Re: Conquest 2.0 - on 1.8 server
Why 8 or 16 players only? If less players is interested to play you can play an all-play-all tournament.
Edit:
Maybe you should start a new thread for the tourney, like here: http://forums.wesnoth.org/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=33342

Conquest Pasarganta
Gwledig, Mabuse (in the alphabetical order):
Conquest Pasarganta (and Conquest Burgoth (I expect Lich_Lord will finish it soon, and maybe 2 more maps based on the Pasarganta map)) can be easily adapted for your Conquest versions.

Re: Conquest 2.0 - on 1.8 server
btw, i PLAN to add a new options to MAIN CONQUEST
as you know, infantry units (except militia and generals) got the ability to "fortify".
by the expense of losing their ability to attack and only get 2 moves per round, they gain +15% defense. fortify represents the ability of unmounted units to prepare for an exspected defense.
new options:
1)
disband.
every unit in conquest will get the ability to disband. by right clicking, you can simply delete the unit.
disband will be only possible if the unit has 1 attack and at least 1 move left.
2) (optional)
trample
cavalry units (and perhaps other big units) get the trample ability.
trample gives the unit another attack (no moves !) after attacking.
is limited this to 1 additional attack.
so cavalry units can kill up to 2 units per turn
3)
changes:
upkeep options will most likely get rearranged (0 upkeep set as default)
as well as other options may get rearranged, so that you have to set up a normal, game juts to click quickly
4)
i also have a new map, already finsihed, but i may need to build-in some things that make it impossible to be copied
5)
other slight changes (like transport status of ships will be displayed)

Re: Conquest 2.0 - on 1.8 server
Welcome back. I thought you abandoned your Conquest.
BTW Conquest players may be interested in this thread: Gameplay differences between Conquest<-->standard Wesnoth

Re: Conquest 2.0 - on 1.8 server
after all, trample is as said just an option i think about.
on the release of the new version i will open a new thread,
and i hope it remains spam-free (else i must ask some mods for help).
this thread is cluttered up with nonsense and non-main-conquest related stuff.

Re: Conquest 2.0 - on 1.8 server
Do you want to rename your Conquest to "Main Conquest"?
Re: Conquest 2.0 - on 1.8 server
no.
maybe "conquest warlords".
but then again .. somone like jinnarakta may show up and upload his stuff under "conquest"
which i cannot let happen.
anyways .. due to some inspiration from another conquest variant -
1)
i decided to reduce fliers total movement by 1 - 2.
(affecting 6 gold (-1 move = 9) and 8 gold (-2 move = 8 ) fliers
2)
also elves get 50% def in forest.
3)
also working to upload MIDLANDS Map
4)
EDIT:
a big and important change is the quicker distribution of ai units in capitol and realm mode.
this was also long time planned. and easy to implement .

Re: Conquest 2.0 - on 1.8 server
just finished point 4. distribution of ai units now takes about 1 sec on surdmark map.
its amazing what you can do with a slight moving of a code part

I don't consider it a big ethical problem. It would be better than if he deleted your Conquest, changed the password, and uploaded his own version.Mabuse wrote:maybe "conquest warlords".

Anyway "Conquest" could be filled by 2.7.3, or the old version with militia, cavalry and general. Sometimes players say they are missing old versions.

One Question, is disband optional ? Like as you can choose a game mod like normal, capital etc etc, is it chosen Disband off Disband on?Mabuse wrote:btw, i PLAN to add a new options to MAIN CONQUEST

disband.

Are you aware this will allow new tactics, even with the 1 attack and 1 move limitations?Mabuse wrote: disband.

It will have a bad impact on many maps, which count with the 10-move fliers.Mabuse wrote:i decided to reduce fliers total movement by 1 - 2.

im not afraid if players develop new tactics.
if there are new tactics, im curious how intelligent players will use them.
2)
if you think to know about possible malicious useage of this, feel free to tell me.
i cannot think about any tatcics using this that have bad influence on the gameplay.
the main reason why this is implemented is to give the player a tool to reduce the upkeep in game with upkeep.

i felt that this is the best possibility to reduce the power of fliers.
after all the 8 gold fliers got implemented with the new version and were seen as too strong.
2)
if there are a lot of complaints i may give the 6 gold fliers (old fliers) their old 10 moves back (from 9 to 10 back). 8 gold fliers (new fliers) will keep their 8 moves.

disband is always possible (=it is not optional).
as said you can only disband a unit (own unit) if it has 1 attack and 1 move left.
i feel it is a basic option, battalions can always be disbanded
(the only thing which might be bad is that a noob who dont knows the meaning of disband will kill his units accidentally - but thats no real problem - a noob might have a little bit more to learn to be succesful in conquest anyways, so it wont depend on the disband button)
2)
about the "misclick"-situation.
i may include an "are you sure to disband this unit ?"- option for disband

Re: Conquest 2.0 - on 1.8 server
I wouldn't call it 'malicious', but in very special situations a player will be able to take an enemy village, only due to the disband option.Mabuse wrote:if you think to know about possible malicious useage of this, feel free to tell me.
