outstanding Gimil making it this far looking forward to meeeting you on the first tee

[t.e.c]

i don't know if this has been mentioned before, but.. shouldn't the caption at the top read "you must fight to unite the land under one rule"

[t.e.c]

and while i'm at it, the first part should read "you are king of one of six great Fuedal empires"

[gimil]

t.e.c i dont really feel that your way of writing it offers anything better to how it sounds.

[rebelman]

have a few issues with the text in the legend, will post on this anon once I have a proposed solution.

Ill wait for your quries on te legends text.

OK, here are my suggestions regarding the legend:

Existing Text: You are king of one of Feudal six great empires.

Proposed Change: You are king of one of Feudal's six great empires

Logic: better grammar

===========================================

Existing Text: You must fight to unite the land under ones rule.

Proposed Change: You must fight to unite the land under your rule.

Logic: sounds better

============================================

Existing Text: You must fight to unite the land under ones rule.

Proposed Change: You must fight to unite the land under your rule.

Logic: sounds better

============================================

Existing Text: Every player begins in a single castle.

Proposed Change: none*

Logic: is this right ????? i assumed it would be the same as age of realms

==========================================

Existing Text: Victory is gained by conquering all castles

Proposed Change: none*

Logic: is this right ????? i assumed it would be the same as age of realms

==========================================

*will propose alternative wording for the two queries above if the statements are indeed incorrect

=============================================

Existing Text: Castle give a +5 automatically deployed bonus

Proposed Change: Each turn +5 is auto deployed on your castle(s)

Logic: easier to understand and reads better

============================================

Existing Text: Village gives a +3 automatically deployed bonus

Proposed Change: Each turn +3 is auto deployed on your village(s)

Logic: easier to understand and reads better

=========================================

old english font looks awesome!

Thanks rebelman, i will change these for you. And the other 2 quires are correct. Except AoM is the same as feudal, i developed this gameplay and i proposed the trilpgy for AoR (It was first called feudal war before KEYOGI and andy werent happy about this)

ok that what I thought so heres my proposed wording change for the other 2:

Existing Text: Every player begins in a single castle.

Proposed Change: Every player begins in their castle(s)

Logic: more accurate

==========================================

Existing Text: Victory is gained by conquering all castles

Proposed Change: victory can be gained by conquering and holding your opponent's castles

Logic: more accurate even if it is more wordy as there are other ways to gain victory and they do not need to conquer neutral castles to be victorious

==========================================

==========================================

the 1st ones fine, but hte objective is to hold ALL the castles, is not possible to program the objective to be only for the active castles.

[rebelman]

Gimil im certain you are wrong there i have often played age of might and not taken neutral castles but you know best

[gimil]

Ill confirm with yeti_C but in the XML this is what i had to write:

Code: Select all

<objective>
   <components>
      <component>Feudal Empire Castle</component>
      <component>Rebel Territory Castle</component>
      <component>The Great Kingdom Castle</component>
      <component>Barbarians Castle</component>
      <component>Realm of Might Castle</component>
      <component>Imperial Dynasty Castle</component>
   </components>
</objective>

As you see there is no way (That i know of) that tells me i can conqer 4 "active castles" to win. However with objectives you dont need to takethe objrctive to win the game. You can simply take out all your opponents(which requires there castle) THis may be where your getting mixed up.

[yeti_c]

Gimil is correct.

[gimil]

Gimil is correct.

result

[gimil]

Please take note that the army numbers are not where the XML has positioned the numbers, this is jsut to show the number of neutrals each terr will have.

[rebelman]

Gimil is correct.

C.

there's a first time for everything

[Kaplowitz]

Looks good gimil!

[gimil]

Gimil is correct.

there's a first time for everything

checky bas....

[gimil]

Looks good gimil!

all we are waiting for is yeti to do the XML and were done

[gimil]

Went and decided to take a trip down memory lane. . . .

We laughted. . . .
We cried . . . .
We made --'s life hell . . .

well done gimil
Well done andy.

in your face ---

Personally, I'm suprised anyone would find the idea appealing. We all work hard in the foundry to reduce the occurance of neutrals to an absolute minimum, but here we are with the wacky idea of a map full of neutrals.

I wish the map well, but I don't have high hopes... it's just my opinion.

I'm not too convinced the gameplay is going to be any good on this map to start with, the idea of all the neutrals creates a whole bunch of potentially bad outcomes. I wonder how the Suggestions & Bug Report forums going to cope when/if this is released. Wink

Keep on going pal - you know I love the idea of this map...

I don't quite understand this map, but I figure gimil will privately tutor me if needed.

I am starting to read this thread and once I have that done I will comment properly but at the moment I have one huge issue, this map looks like a computer generated image of a golf course and no matter how good graphics, gameplay etc. it has a big problem if it looks like a golf course in my mind anyway unless of course it is a golf course. Anyway as I said I'm posting this having yet to read this thread, once I have read it I will make some more reasoned and sensible observations hopefully.

golf course

i can already see the game log:

with a sharp tee shot DiM takes a good aproach for the south hole.

Gimil is up. he has a nicely laid put shot in front of him. a bit of concentration and he'll be the new champion of the feudal trophy.
he looks he takes a short swing and....and...and....it's in the bunker. an unbelieveble shot that went in the sand. filled with andger he goes to the bunker and he hits and hits and hits and hits. he start cursing and jumping around like a mad man. the officials have him removed from the field. now it's just DiM and the wind and the grass the ball and the 9 iron. an extremely difficult shot over the lake. the veterans say he should play it safe. but he's not that kind. he takes a chance and swings. and ladies and gentlemen we have a hole in one. incredible. he is the new feudal golf course champion.

you should see my massive 9 iron. then talk about hole in one

now take your itsy bitsy putter and go to the bunker.

gimil, stop insulting DIM, when you are guilty of the same thing, having a smaller club than mine.

Oh boy Oh boy, I look forward to play this map

Im not worried about XML. Yeti_C will come back adn save the day.

that is his job around CC

I came.
I saw.
I had to complain

Wonderful Update!

I am oh-so-psyched for this map.

i need to find the flash drive then i can upload the small changed needed. right now im working on bits of te XML.

i searched my place and my car and i dont have it, everyone else should the same though [/quote]

No it was the territory names. The yellow on green was difficult for me there for some reason. Sorry. I can read it just find now though, it may have been a temporary blindness or a brief stunt of retardation.

I think this map needs more (insert hardest thing to do with a flattened image). Anyone else agree?

although i do think some bunkers and flags may help (j/k - for explanation of this bo back a few pages)

Final Forge

---The Feudal War Map has reached the �Final Forge� Stage. I've revived this thread from the pits of the Foundry Furnace (okay, maybe not) and have examined the contents. Nearly every major concern has been addressed. If there are any other current concerns, please make your voice heard. If after a reasonable amount of time there has not been any objection or protest, the map will be deemed finished with the 'Foundry Brand' of approval and will be submitted for live play. As long as there is still discussion or posts that have yet to be commented on, the map will remain in Final Forge until said discussion has reached the conclusion that the map has reached its final and polished version.

Post questions and concerns if any.

[yeti_c]

Gimil - I need a map image without the numbers on top...
