Re: [1.9.x/1.10.x] Dead Water

I agree with you about its difficulty. I thought this to be the consistently most difficult campaign I've attempted, with multiple attempts needed for almost every scenario. The opening and closing scenarios are the most difficult — and most engaging — non-impossible scenarios I can remember. I was ...

Re: Scenario Review: SoF 7 - Outriding the Outriders

(1) What difficulty level and version of Wesnoth have you played the scenario on? — 1.11.13 Lord (most difficult) (2) How difficult did you find the scenario? (1-10) — 4/5 (3) How clear did you find the scenario objectives? — Quite clear, although I found myself searching for a signpost rather than ...

(1-10) — 2, though it was nerve-wracking (3) How clear did you find the scenario objectives? — very clear, based on the Walkthrough (4) How c...

Re: Wesnoth 1.11.12 (1.12 beta 3 — lost saved games

Are you sure that you are looking in your home directory? ~/Library/Application Support/ not /Library/Application Support/ ? If you are using Finder, the Library directory in your home directory might be hidden (depending on the version of OS X), but you can get there by pressing command-shift-g an...

Re: Wesnoth 1.11.12 (1.12 beta 3 — lost saved games

For the first time I can remember, when I updated Wesnoth recently (from 1.11.10 to 1.11.12), my preferences and saved games were deleted. I was about halfway through "The Scepter of Fire", and felt I was doing rather well, so this has been an inconvenience to me, though hardly a disaster...

Re: Scenario Review: SoF 4 - Gathering Materials

This scenario is still not working in version 1.11.8. The campaign has progressed one step, in that I can now get up to turn one of the scenario, but I can't move units. I can recruit or recall, but none of the five at start units will accept orders to move. Their little balls are green, and select...

Re: Scenario Review: SoF 4 - Gathering Materials

It's very very very likely the same problem that caused crashes/freezes with other scenarios using randomly generated maps, which will be fixed in 1.11.8 which ought to be coming out soon. This scenario is still not working in version 1.11.8. The campaign has progressed one step, in that I can now ...

Re: Scenario Review: SoF 4 - Gathering Materials

The scenario is broken in 1.11.1 - the scenario quits out and goes to the end screen after SoF 4 - Gathering Materials. This was similar to my experience with 1.11.7. I'm playing the Mac version, and it freezes on the map that shows your route to the battle site, which is to say before the actual s...

Re: V1.9/1.10 - 23 - End of War

I apologize for posting here, but for some reason I can't see how to start my own thread. I just finished the campaign playing on the hardest level v1.11 (started on 1.11.1/ended on 1.11.6). Since this thread IS about "End of War", I'll start by noting that I found it reasonably balanced. ...

The only question is whether you will yourself turn to a zombie in front of your computer in the meantime. :lol2: Excellent point, and thank you for the advice.

Re: Scenario Review: DiD 12 - Endless Night

Well... I can assure you that there's no such hidden mechanic in that scenario. Spectres deal arcane melee damage though, not blade, and outlaws like (almost) all humans have 20% arcane resistance. The damage calculation said times .5 for resistance, not .8 (I checked vs. Outlaws, Bandits and Trapp...
