a catagory I placed it in. Mobile Fortress does sound pretty good though. Sind will be the main civ with elephant units.

 

[Eddiit]

You could call the first one thunder brigade and the second mobile fortress perhaps?

 

[tjedge1]

Yeah I think I'll call the Elephant Rider one Thunder Brigade. THe One with the 2 guys hanging on the side shooting guns will be called Mobile Fortress, maybe. We'll rename most of the units in the beta process. For now I'm giving them easy names just to get it up and running.

 

[Arghis]

it's still to be polished, but the essential is here (unless rivers)

 

[Arghis]

[Arghis]

What a nice name for this isle at the end of the Skothar continent

 

[Arghis]

proud to say that for the essential the world map is done. Oh i admit some part are still a bit rough, and it's not 100% playable. but it soon will be !

Now i can attack city placement and correct / polish all areas

example : arm of the immortals

 

[Arghis]

still testing for my Lm plains steppes. it's not that bad, but LM tileset are really not easy to work with

 

[Arghis]

just a try. not bad, but some annoying differences with common pine forest

 

[Eddiit]

Ooohhhh looks good...i think were really making some progress.

 

[tjedge1]

Nice work Arghis. It won't hurt anything if you throw in a river or 2 in Skothar. Just put them outside the "known" areas mapped in the Dawn of Immortals and so on. That way the civs stuck there will be able to grow a bit. If you want. I was thinking 2 versions of the same map. One with cities and one without. SOme might like to start their own empire form the beginning. I'll add that to the scenarios list.
