[MOD] Fall from Heaven

[Kael]

When you get various elementals to be summoned, have them take different turns depending on the terrain, like fire take one on dessert, two elsewhere, earth take one on hill, two elsewhere, water one next to a river, wind one on plains, etc.

Currently the Water Elemental is a DOMAIN_SEA unit, so he is only traveling there and the Fire Elemental cannot travel through snow tiles. The Earth Elemental has a movement rate of 1 but he can travel on any land tile (making him one fo the few units capable of attacking a ranger sitting on a peak). Im not sure what to do with the Air Elemental yet.

Kael, this is a really brilliant, fun Mod and satisfies the D&D geek in me! (this mod is better than DragonShard!).

Anyway, just wanted to cheer you on and, I wonder... Have you noticed any way to potentially change the tile bonuses per civ? I mean, is it possible for the Dwarves to get an extra Production from hills, or an extra Food unit from forrests for Elves? Etc.. perhaps a Civ specific Building that when built gives those sorts of bonuses... anyway, like you said, get things currently working to 100% before moving on to the wish list

Can't wait to see .7 and the future.

Cheers!

Yes, in fast with 0.70 only Runes of Kilmorph state religion civs can research Dwarven Mining which gives +1 Gold from mines. Woodelf also had the awesome idea for a special kind of froest called Ancient Forest that only grow in Fellowship of Leaves lands and provide special bonus's. I have big ideas for that concept but its gonna take me a while to code it.

Are you planning on improving the value of Workshops? It seems like Dwarves should be able to utilize Workshops pretty well.

Probably nothing specific for the dwarves. The dwarves ability to be sacrificed for production already gives them a pretty powerful way to boost production that captures this flavor and adding and additional production boost for them could be unbalancing.

I just had the most surreal game. There is a wonder in the game called Wrath Unleashed. It summons the Avatar of Wrath, a huge 20 strength guy that shoots 3 fireballs per turn. He is mean, powerful and a unique barbarian controlled unit.

You build the wonder, but you don't get the unit (this is my Chaos sphere wonder). Instead the computer randomly picks a city from the world and gives it to the Avatar, and 20% of the worlds units fall under the Avatars influence and leave their home countries to join him, all becoming barbarians.

I was doing okay scientifically and financially. I had rushed to get the Order early on and I was enjoying its rapid spread. But the rush had cost me, I had gotten blocked in on both sides by countries with larger military's in this large C shaped world.

Unable to risk a full out attack and leave myself exposed to my other neighbor I built the Wrath wonder. He hit my units pretty hard, I lost a lot more than my share of units, but the city he had spawned in was perfect, on the very tip of the C, on the opposite side of my most powerful neighbor.

Of course the Avatar wasted no time and tore into my neihgbor with his new found army and my neighbor began to pull all troops of my border to go fight him. So I wandered up to grab a few exposed cities for myself. I only hope my neighbor manages to kill him before he comes to far, I don't think i could deal with him. We will see.

Wov... Was that Avatar guy on 0.50 also ? I just don't remeber such...

No, he is new for 0.70. The first of the Avatar units.

Wow, Kael, that sounds like a veri exciting game!!! Good luck with it!! Can't wait to try it myself.

 

[woodelf]

That sounds amazing. The carnage from that Avatar must be awesome to behold.

 

[jafink]

Come on Kael, Realease 0.7!!!! Can't wait to try using the new avatar feature! That sounds amazing. Keep up the great work.

 

[mrkingkong]

Firstly AVATAR UNITS!!! Release 0.70 now!

And secondly 0.70 already!!! This mod is progressing very nicely! You're going to have to slow the numbers down though so we dont go over 1.0 before the new units are in it (thats presuming of course that you intend to put new units in, which undoubtedly, read hopefully, you will)

And thirdly this mod is becoming very very popular. I check in almost on a daily basis and have found that i am missing PAGES of information! Very popular, but deservedly so. You have inspired my push to finishing my fantasy mod also! Thanks!

And finally hurry up with 0.70 im very impatient to be playing it lol!

[Phoenix Set]

[Kael]

[V. Soma]

Anyone having trouble loading saved games? I started a brand new game last night and 45 min I get a CTD. I had about 4 different saves for this particular game, but each I time I try and load them I just CTD again. This only happens with FFH and I'm not really sure how to reproduce it.

 

[Nadin Bytefelt]

Big babys .waiting pls.

I have Big respect for Kael work. Thnks for you good Mod.

The only time I ever CTD after loading a save is after making a change. So you can't reload saves from the 0.50 version with the 0.60. Or even something as minor as going and adding a new unit int he xml will make your saves CTD on load.
