Changelist form 0.83 to 0.9
- Outrider to 0 gold (like in Sombre's mods)
- Fixed the black pixel in the Battle Pilgrim sprite
- Made Q.Knights poorleader again
- Removed "Call of the Quest", included "Grail Crusade"
- New King sprite (with special thanks to Calchet)
- New Hero: Beastmaster

This mod looks awesome, and I'm trying it for my very next game. My copy of Dom3 had been gathering dust for a while, but it's time to get back into it!

Minor quibble:
Code:

#hero1 2776 -- Fay Enchantress
#hero2 2777 -- The Last Druid
#hero3 2778 -- The King
#hero4 2780 -- The Black Knight

Those entries are all of the heroes that I see. Should the Beastmaster be added somewhere, perhaps as a multihero?

Thanks. Uploaded a new version to fix the issue. (this is why I don't jump to v1.00 right away!)

Thanks, you are quite awesome. Expect to see v0.92 before weekend.

Re: Bretonnia, Knights of the Grail v.0.92 - Now with grammar!
 
Okay new version. Hopefully this will be stable one.

I also went ahead and made "Bretonnian Secrets"-file, much like the one I made for dwarfs. It is "hidden" in the graphic folder and explains many of the hidden mechanics of Bretonnia in gameplay terms.

Burnsaber, you've done an impressive job in bringing the English language to medieval Britain.

Eh, Stavis L did all the work. I just implemented it.

Heh. I just got Sir Rond of R'donj as a Questing Knight. Naturally, he's my newest Prophet. :)

(Of course, considering the high mortality rate of my prophets, that might not be a good thing....)

rdonj November 25th, 2009 11:49 AM

Re: Bretonnia, Knights of the Grail v.0.92 - Now with grammar!
 
:D

At least he has a better chance as a prophet than as a random plebe. Maybe.
