I think ethne and einion should be lawful. The elohim are a protective, dutiful people.
I wasn't sure here. I DID give them one Lawful leader, but opted not to for the others. I want Einion to be the max Good leader, and Ethne I don't think can be described Lawful after the scenarios (Brought in the Mercurians against the laws of her people in order to save them. Not chaotic, but not lawful.)
Basium is so overwhelmingly utterly lawful good that It's illogical to think of why you'd choose anything else. Make Basium lawful please. Check his pedia entry where he crushes people without hesitation because they show the slightest demonic influence, even though they were offering to help. A case could be made for basium not actually being good given the disregard for life, and I wouldn't mind him being on the low end of good so he can easioly become neutral. But his lawful/chaotic stance is unquestioningly far towards lawful. He's devoted his eternal life to hunting down and destroying demons wherever they appear.
Working from the same exact base material, I view him as chaotic. An absolute disregard for who he kills in order to get his way? How does that fit lawful? He broke the highest law he was required to abide by in order to continue his crusade against Evil; He is Good, but he is nowhere NEAR Lawful. Unless you can come up with an explanation for him being both Lawful AND breaking the highest law in Erebus, he will remain as the Lawful Chaotic leader (If you check, there are 9 leaders with max alignments in one axis or another)
Edit: To clarify, I'll post the definitions I'm using for the two axes... Warkirby, you should recognize these. Although the post IS from October.
Lawful: Actions determined by rules of others
Chaotic: Actions determined by own beliefs
Good: Actions to help or protect others
Evil: Actions to serve own interests only, even at the expense of others
All other alignments can be put together using these bases. Neutral falls in between.
I think all ljosalfar leaders need a little more of a chaotic shift
For the most part, I agree. I opted for different alignments (Within reason) for gameplay purposes, however. Most have high weightings towards Chaotic.
Make Arturus lawful. A non-lawful dwarf is heresy!
Again, gameplay.
Is there a reason why Mordmorgan isn't chaotic?
Ditto.
I'd make all the hippus leaders chaotic, personally
Ditto again, though I may do so with all but Rhoanna.
Make Dain chaotic, IMO. Possibly valledia too. Chaotic neutral is synonymous with magic
Now here, I honestly wasn't sure. There are enough leaders I can afford some variation here.
I'd say chaotic for Sheelba too
Again, gameplay. They have 1 Chaotic, 1 Evil, 1 Chaotic Evil. I'd prefer to keep it that way.
Faeryl definitely needs to be chaotic, moreso than being evil. Dark elves are known for loving partying, and being all about backstabbing.
I don't see her as too chaotic. Yes, they are backstabbing... But I'm also fairly sure that amongst themselves, they'd be fairly law-abiding. The two balance out.
Any reason why Os Gabella isn't chaotic?
This one I wasn't sure about. Might change it if more people question it.
You know how I feel about cualli, but we already discussed that.
You felt they should be Chaotic Evil (Clarifying for others who read.
). Personally, I'm not sure about that. From what Vehem has said before, they seem to have an ordered society, even if they advance by killing their superior. One thing I'd like to bring up: One of your own posts in the FF Team forum describes the Cualli as Lawful Evil.
I notice you changed the chislev alignments from what was previously posted. I disapprove. They need a chaotic leader, and absaroke didn't seem too lawful to me. I'd say go back to natane as chaotic
Really wondering when I changed that... Wasn't intentional, and had I been paying more attention I'd have caught it. Natane is back to Chaotic (-380) and Absaroke is Neutral, though weighted towards Lawful (185).
I mentioned korinna earlier also.
Yes, but again, gameplay. She's very close to Lawful, but I want to keep her neutral.
The mechanos strike me as chaotic personally, given their intentions of overthrowing the gods, disrupting the old order, etc, and bringing in a new era of mankind. they're revolutionaries in a sense.
That is all
I'm not sure... I tend to view them as being skewed towards lawful evil, though remaining Neutral. Many of their techpriests (who are in control of a large amount of power) are VERY logical thinkers... Just read the pedia entries. To me, computer logic like that is equivalent to Lawful.
It's done correctly in game.
The civs/leaders are listed in XML order, as I'm just writing it as I come to it in the file.. Multi-civ leaders are left with the first civ they come under.
