THE TRENT WAR --- a new campaign!

[raknefne]

Shops with free items: It is not a bug, it is to encourage to use troops that u normally wouldn't use, like in Jerneland there's a shop in the castle area with free peasants... you would never use peasants else...

Superfly damage: Must be more than a 'wannabe superfly', I thought I had repaired that bug, thx... A guy did the Superfly on impossible...

Upper Trent: When you get here, Sirlancelot, pay attention to the texts when u interact, a player said something sounded strange, but I need to know who and so said it to correct mistakes.

New spells and creatures, AI enhancement: I've decided to leave that for now, it takes too much of me... for instance I made a new creature, that worked just fine, but when I gave it to the enemy it crashed... a guy mailed me about new creatures but never returned the mail...

Spell enhancement in 1.21: Like Avenging Angel, which rarely was used before, and I guess only as level 1, I enhanced it to encouraged player to use different tactics. Like the Magic Axe spell, I rarely learned even as level 1, then maybe now, like Avenging Angel.

The bug I refer to is the crash to desktop when you make right click over the Witch Hunters.

You are right about the free units. In fact, it encouraged me to use Assasins for a while.

Of course he did. The Dragon fliers are very fragile, hence easy to onslaught from afar. Just casting Magic Shackles level 3 was enough for me.

By the way, the leadership limit of this spell is a bit crazy, I can't imagine any combination of troops with so big leadership, no matter their quantity/numbers. I guess was intentional? True, before the spell was mostly useless, but know seems OP.

Fine. I'll keep an eye on them.

Patience. Take it easy.

Sure. I use Poison Skull from time to time, though. The poison effect is rather crippling.

The Grand strategy medal has three tiers, right? It's good you reduced the maximun bonus to +600 leadership. Now you can play with different playstyles without much concern about it.

I have adjusted (reduced) locally the duration of Fear to 1, 2 and 3 turns respectively, to make it more in line with the changes to Slow.

Been thinking the same... Could be 8-10-12 Mana with duration 1-2-3.

Witch Hunt bug: noted.

About creatures: hehe I don't have enough patience. When making Hylfire and Bonfire, Terroin did the modding. I only did quests and maps in Bonfire. And testing. This is new to me...

Witch Hunter bug: I tried having witchies and right clicked - also in battle, had no crash here...



Made a small update 1.22, since I noticed I've left an enemy with a new creature which I later deleted. Game would crash, so had to update:

Trent version 1.22

- Jerneland, bug: A crash might occur, since an army in the snow had a new creature which I later deleted. It could only happen in new games started in v1.21
- Fromlen: Leisner the Superfly (in the water north-west) said 20% more Damage but was actually +20 Damage. Now corrected to just 100% of base attack, which meens double damage.
- Fear: Duration 1-2-3 (was 2-3-4). Price 8-10-12 (was 10-10-10). Crystal 3-5-8 (was 3-3-3).



Wonder about fear, it could be 5-10-15 Mana since the duration is 1-2-3 ...?

The crash should only occur under the circumstances I described, I think. Were the Witch H. modified, anyway? Because if not I figure it would be a problem related to the shipwreck or the area, not to the creature.

Maybe, although in general terms Fear is better than Slow, so it makes sense that the first level of the spell is also more mana expensive.
