Designing a War of the Worlds Scenario & Modpack

[Wyrmshadow]

Have you downloaded my 1st tripod? Its huge too, too damn big. I shrunk the tripod so that it can more easily fit into the square. The first incarntion was freakishly large and the camera angles were all wrong. The new one fits nicely into a city square and I have redone it so that it is back to a silvery white. The bombard, though only 30ft compared to the 200ft of the tripod.. comes up to the belly of the tripod within the game. Some of my past units have been made too large so that I wouldn lose any detail, but I've learned how to combat this problem now so that the units will not look so outlandish and they will actually be centered.

Ahhhh, nope one of the few I haven't downloaded. Yeah the only problem with his is that it sticks out of the city way to much and it does get annoying. Wow, that bombard unit must be small.

Gentlemen my mod has been converted to conquests, and the "only thing" i had to do is redo the civilopedia, pediaicons, and the units32 files


Here is a screenshot of the Martian Flying Machine By Wyrmshadow. Hope you enjoy!!

O no!!! Please release it for PTW also! I probably won't be getting C3C till the holidays, and it'd be a shame to wait that long to play such a wonderful scenario! Ah, well. It's still lookin good!

 

[Thorgrimm]

Amenhotep7 have no fear i had saved it also in PTW version and am doing some final tweaking on it also. So their will be a c3c and ptw version. Just choose your flavor!!

Cheers Thorgrimm

 

[Amenhotep7]

Gentlemen i spent the night trying the scen as the British and some very intresting things occured which convinced me that i need People to playtest the scen. If you are intrested in playtesting please let me know as i need them now.

Cheers Thorgrimm

 

[Amenhotep7]

I'll playtest! What happened???

 

[Thorgrimm]

Well after 2 years the fall of London still has not happened so i need other brains besides mine. Tomorrow i will have a playtest thread up at CDG so that only playtesters can access the beta and i will add your name. Amenhotpe7 are you registered at CDG?

 

[JtheJackal]

why was London supposed to fall?

 

[Amenhotep7]

I'm not registered, but I will tommorow morning! Of course the fall of London didn't happen...In the book, it fell within days, and civ timescales don't go that far

 

[Thorgrimm]

The Martians are supposed to be maxed out in aggresion to make them kill all Humans. The mod is designed to be played as the Martians against the Humans and it is pretty balanced that way, but i was playing the British and expected the ENTIRE British isles to fall i one turn as it does when a human plays the Martians.
But that did not occur so that is why i need playtesters to push it to the max for ways to improve Human play against the Martians.


Cheers Thorgrimm

 

[JtheJackal]

Oh I didn't know it was meant to be played only as the Martians, looks bad for the Human Race

 

[Thorgrimm]

Actually the Martians have a real tough time as the Humans rule the seas and are breeding like rabbits, with enough artillery and waves of rifleman you can take down a tripod, and each tripod costs 200 shields and 1 citizen, so you can see the Martians are hard pressed to replace the forces in the field. Preservation of units become paramount. You will see this when you begin playtesting.

 

[JtheJackal]

then I'll just say it looks bad for England

 

[MarineCorps]

Hmmmmmmm, I could have sworn that this thread got past 9 pages. Anyways, I look forward to play testing this Thorgrimm.

 

[Warlord 101]

Now, I'm really am looking forward to this Mod, but is it just me or does Britain seem to be shaped slightly...incorrectly?
