Dragonlance: War of the Lance discussion thread

[Takhisis]

Well Spacer, I´ll do that map in a couple of days then... I guess 36 hours´ work would do it... together with some bottles of coke and some RON interspersed with the modding... imp
Supa, I don´t intend to kill you, just a geas would do the job efficently.

 

[saneville]

Yes, I'm sure the undead have much better things to do with their time than build cities.

With regards the Zhakar, although they have very few of their own place names, since they sprang from the ruins of Thoradin which was destroyed in the cataclysm, perhaps you could use other Thoradin city names. After all Zhakar was originally a city name in the nation of Thoradin. I realise this is not historically correct, but should be ok for the purposes of your scenario. Let me know if you want a list of the names.

You've got problems with the Kagonesti place names unless Takhisis can find the list of campsites. As they lived in forests, perhaps you could consider using well-known forest/woodland region names.

Anyway, keep up the good work.

 

[Takhisis]

Hey folks, what´s going on with this? Anyone still around?

 

[Supa]

I'm still around and I'm getting back at unit making and scenario designing, even if I'm preparing a much smaller scenario first.

 

[Takhisis]

All right then, if you want any help, PM or email me.

 

[Supa]

Free candies for those who can recognize this WIP unit.

 

[CartesianFart]

Takhisis
dont know,i only read the book of "War of the lance."

 

[Supa]

Definitly not Takhisis. They didn't appear in the WotL books, as far as I can remember.

 

[Stormrage]

Wow, that thing is great! I think Hikaro might be interested in this..

 

[Supa]

Really, Hikaro needs a horned worm for his mod too ?

This guy still needs some clothes. (Click for a better view, the thumbnail compression decreases a lot the image quality)

 

[Stormrage]

I`ll send him over, I think he will like it The riderless version tho. Riding a worm.. ugh..

 

[Supa]

Well, it's more convenient than horse in underground cities. ;-)

 

[DJ Bonebraker]

Hmmm.... That would make a good Landworm (advanced Barb unit).... Or something like that....

 

[Spacer One]

ok...Im stumped...I even looked through the monsterous compendium...what is that thing?...I didnt come up with any worms that big...much less ridable...

 

[Supa]

Ah, you need to update your source Space One. Okay, this thing is an Urkhan Worm also called tractor worm. They're used by the Thorbardin dwarves as mounting and force works in tunnel diggings. In game, they will be a mounted unit with medium att/def value, ignores Moutains mov. cost, and suffers from the mov. cost of every other terrains. It will probably have a worker version, with the same restriction, only def. value and, naturally, worker actions.

 

[Stormrage]

Hikaro - My first thought when I saw the riderless version was the Midgar Dollom, or whatever it name was, the huge mother, but now I remembered it was more a snake than a worm.. Aaaand just now I remembered that you might be using Kinboats King Cobra for that... Sorry, sleep deprivation gets to me sometimes

 

[Storm Grunt]

Kinda reminds me of that creature from the movie Tremmors.....

looks great.....

 

[Supa]

Updated leaderheads

It's difficult to find a black LH with euro-medieval look.. And I need two of them

Ogres, Kenders and Gnome LH are still missing. As egroen suggested, I might use Samwise as a kender LH but I would still need another (and female )
