The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

From what iambob says, I think he might actually be talking about an attack that drains XP from the target. If so, that could be interesting, don't know if it would be a good thing to add, though.

But I will partly agree with Turin, enough to say that the redhead seems to weaken the focus and distract the eye, and he seems out of place somehow with the rest of the image. Once your eye jumps to him (which it does all too easily), he's very perplexing: what's he looking at that is so much more...

L1 Brigand ---> L2 Desperado Maybe the term "Desperado" is a bit odd for the flavour of Wesnoth, but for me at least, it conjures up the idea of an outlaw with a horse better than any of the others. "Robber" seems too generic; "Raider" sounds more like a barbarian than ...

I think this guy looks pretty cool, but maybe he could use something to make him look more decidedly orcish... I'm not quite sure what, though. Right now he looks kind of like he could be a human barbarian in a mask, or as mentioned above, a zombie of some sort. Actually if you look really closely a...

*scrolls through the name listing* Hmmm... an Orc named "Prudish"?

The level 3 Glider's wings look more like a cloak to me...

Well, I guess the difference is that what now are "lawful" units prefer to wage traditional warfare while "chaotic" units opt for guerrilla tactics. So the adjectives could represent this behaviour: "bold" or "daring" for legal, "sneaky" or "st...

I don't know, most of the alternatives that have been suggested and that I can come up with aren't as good as the current names to me. How about "Sunshine" / "Moonlight" (or "Starlight")? Or maybe even "Sunlit" / "Moonlit" (or "Starlit")?

The bodyguard idea sounds quite interesting to me.

I agree, Northerners feel a little rough around the edges to me and it's annoying that some of their basic units (notably bowman) can only level up once. I think at the very least we should have a level 3 to the Orcish bowman line. A level 3 assassin would be good too, not so sure about the spearman...

Wise - Unit gets a +25% bonus on experience gained from each kill. If a unit was wise, I'd think it would realize the horrors of killing, and seek ways to train without such atrocities. (i.e. double XP for normal fighting.) Good point... I don't really like the name "Wise" for the trait I...

I had a trait idea the other day that might work. I'll call it "Wise" unless someone can come up with a more fitting name. Wise - Unit gets a +25% bonus on experience gained from each kill. Therefore, the experience gained from killing a unit would increase as follows: Level 0: 4 --> 5 Lev...

A definite improvement, but I don't think they look good enough to go in the game yet. Also, I don't really like how the warrior gains a torch when he becomes a pillager, then loses it again when becoming a lord. Anyways, they're not bad so keep it up.

I dislike the font you used for the labels on the new one. I would recommend trying for something that looks more handwritten so that it fits in better.

If anything, I'd rather see a futuristic setting, but whatever.
