Re: Holy War: Divine v0.5 - behold the glory of 28 holy sites!
 

minor bug report: in the Altar of Pain site, the zealot is a normal recruit troop, while the description makes it sound like he is a commander type? That, and he has inquisitor ability is what makes me believe he is suppose to be a commander. Just a heads up.

Love the mod too. Only found 2 of the holy sites so far but looking forward to finding more! :D

Re: Holy War: Divine v0.5 - behold the glory of 28 holy sites!
 

Yeah, Zealot is supposed to be a commander.

That's odd. The code appears to be right on the download. Have you patched to the newest Dom3 (3.23b) version?

It could be a bug relating to the #selectsite command, thought.

Re: Holy War: Divine v0.5 - behold the glory of 28 holy sites!
 

Yeah, so I wasn't patched up :D

works fine now, sry for the false alarm

Re: Holy War 0.7 - Complete!
 

New version.

Holy War is now somewhat complete. I scrapped a lot of stufffrommy orginal vision, but I just noticed that there was no need for them. Holy War: Divine + Holy War: Sacreds & Priests give the effect I was going for.

I also fiddled the magic sites in Holy War: Divine, they're now somewhat less common (I restricted the terrains they can appear in). My testing showed a rate that about 10% of sites were holy.

If you want view the units recruitable from magic sites, just copy the following piece of code to the Holy War Divine.dm file and start a game with MA marignon (just remember to erase the code afterwards!)

Re: Holy War 0.7 - Complete!
 

What is the thinking behind the changes to the costs of national sacreds?

(That's not implying I disagree, I haven't considered them, I'm just interested)

Re: Holy War 0.7 - Complete!
 

Since the magic sites & divine spells make holy magic and sacred units more accessible -> bless stragedies become better.

To counteract, I've increased/decreased some sacred unit gold costs by 10% (from CBM pricing). The decrease is for those capital only sucky sacred no one ever uses.

Re: Holy War 0.7 - Complete!
 

Cool mod, I especially like it how every order has some reason to join the god.


Some things:

Warrior Monks have an incredible defence value (25) and 3 attacks. Is this intended? Seems really powerful even without a bless.

There are no women in there. I think a female order or saint wouldn't hurt.

The sacred statue has some typos.

Re: Holy War 0.7 - Complete!
 

Completely irrelevant, but since this is done wouldn't it be 1.0 rather than .7?

Re: Holy War 0.7 - Complete!
 

Yeah, I paid extra attention to that. Glad to see that it paid of.

That's odd. At least on my end they have 17 (14 base + 3 from quaterstaff), as I intendend. Sounds like a mod conflict, you have any other mods on?
The warrior monks are melee monsters, but will fall quickly against archers and combat magic with their human hp's and zero prot. These guys also have troubles against high-prot units.

Well, Guardians of the First Breath & Tear are female. Didn't really give much tought to to gender equality when making this, I have to admit. I don't really have the need for additional units & sites now, but I probably could make the new "priest" unit into "priestess". All of the sites don't actually give the vanilla priest, because that unit is 'disabled' in HW: Priests & Sacreds.

Thanks for mentioning. Assassinations are hard.. to spell right.


I won't be adding any new units, yeah, but there probably is a lot to tweak. Think of it as being in some sort schroedinger state of betaness.

Re: Holy War 0.8 - Minor update
 

Ok, minor bug fixing update in preparation of the Unsanity MP game.

Changes from 0.7 -> 0.8
- "new" unit: The priestess. It's a slightly better priest, available from numerous sites
- Unique recruitables (relic, tablet & man on the silver mountain) got free spawn and got description fixes.
- Slight nerf to warrior monks
- The 'disabling' of indy priests in Holy War: sacred & priest now actually works.
