The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

Suggestion for "easy" mode: upon recruiting units, roll the dice twice and let the user choose between two units. I suggest this because I've noticed my early horseman was "loyal, quick" which was not suitable for a battle scenario. Any spearman could have been "strong"...

When I watch that replay, it is beyond me what is happening there. Am I playing a completely different game or what? I can hardly take up with the many wolf riders. Horsemen don't suffice, because they are expensive compared with spearman. And when a horseman faces 2-3 wolf riders, he gets killed ea...

Nice idea with Grüü, but maybe a bit too soon for such a strong level 2 Troll to be available, eh? A great opportunity to let the player choose between one of two followup scenarios. One could be a mission with Grüü's father asking for your spontaneous help to rescue some trolls held as ...

Here's one of my replays of "A Hasty Alliance":

Here's one of miyo's:

The Orc campaign could become the testing ground for the concept of a "civilian" unit, something to add to the atmosphere and story line. Think of weak civilian Orc units which are slaughtered by attacking human units. One of the first scenarios could be to reach and defend an Orcish outpo...

A few comments: "A Choice Must Be Made" is way too easy, no matter what units you choose. It can be a bit risky to not recall any Mages, because if the south undead sends several Blood Bats, they can pose a threat to a weaker unit like Delfador. But with the aid of maybe three recalled uni...

Wow, nice work with those dwarfs. I woulden't say this scenario is unblanced though, I won faster in my game despite the fact that the eastern forces in my gamer were strogner and I was unable to defeat them. :D But you were able to defend against them. Something I haven't succeeded in yet. If I bl...

First of all your not supposed to kill the forces to the east, it IS IMPOSIBLE, don't waste your time trying, Impossible? Nah! The download counter of my replay reads "0 downloads". I assume you haven't even looked at that replay yet. In it, I went through the east with ease. It was possi...

This replay (EASY) shows how much a different set of random numbers can affect the player's luck and hence the game play. It's nuts to move a single Dwarven Lord to the east where he is hit hard by 3-4 Trolls. Ignore the funny mistake that I moved Konrad and Li'Sar to the east, so near the end he ha...

A healing pool might be used when the player has to save a mortally wounded ally, and the objective would be to transport this ally (who has 1 hitpoint, and cannot heal) to the pool. Healing an ally is not possible right now, is it? Would be a great addition, if allied computer player units would b...

:shock: Huih! Was it 0.6 then already? That was the one where only one holy potion could be picked up in the "Valley of Death" ,right? I'm certainly not dreaming that in the "Sceptre of Fire" I've had probably quick units which broke through the east into the first cavern, took t...

In 0.6.1, Sceptre of Fire is impossible mission for me. As pointed out somewhere in the forum, at end of turn three I see several Troll Warriors and Trolls at the east. I've moved with a quick Dwarvish Lord there to cover up the map and sometimes see even more units approaching. Sure, I can hold the...

What about magic users being able to cast lightning bolts into a row of enemies and hit the neighbor enemy and the enemy directly behind that?

What about units with ranged weapons being able to attack enemies which are one field away?

The enemy's recruitment pattern is heavily random. Then that's why some people believe Hasty Alliance and Sceptre of Fire are unbeatable. Miyo's replay looks easy because the opposing forces are much weaker than when I play the Sceptre of Fire. I mean, 2 Ogres (NORMAL) compared with 3 Troll Warrior...

Statistics would be highly interesting for scenarios, too.

Number of killed/lost units
List of what particular units killed/lost
Total damage done/taken
Total experience gained

Optional statistics like that can be useful upon trying different tactics.
