Re: Magic Site Idea Thread
 
So we're just sticking with Path 4 as the limit, Endoperez? Was that what you were agreeing to?

Re: Magic Site Idea Thread
 
Yes, for the reasons Stavis L mentioned. As I said (at least in the post that vanished to the cyberspace), his thoughts about this mod match mine almost perfectly.

Your new sites won't work. Sites have maximum of 4 features, while both of yours have 8. In addition, I don't know how to price recruitable undead. Mohenjo-Doro could be done as a "Death mage may enter to summon X", but that can't be modded.

Thanks for the thanks :)

Perhaps this would be better as Terrain = Waste?

Secondly, and this is less of a concern for contributors, and more of one for you as you wrap them up; if there are *too* many scales boosting sites, it tends to mitigate the impact of Pretender scales. It could probably stand to be a lot larger percentage than is currently in the game, but imagine if e.g. 25% of sites had scales effects, and there are an average of ~2 sites per territory; it'll be quite a change. Just a thought. :smirk:

I'll probably change it. I did it that way to have it symmetrical with Wailing Aurora, but deserts should equal wastes gameplay-wise.

Desert of Ghostly Wails and Wailing Aurora were inspired by infrasound, btw. It's too low to be heard, but causes a general spooky feeling and might be responsible for some ghost stories.

Re: Magic Site Idea Thread
 
I love this thread.
Ive been considering requesting an addition to the SemiRandom project.
Not only for it to add player-created provinces, and player created gods for the AIs.. but also to generate a semi-random mod. Adding random nation choices as AIs, adding new spells, new items, and now this could be the basis of randomly adding new sites to the game.

Can a site do semi-events?

Name: Unleashed Death
Path: Death 4
Terrain: Cave
Freq: 2(rare)
Recruitables: (none)
Recruitable Commanders: (none)
Gems: (none)
Gold Bonus: (none)
Resource Bonus: (none)
Scales: -Order
When discovered it would release an Eater of the Dead.

Re: Magic Site Idea Thread
 
That would probably be an event (like the Troglodyte event and Deepest Cave). Sites don't do stuff when they're found.

Endless Depthless Bottomless.
Path: Water 4
Terrain: Ocean
Freq: 2 (Rare) Unique
Recruitables: Kraken
Recruitable Commanders: Kraken King
Gems: (none)
Gold Bonus: (none)
Resource Bonus: (none)
Scales: Sloth, Drain

For the purposes of this site, I would put Krakens at 90 gold, and Kraken kings at 270 gold.

HoneyBadger,

I really like this one, but I wanted to let you know that there is a site with recruitable Krakens called "Kraken Pit". This means they may already have a gold cost.
